| The Simon Wiesenthal Center expressed horror at the forthcoming inauguration of an exhibition entitled "Body Milk," glorifying female suicide bombers, to open at the Antonopoulou Gallery in Athens. According to the daily newspaper ’Ta Nea’, this pink lace embroidery montage displays an Arab woman and her bomb belt "heroically" obliterating an Israeli supermarket. Brave Dame Robin killed the wicked infants and deadly civilians
In the ’Ta Nea’ interview, the organizer, Thessaly University Architecture Professor Alexandros Psychoulis is quoted: "I feel that the experiment of Israel has failed... but politics do not concern me in this work, only the relations between the woman and the supermarket - what is it that ultimately makes her feel pleasure in this place?... The title ’Body Milk’ brings together both female cosmetics and the human milk of an 18-year-old Palestinian girl bomber in an Israeli supermarket last March. A very beautiful girl, educated, in love... of an army of women in the women’s space of the supermarket... the supermarket is a super female provider. If she blows herself there, she is magnifying her existence and her act." How does that "magnify" her existence? Psychoulis acknowledges his wife’s inspiration for presenting the exhibit in pink, as "black would be tragic. With pink one can say the most tragic thing in the lightest way." How is mass murder a light matter!? In a letter to Greek Prime Minister, Kostas Simitis, the Center’s Director for International Liaison, Dr. Shimon Samuels, stated that "over 450 innocents, including women, children, elderly have been murdered and thousands maimed by suicide terrorists in the last three years in Israel - the most recent only four days ago in a jointly Jewish and Arab owned restaurant in Haifa." "So get rid of that fucking abomination!" For an abomination that exhibit is. Samuels continued: "This exhibit will continue to poison the Athenian climate, adding to the antisemitic campaign currently underway in the Greek media. This can only encourage eventual violence in Greece itself, for the scourge of global terrorism is indivisible." Is eventual violence what the moonbat in question wants? The Center demanded that Simitis "take immediate measures to abort this obscenity insensitive to atrocity and human life itself. Failure to act will show the world that Greece has lost its soul." The loss of such a treasure as the soul is catastrophic. "In consequence," the letter concluded, "the prospect for terrorism will have been enhanced in the context of the approaching Olympics. Indeed, the very ideals represented by the Olympic flame will have been impugned in the land of their birth." How tragic a fall. For further information, please contact Dr. Samuels at +33.609.77.01.58. What’s Aris’ take on this? |

| #5 "I feel that the experiment of Israel has failed... but politics do not concern me in this work, only the relations between the woman and the supermarket - what is it that ultimately makes her feel pleasure in this place? -Yeah, that's always the first thing I wonder when a suicide bomber murders women and children in a supermarket. This guy's a F*ck'n douche bag. If she blows herself there, she is magnifying her existence and her act." -Actually she's extinguishing her existence and the existence of the poor people she murdered but why split hairs. Bunch of rubbish. |

| #4 Why is Simon Wiesenthal writing to the Prime Minister? Typical European mentality. As for the exhibit itself. F&%# it! Let the idiots have their little exhibit. Publicize it. Show the world what happens when you go compeletely insane. |

| #3 I'd be in favor of distributing explosive belts with 4 ounces of explosives and shrapnel on the interior faces only. |

| #2 Wait a minute. In Iraq the BBC is crying that we have shirked our duty because not all the women are safe yet. The plight of Afghan women has improved little since the fall of the Taleban, according to the human rights organisation Amnesty International. Why would we need to proetect women that are blowing the place up? We have met my first goal for the post-Taliban age: no more executions in the soccer stadium. My next goal was to shut down the poppy trade. I figured that once the gunmen's money dried up it would be safer daily for men women and children throughout. Maybe it would be safer for everone if we just issued everbody suicide belts. We would have detente again on a personal level. Islam puts a lot of restictions on women but it seems to be OK for them to strap explosives on under their burkas. Let's roll with it. |

| #1 I wouldn't say that it magnified her existence, rather that it spread her existence over a larger expanse of land. |
