This article presents an interesting way of looking at the Palestinians. I never thought of the Palestinians as puppets of Islamic fundamentalism - I thought that they were the leaders of it. They exist as an excuse to kill Jews. They are cannon fodder. Without the Palestinians, Islamic expansion would be exposed for what it really is - religious conversion by force; with the Palestinians there is "global pity for an oppressed race".

This doesn't improve my opinion of then, nor does it make me pity them. They are sheep. Real evil sheep. But it does show how protesting against "Israeli aggression" while protesting for Palestinian rights are contradictory. If the pro-terror crowd wants Palestinian rights, they should be protesting against Jordanian aggression.

Correct. Now let's try a mental exercise, shall we? Instead of "Palestinians," insert "blacks" in its place. Instead of the phrase "They exist to kill Jews," replace it with "They exist as an excuse for race hustlers and poverty pimps."

Get the picture?

It's appalling how a group or groups of people are used by the so-called elite few for their personal gain. It's exploitation, plain and simple.

Look at Arafat's home. It's a multi-million dollar estate! Yet we see so-called Palestinian refugees without homes who look to this man as their leader. Now look at Jesse Jackson, a man who has never held a real job, never been truly ordained as a "Reverend," and never created a dime of wealth but for himself and his cronies. Yet Jackson is a multi-millionaire just like Arafat. Are either Arafat or Jackson truly representative of their people or truly have their best interests in mind? Not at all.

Though I'm an American black, I'm not afraid to tell it like it is; Inner-city blacks are the American Palestinian refugees, and they are being used just like the so-called Palestinians are in the Middle East.

Put that in the bank and it will draw 75% interest compounded hourly. Trust me.
