Yea he's innocent. I'm sure the video tapes of the murders were "doctored".

While listening to the radio over the weekend, I heard a show where callers were supporting Palestinians. One guy claimed that suicide bombers were victims of mind-control by the Mossad. The bombings were then used as an excuse for the Israeli military to kill more Palestinians.
While we are urged to "turn the other cheek" it is also told in the Bible that "there is a time to fight, and a time to die". I think that is the only way we can deal with this kind of thinking.

El-Awadly, Omar and Adam have reservations to fly back to California Aug. 20 and an appointment later that month to be interviewed by immigration authorities considering their citizenship request. Hundred bucks says that she comes back and her "citizenship request" is approved.
Any takers?

Puts me in mind of that Egypt Air flight that crashed, where the only sensible explanation anyone could come up with was that one of the pilots did it on purpose, and yet everyone involved in Egypt denied that this was even a possiblility. It's a mindset that says that saving face and casting the best possible light on your family, countrymen or co-religionists is more important than dealing the reality of truth.

"I don't know now whether I am going back or not. Our lives are upside down," El-Awadly said.Let me help you out with this one: stay right where you in the Bizarro World, where you can claim your husband was innocent and people will believe you!

This is the same Arabic mindset that says or thinks Dodi and Diana were assassinated, or that the US made up the blame for 9-11 on Arabs, who were not really the perpretrators.
Such a mindset is not limited to Arabs.

"In America, they hate Islam and Arabs after Sept. 11."That's the truth sistah! Man, we are just so silly! I mean, you guys just loved us before Sept. 11, right?
By the way, did anyone notice the name of this author?

El-Awadly said she can't wear black, mourn or cry because she had not yet told her sons Omar 12, and Adam, 7, any of what had happened.She said she did not believe her husband was responsible for the shooting and was being blamed because he was Arab and Muslim.
"He is a victim of injustice," she said three times. "In America, they hate Islam and Arabs after Sept. 11."
"We became very cautious, and sometimes scared.
"I don't know now whether I am going back or not. Our lives are upside down," El-Awadly said.
Looking pale and with her graying hair disheveled, she at first slammed the door of her parents' downtown Cairo apartment in the face of a reporter.
"I'm in a state of shock, I feel I'm having a nervous break down," she said in a voice choked with tears. "Pray for us please."
Somebody hand me a Kleenex, please.
Yes folks, it's all in there.....Repeat after me, "Arabiphobia causes terrorism, Arabiphobia causes terrorism..........."

Given the advances in PET/MRI and other non-invasive brain scanning technologies, I wonder if it is possible to detect/measure this type of dementia.Yes, it is. First you look to see if the subject is prone to going around with a towel or table cloth on his/her head. If the answer is "yes', then you know the dementia is present.

Why would anyone take that bet? You are absolutely right!
And if her citizenship request (or whatever else she wants from the US government) is denied, some lawyer will be glad to file a big civil suit on her behalf.

Not going to lose that hundred bucks. I think you're probably right. What's more, she'll probably get some sort of money compensation from some agency for her husband's "wrongful" death, or some such nonsense.
To: San Jacinto
An excellent point. I believe the technical term is "observation". Someone should tell the FBI.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
"She said she did not believe her husband was responsible for the shooting and was being blamed because he was Arab and Muslim."
That's right. Because he was an Arab Muslim, he felt compelled to get a gun, kill some innocent civilians and commit an act of terrorism. I agree with her. If he wasn't an Arab Muslim, he wouldn't be blamed because he wouldn't have done it!!

You forgot the Egypt Air, the co-pilot crashed it down, and the Egyptian government was too sensitive about its Islam; it had to reject all the proof that El Batouty had intentionally killed all the passengers, in the name of Allah.
Again, we see how this woman, and the Egyptian media is too careful not say that this Moslem piece of S##t was simply full of hate, and was out to kill Jews. We are feeding this Egyptian population, and propping up its worthless government, and still unable to get an honest assessment from their media/government that some of their people are influenced by radical Islamists to commit acts of terrorism! The US must close the gate to all Moslems, specially from Egypt!
