Well, so much for General Zinni. How the Israelis resist killing Arafat, even at the behest of our country, is beyond my ability to comprehend.

Would we kill Arafat if he was responsible for this in America? You bet your boots we would.

The vermin who did this need to be exterminated. Why doesn't Sharon turn one Arab city into Dresden as a demonstration project?

Yes it is sad and infuriating. I visted Jerusalem last July and it breaks my heart to see this happening. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Bush is being very liberal in regards to the suicide bombings. He should allow Sharon to start nuking the West Bank.

Better, surround the Palestinian funerals and kill everyone that attends. That will quickly eliminate most of the suiciders.

Nah. After the first one, no Arab would be safe in a public place.

Maybe, but the supply of true believers here who can blend into the landscape are few comparatively. Having said that, I think Israel will be taking off the gloves now and there is nothing that Presidnet Bush can or will do to stop it.

The hundred to 1 rule needs to be invoked.
