Abbas warns of Palestinian anger "explosion"
2006-05-16
STRASBOURG, France (Reuters) - President Mahmoud Abbas warned on Tuesday of an "explosion of anger" among Palestinians if international donors did not move fast to restore aid cut off in recent weeks.
These clowns have been exploding (literally) for years. So what else is new?
International donors including the European Union and the United States have suspended aid to the Palestinian Authority because of the Hamas-led government's failure to renounce violence and recognise Israel since coming to power in March.
In other words, they have been exploding... usually around women and children.
The EU, the Palestinians' largest dhimmi donor, has been charged with coming up with a way of restarting aid for the most urgent needs while bypassing Hamas officials. But the EU acknowledges it could take weeks to get a new aid mechanism working.
I might feel worse if we had elected Theodore Kaczynski president. But we didn't, we threw him in a supermax.

"Life will be frozen and there will be an explosion of rat-poison-coated nail bombs anger and this would lead to a chaotic situation of which we cannot forsee the results," Abbas told a news conference after a speech to the European Parliament in the French city of Strasbourg.
I think I can forsee the results. My magic 8-ball must be better than his.

"I would like to adopt the mechanism as quickly as possible so the crisis does not take place," he added.
So the exploding will take place at regular intervals instead of a big clump?
"We are waiting, but we hope that we do not have to wait too long. We are in a race against time and therefore we have to be swift in the steps we undertake in order to avoid this catastrophe," he said.
A hurricane is a catastrophe. A tsunami is a catastrophe. Idiots blowing themselves up by choice is not a catastrophe. They are the wages of insanity and sin. IMHO, of course.

#13  The guy's in Strasbourg. If he goes back home, he's obviously a fool in addition to being a beggar.

#12  Dang...I would have thought there would have to have been a prolonged period of seethingTM before the explosion??

#11  We really should listen to them or else they may be tempted to become terrorist, hmm, nevermind.

#10  If Abbas doesn't watch out, Hamas will make sure his head does all the exploding. The irony of that is nothing short of heart-warming. All of these "warnings" are nothing but sheer, naked blackmail. The Palestinians have dug themselves deep into a cesspit of their own design. May they all rot in eternal flaming he||.

#9  About time for him to realize that he is totally irrelevant and the only people other than Palestinians who could be hurt by a Palestinian anger explosion, the Israelis, are on the other side of an anger explosion proof wall. If you get too angry, the deliveries of gas, water, and electricity from Israel will stop. Then you can seethe, hot, thirsty and perennially in the dark.

#6  Explosion is just what we had in mind. I certainly wish we still had the 16 inch firepower of Iowa, Wisconsin , or Missouri available. We could park off the coast, and using computerised grid coordinates just blanket that hellhole until nothing was left but granulated sand. That's my concept of Palestinian explosions.

#5  Explode or implode?

Excessive anger is the norm for Paleos.

#3  Palestinian "anger"? What a novel concept!
But we've all been there and done that.
Here's a couple you could maybe try. "Please"? And "thank you"? Maybe not blow people up?
Naaaaaaaaaaaah...

#2  Think of it as an opportunity for mass learning, o Palestinians. You don't get aid because you commit terrorist murders. Stop committing terrorist murders and you can anticipate aid resuming.

#1  Meh. Go ahead. Explode. You only have each other to kill. We will sit back with popcorn and enjoy the fireworks.
