Freeoples Thread 301

[Mo1]

What is a Freeople?? ....
A Freeople - it's kind of a long, evolving story. But I'll give it a shot. Last year, a whole bunch of us were banned from another site for what seemed to be pretty arbitrary reasons, like committing the sin of addressing a post to another poster. Many of us found our way over here, and a "reunion" thread was begun. After a few threads, the name became "You People" because of the way we had been addressed by the staff on the other site. The thread name evolved to Freeoples, for People who Freep. I think. Anyway, it has been evolving, we discuss politics, post links to stories that are pushing our buttons, have heated discussions on issues of the day, have friendly discussions, joke around, etc. I hope you drop by now and then and join us
Thanks .38sw

Is it lunchtime yet?

[Mo1]

For me it is ... Where is Loddy with lunch

These poor, abused Palestinians are the folk who cheered and danced in the streets of their "refugee camps" (filthy towns) when the United States was attacked by terrorists - and they cheer every time Israel is attacked by a suicide bomber.

I know who these people are .. what they have done and what they are capable of doing ..

It's shocking that "news reporters" around the world give them good sympathetic press, as if they are innocent and just want peace. They hands are bloody, with American's and Israel's and their own children's blood dripping as they celebrate.

Horrible crime:

I saw that thread ... it is so sad ..

[Mo1]

as if they are innocent and just want peace.

I didn't say the Pals were innocent .. I was just saying the Isreal needs to be a little careful

and so that some don't misunderstand .. I do believe Isreal has every right to protect their people and their country

G'day all. Although the news of the day is surely disheartening. Prayers up for mankind in general.

I saw the cover of Newsweek in the store this morning - it is a combined picture of two girls - one a teenage Palestinian who murdered several people when she blew herself up in Israel, and the other an Israeli girl who was one of the victims.
It was very disturbing to see these two portrayed as equals on the cover. I can see the Palestinians getting their hands on this magazine, ripping off the side with the Israeli girl's picture and posting the cover on their walls to honor the murderer and encourage their own kids to do the same thing.
Our "free press" is dominated by MORONS and LIARS who profit on the misery they perpetuate with their propaganda.

I agree many in the press are Morons but I still rather hear all sides of the story and make my own opinion ..

mmm, a big juicy cheeseburger - thanks Loddy.

[lodwick]

Good NR link - thanks.

[ValerieUSA]

I don't care about hearing "sides" - that's propaganda. I want the TRUTH and FACTS reported - then decide for myself what is going on.

[ValerieUSA]

Hello Nully - we're over here now!

[ValerieUSA]

I do wish that my own comments would stop showing up as New posts to you on the latest posts pages.

Val I don't doubt that the Pals are playing this up big time .. that was not my point

My point is that as I sit here and watch Fox News the Reporters admit they can't not prove what the Pals are saying .. but they do see alot mashed up building

My point was that even though these building could have been rigged with bombs and I don't doubt that .. Isreal needs to be careful of the PR that it is getting .. it could backfire on them

Val .. you remember the story Swervie mentioned about the King James Hotel

Well when I did some research on it and I mentioned there were several different versions .. there was Isreal's version and then there was British version and between the two I was able to find that it all steamed around a radial group called Ingus (sp?)
