Palestinians Show True Colors & Celebrate Attack

Let us never forget that there is a big difference what Arafat tells Americans via CNN, and what is expressed by the official Palestinian newspapers (which reveals how they are truly thinking).

This is a direct quote from Arafat's PA controlled newspaper on Sept. 11, 2001:

“The suicide bombers of today are the noble successors of their noble predecessors... the Lebanese suicide bombers, who taught the US Marines a tough lesson in [Lebanon]...and then, with no preconditions, they threw the last of the remaining enemy soldiers out of the [security] zone. These suicide bombers are the salt of the earth, the engines of history...They are the most honorable [people] among us...” [Al Hayat Al Jadida - Official
Palestinian Authority daily, Sept. 11, 2001]

Need I say more?

Abdullah Abdullah said that today on cnn, msnbc, and/or fox.he was perplexed as to why u.s. was working with these groups in pakistan.

btw pakistan set off atom bombs and u.s. imposed sanctions, some of which were just lifted. this could be more serious than forgiving some of $35 billion debt.

btw, i have no good answers as to what u.s. should do.

perhaps,now, only thirty countries, 20 corporations, 5 individuals, and four terrorist groups can kill millions of u.s. citizens. and perhaps only 2 want to. but, the numbers who will have the ability to kill tens of millions of u.s. citizens will grow exponentially this century. we should not provide them with a "rational" reason to do so or threaten to do so. we have always rewarded kidnappers and terrorists even to "save" one life. what will we do when a million lives are at stake. what can we do with the completely irrational who just want to kill u.s. citizens. perhaps the beatniks were 50 years to early.
