Peacenik Jew Marries Arab (Adam Shapiro Barf Alert)

Peacenik Jew Marries Arab

ontroversial Brooklyn peace activist Adam Shapiro married the "enemy" yesterday.

Shapiro, a Jew who has been an outspoken critic of the Israeli invasion of the West Bank, tied the knot with longtime love Huwaida Arraf — a Palestinian peace activist from Detroit.

The couple — he is 30, she is 26 — were married in a Catholic ceremony at a Detroit-area church. The location was kept secret because Shapiro and his family in Sheepshead Bay have received death threats from angry Jews. More than 200 people attended the nuptials.

Shapiro traded his trademark grubby T-shirt and bandanna for a black tuxedo. The bride was radiant in a full-length white gown. The newlyweds met while working for a group that promotes cultural understanding between Jews and Palestinians.

The Shapiros, who live in Ramallah, will be honeymooning in the war-torn West Bank.

Thankfully, his spawn is out of the Jewish gene pool.

He's still a candidate for the Darwin.

No, for being Arafat's breakfast-&-butt-buddy in Ramallah during the siege.

How do you know there were "death threats"?

Besides, I thought Adam wanted "dialogue". He said so right up there.

The article states there were death threats, which I wouldn't doubt.

Both articles are slanted crap. I remember the Shapiros being sure to tell the media about the supposed death threats every chance they got (and they got quite a few chances), and wringing their hands about the "hatred", but I do not remember them telling our local constabulary about them. There's been zero news on that score.

Actually, Mr. Shapiro might want to give up the math gig and start giving drama workshops. The family has a gift in that area.

Wow, that was easy.

You wouldn't be French, would you?

No, for being a "Jewish" supporter of those who murder Jews. I'm not saying that I support the death threats, but I understand the motivation behind them.

As to the rest of your remark, what can I say besides "Happy Birthday".

She is a Christian (well, that is her affiliation anyway....the chance of her actually being saved is slim to none). I remember seeing a puke story on this on CBS....it made me hurl almost about how "now there is hope for peace" and BS like that.

Awwww now...itdidn't that sweet.
~sigh~
Love "is" blind, huh?

How about a *song* to honor the newlyweds?
Now follow the bouncing ball...

"I'd like to sing the world a song,
In perfect harmony..."

...Shapiro had better hope the Arab marksman's aim will be as blind as his *love*; yessiree, he sure should.
