These threads always give me the creeps. The chick was misguided, like many American college students. Reveling in her death is twisted IMO

She put herself in the path of a bulldozer, all in the name of defending terrorism.

If you can combine dead terrorist sympathizers with splattering bullzoer action, you've got to expect some frivolity.

Now, if it was an IDF steamroller instead of a bulldozer, it would be COMEDY GOLD!

Aren't there a lot of Anti-Zionist Jews? Is a liberal Jew a Jew hater? Is an hasidic Jew a Jew hater?
_______________________________________________
It is an interesting question.

There are some anti-zionist Jews, but far fewer than there used to be, at least that actually identify as Jews. And those that do are becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the anti-zionist movement because of the rabid anti-semitism within it. Let me give you an example--in Berkeley recently there was an anti-terror rally with an Israeli bombed out bus on display. The rally was countered with with an anti-Israel rally, including a group called Jews for Peace. Ok, fair enough--though strange that anyone would be pro-terror. The anti-Israel counter rally included Muslims with signs that called Israelis "organ thieves" and called Jews, not just Israelis, but Jews, descendents of pigs. One Muslim held a sign that had picture of a dead Israeli, underneath which was written "Pig"; and a dead Palestinian, underneath which was written "Human".

Some of the Muslims then physically assaulted the people holding the anti-terror, pro-Israel rally.

How stupid and uncomfortable do you think those "Jews for Peace" felt at that moment?

Is a liberal Jew a Jew hater? Yes, I do believe there is some self hatred going on, and certainly a lot of denial since the left has embraced radical islam. And many liberal Jews are not particularly observant, though that is really beside the point. I can speak to this, because I am a Jew by heritage and was raised a liberal; I abandoned liberalism for many reasons; but the embrace of radical Islam with its anti-semitic rantings by the left was the kicker.

I'm in Phoenix, but I would LOVE to show up and pass out pancakes.

Yes, many many people on the far left make me sick too.

Whenever I have seen the name Rachel Corrie, my mind always seems to pop up the words to the chorus of "Darlin' Corrie":

Dig a hole, Dig a hole in the meadow,
Dig a hole in the cold, cold ground.
Dig a hole, dig a hole in the meadow,
Gonna lay Rachel Corrie down."

[GeekDejure]

They hate you because you're infinitely more intelligent than they are . . . and better looking too !!! ;-))

This is a thread were the famous pancake is most appropriate. In fact, I hereby suggest that we start referring to the famous "Bunny-with-the-pancake-on-it's-head" as "Rachel"
