Look on the bright side. It's almost time for the NBA play-offs. The TV can still come in handy.

It's not up to the US, it's the Palestinian's call. They could have had their own turf and their own gov't and property taxes and sales taxes and income taxes like everyone else 55 years ago and any year since then. Even Hollywood is running out of sympathy.

Only the American Indians were so consistant in backing the wrong side in wars. Look where it got them.

Not lately. You seen the Diamondbacks record this season? We need a big winning streak just to get to the basement.

[WellsFargo94]

Once again, we run into the same old song and dance of "America is bad, but they'd better come here and solve our problems."

I had to double check the thread, thought it was a liberal comment!

Put some ice on it!

Palestinians don't need their "own state" at the moment,until they embrace a spirit of peace not likely to happen in this universe). This they will never do as long as snakes the likes of Arafat are running things. A "state" of their own would only serve the purposem of being a base from which to mount their terror attacks.

Pals have a state - it's called Jordan.

" The last time Saddam's representative handed out checks to Palestinians was last week."

Cashed that check yet?

["I'm stunned and appalled. I can't understand what is happening," said Rustum Abu Ghazalah, a 30-year-old shopkeeper in the center of Ramallah.]

What happened is your medieval buddies pissed us off, so we blasted them out of existence. Please take note and pass the word.

["This can't be true," grumbled Abu Ghazaleh. "Where are the suicide bombers? Where are the Fedayeen of Saddam? Where are the heroic Republican Guards?"]

Answers: DEAD. DEAD. DEAD.

Abba Eban: "The Palestinians never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity"

"Once again the Arabs have fallen victim to the lies of their leaders and media. We never learn from our mistakes. When the war erupted, I warned my sons not to watch Arab TV stations so they would not be disappointed and depressed when the truth eventually comes out."

Maybe your son should rejoice that the liars are being exposed and the oppressors are being toppled from power.

"Sahhaf reminded me of [Egyptian radio propagandist] Ahmed Said, who during the 1967 war, told us that the Israeli warplanes were falling like flies," said Abed al-Zamel, a 70-year-old retired schoolteacher from Silwad village near Ramallah. "Once again the Arabs have fallen victim to the lies of their leaders and media. We never learn from our mistakes. When the war erupted, I warned my sons not to watch Arab TV stations so they would not be disappointed and depressed when the truth eventually comes out."

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

ROTFLSHIPMP!

I would never cross a bridge this "Engineer" designed!

Ahem. An "engineer" in Palestine is a designer of suicide bomb belts.

[Grampa Dave]

This vile little Islamokazis haven't seen anything yet.

Next will be Syria. Iran will go on its own.

Without the money from Iraq and Iran to finance the Islamokazis, they will become basically harmless. The IDF is killing the top PA Islamofacists as fast as they can.

Soon the PAs will have no Islamofacist leadership and no money for the Islamokazis.

I would never cross a bridge this "Engineer" designed!

Heck, he could drive a train.

Or be a "sanitary engineer", that is, latrine orderly

Or......the list is endless.
