#1 Why do I perceive the smell of large scale violence wafting in the air ??
One more multi casualty act of terror and I think Abbas is going to learn the true meaning of following in Arafat's footsteps.

#2 This moment has been long in coming, with no surprises except that Arafat finally fucking died. Why on Earth would anyone think there should be some grace period? Everyone knows what they are going to do - or not - already. Let's just tell the Paleos to get on with failure, the marching about, the seething, the internal struggles for Chief Murderer, etc.

Finish the Fence.

#3 I'm not sure I can take more of this "threaten raid" and "raid" in retaliation for terrorist attacks. Nothing Israel does is ever going to get the rest of the world to like them, so screw it.

Just announce that the next terrorist attack results in a total war of expulsion of all Jordian and Egyptian squatters in these "territories" and then the next time some knucklehead takes a shot at somebody, do it.

Then tell Egypt and Jordan that any cross border attacks by their citizens will be taken as an act of war. The last war.

Syria can be told the same thing regarding the Hizbolla armpit in Southern Lebanon.

Grrrr.

#4 LotR - Lol! I just got thru ranting about Iran and how the Prez can't just fly off the handle and whack 'em cuz I (we) want him to... and you go and post something similar for Sharon - and I find myself agreeing with every word! Shit! Lol!

#5 I agree com. Finish the fence, stop supporting them, seal the border, and let them rot. F-em!

#6 .com - LOL, sorry about that. I was reading about that family in NJ on another thread and resisted posting something really nasty, then came down here and it looks like I vented some. :)

Go on and try to be reasonable, though. I'm just raving in the corner this morning. Pass the coffee and ammunition, though. *g*

#7 Lol - sounds like a good plan to me, bro! Sigh. So much shit, so few actual options out there in the *cough* real world. Clearly, however, Sharon should do whatever needs doing - he has everything to gain and nothing to lose. ;-)

#8 There was a small news snippet on the local TV news last night that claimed that Mazen has said he was going to crack down on terrorism and terrorist groups operating on his territory. Well, he better get a leg up, 'cos time's a wastin'....
