The billions that Arafat and the PLA scammed from the West would put Jesse Jackson to shame.

Wherever islam goes, chaos and failed societies follow.

To Ms. Abu Zneid, a long-time women's-rights advocate in this East Jerusalem slum, everything around her is proof of how close Palestinian society is to collapsing into complete chaos.

LOL! They relished their leader Yassir Arafat, Al Aqsa Brigades and Hamas bringing chaos to Israel via suicide bombings and terrorism. It all backfired on these dupes. I don't wish them well. Their hell is their own creation. 

Israel's reaction has been to separate from these critters with a security fence and wall. The less one has to do with the incorrigibly stupid, the better

Broker, I want to short 100000000000 shares of "Palestinians" (symbol-S**T) at the market.

Well it was their choice to live like animals!

Oh my...this bit IS rich...

JERUSALEM -- Jihad Abu Zneid sighs deeply as she picks her way through the potholed streets of the Shuafat Palestinian refugee camp. The uncollected garbage is ankle high and children carrying startlingly real-looking toy guns sprint past her in packs, playing a game of "Arabs and Israelis" based on everyday life here

First, let me suggest that the PaleSimians start by PICKING UP THE GARBAGE...or are they waiting for the Dhimmis and the U.N. to do it?

How DOES this game work? Don't the PaleSimians claim that the Joooooos are committing genocide? Are the "Israelis" in the game armed? And if so, what kid gets to be the F-16, or the Attack Helo...or the Merkava Tank?

So who actually has the guns in this game? If the PaleSimian side does, isn't that proof that they use Military force and Tactics against Israel, as well as Terrorist tactics?

And how often do these l'il PaleSimian terrorists-in-training blow up in the game?

I guess the PaleSimians are "Jihad Joe"!

"I ask myself every day where we are going, what kind of state we are going to build," Ms. Abu Zneid says grimly, her high-heeled boots slipping a bit on pavement red with blood from animals slaughtered this week for the feast Eid al-Adha...

Well, honey, that sentence sort of speaks for itself, IMHO...

I'm a contrarian. Let Hamas form the government. Fatah is so weak Abbas can never make a deal on any acceptable terms; Hamas wouldn't allow it. Fatah can't or won't disarm Hamas. So, we have to deal with Hamas in any event, if a deal can be made. Bring them out in the open and make them spell out their terms or make it clear to the Western elites and their own people that they will never make peace. Make them responsible for economic development and picking up the garbage. See if they really are incorruptible. If they don't measure up, and I doubt they will, their popularity will plummet.

If they refuse to make peace, finish the wall. Israel would be in no worse position than it is now. And if that's how things work out; yes, indeed, Mrs. Abu Zneid, welcome to Hell.

Just keep 'em walled off, like in Gaza. They'll kill each other off in a generation.

Fatah, Hamas, BarfGouli, Abbas, these are the building blocks of Palestine, and every one of them is nothing but terrorists. Terrorists do not build, they murders and cause terror. You cannot build houses with fire, and you can not build a society with terrorists.

The Arabs bet their souls, and lost. I pity them.

[American in Israel]

but was considering voting for the Islamists just to "spite" Fatah. "They [Hamas] must be better than what we have now."

"...for from the viper shall come a dragon." (Isaiah 14:29) This is the fufillment of the prophecy of the destruction of the Palestinians, their evolvement into hell.

The prophecy is stunning, it speaks of their first government here in the land as the Grand Mufti as a serpent, from its roots comes his nephew Yassar Araphat the Viper, and from the Viper, a firey flying serpant, the Dragon. These stupid Arabs do not realize that when you vote, you get what you vote for. Democracy is no joke, and a vote for spite will cut off their nose.
