I have a gut feeling the mantra repeated from many diverse corners that they hate us in the Mideast because of Israel's "treatment" of the "Palestinians" may not be true.

I think they hate us because they hate us and will continue to hate us even after we finish serving Israel up to them.

This is a DOUBLE RED FLAG ALERT........

On March 14, the United Nations' high commissioner on refugees, António Guterres, sent a letter to President Jalal Talabani of Iraq expressing his concern about reports of violence against Palestinians and "the limited capacity of the Iraqi security forces to provide effective protection" to them, according to Astrid van Genderen Stort, a spokeswoman for the commissioner's office. He suggested the creation of "a special protection office" in areas populated by Palestinians.

Guterres has balls for an impotent (really bad word here)

Allah Akbar! There's one thing you've got to admit about Islam. They don't discriminate .... they hate everyone.

Just more of the "civil war" crapola.

Many of these Palestinians were members of the Fedyeen (and have actively supported the terrorists). I'm sure there are some who did not, but most of them did.

Many of the Palis were Saddam's thugs.

Ping to yesterday's discussion.

With the fall of Mr. Hussein's regime, many Palestinians were driven from their homes by owners whose property had been appropriated by Mr. Hussein.

1) What a shock, people would actually want their stolen property back.

2) Don't ya just love the Mr. Hussein stuff?

The fact is, the entire Arab world is contemptuous of the Palestinians, whom they call Phillistines, never Palestinians.

Remember the Palestinians in Kuwait when Saddam invaded? When the Kuwaitis got their country back, there was a backlash too. The fact is, the Philllistines are the lowest rung on the ladder in that part of the world.

With all their oil wealth, the Sauds, Kuwaitis, Iranians, Qataris and others who claim to champion the Palestinian cause could subsidize the Palestinian population and raise the standard of living in the West Bank and Gaza Strip immensely through investment.

Instead, all their money goes to HAMAS and Islamic Jihad and families of suicide bombers.

Why? Because they don't give a hoot about the Phillistines. They really only want to see Israel wiped off the map.

Iraqi house cleaning continues. At least these guys got a warning. The guys belonging to the surplus bodies showing up around town with a bullet through the head did not.

The US should set up a caravan to get them back to the Palestinian Homeland.

Jordan wasn't fond of them. The king obliterated an entire village around 1971. And the PLO was sent packing.

Lebanese were glad to get rid of them in the 1980s.

Tunisia was happy to see them gone.

The Kuwaitis were stung by the Palistinians cheering the Iraqi invasion in 1990. Small wonder that when the Kuwaitis returned the PLO/PLA was not welcome like they once were.

---

Palistinians are not really welcome anywhere because they have a history, they have serious issues with pretty much everyone, and they continually mess up their nest, so to speak.

The west bank Jordanians, aka the Palestinians are the Cliff Barneses of the Arab world. They never miss an opportunity to make poor choices.

Michael Kleiner of Herut offers the Arabs of Jaffa money to resettle in the Arab utopia of their choice, and he is beaten up and trumpeted in the press as RACIST RACIST RACIST NAZI NAZI NAZI.

I read this entire article and not once did I see the R or N word applied to the folks who are murdering Palestinians by the hundreds.

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.
