But I guess truth and integrity aren’t important, so we shouldn’t stir the pot. We should ignor the false pretext used for the Iraq invasion, because it might stir the pot. We should ignor the latest outbreak in Burma because some important folk might get offended.

Lady, I exist to stir the pot.

Ah. There’s where it reveals itself.

what reveals itself? Who equated the holocaust with the Iraq invasion? For someone criticizing another’s intelligence, it helps your case to not write vague and unintelligible assertions. Reading comprehension might also be a plus. In fact, i usually take poorly veiled ad hominem attacks as a sign of my arguments being solid.

As for the Armenian genocide – god forbid one should even suggest that it happened, let alone mention it alongside the Holocaust.

Get over yourself, will you? The Jewish Holocaust was an unspeakable horror among many, many unspeakable horrors. No doubt it stands alone in the lives and minds of Jews, as well it should, but stop insisting that it stand alone in the lives and minds of everyone else. Oh yes – and stop using it as an excuse for the commission of your own crimes and atrocities. Fewer and fewer people are buying it.

And by the way, does “never again” really mean “never again for us, and everyone else is on their own”?

(I am a Jew and I AGREE with Ahmadinejad – Palestinans should not pay for crime of Europeans)

Aristide was NOT a cruel dictator, he was a popular elected leader, while USA for AGES supported REAL cruel dictators in Haity and then help to topple democratic leader there (and all over the world)

On the other hand, PR did not mentioned that Ahamdinejad WAS elected.

And what PR knows about Stalin? that is, aside of rotten prop?

2. What territory in Israel have the Palestinians contested?

3. Are you suggesting that everything is the Palestinians’ fault for following `Arafat? Are you suggesting that the Israelis have been sincere in seeking an equitable peace, that their actions have been in that direction, and that they are in no way culpable, but only the Palestinians are?

4. “Why do they continually follow people who sell them out?” Tell me what their choices have been. Tell me what has happened to Palestinian leaders who had the potential to be truly effective. What do you know, for example, about the real history of the Oslo Accords? Do you have any idea how that process was manipulated to the detriment of the Palestinians by the Israelis and the Americans? Look what has happened to them as a result of electing people who would NOT sell them out. Look what has happened to them as a result of their electing people the Israelis and Americans do not like. Hint: It started with them being, as one light-hearted Israeli official put it “put on a diet” – i.e. starved by means of a blockade – and it has gotten continually worse since.

5. What “deal” are you referring to?

You are playing the game of “blame the victims”.

And yet, time after time, they were led into debacle after debacle by the likes of Arafat, who continually placed his own kleptomania ahead of the interests of the Palestinian people. Where are the hundreds of millions of dollars, Mrs. Arafat? Why do they continually follow people who sell them out?

And why use suicide bombs to further the debate?

I fault radicals like Netanyahu for their part in all this, but where would we be today if Arafat had taken the deal?
