"Thermo nuclear warfare?"LOL...good comeback. I still don't know why you posted the picture out of context, but good comeback.
(I used to be an Ultima fan, myself, but don't like their latest efforts)
Why DID you post the picture out of context?

You can give me dictionary definitions all you want, but this wasn't a dissing.
If some people of Western culture interpret it as such, it still wasn't a dissing in context.
Period.

You know why she refused to shake Sharon's hand? The only crack in his hand is between his fingers. Owwww!!!! LOL Slam dunk!

"People are missing the real issue. Houston is promoting this racist cult. She does not know what they are about?"Likely she does. Uh....it's not exaclt a cult. Before Israel would let this tribe (which was being exterminated by African Muslims) take refuge in Israel, their claims were checked thoroughly by the most respected experts in rabbianic law. IIRC, the consensus is that their tribe split off and continued it's cultural/religious evolution seperately from what is considered Judaic Orthadoxy today. The changes are actually considered small, if taken in the context that they split occurred several thousand years ago.
People tend to forget just how ancient Judaeism is.

In the lead photo, to me it looks more like Sharon is gesturing, as if to say, 'Please have a seat,' or 'Let me show you around', not extending for a handshake, which would be at a different angle.
(BTW, Galahad, I'm a fellow Wodehouse fan.)

Reuters Tuesday, May 27, 2003; 1:01 PM JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Whitney Houston on Tuesday visited Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, who took time out from preparations for a summit with his Palestinian counterpart and President Bush to meet the pop diva. "It's home. It's a friendship I've never had with any other country," Houston, dressed in a long red robe with white embroidery, told Sharon. Houston was in Israel with her husband, rhythm and blues singer Bobby Brown, to visit "friends and family" among the Black Hebrews, an African-American community that moved to Israel in 1969 and settled in the southern town of Dimona. On Monday, Houston told reporters in Israel's southern resort of Eilat that she was on "spiritual retreat" during which she would visit family and friends in Dimona.They were not being exterminated by Muslims. They are from the United States.

"I shouldn't have assumed a 'dis'. (I made an ass out of me.)"Given that so many celebrities are such total wackjobs, it's understandable. (Whitney IS a wackjob but this is different) That's why caution is so important.
You're forgiven, if you can forgive ME for assuming you were posting with an agenda. Welcome to FR.

"The Black Hebrew Israelites make Farakhan and the Nation of Islam look like nothing"Yeah, I know. And Muhmmad was a flaming plagaerist. And a psychopathic killer. And Arabs really are a Semitic people.
I know I shouldn't have said that...but darnit...well, I did. It needs to be laid out side by side once in a while.
