Yeah... there's a lot of stuff in the Bible.

There's also a part where a guy rides a chariot made of fire.

Do they want the whole package? A contiguous pallee-stinian state? An Israel whose only border is with pallee-stein? Israel North and Israel South?

From the “speech”:

“with permanent Palestinian borders with Israel, Jordan, and Egypt, and permanent Israeli borders with Palestine”

“Palestinian ... in a sovereign and contiguous state. “

Given their history, this is very, very sad and self-destructive.

I am willing to recognize the borders of Spain of 1084, the year before the fall of Toledo.

If we agree to call a dog’s tail a leg, how many legs does a dog have?

Four. Call it whatever you want, pass all the laws you want, issue all the UN declarations to want, its still a tail, and a dog still has only four legs.

The two state solution was instituted the day Israel was born; Jordan for the arab palestinians, and Israel for the jewish palestinians. The third state sandwiched between them, with no economy, no sources of employment, no industry, that lives by whatever it can shake down by threatening terrorism, is not a viable state and will never be one.

Spain chose the dark side the day they elected Zapatero. We did the same when we elected Obama. We’ve still got a chance to set it right, and we’d better get it rightt his time or bad things will happen.

War is coming, whatever we do. I don’t think we have a choice of preventing war. Our only choice is whether or not we are on the right side of it.

Well in that case Spain needs to reinstate Generalissimo Francisco Franco who was head of state in Spain in 1967, and is still dead.

Dig him up and jumpstart him.

Took the words right out of my mouth! But then I would have to change my name from Ruy to Yusuf Ben Texum.

Great minds think alike! I wish I knew where I lost mine!

Spain must be running back to the Moslems for some weird reason after 600 years.

They look like they are already pre-burkaed in that photo. All they’re missing is the black hood with eye slits.
