As I said, I'm sick to death of hearing about the plight of the Palestinian people, they've brought bit of hardship they face on themselves.

Was it David Ben-Gurion who said that they never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity?

Obviously the actual goal (you know, that "root causes" stuff, LOL) has nothing to do with "statehood for the downtrodden palestinians". It's all about destroying Israel and killing the Jews.

Back in the early days of this madness, the Arabs basically ordered the palies to leave their homes and become "refugees". Then, they whine about being "refugees. The "refugee camps" we hear about would in any other venue be called "cities". They're not a bunch of tents and camel-stands, they're actual cities, designated as "refugee camps."

I was once told by a Palestinian that "as the Jews are the 'kicking boys' of Europe, the Palestinians are the 'kicking boys' of the Arabs."

Just as the "Persians" look down their noses in contempt at the Arabs, the Arabs despise the Palestinans. They are "useful idiots", only insofar as they serve as a convenient thorn in Israel's side.

Look at a map, observe the vast millions of square miles of vacant Arab land -- land that could easily be used to create a "Palestinian homeland", without causing ANY "loss" to the "grantor states." But, that's not going to happen, because it would be a real solution.

The goal is NOT to "find a solution." The goal is to nurse "the problem" along until it becomes sufficient for the destruction of Israel.

Perhaps the biggest tragedy of all is that the ignorant Palestinians allow themselves to be played, enthusiastically becoming "one-shot cannon fodder" for those who really despise them.

Israel has been far kinder, more benevolent, fairer, and merciful to "The Palestinians" than any Arab nation.

Good morning.....good news all around.

ConservativeMan55,

I am sorry I don't get why you posted this to me. My only post on this thread was post 458. Can you explain? Did I miss something?

[ConservativeMan55]

I think the focus now needs to be on WHO took these two men?

The hotel they showed up at..must not be that far from where they were held....

The tape was released..and very soon after they were released...

[Don Joe]

If you feel that the "coerced conversion" is an "integral" part of this story, why don't you make your own little thread about it. I'm sure I can think of at least three people who would love to join you there.

The rest of your post is mumbo-jumbo-lie-a. LOL

Well if YOU "feel that" way, then take it to Fox ("LOL"), since THEY had been repeating it every two or three minutes (during the time they were doing 100% coverage of the story).

THEY gave the forced conversion MUCH more coverage than ANYONE here.

Just out of curiosity, why do you think that the forced conversion -- the apparent "critical hoop" they had to jump through before they'd be released -- is NOT a critical part of this story? And why are you so hostile to those who even mention it, even to the point that you stamp your feet and demand that they leave the thread?

Good grief. Must be the tantrum hour or something.

[ConservativeMan55]

Not meant to be directed at you..just posted it..didn't even pay attention to who it was to lol

[Chena]

Yes, we are taught to defend ourselves and our loved ones from evil. I firmly believe that. Our son learned that lesson too. He fought in Iraq and he had fellow soldiers who happened to be Muslim, fighting right by his side. Battle buddies. It's important to know who the enemy is, and equally important to know who the enemy isn't. Within every religion known to man, there are extremists. Extremists tend to be dangerous one way or another no matter what religion they belong to. LOL :)

Yours was the last post when Conservativeman posted his picture.

As I said, you must not have seen the original post to whcih freepers took exception.

Steve said they were close to the PA authority headquarters, did he not? Or some official building, when he and Olaf were accosted by gunmen who took them away. They were just right there, it seems, in the midst of what passes for Palestianian "officialdom", when this whole thing went down.

[ordi]

Well that explains it. Thanks!

I've never understood the position of Germans who lived during the Nazi reign. Anti-Jewish propaganda, Jewish hatred and complete admittance by the Nazi party of plans to exterminate all Jews from Germany followed by the rest of the world wasn't exactly hid. Now many claim they didn't realize what was happening.

I know most Germans didn't know about the concentration camps, their location or what was actually happening there since it wasn't released by the Nazi party, but just what did the German population think was happening to the Jews being forced out of Germany in droves?

What about those in Austria, Romania and Poland who lived near the camps and/or near the train lines bringing Jews to them.

I wasn't around then, I've only personally known one person who lived in Germany during the Nazi reign and she was a little girl at the time. Her claim is she and her family didn't know what was happening.

I honestly do not know what to believe on that issue.

But then, I can't understand those who claim Islam is some benign religion of peace with only a small sect of radical fundamentalists who give it a bad name.

Pick 100 terrorist acts worldwide in the last 10 years and you'll find 99 of them were committed by Muslims. Yet we still find those who honestly believe Muslims do not constitute a threat to the world.

[ConservativeMan55]

I dont they were taken very far..

There have been reports they were kidnapped by the security services themselves.

[rhombus]

Whether Chrstian or Islamic... religious extremists are deranged by definition.

Amen to that

[DCPatriot]

I doubt very much anyone is looking for the kidnappers.

They (Hamas) can police themselves

Care to link it? I am confused.

PS: The rest of your post is mumbo-jumbo-lie-a.

Nice cheap shot, calling me a liar and trying to cloak it in cloyingly coy wordplay.

Tells me all I need to know...
