to be boring...
AnaHadWolves, my Mossad handlers asked me to ask you:
Are you related to AnaDancedWithWolves?
Please get back to me on this ASAP.
>>tick, tick, tick<< Israel's apologists' time is running out. The world sees Israel for what it is: a nasty bully.
is speaking at the UN about an end to violence in Gaza and to the acceptance of a Palestinian State. This might involve the West Bank too, I suppose. Now, Jonathan, as you continue to expostulate in a very unlovely manner, you might need to contact Dr. Amy for one of her calming-down powders and a prescription to "Keep on taking the pills" indefinitely. I'm sure that, busy though she is on her blog, she'll be sympathetic and regard you as an emergency case. All that spitting and spouting must be exhausting.
Correcting your numerous mistakes is tedious.
Why don't you ask AnaDancedWithWolves?
A lot of posters on here seem to be missing the main point of Gary's original article, i.e. Hamas itself is an inevitable reaction to, and by-product of, militant Zionism.
When did Hamas come into being? Did it exist in Palestine prior to the foundation of the Israeli state? Or did it manifest itself as an all-too-obvious reaction to the appropriation (a polite word for stealing) of Palestinian lands and property, and the relegation of the native (non-Jewish) population to the status of second-class citizens in their own country? The systematic maltreatment of the Palestinian people at the hands of the Israeli state has led inevitably to the creation of a militant resistance movement, Hamas, which gains succour and invigoration from each successive act of suppression.
The ironic thing is this - Hamas are not stupid. They know that by 'provoking' the Israelis by launching rocket attacks, they will unleash a disproportionate military response which will fire up their support and further entrench their position as 'the only true defenders of the oppressed Palestinian people', willing to stand up to the mighty Israelis...
If the stated Israeli intention of this 'operation', i.e. to significantly weaken, or destroy the power base of Hamas in Gaza, is true, why do they then embark upon a course of action that will do nothing but further entrench the causes of the conflict?
Surely, as any clear thinking rational person (from reading this blog, these appear to be thin on the ground) can see, the most effective course of action to undermine/ destroy Hamas, would be to remove the reasons for their existence, and commit to a fair and just solution to the plight of the Palestinian people?
Would it be cynical to assume that there are just as many in the Israeli defence industry (and construction businesses, cf Ariel Sharon) that want this war to continue as in the 'freedom fighters' of Hamas?
he's obviously drinking heavily at the large crescent-shaped bar in Eckman at Raines 2 Street, right on Dizengoff Square. Or, he's cuddled up with a nice Mossad agent on one of the big comfy sofas. By the way, Jonathan, you still stretching those scrawny excuses for muscles across the street at Everybody fitness center?
Loser...
a Gaelic version of Mary! You really shouldn't display your racism and bigotry any more than you've done already but you're insistent on providing more than enough rope to hang yourself as you rail against everyone who doesn't indulge in the self-glorification of being one of "the chosen people". Dr. Amy must have been taken away by the men in the white coats as she hasn't appeared at the clinic today so you might have to wait a while for those calming-down powders. I tell you what, go down to Jaffa and see if you can find a juicy Jaffa orange and suck on it. You're probably in need of vitamin C with the enervating effects of all your trash-typing.
it doesn't fly.
Simply in terms of the amount of territory involved and the numbers of Jewish settlers compared with the Arab population, it's plain that the analogy fails.
Furthermore, there's no analogy to be made in relation to the drastic decline in the numbers of the indigenous population in North America and the massive increase in European settlers following the initial founding of the "New World" colonies. For one thing, the Jews simply don't have the population base to draw from. For another, they haven't forcibly eradicated the Arab population the way the indigenous tribes of the USA were eradicated. The Jewish settlers didn't arrive with a technological civilization that simply overwhelmed the indigenous people of Palestine with unheralded material power. Nor did they carry diseases that decimated the indegenous population, the way the Europeans did.
(Parenthetically: in the overwhelming case, that horrible result in the American case was NOT the result of intentional "germ warfare" as a genocidal project by the European settlers- it was simply something terrible that happened, it was no one's "fault." When the Lewis and Clark expedition went up the Missouri River in 1804, they found village after village already decimated by diseases like measles (some with nearly 100% mortality) picked up by the tribes from a few sporadic contacts with the tiny population of fur trappers and traders on the frontier in the Mississippi-Missouri basin, who represented the only Europeans present in the region up to that point. Meanwhile, Western medical science was just beginning to develop a coherent theory of contagious disease contamination.)
The (re)settlement of Palestine/Israel by the Jews isn't even comparable with the historic unfolding of the European settlement of Canada, for that matter.
Come on...if anyone thinks that the Jews of Israel and their leaders have any intention of pursuing a "Manifest Destiny" geopolitical expansion in the region that goes so far as the East Bank of the Jordan River, provide your reasoning.
Ah, Ana, you've been away from the Big Orange toooo long.
Everybody closed about two years ago.
Be careful Ana, you'll blow your cover, and M will be upset with you.
