But they never hurt anyone, really: You know those “crude, home-made rockets” that the media keep on yammering about? The ones that “rarely kill or hurt anyone”? Well, turns out that over the past two years, they’ve hurt over 300 Israelis—most of them, of course, civilians.
If it’s Friday, this must be the violent “peace” protest: Yes, the ISM and their league of peaceful protesters once again rioted against the fence in Bil’in, and once again hurt policemen and had to be forcibly repulsed. (They’re repulsive regardless, so that’s kind of redundant, but hey.)
The protesters threw stones at security forces and attempted to damage the fence using ladders.
So, the throwing of stones at security forces—how, exactly, does that constitute a protest against the fence? Just asking.
Be afraid. Be very afraid. The UN is going to map the Shebaa Farms area. Not, like, actually sending someone there to survey and map it. Nope. They’re gonna do it from UN HQ in NY. Hands up, anyone who reads this blog and doesn’t think Israel is going to get screwed over this.
Uh-huh.
Yeah. Pull the other one. The U.S. is once again teaching the palestinians how to shoot. Once again, Israeli civilians and soldiers will pay the price. Wait for it.
And by the way, Ha’aretz has that article under “Diplomacy.” Shyeah. Right. Diplomacy.
The Bush administration has undertaken efforts to arm and train the Presidential Guard of Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas in order to prepare it for a potential violent confrontation with Hamas forces in the Gaza Strip.
Uh-huh. Just like that civil war that broke out a few weeks ago. Oh, wait. It never did get to civil war. Because it won’t. The palestinians are united by a common hatred of Israel. It’s the glue that binds all the little sociopaths together. And now, Uncle Sam is teaching them how better to kill Israelis. Just like they did in the 1990s. Great.
But it was only Jews so that doesn’t count.
This is not the first time the US is training Palestinians to shoot.
By Tenet’s CIA, during the Clinton Admin and again during Bush’s first term.
I did not shed a tear when the three State Department twerps were wasted in Gaza while passing out Fulbrights.
I will not weep if the CIA has to bring back a few employees in the cargo after handing Force 17 thugs guns and ammo.
Lay with dogs, die like dogs.
Hey, the Bush administration is also training and provisioning an entire Arab army in Iraq. Guess where their guns are going to be aimed at as soon as US troops are out of the country?
