The Palestinian gunmen holed up in the Church of the Nativity and later deported by Israel seized church stockpiles of food and "ate like greedy monsters" until the food ran out, while more than 150 civilians went hungry.

     They also guzzled beer, wine and Johnnie Walker scotch that they found in priests' quarters, undeterred by the Islamic ban on drinking alcohol.

Gee, I'm shocked. And using Bibles as toilet paper.

I wonder what the media's reaction would have been had Israeli's taken refuge in the Dome of the Rock and acted similarly, using a Koran as TP?

And all this is news because... ???

These loser Mass Murderers are savages of the most useless kind, and any country which accepts them deserves exactly what they get.
That Arafat was wringing his hands and proclaiming that they were "protectng" the church was a macabre joke, and the only remarkable thing is the number of brain-dead Americans that took it seriously.

There is only one way to deal with terrorists, and it's a matter of "when", not "if".

This is Islam. Muslims disrespect and seek to eliminate -- with force -- all other religions.

Not the Muslims I know. They were brought up to respect not only Christianity but Judiasm as well. However, there is a growing trend of radicalism within Islam that is alarming many.

I can think of a better one. Monks might not find it much to their liking, but it suits me just fine... They want my property? OK. Fine. They can have it. They get the little pieces of lead, first, if they can catch them. They'll be moving at about 2500 ft/sec. Good luck, tangoes!!! :)

These 'holy' fighters seem to break every religious command in their book except the one that tells them to murder and beat women. I don't want to hear any more crap about holy Muslims and corrupt westerners. I've seen a good dose of desert holiness and find it severely lacking.

The Muslims you know must have been brought up in the USA and missed out on the anti-sematic and anti-Christian portions of the Qu'ran.

The anti-sematism and hatred toward other religions runs rampant in the middle east. Mein Kempf by Adolph Hitler is a best-seller in Palestine. The Saudis regularly run anti-sematic propaganda. Christians have been killed and attacked by the tens of thousands in Muslim nations. And, even Hindus have been attacked in India.

Even Muslim schools in this nation have been caught with maps that exclude Israel from the world map.
