Sounds like a pretty accurate assessment to me

Palestinians are really Jordanians, for the most part, and Jordan was the original Palestinian state.

No, as you know, left to themselves in a world of peace, the worst Jews would ever do to people is debate them to death.

BWAHAHAHAHA! Oi gavault, it is funny because it is true, this much I know.

What if we had a Columbine every day?

So for the sake of honesty, let's not use the word "Palestinian" any more to describe these delightful folks, who dance for joy at our deaths until someone points out they're being taped. Instead, let's call them what they are: "Other Arabs From The Same General Area Who Are In Deep Denial About Never Being Able To Accomplish Anything In Life And Would Rather Wrap Themselves In The Seductive Melodrama Of Eternal Struggle And Death." I know that's a bit unwieldy to expect to see on CNN.

Oh, I don't know. "OAFTSGAWAIDDANBATAAILAWRWTITSMOESAD's" could catch on. ;o)

(BTW it's pronounced "oafs-gawa-iddn-batta-aila-artit-moe-sad.")

(the opening was pretty funny too...)

I WAS WATCHING Greta Van Facelift on Fox the other night, and she and her guests made me talk back to the TV. Shout back, actually. Nothing witty or trenchant, you understand, just something like, "Oh, come on!" Now, to be honest, it was late, and I was downstairs alone, and I was a little, what's the word . . . loaded, yes, that's the word. I was a little shined up. A little spiffed and a little miffed, and I shouted something and angrily turned off the remote. I don't know exactly how angrily a remote can be turned off, but as angrily as you can push a pfennig-sized piece of round plastic, that's how angrily I did it. Then I walked back to the bar, made myself one-for-the-stairs (as opposed to one-for-the-road) and read some P.G. Wodehouse to restore my cheery nature. But back to the freshly-tightened Greta.

Her guests were (INSERT INDISTINGUISHABLE ARAB NAME), from Hamas, and their attorney, Stanley Cohen. No, that's not a joke. Would that it were. Stanley Cohen, the attorney for Hamas. Check that handle again: Stanley Cohen. I mean, if you tried to make up a better name than that, you couldn't do it. Let's give it a shot, though, shall we? Irving Lefkowitz. Nah, too obvious. Lew Fishman. No, no, sounds like a carpet salesman. Isaac Bashevis Singer? Now I'm reaching. Nope, you just can't beat good ol' Stan Cohen. Yes, Stanley Cohen, folks, a hard-left, righteously indignant true-believer, an honors graduate from the William Kunstler School of Just-Not-Getting-It-And-Never-Will, who had flown all the way from New York to sit next to his wonderful client over there in not the land of milk and honey. Stanley Cohen. A man who, if he listened very carefully, would no doubt hear voices in the next room planning to blow the eyes out of more of his nieces and nephews. Stanley Cohen, and even typing that name right now and remembering this horrible man damning his own people again and again and again, I crack a nervous smile, because they're my people, too, and, God help me, if I didn't laugh, I think I might cry.

Oddly enough, out of the three of them, the homunculus from Hamas didn't bother me at all. I mean, if you think about it, why should he bother any American? We know exactly who he is and, in a way, we should be grateful for that. Because if we're only willing to absorb their own words--nevermind their demonic deeds--he and his brethren have a perfectly uncomplicated point of view and agenda, and their clarity should give us our own clarity, and wouldn't that be refreshing? You want us dead? Well, now, isn't that a funny coincidence. Guess what we want?

My point is, if American TV calls up and wants to put these philanthropists on, who could blame them for saying, "Sure!" I can just see them bursting out laughing and slapping each other on the back. ("They're going to put us on Fox TV! I told you terror works! And I'll bet their Green Room beats the snot out of Al Jazeera. I mean, please, how many olives can you eat?") If we're stupid enough to do that, I don't blame them for taking us up on it. All they have to do is take a few minutes away from packing rusty nails around the C4, pick one of their guys who looks, relatively, the least like a vicious scumbag, borrow a suit, and send him forth to smile for the cameras. With Stanley Cohen.

Thanks for the good post! It is interesting to watch the latest developments by the so-called "Palestinians" and their fearless leader, Arafat (winner of the Nobel Peace Prize) several years ago.

Whatever those fellows do or try to do with reference to the state of Israel, they are in for a great surprise. In the Bible (for those who are believers) the Book of Genesis (Gen 15:18) says " In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:"

When God makes a promise or covenant, he means what he says -- he does not break a covenant.

So whatever happens in the future, the Jews are not going to lose their land.

Great column! Next time I see Mr. Miller (we bump into each other at the local 7-11 every week or so), I'll compliment him on it.

I'm a Canaanite and wish you'd all leave. I think my family owned 10 miles of beachfront.

An interesting article.

But check out this bit:

[The Arabs]spread and believed horrible lies about the Arabs baking their bread with the blood of children? Disgusting.

How much less disgusting is it to allege that it was widespread practice for ordinary Germans to turn Jews into lampshades?

The claim is completely over the top. It, too, is disgusting.

ROTFLMAO!!! TOO funny!

Alas, living in Mass, the people seem brainwashed but I know that my viewpoint is colored through "Liberal-colored," glasses so I relax a little.

There are many great Freepers who live in Mass. YOu all might laugh but imagine having to live behind enemy lines like this! :D

This article points up just how crazed the whole arab world is to be obsessed with tiny Israel, and pinpoints the real cause: the hatred and envy of the inferior toward their betters. This is why no negotiation or concession will ever make any difference. It is not about land, it is not about statehood, it is not about Israeli operations in the West Bank, it is about a deep sense of arab failure and impotence. This gives rise to envy, the most discreditable of human emotions, which seeks to relieve psychological anguish by destroying the good object that is provoking it.

The other factor in the dynamic is the equally bizarre focus of Western elites on negotiations, discussions, and attempts to impose a rationally articulated solution. This is obviously crazy in such circumstances, and reflects the liberals' erroneous assumptions about human nature and man's relation to society. These assumptions are so central to the liberals sense of self identity that they will never give them up, regardless of how disastrous the results.

The solution, of course, is war that eliminates the forces that are causing the problem.
