Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran or Just Kiddin'?
Senator McCain seems to have a lock on the Republican nomination. The Democratic race is leaning Obama, but Team Clinton has a long record of coming from behind (no pun intended). If dirt is to be dug up and thrown, Bilary and Co. will be shoveling fast and hard. So, McCain vs. Whom? If McCain does win, what happens to Pax Americana? ...

Re: Warsaw ghetto
Scoot'r-d:greeneggsnham I am looking at history to emphasize the hypocrisy in the condition the Palestinians face. In the 30's European Jewry faced a monstrous ethnic inequity at the hands of Germany. Yet by the late 40's those same people were imposing another ethnic inequity on others. Though it is nowhere near as monstrous it is hideous that ...

Re: Two state solution
bsharporflat: At this point there is a reasonable case to be made for a 3 state solution: Israel, Palestine and Hamastan (Gazaland?). أرضغزّة غزة الارض amen to that. the political climate in the west bank isn't that close to that in Gaza. there's a lot more folks in the west bank who know they could benefit from a reasonably friendly ...

Re: Some history and background on the Gaza
bsharporflat:I don't see you offering any corrections Phillistine. Sounds like you are saying, ''Look how Egypt treats Palestinians like crap. Israel is to blame for that!'' Let's not forget to blame Israel for 9/11, Shia-Sunni conflicts and the Bali nightclub bombing. Throw in the tsunami while you are at it. <sarcasm>gee, after the ...

Re: What this summary does not say ...
Larry2: ... is that Israel continues to control Gaza. As many have pointed out, when the Israelis ''withdrew'' from Gaza it went from being the most densely populated occupied territory in the world to being the most densely populated prison in the world. The Israelis still completely control the entirety of Gaza's border with the outside ...

Re: The Gaza concentration camp
Scoot'r-d:The history of this article starts in a recent 1948 when the region now known as Gaza first became a geographic entity. Of course that is an extension of events that occurred well before that time that do very much impact the human and political events taking place since and currently. The United Nations establishment of Israel and the ...

Re: mystery solved
PhilistineTheArtLover: Let me venture another guess: Rockets are being sent to Israel as a result of an unending 40 year old occupation. Look at it this way, how long did it take for Iraqis to start throwing rockets at US soldiers after the 2003 invasion? Not long, was it? The Palestinians kept absolute quiet in the West Bank and Gaza for ...

Is it just me?
1) I'm not regretting that Bush didn't move to try to broker an Israeli-Palestinian peace for the past 7 years; given his track record, I think we'll be lucky if he doesn't manage to inflame the conflict there. The one thing learned early on in the Bush presidency was that, if the President turned his attention and concern in your direction, you ...

Re: Any missed Palestinian opportunities?
bsharporflat: As I understand it, Palestinians have slots in the Knesset. Did Hitler give any slots in the Nazi government to jews? I once heard a complaint from a Palestinian that they were forced to put a different sort of licence plate on their cars than jews. Um...they have cars? Also I have seen video of the Palestinian refugee camps (made ...
