This week, Mahmoud Abbas ("Abu Mazen"), the Chairman of the Palestinian Authority, told a rally in Ramallah that the "moderate Palestinians" in the Fatah must understand that their job was to kill Israelis.
In fact, he stated, "We will not give up our principles and we have said that rifles should be directed against the [so-called Israeli] occupation."
Is that really what the moderate Arabs should be doing?
Will that bring about peace in the region?
Is this the man among the Arabs that the United States should trust? Is he any better than the arch-terrorist Arafat?

Sweet Tinkie seems to have found an article from 5 years ago.
Newspapers five years old are used for wrapping fish.

Hanood wishes to wreak another Holocaust, after having denied the Holocaust along with the despot Ahmadinejad.
Tinkerbell should be aware that as long as the Muslims continue to call for pushing Israel into the sea (or "eliminating Israel" in the words of Ahmandinejad), the Isrealis will continue to resist their efforts.
In the meantime, the Muslims have become stronger and better armed, and Israel remains determined to stay alive.
And Abbas (the new Arafat) cannot be trusted by the West.

Take Israel and all its people and put them in Texas. Would that be different? not at all. But instead of being Palestinian vs Israeli, it would be Texan vs Israeli.
Just look when people from New Orleans went to Texas after Katrina because they had no home anymore. People in Texas were mad and didn't want them there.
Would you give part of your courtyard so they can put Israel there With all their people, their politics, their laws and their religions?
If the answer is no. Then you're an anti-semitic and probably a terrorist too since you will most likely fight to keep your part of land.
If you say yes, good. But the majority won't and it's exactly what you got in Palestine.

well i think it needs a new answer besides 2,000 year old mutual destruction. How about if we move the border of Lebanon and Israel north a few hundred miles. Then draw a line from the West bank to somewhere north of the Dead Sea and Jerusalem and call the land north of it up to the more northern Lebanon border, Palestine. This way Israel will still have the Sinai and Palestinians will be happy tucked in next to Syria, Lebanon, and Jordan happy happy joy joy

This is common.
Muslim leaders will often call for peace in English and for war in
Arabic to local populations. This has happened in Syria and Lebanon as well.
You can only bring peace to Israel by eliminating all Muslims who feel the necessity to murder innocent people they've never met. Until then, no peace.

Peace there...pretty difficult ...especially with man like this one making those kinds of statemants:http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/pages/ShArt.jhtml?itemNo=202714...
The Palestinians are fighting against occupation,because they are under Israeli occupation...but unfortunately they chose to fight a fair war in a wrong way:I believe that there are other ways than killing innocent people on both sides...But unfortunately as long as we treat Israelis in a different way and we close our ways to all the injustices they make it is going to be pretty difficult to make peace there...
Dear Ivri things are no different from 10 years ago...The government is run by other people but the ideas seems to be the same....

And Condi Rice thinks he really wants to make peace with Israel. Who is she kidding?
Juhanah: The problem with moving Israel to Texas or Missouri or Germany or anywhere else is that Jews have no religious connection to these places. The Jewish holy city, the home of the Western Wall of the Second Temple, is Jerusalem.

Repeated carpet bombings for a month.
There's practically no peaceful way of bringing peace to that region. It would be like asking to stop a train that's falling down a bottomless pit. Even if you do put a barrier up, you know the train's either going to knock it aside, or it's just going to derail the train, and then continue to fall.
