I know most of you have some idea of the character of the pro-Palesinian protesters around the world, particularly those in the U.S. (hardcore leftists, Fifth Columnists, etc.), but I think we to be reminded that we don't see many pro-Israel protests, or if there are, the press doesn't cover them. Some of the pictures from pro-Palestinian protests around the world are pretty disgusting, to say the least. Here are some examples from only this month.

Phony Words vs. Real Actions
Phony blood vs. Real blood
Ain't that the truth. The good news is, I have at least another 40 years left to help fight the new Evil Empire.
To add some simplicity to a complex subject;
Let's not forget, as so many obviously have...
That while our country stood watching in horror...
As 3,000 INNOCENT, NON-MILITARY, Americans were brutally murdered....
Including hundreds of Fireman, who perished with as much courage as any of our heroes, trying to save others...
While the whole WORLD watched on CNN?
The palestinian people, and moslems around the world...
Who are asking for our sympathy, and for us to be "tolerant" to arabs..
And are asking us not to support Israel, when we are their only allies in the WORLD....
All these protesters, and all the pro pallis posts I see here at FR, are supporting a people who...
Stood and CHEERED the deaths of innocent Americans....
As the planes impacted into the towers,As the bodies hit the pavement, as the towers crumbled,As 3,000 souls perished, as people watched their loved ones die, As Husbands called Wives for the last time...
Celebrated as if it allah himself had appeared...
On these same streets the Israelis are now rolling tanks down...
All while the whole WORLD watched on CNN...
And now your asking America to care that Israel get's it's revenge for your cowardly suicide bomb attacks, because you and ALL of the Arab nation can't take a country that would fit seven times inside the State of Georgia, in uniform ,like REAL MEN do.
You have the gall to compare Israel with the Nazi's that gassed millions of jews, saying they are practicing "Ethnic Cleansing", just like hitler..
I don't see a shortage of pallis, or pallis that are walking skeltons, or mass rounups of pallis into railroad cars.
You are the nazi's, and will stop at nothing untill you push the jews into the sea.
While Israel lived with the pallis, and like us, have been preached to about "tolerance" nonstop, the pallis own moslem brothers in Jordan will NOT tolerate them.
I was neutral about the subject till then. Now,I consider anyone who supports this cause to have been at the "celebration" of American lives lost. Innocent American lives.
Considering the volume of Israel/palli stories,I find the non-mention of the "celebration" in the media very disturbing.
They probably don't want us to remember, I'll NEVER forget.
My question is, what would Bush do if WE started staging mass protests and angry marches that called for DEATH of foreign leaders blatantly as these folks have of our president?
Would there be a crack down here??? you better beleive it. YOU know it. OUR government would NOT tolerate Americans revolting and threatening murder in the streets... WHY do they tolerate it from these pukes?
Why are we not marching violently, with pictures of death in front of islamic mosques every day of the week? BECAUSE we know we cannot do it and get by with it.
Followers of Islam, and Arabs are held to a lesser standard than the rest of us could expect... I do NOT know why. Is it because we are so vulnerable here, that we fear retaliation? Or is it our antiquated sense of morality and christian forebearance, that is holding us at their mercy on these issues? I really don't understand.
I don't advocate violence. I just don't see why they can exercise their rights, but if we do, it's hate speech, ESPECIALLY AFTER 9-11.
What would the world think if all of a sudden there was a huge movement within America of "Fundamentalists". American Fundamentalism. Dedicated to smaller government, keep all levels of government within Constitutional limitations, and lest I forget - AMERICA FIRST in all decision making within Congress. Wait, aren't we supposed to have an entire party that believes in these things???
A few more "planks" while I'm dreaming: Make English the National Language. Fully secure our borders. Purge the nation of illegal immigrants. Outlaw any further importation of middle eastern oil, replacing it with oil from Russia. Issue a citizenship exam to all (the same one that immigrants had to take in years past) and deport those who fail to France or any middle eastern country except Israel. (See ya Rats!) Continue the "Bush" Doctrine and give the rest of the planet 30 days to decide which "side" they are on. Assimilate nations who side with us fully as partners, demolish those who do not by requiring either Clinton run their nation for a few years.
When will the Suicide Murders begin again here in America, how many will die before we wake up and "fight back" or will we just be permitted to die by the thousands until we are no more, until we are no more.
This is our country, our nation, our home. This is not "PALESTINE" , this is AMERICA for Gods sake people, what is it going to take for our Government to stop giving our home away to foreign nations. These people come into our home and "DARE" us to open our mouths, dare us to hit back.
Something will happen, it's going to be bloody, I know, because I know our Military will not turn on their own, but they will turn on our enemy within, with or without our Governments OK, they are our families. Our President should be ashamed for allowing this to go this far here in our own home. Millions have fought and died for America, why are we allowing this Government to give our country away to Suicidal Nations that want all of us dead?
Sweet God in Heaven, Why are Americans not amassing and marching on Washington by the Millions to save The United States of America? I don't know about others, but I am scared, I am so scared, not for myself but for the thousands I know will die sometime soon because we have been whipped into "Civilized" people and this will get many, many dead. There is not a thing I can do, but "Weep" for my people.
What's the difference between Klansmen hiding underneath hoods while burning crosses, and Islamofascists hiding underneath rags while burning flags and photos.The difference? Klansmen have been denounced as evil by mainstream US society... while Islamofacists have declared Good by the forces of Political Correctness.
Otherwise, no difference. No difference at all.
Hundreds of demonstrators? Managua Nicaragua!?
Someone who knows the area help me out here. The rest of the pictures, I can understand where you would get the token Palies and the idiots creating these disturbances. But Managua Nicaragua? I just don't get it.
Nice work, Pyro7480. Very Diogenesis-like, and that's high praise indeed.
Roflmao... sorry it would be considered cruel and unusual punishments. men would be locking up their daughters, wives, sons and goats....
No, they want to destroy everything that stands for freedom, not just Israel.
