You were baking cookies for Chelsea with Hillary, I guess.
And your argument is, gee look how much better our weapons are. They must be on the side of truth.
The others hoped that the war of destruction against Israel would be successful.
I have met people who were expelled, and they "hoped" for no such thing.
Israel's historical situation is not like what occurred in Canada and the U.S.
Then don't bring it up in the first place, you idiot.
I don't know what persecution you're talking about
You mean you don't want to. The Israelis have a rather effective policy of shooting at and otherwise harassing journalists who seek to cover such events, and what is reported is far less than what is not.
Would your vision of a total seal include keeping IDF troops out of Palestinian areas? Would it include a no fly zone for Israeli jets and helicopters to overfly and bomb Palestinian areas?
???

I'm still waiting for that published book complete with documentation. Was it one or two by the way?

Follow the bouncing ball shill Musli idiot.

Are you denying the free press in Israel? Sounds like something only a blind-bat Musli shill would propagate. Insofar as the journalists are concerned. So you saw a documentary about journalists under fire. Or maybe you just read the post about it. Israel has condemned any activity by its forces which jeopardizes these journalists. On the other hand, I noticed the biggest whiners were a couple of Palestinian photographers and "journalists". Sounds like they were itching to be martyrs.
George Washington is the "Father of His Country."
Foreign policies serve countries. Countries take precedence over their foreign policies.
Like all Israel-firsters, you presume that America's purpose is to serve Israel's needs, through America's foreign policy.
Nor will they ever be. If you filter out the arabs from the Jewish communities, the jewish become 'pure' targets. Integration is essential.
Well you just shot your plan in the foot, didn't you?
Also noted, you want a total seal for Palestinians into Israeli areas, but 'limited' access to Israelis in the Palestinian areas. Please tell me WHO would be defining 'limited'. Yeah, I thought so.
Nope, they won't. This is the unilateral solution. It only takes one to tango. We shall see how well other solutions work out, since mine doesn't seem in play just yet.
You Islam firsters just don't get simple analogies. If your daddy said he wanted you to be a ditch-digger and only a ditch-digger would you follow his word. I didn't think so.
Foreign policies serve countries. Countries take precedence over their foreign policies.
Foreign policies are an outgrowth of domestic needs, economic and otherwise.
Like all Israel-firsters, you presume that America's purpose is to serve Israel's needs, through America's foreign policy.
The U.S. never served Israel except in the fictitious minds of Islam firsters like you. The U.S. never fought for the Jews in the War of Independence. Never fought in the 67 War or in the Yom Kippur War. In fact, the U.S. has shed blood fighting for your Arab Islamic friends (Desert Storm) and the consistent object of your Islamic friends' terrorism.
Perhaps this might explain her absence: "No current Freeper by that name." Try clicking on her screename and see.
That doesn't make any sense to me. You are not suggesting that some terrorists attacks are not occuring because an Arab might accidentally be somewhere around are you? In any event, there are about 1 million Israeli Arabs who won't be going anywhere.
Amos Oz
(1939 - )
Amos Oz was born in 1939 in Jerusalem. At the age of 15 he went to live on a kibbutz. He
studied philosophy and literature at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and was visiting fellow
at Oxford University, author-in- residence at the Hebrew University and writer-in-residence at
Colorado College. He has been named Officer of Arts and Letters of France. An author of
prose for both children and adults, as well as an essayist, he has been widely translated and is
internationally acclaimed. He has been honoured with the French Prix Femina and the 1992
Frankfurt Peace Prize. He lives in the southern town Arad and teaches literature at Ben Gurion
University of the Negev.
Amos Oz has rooted his writing in the tempestuous history of his homeland. Through his writing,
both fiction and nonfiction, runs a common thread: examining human nature, recognizing its frailty
but glorying in its variety, Oz consistently makes the plea for an end to ambivalence, for
dialogue, for a channelling of passions towards faith in the future. With an economy of words,
Oz presents the people of Israel, its political tribulations and biblical landscape. Newsweek
writes, “Eloquent, humane, even religious in the deepest sense, [Oz] emerges as a kind of
Zionist Orwell: a complex man obsessed with simple decency and determined above all to tell
the truth, regardless of whom it offends.”
