No peace today says Hamas

If they wanted peace they wouldn’t have fired 25 rockets into Israel today.

A car was struck in Beersheba injuring four civilians in violation of international humanitarian law. Expect MSM condemnation when Satan buys snow shoes.

Yes to Palestine, no to Hamas.

See if you can spot the subtle differences between a pro-Israel protest and a pro-Palestine one.

If Hamas as the representatives of Palestine wanted peace.

Then 12 rockets, and 5 mortars would not have hit Israel today including one hit on an educational insititute which was not sheltering military assets.

All they have to do is stop attacking Israel and it all stops.

What the story doesn’t say.

Israel and Lebanon had a prisoner exchange.

The Lebanese got some terrorists back and a pile of bodies of those who had been killed attack Israel and Israel got back two Israelis that were captured by Hezbolah.

what they neglected to mention was that they decided to kill the Israelis rather than hand them back alive.

One of the hard and fast rules that has keep Israel alive for over 6 decades is not negotiating with terroists. Not sure this new policy of bending over and taking it is actually in Israels best interests. Maybe they should kill their prisoners before exchanging them too.

A snapshot of cultures.

JERUSALEM – A Palestinian gunman opened fire in a Jewish religious school in Jerusalem on Thursday, killing at least eight people and wounding about 10 in the most lethal attack in Israel in two years, emergency services said.

…

Jerusalem police chief Aharon Franco said a lone gunman carried out the attack and was killed by an off-duty Israeli army officer who lives nearby and ran to the school after hearing gunfire. Police had said earlier there were two gunmen.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, but it was greeted with celebrations in the Gaza Strip,

where a recent Israeli offensive killed more than 120 Palestinians, about half of whom were identified as civilians.

In this story there is heroism. Who is it?

There is also a sick culture of hate. Who is that?

There is an attempt to excuse the murder of children (just the Jewish ones) with “spin”. Who and why?

Discuss.

Extra credit given for a resonable explaination for the contention that: It is good to kill children if they are Jews.

You may use reason and logic to form your arugment. You may not use and media outlet as a source.

If you are unable to complete this assignment you may be a human being.

And finally something very important to remember;

When you sent your kids off to school this morning did you fret that they might not come home tonight?

“Israelis’ lives are not expendable.”

Unless the Israeli government doesn’t want to rock the boat? Not according to this guy.

In Ashkelon, Israel, resident Moshe Nissimpor decided:

that the best way to halt rocket fire from Gaza – in light of what he terms the government’s failure to do so – is some vigilante justice. Nissimpor developed a homemade 200-millimeter ballistic missile which he planned to launch from Ashkelon into the Gaza Strip.

“From this day onwards, we will push back to the stone age every place which dares shoot missiles into Israel’s sovereign territory,” he said Wednesday. “It is time the world understood Israelis’ lives are not expendable.”

I want to marry him and have his babies.

Israel it doesn’t matter wwhat you do you will be condemed for. Its a shit load easier to live with being condemed for winning than being condemed for being dead.

Give it some thought.

Go read this. (With thanks to Imshin).

Push De Button!

I meant to look for it on Youtube, and kept forgetting. I was reminded, however, at quite an unexpected place – thanks, Julian

This is Israel’s notorious entry to Eurovision. BTW, the correct name of the band is not Teapacks, but Tipp-ex. Follow the “Misuse” link on the Tipp-ex Wiki entry for a, um, tip on the possible reason for that particular name for the band, and also for the possible reason why it may be deliberately misspelled in Europe.

Phew…

…says Imshin. I agree:

The horror of the facts on the ground is one thing, and Jimmy Carter’s response to them is quite another. The former president is hard to read without taking into account the southern US context. A partial explanation for his see-and-hear-no-evil view of the world can be found in southern guilt over the maltreatment of blacks. Carter’s chief of staff, Hamilton Jordan, heard his first briefing on the Middle East in 1977 and offered, “I get it: the Palestinians are the niggers.”

It’s all the Jews’ fault.

I am not at all surprised at Blair jumping on that particular wagon, but conversely, I do believe that Howard is made of a somewhat different cloth. That’s why I find the placement of the second set of quotation marks in the following sentence particularly puzzling:

“Far more importantly … let us intensify our efforts towards a sustainable and just solution to the Palestinian issue,” which is fueling anti-Western sentiment among Muslims, Howard said.

Or is it just me?
