But do you believe Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Libya, Lebanon, AND ESPECIALLY JORDAN (the creation of which usurped land from the Palestinian partition), are "illegitimate".. If you state that Israel, which was bestowed upon the Jews as a reward for their support of defeating the Turks and suffering at the hands of the Nazis, does not deserve to exist, then how can you justify creating a Palestinian state given Palestinian and Arab collaboration with Adolf Hitler during WWII?? And you can soak yourself in all the propaganda Arafat tried to spew out (like his giving blood), and ignore the fact that his people were DANCING IN THE STREETS AND FIRING OFF THEIR AK-47'S IN GLEE AT THIS ATTACK all you want Len... It's not going to change the reality. And you guys talk about how the media spins the news in favor of Israel??? The PA literally threatened reporters not to cover the celebrations of the Palestinians over this massive criminal act of terrorism upon civilians. And if you doubt the accuracy of the US or Israeli press on this matter, recall the article that was posted out here by AN ITALIAN REPORTER in Lebanon, where she reported EDUCATED Arabs, Palestinians, and even Maronite Christians celebrating this attack.... Talk about some SICK people!! EVERYWHERE SHE TURNED SHE SAW THEM CELEBRATING... And we haven't done SQUAT against the Lebanese people. (my brother-in-law is Lebanese Maronite, and a recent US citizen, btw). Were you out secretly out there also dancing in the streets too?? I have little doubt that you likely put a smirk on your face, thinking to yourself, "it serves us right"... Hawkmoon
