As the hunger strike began, the most prominent Palestinian prisoner was working on a smooth transition in the Gaza Strip (news - web sites) after Israel's planned withdrawal next year.

How in the hell can Israel allow this terrorist to direct these groups from his prison cell. Israel needs to tell the UN to pack sand and put a end to this PC crap.

this would mean that thousands of terrorists would starve....works for me....

Don't worry Israel will relase the thug for some Israeli businessman. None of it makes sense to me.

[dila813]

Me too, they should have charged the Palestinian Government with their food from the start.

LOL! Forget it. Yossi Beilin and his leftist metrosexual traveling show will be arriving soon to demand that his countrymen release these poor starving Palestinians as a sign of good will.

I don't understand sometimes how Israel can kick so much butt then turn around and fall on their sword. It really makes me scratch my head. I know it is the liberals in Israel causing this nonsense, but why they put up with this political nonsense makes me just pause trying to figure this out because their people are dieing and they can't shake this PC crap.

[John Lenin]

It's like the movie Saving Private Ryan, you go soft and let a killer escape and he comes back and puts a bullet in your head.

Take pity on Israel. They have lost their way.

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel declared psychological war on hunger-striking Palestinian prisoners on Monday, saying it would barbecue meat outside their cells to try to break their will

The article make no mention of what these prisoners have done. Why not?

In the prisons here, those who refuse to eat are subject to mandatory intravenous feeding. Just strap them to a gurney and plug them in -- with hog renderin's in the bag. So much for your martyrdom and the 72 virgins.

bon apetit!

The only true BBQ is the .....

PIG!

[dila813]

good idea, but too many to plug in to feed. I would just say that we respect your decision to conduct a food strike so therefore we will only serve pork bbq for the next year in your honor.

[walford]

[dila813]

Don't let them have any liquids either.

Sounds like the only liquid on the menu is Pork Blood, we need to keep their Iron up

LOL ... You are killing me!@

[GeronL]

yummy

[walford]

I understand that the Israelis, being Jews, cannot handle pork either, so I propose having the next American BBQ contest just outside the fence of the prison camp.

Just picture that -- a big group of heavily armed good ole boys [and gals] grillin' up a whole mess of char-grilled pork products.

I may be a Virginian, but I do appreciate a good North Carolina barbecue with cole slaw and corn bread -- which must have pork cracklin' baked in to have the right flavor. Mmmm! Mmmm!
