Here's a sample of what the Palis are hawking in the West Bank these days. All the better to turn the kids into human bombs. Sometimes I think their twisted culture is beyond repair.

Then there's:

Those look like they would make good targets out at the range.

They are rapidly spiraling into a culturraly terminal state.

Oh, please tell me it's a gag.

Never mind -- I know it's not. And it's both heartbreaking and infuriating.

Charming people.

At least some man-on-the-street inteviews had Turkish Muslims condeming terrorism.

A very hopeful sign, IMHO...

Funny. Not one cry of 'child abuse' from the goo-goo Liberals...oh, I forgot; third world savages are too pure to engage in 'child abuse'...

The candy "hand grenades" are for real, but the Osama figure was mass-produced in Asia and sold on the streets of Hong Kong.

I didn't think for one second they were made in Gaza. They don't DO manufacturing (except for rockets and suicide belts). Strictly a destroy only mentality.

Lovely. Palis sure are victims, and Islam sure is the Religion of Peace, Love and Tolorance ® I got SUCH a case of the warm fuzzies I wanna rush right out, burn an American flag and throw myself under a moving bulldozer to save some of the dear little terrorists...

LOL...they sure would! I was going to show the pic to hubby, but your post made me change my mind...he'd have the same thought and want one.
