Bastards.

Gotta love their timing, though -- the day before the vaunted "World Court" is supposed to have a blatantly biased "trial" vs. Israel building the fence.

Poor widdle so-called palis don't like the inconvenience?! Screw them. Maybe when they act like humans, the rest of us will treat them as such.

[NYC GOP Chick]

Oh, and stay safe there!

"WHEN will it end??????"

IT WILL END WHEN...ISRAEL and THE USA GO into Gaza, Ramallah and other TERRORIST HOT BED/Sewer Holes in ISRAEL and COMPLETELY WIPE OUT THE ISLAMA - NAZI ENEMY.

THAT'S WHEN THE SENSLESS MURDER of INNOCENT ISRAELIS and AMERICANS WILL END!

Israel doesn't need us to go in there and help her with that; she just needs our government (esp. Abu Powell and the Statist Department) to SHUT THE HELL UP and let her do what she has to do, with none of the b.s. bellyaching about the f-ing "road map."

Jerusalem bombing attack: Fatah claims, Hamas hails, PA condemns

At least seven people were killed and at least 60 people were wounded Sunday morning, 11 of them seriously, in an explosion on a crowded bus in west Jerusalem. The blast took place at around 8:30 a.m. (local time).

Hours after the attack, the military wing of the Fatah – the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades have claimed this attack.

According to Palestinian sources, Mohammed Za'ul, 23, from the Hussan village near Bethlehem, carried out the suicide bombing attack. The group said the attack in Jerusalem came in response for the latest Israeli raid on Gaza Strip and the construction of the West Bank fence.

Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei [Abu Ala] condemned the act in a statement and called for "an immediate halt to these actions," which gives Israel an excuse for continuing building the barrier and carrying out raids against Palestinians.

Palestinian Cabinet minister Saeb Erekat, for his part, said he condemned the attack and called on, "the United States to step up its efforts to revive the peace process, because it's the only way to break the cycle of violence."

In a statement posted on its Web site, Hamas demanded Israelis leave all of Israel, "if not, they will face the same destiny of those Zionists who were attacked in the martyrdom operation in Jerusalem today."

Israeli officials said the explosion proved the need for the so-called "separation fence" it was building in the West Bank.

"This attack in Jerusalem proves without a shadow of a doubt the need for Israel's security fence. Anyone who thinks otherwise is deluding himself," said David Baker, an official in Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's office on Sunday.

Parliament member Aryeh Eldad, from the extreme right-wing National Union party called for the deportation of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. "We must dismantle the Palestinian Authority, expel its leaders and collect all their weapons", Eldad said.

United Nations Middle East envoy Terje Roed-Larsen condemned the attack, which he called a "war crime". "First of all my thoughts go to the victims of this war crime and their families," he said, according to the AFP.

"We urge the Palestinian Authority to avoid such terrorist attacks. PA has to ensure that such terrorists are arrested and judged."

Oh, boo fricking hoo. The problem is that these savages don't want peace, understanding, love and all that gooey hippie crap -- they just want to convert or kill all of us infidels.

And the difference between them and fundamentalists of other religions is that the wackos in Christianity, Judaism, etc., are strongly repudiated by the rest of the religion, while that just doesn't not happen with most Muslims.

When they stop talking about terrorism in "Yes, it's horrible, BUT..." terms, *then* they'll deserve at least a modicum of respect.

So right now, all I can assume is that you're incredibly naive, or an islamofascist sympathizer. Only those two types of individuals can even attempt to make moral equivalences with the rest of the world's religions.

Israel cannot take action against the terrorists due to the pressures coming from the US

The US [government] should shut the %$#@ up and let Israel defend herself by any means necessary.

[C-Note]

No problem. How does condescending, arrogant and mis-informed sound for starters?

"The United States does not support either the elimination or the exile of Mr. Arafat," Powell said.

Is Powell the creator of this policy or just the mouthpiece? Whichever it is, he needs to shut up! AND YES I TOO AM CRYING AND MAD AS HELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Indie]

believe that day is approaching. Rapidly approaching. For all I know, today is that day.

I pray you are right and may the day be "as bright as a thousand suns" if you catch my drift.

If it happens here again, I can assure you "we the people" won't wait for the government to close the border or arrest the silent acceptors of the atrocity...although those folks will wish the government had done something when they see what "the people" can dish out. [We are supposed to be the government anyway but our representatives no longer do our will, as they have been bought off by corporate interests].

The American PEOPLE have much patience as well...and our line too is rapidly being approached. God bless all the victims and families and may God watch over Israel and the United States of America.

I agree, but I think Israel fears losing US support, especially in the UN, which without US veto could send UN peacekeepers into Israel.

The UN is on the side of evil anyway. When will we ever learn..~sigh~

[Chris Talk]

Please, may someone in Israel rise up and do unto Amalek what God says to do to them. Ignore wimpy world-socialist US government.

Level the Temple Mount structures. Level Hebron or Ram-allah.

Israel will never be loved by Muslims, so let them FEAR it then.

[Chris Talk]

Idiots at the Hague now have what they wanted, more dead Jews.

"I do not confuse individuals who follow a faith with a handful of radicals who will justify killing and violence in the name of "religion". Such individuals can be found in every organized religion that exists - including Christianity."

Really? Which oil-rich country or countries use their largesse to set up special indoctrination "schools" to train Christian children form an early age to be genocidal human bombs, then?
