| Israelis spray Anti-Muslim graffiti on mosque |
| 2008-12-22 |
| Palestinian Muslim worshippers witnessed a second round of mosque desecration as they arrived at a mosque near the Jaffa Port only to discover graffiti on its doors with the words "Muhammad is a pig" and "Death to the Arabs" spray-painted. But why? They're such good neighbors! The Jaffa mosque graffiti marks the second desecration incident in December, following the desecration of mosques and cemeteries in Israeli-occupied West Bank villages by Jewish settlers. Islamic Movement representatives in Jaffa filed a complaint with the police. "The miserable and un-deterring punishments against those who carried out similar offenses only encourage their repetition," Sheikh Ahmed Abu Ajawa, head of the Islamic Movement's northern branch in Jaffa, told Yedioth news, adding that the incident was "a continuation of the incitement against Muslims and Arabs, in which senior politicians take part." |

| #10 Now if they'd used pigs blood for paint they would have shown that would have gotten a gold star for the effort but just spray paint? Well any gang in the US can spray paint any non-moving target. There really isn't much to it. |

| #8 Lets see... On one side you have a few spray painted building which happens to contain a mosque. On the other you have pregnant Jewish woman and her three children murdered in cold blood. Question: Which one gets more coverage by the ceespool media? |

| #6 The Israelis spray paint on a house of worship. The Palestinians spray bullets. I'm sure I could make a case for moral equivalency after another cup of coffee and removing part of my brain. |

| #5 Jews spraypaint Mosques. Mulsims burn Synagogues. I'm not sure they really should be complaining lest the Jews start playing with fire as well. The Arabs destroy Joesph's tomb without any repercussions. I'm telling you I'd seriously consider blowing up the Al Aqsa mosque if I was running Israel. Islam can't hate the Jews any more than they do. The world couldn't favor the Muslims any more than they do. |

| #2 Sounds like the Jews are getting tired of being the world's whipping boy. Can't say I blame 'em and expect more pushback. |
