"Nobody celebrates the death of Palestinian innocents."

Sure they do, when they dubbed them with the label "terrorists".

Roy- the innocent Palestinians that get killed are considered terrorists by Israeli soldiers?

Please explain why you're drawing some kind of equivalence between that and the Palestinians celebrating 9/11.

Nobody celebrates the death of Palestinian innocents.

Roy- the innocent Palestinians that get killed are considered terrorists by Israeli soldiers? Or are they fans of collective oppression? Cuz I heard they hated it.

2008-04-03T15:50:00.000-07:00

hmm...i think what Anon meant was that the Palestinians probably don't know what the world trade center was..that it's more a case of "they're experiencing what we experience when a group of lives are lost" kind of thing. If anything, the US gave aid to the oppression which was/is directly carried out by israel.

it's understandable for a small crowd to cheer when their oppressors (US) fall

The people in the World Trade Center were oppressing the Palestinians?

Or are they just big fans of collective punishment?

Cuz I heard they really hated it.

2008-04-02T18:18:00.000-07:00

Ok, for those who have reading comprehension skills- I said, "not only profound- but carries more weight in time and space" Meaning, it has been reoccuring since the 1980s (time) and at various educational institutions (space), making it a precedent goal of Israel to deprive Palestinians the right to education. And Programmer craig, again, the garbage, which you poorly claim as evidence of your disillusionment, are only one-time occurences which doesn't effect the lives of Israelis. Cheering in streets and having puppet shows by extremists does not add up death tolls. Given how many jews felt relief with the downfall of Nazis, it's understandable for a small crowd to cheer when their oppressors (US) fall. But now that I see your hostility towards other posters, I know I'm wasting my time with an arrogrant prick.

It's the casual face of genocide, attacking students like this.

Hello-

This is your monthly reminder to ignore the postings of programmer craig, a pathetic little wanker who has nothing whatsoever to add the discussion and whose shrivelled heart beats faster each time some well-meaning soul responds to his provocations.

Recall please the final couplet of a fine Lewis Carroll poem:

"He only does it to annoy
Because he knows it teases."

That is all. Have a nice day.

2008-04-02T11:18:00.000-07:00

and programmer, don't assume every American shares your prejudice and ignorance.

I'm sure you have your own prejudice and ignorance, guns :D

There isn't any issue that ALL Americans agree on. But one thing i s for sure, Palestinians aren't very popular in the US, and that's not going to change any time soon. And that is nobody's fault but theirs. Arafat knew he was permanently screwed, the minute those images started playing on television.

2008-04-02T11:06:00.000-07:00

But anon 9:29 that would be applying the same standard to everyone irrespective of nation. That simply would not do.

2008-04-02T10:20:00.000-07:00

I think the garbage HAMAS pumps out on it's private television channel is pretty profound too, anonymous. Profoundly hateful. Is that the kind of "political activism" that caused Palestinian Schools to be closed down in the past? I'm getting sick and tired of seeing these damn video clips that preach terrorism and murder coming out of Palestine. You are OK with that? The generation of Americans who will give Palestinians another chance hasn't been born yet. We Americans ALL saw the video of Palestinians dancing in the streets in Lebanon and the occupied territories, as the world trade center fell. We ALL saw that. And none of us will ever forget it. That's the PROFOUND reality on the ground here, even if most people won't say it out loud. Videos like this one just keep OUR hatred going. Or do you believe Arabs are the only ones capable of hate?

2008-04-02T09:29:00.000-07:00

Sadly, the real truth, which is not only profound- but carries more weight in time and space in illustrating the daily lives of the Palestinian students gets over-ridden by the garbage posted by programmar craig. An occurence which if done by Israelis would be dismissed as a "one-time episode that is irrepresentative and shoudn't be generalized to the entire populace."

2008-04-02T07:48:00.000-07:00

Education of Palestinians is proceeding just fine.

GAZA (Reuters) - Brandishing "the sword of Islam", a Palestinian boy stabbed President George W. Bush to death in a new puppet show for children aired by Hamas-owned television in the Gaza Strip.

This is something I didn't know.

My heart goes out to the Palestinians trying to get an education and the Palestinians trying to educate their children.

Inna lillahi wa inna ilahi raji'un. may allah forgive abdellatif and grant him jennat al firdaus.

What would be the purpose of attempting to keep a population uneducated? What would be the purpose of cutting of access to means of working at supporting life for an entire population, bit, by bit, bit? What would be the purpose of cutting off everything a population would find absolutely necessary to survive?

Would it be, as our resident hywan Roy suggests they should do, to get the Palestinians to end a "war".... or to start one?
