OMG no they didn't!

It is definitely time to kick these walking rectums off our soil.

I just finished watching Brit Hume on FOX NEWS
The BULK of his show was on Arafat
The LEAD story was on Arafat
Arafat casket being carried by French soldiers
About 2 minutes, or less dedicated to Veteran's

I will be emailing Fox News and complaining about this. I am really disgusted by this. I could care less about Arafat.

Well, you know that Bush ordered Powell not to have anything to do with Arafat.

Thank God for President Bush.

But you continue to naiviely assume that Arafat's cause was Palestinian statehood (which is indeed a just cause), not the destruction of Israel and a perpetual state of war

___How can I say it differently? Arafat was corrupt but the cause that he was associated with had merit...if the association was
fake, maybe so, but he was still
associated with it---and by itself
it is a cause which has merit...so says President Bush and me, Bushbacker..so the UN can honor that cause without honoring Arafat

"Arafat was corrupt...."

That's putting it mildly. He was a terrorist. ....no less of one than Hussein and bin Laden, in fact.

"it is a cause which has merit...so says President Bush and me, Bushbacker"

lol....yeah, I get it that you support the Prez. You've told me three times now, and your username kinda gives it away. I support him too.

".....so the UN can honor that cause without honoring Arafat"

Lowering the UN flag to half-staff on the day of Arafat's death honors the man himself, and that man was a terrorist hellbent on the destruction of Israel (and a man who has ordered the death of many American citizens). If the UN wants to honor the Palestinian cause there are plenty of better ways of doing it than honoring a man who cared not one whit for peace.

___False...they were associated with evil causes, and Arafat (even
if he had ulterior motives) was associated with a meritorious cause.

____And he supports a Palestinian
state, at peace with Israel...I jjust keep mentioning his because I don't think people on this group
want such a state and there is a lot of Arab-hating and Islam-bashing here...so it's always necessary to point that Bush's views are contrary to that.

___Well, I think the flag can also be construed as acknowledging the cause...but why all this focus on Arafat and a UN flag...what does this have to do with American conservatism???

AArafat's dead...now there's a chance for peace, which--if it happens---will relieve the US of
constantly getting dragged into a conflict which is truly separate from our war against global terror.

The thing I find disgusting, is that a Union Hall for Grips, IASTE, in our community refused to hang their flag at half staff when Reagan died.

The US flag in front of my dorm at the University of Michigan was at half-mast today. Knowing how liberal U of M is the flag was at half-mast for Arafat, which is absolutely disgusting.

Good picture. I hope the guy's shoes weren't soiled by the rag on the ground.

Well put -- in a nutshell.

The charlatan Arafat betrayed his own people and took them and the UN to the cleaners (and the UN and France are NOT about to admit they were flim-flammed by Arafat for 30 years, are they?)
