Israel and Iraq

[mankie]

Is it not a little ironic that while US troops are in Iraq retaliating by wiping out the Iraqis that are attacking them, the US government is telling Israel to stop doing exactly that to the Palestinians?
 
 (Disclaimer)...not taking sides with anyone, just pointing out the irony.

Why don't you jump on the team and come on in for the big win? We are there to help the Iraqis, because inside every camel jockey there is an American trying to get out. It's a hardball world, son. We've gotta keep our heads until this peace craze blows over.

um, the shit with I/P has been going on way too long. in case you hadnt noticed, the I/P crisis is what got into this bullshit the first place. why do you think 9/11 happened? we backed israel for YEARS while they were wiping the palestinans out, and they finally got tired of it. i for one, am glad something is finally getting done about it.. the israeli's should have given palestine their land back LONG AGO... its not like they're giving up anything except land THAT WAS NEVER THEIR'S IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Like I said...I'm not taking sides, just pointing out that America is preaching "do as I say, not as I do". But you're right, Israel should fuck off out of the land that belongs to the Palestinians. I doubt that would stop the spineless acts of the homicide bombers though, because the hatred is so deep at this point they just want complete destruction of the jewish state. It amazes me though how none of the neighbouring Arab states are doing anything for their Palestinian "brothers" other than sending money to them....in a nutshell, nobody wants them, bless them!

It's crystal clear:  Human rights trump fossil fuels every time.
 
 The more fossil fuels you've got, the more human rights you possess.  Allah has richly blessed the Iraqis with beaucoup petroleum resources.  Whereas the Palestinians, as punishment for the heresy of lack-of-oil, have been granted less human rights.  This is the main reason why no one in the world press gives a rat's hiney-hole if burqa-less Saudi school girls are shoved back into a burning building to roast alive.

At least the U.S. has a great ally in Tony Blair and Great Britain!

The reason their brothers don't help against Isreal is because Isreal would wipe them all out too!!!!!!!!! And probably wouldn't break a sweat doing it.  :cool:
