"My favorite is how the 'refugee camp' has running water, television, electricity, parking spaces for cars, etc."

They took out the water and electricity, but at least there's plenty of parking now.

Fakhri Turkman, a Palestinian Legislative Council member and the head of an emergency committee set up to help camp residents, criticized Human Rights Watch and other groups who did not use the term "massacre" to describe the Israeli operation.

"Sometimes we call it a massacre when you kill one innocent person," he told The Associated Press on Thursday.

If it's not a large number of people, then it is not a massacre.
Now that the Palestinian propaganda machine can't get reality to support their false accusations, they attempt to redefine words to fit their lies.
Pathetic.

Actually, in this case, the media didn't buy into it at all.

However, it is now time for you to finally pretend you have a shred of intellectual honesty and admit that the Jenin "massacre" never occurred.

That's a joke, right? Jew haters never concede anything.

I believe one Israeli life counts for somewhere in the neighborhood of a couple thousand American lives. If I'm not mistaken, there was an article on the phenomenon recently.

That is untrue and utterly offensive. I am shocked you would write it.

Don't be offended ... I'm merely paraphrasing a paragraph from a mainstream news source. I'll try and dig up the article on it if I can find it for you.

You aren't paraphrasing, you are prevaricating. There is a difference, little stepper. I am offended that you didn't even have the intelligence necessary to at least be a little ambiguous. Or did you MEAN it to be so unintelligent so that your worshippers would understand your bedazzle,(which can't include anything over 2 syllables, like)?
It is certainly clear that your intent was ugly. Ugly seems to be your footsoldiers' forte'.

Lol. Your protestations are a bit worn. Once you posted Israel views from www.ukar.org, claiming you didn't know anything about the site. This is on their frontpage, as I reminded you at the time:

Oh, and guess what? Ukar.org is something like in the top ten on the wiesenthal watchlist :).

I defer always to your and other Thread Cleansers' expertise in making all the right conspiratorial connections. It is the game you play.

But, just as a site like this from a liberal "watch list" is usually correct but sometimes evidences wrong thinking -- whether it's support for prostitution, genocide, ESCR or the deconstruction of our Constitution depending how folks' emotions and faith is twisted sometimes -- sites that are largely wrongheaded can sometimes have a nugget of truth embedded within.

In fact, were I a professional idealogue and shaper of public opinion, it would behoove me to load the the Wrong Sites with all manner of truth I didn't want a part of any equation. Easier to indict all facts or genuine argument therein wholesale.

Is the National Council of Jewish Women on the Weisenthal watch list as well? Given their political profile and their strident support for the legal murder of unborn Jewish children per the likes of Margaret Sanger and her buddy Hitler, perhaps they ought to be.

Uh.. did I hear you correctly? You say that www.ukar.org is "usually correct"?

Lol. Gotcha ;).
