"Israel must remove the two blue stripes from its national flag", Zahar said. "The stripes are symbols of occupation – they signify Israel's borders, stretching from the River Euphrates to the River Nile."

That's bogus. They don't represent that at all.

The blue stripes on the Israli flag were inspired by the stripes on the tallit (prayer shawl).

You're right. The Palestinians are so out there they sound almost as nuts a member on DU. This sounds like a conspiracy theory they would believe whole heartedly.

Absolutely, and it was G-d who designed the prayer shaw...I shudder to think what will happen to those who try to remove it...

For this is what the Lord Almighty says: "After He has honored me and has sent me against the nations that have plundered you - for whoever touches you touches the apple of His eye - I will surely raise my hand against them so that their slaves will plunder them. Then you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me. Shout and be glad, O Daughter of Zion...
