  • To Be pro Israel or Not...

    ...that is not the question, but are we allowed to wonder if... a) ...we really are headed by people we have democratically elected? b) ...anyone has ever thought and/or still thinks that the world's powerful states have ever been that earnest while dealing with peace processes all over the world as an aim or a means? c) ...they are not ...

  • Iraq: Failure, mistake, or Success?

    Much has been stated about the fact that we were wrong to enter Iraq. That success is measured by how quickly we can get out of Iraq. Consider this: Iraq is in the heart of what most extremist Muslims consider holy ground. By attacking Iraq we attacked the heart of what the extremist Muslim holds dear. They have responded in force. Millions of ...

  • Re: Bush's trip

    Larry: I'm going to play Prez for this post. There's no way I'm going to visit Israel/Palestine for show. There's no upside for me if all I do is show up. But I have a plan. My plan is to lay it out for them. For Abbas: ''You figure out a border you can live with. You can have some of Israel, but you're going to have to give up on 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 ...

  • Re: Any missed Palestinian opportunities?

    doodahman: In short, from your shifting arguements, misrepresentations, exaggerations, and straw men, it seems you don't care about the truth, only about being right. Or, rather, on a busy work day, I don't have time to research and stat for stat rebut uncited allegations installed overnight on the thread. I can only respond rhetorically ...

  • Re: Any missed Palestinian opportunities?

    doodahman: Israel is hardly blameless for the problems there but the foul language and violent, aggressive tone of the Palestinian types here makes a few things very clear. You are such an asshole. Oh, they have cars? Fuck you. They also have starving children, murdered children, lost land, inviable communities and a life no better than ...

  • 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 ...

  • Re: Any missed Palestinian opportunities?

    Bottomfish:So the big missed opportunity was in not responding to an Arab League statement about Hezbollah's ''unexpected, inappropriate, and irresponsible acts.'' Please note that this says nothing about Israel's permanent right to exist. Did we hear such a statement from Hamas? Would Kaplan care to comment on missed opportunities on the ...
