"No (Middle East) peace can transpire with (Jewish) settlements and the wall," Abbas said

Mr. Abbas, we get it. We really do. You don't want peace.

[Spok]

"Abbas: There will be no peace until Israel tears down separation fence"

...and dissolves the state of Israel. He left that part out.

[Bahbah]

"Heavy security was draped around Abbas because of feared threats from militants opposed to peacemaking."

Those opposed to Abbas making peace really have nothing to worry about.

The only thing I would like to see Israel do is install big gun turrets on that wall and keep 'em smoking. (Well, that's not ALL I would like to see them do, but I don't want to get banned, so I will just leave it at that.)

[matchwood]

That guy sees life in a mirror - everything is exactly backward.

[CzarNicky]

And the Fence won't come down until there is peace.

[Publius6961]

Ummmm.
If I remember correctly, there sure wasn't a whole lot of "peace" going on before the fence started going up...

[anniegetyourgun]

"We tell our neighbors: 'No matter how many settlements, walls or obstacles you build, it will not bring you security or peace," Abbas said.

It should be assumed that this is a threat.

[Blast_Master]

No sir. There can be no peace as long as you harbor villains who use children and the mentally challenged to strap bombs on themselves to commit homicide in the name of "Allah".

"The only thing I would like to see Israel do is install big gun turrets on that wall and keep 'em smoking. (Well, that's not ALL I would like to see them do, but I don't want to get banned, so I will just leave it at that.)"

Sounds good to me. Let's build one just like it on our border with Mexico.

[Free and Armed]

Yeah, tear down the wall so they can destroy you better. Their idea of 'peace' is having the Jews exterminated or enslaved.

[aBootes]

PLO chief Mahmoud Abbas said on Wednesday there would be no peace until Israel tore [the fence] down.

Clearest evidence yet that the fence is effective.

"The only thing I would like to see Israel do is install big gun turrets on that wall and keep 'em smoking."

I'm with you!

In addition to that, design a system that would keep the turrets cool enough to never stop.

[broadsword]

I'm right with you, there, my friend!

[broadsword]

LOL! I like the way you think!

[mickie]

There have been one hell of a lot less suicide bombings since the fence went up!

Abbas: There will be no peace until Israel tears down separation fence

Peace = Pieces!

[taxesareforever]

Abbas: There will be no peace until Israel tears down separation fence

so that our terrorists will have free access to carry out their murderous sorties.

[libs_kma]

"No (Middle East) peace can transpire with (Jewish) settlements and the wall," Abbas said with his back to the separation fence around Qalqilyah near the West Bank's boundary with Israel."

Translation: "Unless you make it easier for us to kill you and your children on a daily basis, there will never be peace".

Just because the Arab Islamofacists are uneducated idiots, doesnt mean the rest of the world should be.

[Txsleuth]

I read it as a threat immediately.

Boy, he is sure trying to "win over the hearts and minds" of the Jews, isn't he. Maybe Bush could take some lessons from him in dealing with some of the Muslims.

I don't trust anyone that Arafat was close to---"the enemy of my enemy" kind of thing.
