UNDERSTAND AND CONDONE, HATE AND CONDESCEND

I'm so tired of those words.

For one thing, they assume that the person they are directed at doesn't know anything about history or Islam. I'm not going to write 800 words on the history of Islam and its conflicts with Judaism (which started while Mohammed was alive) and Christianity (which started right after his death). It's not because I couldn't, it's because I don't care.

Giant BUMP

Mr. Ringo is one of the few in the media (outside India and Israel) who knows what the blazes he is talking about.

The Israel-Palestinian thing is another that gets me. Do you ever hear the Israelis whining about the one-thriving Jewish communities which have disappeared from Cairo to Damascus to Baghdad? Know why? Because they found room for them in Israel. Jordan is the only Arab country which has found room for an appreciable number of Pallies. Had Israel played by Arab rules, there would've been no Palestinian problem after the 1967 War.

Obviously you did not read the artice. It says fundamentalists as being the ones who want us all either dead or Muslim. And they do. And every time I see Zionist I understand just where that person is coming from. The article is right on.

But you spewed another 18,000 words, must of which are not salient. What's your point?

These Jews were driven from the Arab nations post 1948

I assure you that most of these Jews had lived in those Arab counties for many more generations than the Palestinians lived in Israel/Palestine. Once Jews started moving to the area of Israel/Palestine is when Muslims started immigrating there      .......... Attracted by the increased economic activity the Jewish Zionists generated. Similar to the history of South Africa where the European settlers found a thinly populated territory.

This is actually a very good article, I did not know that Osama bin Laden also has plans to "reclaim" Spain. These Islamic idiots need to be confined to their own self-created pig stys, let them rot with their "religious" choices, if they choose to be backward it's fine with me but they should only live in the countries which are already Islamic and stay out of the others.

junk like this should be banned

Would you be the arbiter of what I should read? You may want to consider your response.
