One thing is for sure, you can find with regularity arguements from my tiny group of people surrounded by the worst monsters on earth, arguements from all political viewpoints, in all of their press.

Now, if you were able to show some even a small amount of non rascist thought process when it comes to Jews, you would spend a similar amount of time, coming the entire arab press for similar stories showing an 'anti-Jew hating' group from within the Arab world. Alas after spending many hours you will come up empty.

You see us as evil for not wanting to give in those who only want to kill us, I say it would be foolish for us to act in any other way.

That article was written in Israel and published in an Israeli publication.

But Nabil Abu Rdainah, a senior adviser to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat (news - web sites), denied any Palestinian Authority link to the weapons ship.

``We know nothing about this ship which the Israelis are talking about and we are going to investigate to see what's going on though we consider it Israeli propaganda in order to sabotage the mission of General Zinni,'' he told Reuters.

Gus, Rumsfield admits: nothing he can do about your opinion (s)

cnn.com

Rumsfeld, speaking at Thursday's Pentagon media briefing, said there was "nothing much" the United States could do about what others might claim about the leaflets.

"The whole premise of bin Laden's activities in the world are premised on lies and the fact that people will say things, like you just said they might say, is true," he said.

In 1971, according to the Mitrokhin archives, KGB chief Yuri Andropov personally approved the fabrication of pamphlets full of racist insults purporting to come from the extremist Jewish Defense League (JDL) and calling for a campaign against "black mongrels" who, it was claimed, were looting Jewish shops. At the same time forged letters were sent to 60 black organizations giving fictitious details of atrocities committed by JDL against blacks. They called for revenge against JDL leader Meir Kahane. He was assassinated some years later, not by a black extremist, but by an Arab.

Throughout the Cold War, KGB disinformation was under orders to stir up racial tensions in the United States. Before the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, KGB operatives in the Washington residency mailed forgeries from the Ku Klux Klan to the Olympic Committees of African and Asian nations.

These are among hundreds of examples of KGB operations that wound up in various media as fact. When Washington denounced them as forgeries, Moscow indignantly responded "anti-Soviet slanders." Both sides were dutifully reported.

.

The disinformation themes these journalists were fed by the KGB always contained a kernel of truth that became the lead to a story followed by a tissue of falsehoods. Apologists for the Soviet Union in the U.S. would then quote them when interviewed for their reactions to major events abroad. The falsehoods quickly became conventional wisdom. So far, ten years after the implosion of the Soviet empire, no one has come forward to say they were victims of KGB disinformation operations.

One of the scenarios, where great many West Bank Palestinians may find themselves in Syria and Jordan

"If warfare of this kind had reached the hands of terrorists acting against us, it may have dramatically altered the security of the citizens of the state of Israel and the soldiers of the [Israeli Defense Forces] and drastically increased the terror activity against us," he said.

Palestinian militants now have rockets capable of reaching Jewish settlements inside the West Bank or just at the border. But launching the longer-range Katyushas "inside the heartland of Israel would dramatically change the dynamic, and draw Israel into a massive response," said Hirsh Goodman of the Jaffee Center for Strategic Studies.
