Is that what you’d call a “Zip Zot”? lol :)(:
C-from-ECUSA, that fool from Virginia is nothing but a delusional, fang-less Tabbycat long past their prime and now spewing anti-Israel and anti-Semitic hate speech under the guise of ‘even handedness’ and ‘fairness’ and all of that crapola. They probably think Jimmy Carter is a swell guy.
Push them hard enough and maybe they’ll trot out some of that USS Liberty conspiratorial garbage.
They love to talk about the Founding Fathers and how we should just pull back to Fortress America and let the rest of the world go hang.
That’s an understandable sentiment, but it is nothing BUT sentiment, America is an integral part of the world community, and were it not for America, this planet would be in darkness right now, both politically, socially, spiritually and very possibly, *literally*.
America is engaged in world events, and our survival as a Nation depends not on emulating an ostrich and trying to hide our heads in the sand, but from facing and confronting the threat of Islamofascism just as we faced and destroyed the Nazis and their ilk in World War II.
America WON World War III without firing one missile or dropping one nuke, and the Soviet Union’s demise proves it.
We are now engaged in World War IV, and we better wake the Hell up and realize that our Muslim enemies have no intention of surrendering, no intention of negotiating, no intention of ‘peaceful coexistence’, and this is a fight to the death, and we better damn well win it or the life expectancy of human history will be measured in decades following the collapse of the West.
Israel is our ally, the only true democracy in the Middle East (Iraq is still too new as a liberated country to know if their experiment in democracy is going to work), and we need to stand shoulder to shoulder with every Israeli and tell our mutual Islamic foes that if they want to be martyrs and go meet their 72 virgins and a buffet table, that we’ll manufacture, deploy and fire as many bloody bullets dipped in pork fat at their pathetic pedophile-inspired ‘warriors’ as we can, and we will be sure they reach their eternal ‘reward’.
The weak sisters and ostriches can just go hide under their beds until the war is either won, or until the Muslim hordes pull them out from their hiding places and hack their heads off as they did to Nick Berg.
“If Detroit and Wyandotte were getting shelled daily by rockets launched from Windsor and Amherstberg, you bet your sweet ass!”
Sorry, but if that were the case, I don’t think we’d impose a full blockade (which includes food and medicine) on Canada, which would only serve to invite more rocket attacks.
I think we'd retaliate severely, defeating the enemy in detail. And you know perfectly well that food, medicine and gasoline flow from Israel daily, despite the fact that the palestinians attack both the border crossings and convoys. Just as you know perfectly well that the "blockade", aka maintaining border security which is a nations right, to the south is maintained by Egypt, not Israel. Except for weapons, of course, which cross in tunnels, all the better to kill Jews with. Save you propaganda for the ignorant who might believe it.
So what’s your foolproof guaranteed-to-work plan for stopping rocket attacks and suicide bombers, Mr. “Give Peace A Chance,” that doesn’t involve total warfare?
“And you know perfectly well that food, medicine and gasoline flow from Israel daily...”
Then I wonder why thousands of Gazans broke through the border to Egypt to buy food and supplies.
(USAToday, January 23, 2008) “Gazans poured into Egypt to buy food, fuel and other supplies that have become scarce due to the blockade. Egyptian border guards and Hamas police took no action as Palestinians hurried over the border and began returning with bags of food, boxes of cigarettes and plastic bottles of fuel.”
I guess they just did that for the news cameras.
Big-screen TV's are such humanitarian necessities.
“So what’s your foolproof guaranteed-to-work plan for stopping rocket attacks and suicide bombers, Mr. ‘Give Peace A Chance,’ that doesn’t involve total warfare?”
How about a two-state solution? I know it’s a novel idea, but it hasn’t been tried yet. Then Israel can put up a wall at their border if they feel they need to, just as long as they have one on their own defined border (as in “defined borders” like all other nations have) and not a wall encroaching on Palestinian land.
“Big-screen TV’s are such humanitarian necessities.”
Perhaps to you, but big-screen TVs were not mentioned in the article.
Jesus wasn’t a messiah and therein lies your delusions.
For it was written long before Jesus’s arrival that the Messiah would herald G-d’s kingdom on earth.
So where is it?
Save your BS for someone else, you know perfectly well why, there were numerous threads at the time. It was orchestrated by Hamas, a foreign terrorist group whose tactics you apparently have sympathy for.
Like most terrorist groups, they've no respect for sovereignty, either Egypts or Israels. You've expressed disrespect for Israel, I don't know where you stand on Egypt, maybe you'll weigh in now.
Despite their tolerance for arms smuggling, Egypt has condemned the breach. They have strengthened the police presence on the border, which is closed. Period. To everything including humanitarian shipments. And have issued shoot to kill orders to their border guards.
Do you support Egypts shoot to kill order? So there's no question, I do. I'd support the same directive on our borders were there a terror threat, and dare I say I'd support it on Israel's, where terror attacks are a daily occurance.
Your double standards are clear. When you look in a mirror, do you see two tabsternagers?

“It was orchestrated by Hamas...”
Speaking of BS, I know you can’t really be serious.
I just figured that he’d probably get the point better if his post was refuted with the same kind of logic.
:-P
Of course not, they simply engineered the breakthrough, then fired on Egyptian troops attempting to close the breach.
Those goodly, kind Jewkillers of Hamas, they had nothing at all to do with it. If they dinged a few Egyptians in the process, so what, more martyrs.
They have nothing at all to do with the attacks on the Israeli border posts either. Nor on the fuel convoys last week. And no, Israel doesn't supply electricity and fuel, any more than they allow food and medicine to pass. Or allow ill Gaza residents to Israel for treatment.
Those Jews, they're barbarians.
Hamas, now there's a fine, upstanding lot of fellows, worthy of your support and admiration.
As you know, you’re wasting your time with facts. The evil ones within Israel are to blame. And their neocon allies.
Oh, so you meant the actual breakthrough of the border was engineered by Hamas, which wouldn’t surprise me, but you did not mean that the thousands of Gazan civilians who ran across the border to buy food and supplies were just told by Hamas to do that for the news cameras.
So you’re not claiming, then, that there has not been a blockade by Israel on the Gaza strip as collective punishment, which is in violation of international law.
