Palestinians call on Iraqis to rise up against US
Jerusalem Post ^ | Apr. 9, 2004 | ASSOCIATED PRESS

Posted on 04/09/2004 7:01:56 AM PDT by yonif

Thousands of Palestinians staged pro-Iraq rallies Friday to mark the first anniversary of the fall of Baghdad, calling on Iraqis to rise up against the United States in a holy war.

Following Friday prayers, thousands of protesters in the West Bank and Gaza Strip burned Israeli and US flags and chanted slogans against US President George W. Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.

In Gaza City, about 2,000 Islamic Jihad supporters, including children holding the militant group's black flags, chanted "Death to America," and burned effigies of Bush and Sharon.

"Our message to the world, to our brothers in Iraq, we are fighting against the same enemies, the same occupation, we are fighting in the same battle," Mohammed al-Hindi, an Islamic Jihad leader, told reporters.

"Our people in Palestine and our brothers in Iraq are slaughtered by the knife, the knife of Bush and Sharon," he said.

In the West Bank city of Nablus, about 400 Palestinians from various groups marched through the city chanting "Bush and Sharon are terrorists."

Preachers in Nablus mosques spoke out against the current American military operation in Iraq and called on Iraqis to unite against America.

"The Sunni and the Shiites have united in a Jihad, as they should, against the Americans," one cleric said. "The Palestinian and Iraqi people will lead the Arabs to victory," another said.

In Ramallah, some 200 people joined an Islamic Jihad rally to mark what they called the first anniversary of the American occupation of Iraq. Masked gunmen in white and black robes burned Israeli and American flags as the crowd chanted "Bush is the enemy of God," and "Death to Bush."

"Fallujah, the people of Palestine are with you," one group chanted, referring to the Iraqi city at the center of the fighting.

I guess nobody has bothered to tell the palestinians that THEY are the tool of the mideast and dont carry much weight when it comes to the conflicts of others.

And once again, my friend, this is why they will never have their own country. They can dream about it but it will never happen for them. They will continue to live like the vermin they are.

This is disgusting.....it makes my blood boil when I think of our tax dollars going to these monsters!
Not that it will do any good...but I sent a email to the president voicing my disgust with the continued support of the Palestinians amidst their public displays of hatred for Americans.
