The Palis don't have to settle for even 99% . … they'll get it all now.

The entire Arab world just offered peace [with US approval] -- coupled with Arafat's approval and declaration of a cease fire -- and what does your Zionist Sharon do. He declares war and start shooting up the place!! Smart boy - not. Israel was just condemned by the entire world including the United States. Spin it anyway you like -- Israel probably cannot survive this mistake.

The National Catholic Reporter has a article about how the deal was not such a good deal.

They arrive at that conclusion by counting the entire nation of Israel as land which belongs to the Palestanians.

"In the 1993 Oslo Agreement, by recognizing Israel’s right to exist, Palestinians already gave up 78 percent of their land"

They are probably playing a game with the land of the Palestinian Mandate. Pretending the Arabs/Pallies were supposed to get it all.

National Brotherhood Week by Tom Lehrer
Sample of song
Collection at Amazon

 

National Brotherhood Week by Tom Lehrer

One week of every year is designated National Brotherhood Week. This is just one of many such weeks honoring various worthy causes. One of my favorites is National Make-fun-of-the-handicapped Week which Frank Fontaine and Jerry Lewis are in charge of as you know. During National Brotherhood Week various special events are arranged to drive home the message of brotherhood. This year, for example, on the first day of the week Malcolm X was killed which gives you an idea of how effective the whole thing is. I'm sure we all agree that we ought to love one another and I know there are people in the world that do not love their fellow human beings and I hate people like that. Here's a song about National Brotherhood Week.

Oh, the white folks hate the black folks,
And the black folks hate the white folks.
To hate all but the right folks
Is an old established rule.

But during National Brotherhood Week, National Brotherhood Week,
Lena Horne and Sheriff Clark are dancing cheek to cheek.
It's fun to eulogize
The people you despise,
As long as you don't let 'em in your school.

Oh, the poor folks hate the rich folks,
And the rich folks hate the poor folks.
All of my folks hate all of your folks,
It's American as apple pie.

But during National Brotherhood Week, National Brotherhood Week,
New Yorkers love the Puerto Ricans 'cause it's very chic.
Step up and shake the hand
Of someone you can't stand.
You can tolerate him if you try.

Oh, the Protestants hate the Catholics,
And the Catholics hate the Protestants,
And the Hindus hate the Moslems,
And everybody hates the Jews.

But during National Brotherhood Week, National Brotherhood Week,
It's National Everyone-smile-at-one-another-hood Week.
Be nice to people who
Are inferior to you.
It's only for a week, so have no fear.
Be grateful that it doesn't last all year!

The Jews are hated because........they said,
"Let his blood be upon us and our childern"!

But they are still God's chosen people, that have been blinded for a season!

No. It's the beast of Arab Islamic fascists which beast ("palestinians") has its apologists here on FR, the International bums aka as Eurotrash; and other assorted apologists for terrorism.

I believe that the folks who said that all died some time ago. And whatever they may have said, God had already long since made known his opinion of ancestral curses:

Ezekiel 18

1 The word of the LORD came unto me again, saying,

2 What mean ye, that ye use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes, and the children's teeth are set on edge?

3 As I live, saith the Lord GOD, ye shall not have occasion any more to use this proverb in Israel....

20 The soul that sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon him.

Your insane!!! HAHAHAHA!!

The US will never send in one American soldier to fight with arabs against the Israelis in the west bank.

Stop posting your dreams from last night.

Are you hoping AraFAG is going to call you before his cell phone battery runs out?

Plllleeeeassse!!

The arabs on the west bank have the highest birth rate in the middle east. why is that?

Where are the ovens?

You and your terrorist loving friends can go and post on Hamas.org.

The Israelis give the arabs jobs and money. They live better then all there arab brothers around them.

Open your eyes and see, you blind Jew hating bag of evil.
