GAZA CITY, Gaza, Oct 19, 2001 (United Press International via COMTEX) -- Israeli troops on Saturday entered the West Bank town of Tulkarem An Qalqilya, which had been under control of the Palestinian Authority. Israeli troops now occupy the towns of Jenin, Ramallah, Bethlehem, Beit Jala and Beit Sahour, and have seized additional positions once controlled by the PA.

Every new President needs to go through the tedious and predictable process of calling the "palestinians" bluff.

You left out the part where President Bush says he supports a palestinian state "as long as the Palestinians recognize Israel's right to exist."

The "palestinians" don't, and won't. The resolutions are moot.

Good! I hope Israel enters the East Bank as well.

They're Islamics (that false religion who has Allah as Satan) -- as that's what drives their hatred towards the U.S. and against the Jews and Israel. So, if they're [the non-existent] Palestinians, or Arabs or Afghanistan mujahadeen, or recruits of Osama bin Laden -- they're all the same as Islamics -- who believe in eliminating all Jews, destroying the state of Israel, killing Americans and destroying America.

Babble, babble, babble. So they were “non-existent Palestinians”. Wow! You’ve got the whole situation right in the grasp of your hand!

What are you going to do then, when the Messiah returns to Israel and set up His Kingdom and rules over you and the U.S. from His capital in Jerusalem?

He will tell me when the time is. Hollywood won’t tell me. You are following the wrong media.

Hey, you’ve been converted to Zionism. You’re quoting the Old Testament.

Why is it not the right time? Because it might offend our coalition partners? So what? They are not our allies and never will be. Israel is and always has been.

You are correct about Israel, however, tell me what you think of post #39.

I would suggest giving them back their houses, their shops, their land, and their house lots first.

Clearly, I have caught the spirit of the Late Minister's opinion, since you can't refute his beliefs. Yes, silly, I know that Israel has a different system than ours. Let me explain to you what I meant: we would never have a man in our Cabinet who espouses such racial hatred. We would never have a man who wanted to deport citizens who do not share the right ethnicity. And we would never demolish homes to "Teach the community a lesson" when we couldn't catch trouble makers. Sorry, champ, Israel is not a multi-ethnic democracy like ours. It's a democracy for only one group, more akin to the old South Africa than today's America.

Sure. Your spit polish is legendary. Shoes just don't look as good since you left. But, you should have known fondling clients calves was a no no.

Look up Zionist in any dictionary.

Well, in that sense -- Jesus is a Zionist. He only used the Old Testament [never read the New Testament or used it... :-) ]. And He's coming back to rule as King (as the Old Testament says... And ya know, all Christians will be ruling with Jesus Christ -- in the Kingdom that He sets up on earth, in Israel.

You keep comparing Israel's democracy to America's, and seem to think it's noteworthy that ours is better.

Of course it's better, no one's arguing differently.

But the government of Isarel is the most free, democratic, and humane in the entire Middle East, bar none.

Why is your anti-Israel sentiment your focus here, and not a more appropriate condemnation of the Islamic dictatorships that surrond it?

Uhhh, can you give me a New Testament quote to back up that claim? Not a Hollywood movie quote, but a Bible quote.

Hey, take a look at this........ “If you tame the beast correctly, he may crouch and wait for you. But you will rule over him. And you will learn to use his resources for your gain.”

The “beast” is anyone they don’t like but live among. Zionists teach their kids this stuff. If you disagree with them in any way, you become the “beast”.

This is a Zionist website.

Easy: we are asked to support Israel because it "shares our values". But looked coldly, when a Cabinet Member calls people "lice", and wants to deport them all -Israeli Arabs, Palestinian Arabs- to make the land ethnically pure, I call into question whether they do in fact "share our values". And from your answers, apparently they don't. So why support them. I don't support the Mid-Eastern countries, and don't want to. I don't care a whit about them. Bring the troops back from Saudi Arabia. Leave the region. Let them bleed themselves; it'd matter as much to America as the war in Bosnia did. We don't need the Middle East for anything, so let them stew on their own. All of them.

I hope your analysis proves to be correct. Everyday I read something that Powell says that totally sets me off and I have to remind myself that he is President Bush's SOS, not a freelance and Bush is a good man who can be trusted. I believe that the coalition exists for expediency only...it's not born of a shared set of values, morals and beliefs. We'll see what the future holds.

That being said...there is no honor in abandoning Israel, and I'll scream like a banshee any time I think we're heading down that road. Israel is one of our most faithful ally and should be treated as such.

We don't have allies, we have interests. Serbia was a staunch ally - fought the Nazis, broke away from the Soviets. They were our allies until it was no longer in our interests. As long as Israel does what we want, we'll protect them.
