Is that the perp on LSD? I think he might already be on it, so perhaps that explanation is erroneous.

I saw parts of the All Stars making fun of Yasser--and I missed it live because I was grocery shopping (hey, we've gotta eat). I've seen most of his bizarro show & knew the damn thing was a set-up--it plays well to the Euroweenies, the Arab/Muslim street--heck, even the Pope...including Yasser saying that the place was holy to Christians & Moslems. I yelled, "since when is the Church holy to the MOSLEMS especially when your goons are inside shooting up the place & holding hostages?"

Nothing Christian is holy to Islam...Islam SPITS on the essence of Christianity by denying the Truth that Christ is the Savior and Son of God. They say he is merely a prophet yet have the GALL to claim OUR holy sites are holy to them? The utter nerve...

Please fellow freepers, pray for our brethren in the Holy land. My family has a close friend who is an arch preist in the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia who was physically attacked recently by a gang of Palestinian Muslims...for NO reason other than that he is a Russian priest...he is OK but the situation there is NOT good...

Tomorow is Holy Thursday on the Julian calendar, which is the calendar of the Orthodox Church...it is the day when the Last Supper is remembered...Friday is Good Friday; the rememberence of the Crucifiction of Christ...and Sunday is the Feast of the Resurrection of Our Lord and Savior - Pascha - Easter...How sad that the Paschal bells may be silenced by the evil fighting that is going on in this most sacred of lands...

Pray for peace...

Geraldo is blaming the Israelis--and CNN is blaming the Palestinians.

I caught that,too. The World has gone mad.

We've got to work on your English. It's BULL SH!T, or just BS. Bravo Sierra works well, too. Barbara Streisand is an option as well.

LOL ... I think it captures him perfectly ...

I think the caption to this photo is:

Give me a kiss Kofi.

I don't know, the way he put it is a kind of unique twist on the old war horse...so to speak. Could become kind of a special FR linguistic twist: like cheese, moose, showers and "All your base are belong to us".

That's just ballsh!t.

"The fire in the Church of the Nativity died down" - pi$$ poor reporting - the fires were in other buildings in the compound not the Church itself. It would seem they were deliberately lit to coincide with Aarafat's press conference.

Arafat will keep the stand-off brewing for as long as possible hoping the IDF makes a mistake and he will try something (like today's fires) that he will be able to blame the IDF for.

He will allow a few hostages to be released every day or so, and creat incidents where the Pali gunmen open up to try and draw fire from the IDF. The only way this will end is when those starving inside come out even against Arafat's orders.

Israeli forces completed their withdrawal from around Arafat's compound early on Thursday...

Hey, guess what, raghead - Israel is now no longer responsible for your "Security".

"cmeeer, Yasser... come on out into the pretty sunlight, where we can get a... real... good... look at you..."

I forgot to add... We should start a pool on how long it is before he's eating goat testicles with Allah

Israelis End Siege of Arafat

And they're going to regret it, very soon. Watch for the homicide bombings to resume.

[Redbob]

Please!
If you're going to post a picture of Arabfat, at least give us a warning!

How much longer is that disgusting slug going to pollute this planet by walking on it?

I totally agree with you. I was appalled that Yassir Terrorfat presumed to speak for Christians. Reminds of the Palestinian parents who made their kids hold up signs at a recent protest in my city that said Jews were greedy and that they killed Jesus.

Time and time again when muslims move into an area, especially Palestinians, you will find them either dismantling a church or building over one. In Isreal and the mideast, there are hundreds of archealogical sites that are off limits in muslim controlled because they are afraid that anything uncovered will contradict islamic doctrine or claims. The same cannot be said about Isreali controlled areas.
