My thoughts as well, and they do so much in so little time, I wonder what the word success, means to them. Like allowing first graders to think the twin towers attack was some horrible accident, instead of teaching the truth, which I'm sure they learned as soon as they were out of steve's reality class. One wonders what black hole these types came from, and why they cannot see the forest for the trees.

Point being that these IDIOTNOBRAINSTUPIDMORMONS have NEVER been in the middle of a war. I bet you that the first cult idiot who is insane enough to get in the way of gun fire and is ACCIDENTALLY gun down will make the rest put their tails between their legs and make a bee line to the nearest RAT hole! That'll teach them!

>>...Their goals include removing Israeli roadblocks around Palestinian towns, observing Israeli-controlled checkpoints, ...<<

Their REAL goal is to get their names in the newspapaper and impress their liberal friends.

I'd be willing to bet that once they get over there and have a few rounds whiz by thier heads, they'll soil themselves and spend the rest of the week cowering in their hotel room.

kewl... cancel their visa's and refuse to honor their passports when they TRY to re-enter... Turn them into what they wanna be. . . men and women without a country.

Well as far as i am concerned they are a cult. I run a couple of stories about their antics a few times each year here at a radio station in Pittsburgh. Usually about this time of year ( now that I think of it most likely it's around May Day) they get their kids to march to the state prisoner with flowers for those on death row.

Here's a link to their "official website".

Bruderhoff

and they have some kind of working agreement with Pastors for Peace and The Caravan For The Children Of Cuba!

BTW I think Bruderhof is usually spelled with one "f" but I've always used two.

I tend to think of them as mildly militant and totally misguided Amish.

I guess Mr. Quester and his friends want to give the Palestinian children some time off from their human shield duties, eh?

TULKARM, WEST BANK -- In a rare letter of protest sent this week to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, a Palestinian women's group demanded that the Palestinian Authority stop using children as cannon fodder.

''Our children are being sent into the streets to face heavily armed Israeli soldiers,'' said the letter from the Tulkarm Women's Union -- a local branch of the Palestinian Women's Union, a trade-union group that promotes the status of women in the Palestinian Authority.

''The Palestinian Authority must put an end to this phenomenon. We urge you to issue instructions to your police force to stop sending innocent children to their death.''

Send all the lefties there. We will have a nicer country once the IDF gets through with them.

[wattsmag2]

Take our idiots, please.

[My Favorite Headache]

Bye! Hope life was nice for you! Go see how good you have it here and be sure to stop off at one of those downtown Tel Aviv or Bethlehem Cafe's or Pizza shops!

[LarryLied]

I'm gonna email some of Arafat's men that Quester's group is actually a CIA front.

LOL!...you might consider sending that sentiment to some lefties too. They are paranoid as can be right now. Many of them think Ramsey Clark is a deep cover CIA spook. The more time they spend figuring out who is who and what is what in their circles, the less time they have to mess with us.

These idiots are of the same mind set as Jane Fonda during the Vietnam War>

If I live to be 150 I will NEVER understand this type of person

"We're going to put ourselves in the way between Israeli military aggression and a helpless civilian population

You'll be able to find them because they will have bombs strapped to them.

PS Don't come back

[Texbob]

Great target pratice for the Israeli soldiers, you said it correctly. Those idiots deserve to get their butts shot.

ROR - Rots of Ruck.... LOL

This is disturbing. What are U.S. Jews teaching their children?

I think they are suffering from the "Judas Iscariot/Adolf Hitler/Adolf Eichmann Syndrome" which seems to be epidemic in NYC. Maybe it's a virus found in Matzo. All three betrayed their own. (Adolf Hitler's mother was Jewish)

And maybe that's why they stay here.

Well said, Mark. I have often wondered the same thing when I hear cousins with the same attitude. My brother actually said to me the other day (after sedar) that the Palestinians were going through a phase!! I went ballistic, I said a child goes through a phase playing with one toy, or a teenager goes through a phase wearing his hair green--Palestinians want to kill all the Jews--period--that's a fact, not a phase!!!!

[Betteboop]

It's a shame--Forest Hills High School, where my husband (and Simon and Garfunkel) went, used to be a really good school. Those days are gone.

What are U.S. Jews teaching their children?

You only read about the liberals because that's who the press wants to portray as "mainstream".

Jews who are conservative in the FR sense are either non-persons, or daubed with the "right-wing" brush.
