Guess they are going to have to cross ANFO off their IED list.

Funny, they are only about 100 miles from Saudi Arabia and its oil fields. Wha' happen?

No one sees an irony in that Jews have to supply oil products to Arabs?

We do now, and thanks for pointing that out!

Obviously they were a minority, insufficient to call their neighbours bastards for daring to celebrate such a tragedy.

I'm sure the Arab world will just run with all their oil money to sustain the Palestinians.

And, if I were an Israeli, I would have stopped selling the murderers gas decades ago.

Israel controls all the borders, they decide what goes in or out. This could be relaxed of course if the Palestinians would stop trying to import bombs and guns.

No, you're wrong.

Thanks to Rice, Israel does not control the Rafah Crossing between Gaza and Egypt.

Which begs the question about the "suffering Palestinians" and all their shortages: why doesn't aid come from Egypt?

The Egyptians are too busy fighting amongst themselves.

Israel has cameras there. There are Europeans stationed there.

There are articles after articles- many posted here- about all the arms that are being smuggled into Gaza through that crossing.

Why doesn't aid flow there from the Arab World?

We are not dealing here with anything that needs to enter Israel. There is no impediment for goods to flow from Egypt to Gaza. What's the excuse?

FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.

Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.

Most other Arabs like the Palestinians about <-> this much more than they like the Jews. I don't know about Abbas, but Arafat stole all the money given to the PA. Hamas I think would at least not steal the money but they'd spend it on killing Israelis. So, nobody wants to give the PA anything.

I do think that they need to have basics like electricity, water, food and fuel though. I think cutting them off from that would be dangerous and cruel.

You're right, though, let someone else pay for it, not us or the Europeans. Let Iran pay.

Why does the Arab Israeli conflict dominate the news?

During the Cold War is was said the it could trigger the next World War. But what about now? Why is it of any interest? Why is there a Quartet?

Because it is said that anti American and Western feeling are aroused by the Arab's love and care for the "treatment" of the "Palestinians".

That is proven to be a lie. They hate Israel. But there care not a wit about the "Palestinians".

That's the Arab and Islamic World.

So why does the Western World and the US Administration continue to make it a front burner issue and always at Israel's expense?
