#1 FREEREPUBLIC.com > NANCY PELOSI > ZARKEY'S death changes little or nothing about Dubya or Amer's probs in Iraq. FR also reports that Zark's DNA will be tested by Quantico and has arrived in Quantico for such.

#10 I don't care where "sis" is located, if she publically grieves over this piece of shit and supports his work, that makes her a legitimate *target*. Finish her off, and wrap her remains in bacon grease.

#11 The kids next door pelting the journalos is a nich touch... how paleostinian of them (70% of jordanians are actually "palestinians", IIRC)! This is truly an ingrained arab trait, found everywhere there's a Youth to pick up a stone, and an infidel to aim at, be it an european no-go area, or garbage-dump zarqa.

Slightly OT : I once read that the fact that young (arab) muslims stone jews (even if they're soldiers) has an HUGE symbolic value in muslim lands, some kind of recovered honor... since one of the traditional unwritten laws of dhimma is that muslim kids grow up bullying dhimmis, adult included, notably by stoning them at will... to remind them that even a muslim children is superior to an adult unbeliever.
So, the pelting of jews is some kind of restoration of the broken natural order (jews being superior to and victorious over the Master Race). Supposedly, it resonates deeply in the muslim psyche, or so i've read, don't know if it's true.

#12 I once read that the fact that young (arab) muslims stone jews (even if they're soldiers) has an HUGE symbolic value in muslim lands,

It's due to two factors. First, the Paleos are very fixated on what happened in the past. Second, they steal all their advanced technology from the Jews. Apparently they didn't see David's sling when he threw the rock at Goliath. Please don't correct this misapprehension.

#14  “If he had lived in a European country, the president would have kissed his feet,” Abu Qudama said, before being cut off.

#16 Zarki was a Bedouin from the Beni Hassan tribe. I'm sure he knew plenty of Paleos, but he wasn't one.

There is a post by an Iranian blogger in Canada that illustrates your point better than I could. In a word, yes- it's very true. And very muslim. I would quote it, but it's a little long.

Read it here.

#21 “Are you really sure he is dead?” she asks people gathered around her as a camera crew from Al Jazeera television prepares to interview her husband.

Well...(as the joke goes): He has no respiration, and no pulse and his brain is in a jar in the office of the coroner. But hell, for all I know he may be out some where practicing journalism.
