"After they just killed 10 people, they have to get the PLOs balance!"

Yes, and when asked what Arafat can do to stop this she is claiming that he has no means to communicate, after spending the last few days giving phone interviews to all the major media.

What a bunch of liars.

It's like Reagan always said "Peace through strength". It's a law of nature.

Watching CNN,

Did you see that b!t*H on there before with Adam Shapiro the American sub-human sheild? She looked like her panties got all messy at the thought of being near Arafart.

Excerpt:

Just as revealing was the reaction from the European media. In the American press, you read things like: "An observer to the bomb-blast scene described a dead young girl, perhaps 10 or 12, lying on the ground with her eyes open, looking as if she was surprised." For Europe, on the other hand, the main significance of this development was that it was "unhelpful" to the "peace process". Before I'm accused of being more upset about dead Jewish than dead Muslim kids, let me say that I take people at their own estimation: in the Palestinian Authority schools, they teach their children about the glories of martyrdom; indeed, the careers guidance counsellor appears to have little information on alternative employment prospects; at social events, the moppets are dressed up as junior jihadi, with toy detonators and play bombs. It's not that I place less value on Palestinian lives, but that Chairman Arafat and his chums in Hamas do. So does Saddam Hussein, whose government (the subject of an admiring article in this week's Spectator) gives $25,000 to the family of each Palestinian suicide bomber. So does the Arab League, which at last year's summit passed a resolution hailing the "spirit of sacrifice" of the Palestinian "martyrs" and thus licensed Wednesday's massacre. As for the "peace process", those Europeans who, just a few months ago, were urging the Americans to cease operations for Ramadan evidently feel no compunction to demand from Chairman Arafat and his dark subsidiaries any similar "bombing pause" for Passover.

In the days after September 11, we were told that Muslims had great respect for their fellow "people of the book" - ie, Jews and Christians. This ought to be so: after all, the dramatis personae of the Koran include Abraham, Moses, David, John the Baptist, Jesus and the Virgin Mary. It's one thing to believe that the Israelis are occupiers and oppressors and that the Zionist state should not exist. But no Muslim with any understanding of his shared heritage could in good conscience blow up a Passover Seder. It marks a new low in the Palestinians' descent into nihilism - though, as usual, the silence of the imams is deafening. As for the nonchalance of the Europeans, that too should not surprise us: in my experience, the Continent's Christians, practising and nominal, find the ceremonies of Jewish life faintly creepy, notwithstanding that these were also the rituals by which their own Saviour lived.

But this year, when the Christians' solar calendar and the Jews' lunar calendar have coincided and Easter and Passover fall together, it's a safe bet that George W Bush will make the connection. The first time I ever heard him speak, he spoke openly about his faith and about Christ in a way that would be unimaginable for a British politician. He will know all the details - "the baby tried to crawl away, but it died, too".......................

Weakness makes you the next meal in the MidEast.

Americnas won't understand this until the first nuke goes off. Then the next Crusades will get underway.

About time.


BUMP

It looks like Yasser has answered President Bush. Yasser's definition of "doing more" is "killing more Israelis."

Hannan Ashwari was just in a rant on CNN. It's the usual "occupation," "under seige," and poor Yasser not being able to do anything because he's in prison. If I could've reached through the phone, I would've throttled Ashwari on the spot.

All of these suicide attacks in the past 48 hours sound very well planned and executed. Hard to believe all these "spontaneous" terrorists are acting on a sudden impulse. Also, hard to believe they would be acting thusly if they really thought it could cost Arafat his life.

Why do the Israelis keep going to clubs and restaurants? You would think that they would exercise a little more caution and stay in there homes until this blows over.

4 attacks in the last 5 days... between Passover and Easter... and we actually discuss not bombing at all during the month of Ramadan. Hm.

You're wrong and your mistake is that you are thinking with a full deck.

That's what scares me--the world has truly gone insane. Logic has flown straight out the window.

Arafat gets a Nobel Peace Prize, the US and Israel get condemnation no matter what we do. The media have churned out more pro-Pali garbage in one weekend than I've seen in five years. Jewish Communists from New York have gone to the West Bank to serve as "human shields"--for the Palestinians. None of it makes any sense at all. And we're expected to reason with insanity and compromise with evil, simply because there are so many of them. This is the real tyranny of the majority.

Don't look for logic in this, RightOnline, it'll drive you mad.

I sincerely hope I am wrong, but there are going to be many Easter services in this country this morning. I hope and pray they are all safe. I just suspicion that terrorists in this country, comparable to those in the Middle East, may try to do something this morning.
