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

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

Why apologize for waving somebody's flag?

If I were Ghana I'd tell those who didn't like it to perch and rotate.

And why would a Ghana player be waving an Israeli flag?

Who knew?

He plays for the Tel Aviv team.

Yes, we were spared the spectacle of the Saudis getting goals and then, as a group, gyrating their buttocks Heavenward!

The secret invisible Zionist ray gun that makes many American politicians support Israel misfired and hit this Ghanaian soccer player.

Cool...good for this guy to show some support for his primary fan-base in Israel, even if he is from Ghana.

On that note, however, The USA had sure better kick Ghana's butt on Thursday!

Here's Pantsil.

Although tiny and not as well known as the Jewish community of Ethiopia, Ghana still had a Jewish community of its own, most of whom have emigrated to Israel.

I'm not sure, but I think it's the other way around.

Exactly! It was very Rovian :-)

At least the player understands how to escape a shit-hole - Kofi's home country. He's trying to get off the plantation, which cannot be allowed.

We need Italy to beat the Czechs for the US to have a hope of going on.

Well, I'll be...have to go back and watch that game on my "on demand" channel. Woo hoo. I was wondering on soccer-maniac's freep thread how Ghana managed a win. Now I know!

And the obvious gets lost.

To who is Ghana apologizing?

What have the Arabs/Islamics threatened?

Israel fantasizes about peace with the Arabs. George Bush has visions of two states living in side by side peace. Yet the Arab/Islamic World goes nuts at just a glimpse of the Israeli flag.

I wonder how angry they would have been if Israel had not surrendered Gaza.

Two states living side by side in peace? Hah. Two cultures living side by side in peace? Equally unlikely.
