hung around the Jordan river and never needed to read a map.

Well everywhere you go you meet people who never move. In Clapham Juction (London UK), just as an example, lots of people have never been to that other Universe, London...north of the Thames. West End Theaters an all. Another passing note on moving around the globe, every factory I go to, I seem to see the same personalities...ubiquitous...

So what do you think of the Swiss research into an explanation of certain USA 80's statistics. What of certain MIT and Harvard PhD's cashing in on those troubled times.? -g- It works I guess, but I think I can be more imaginative in the "who to blame" game. -lol- I'm not into blame btw.-g-

edit: I never visited the Tower of London (lived in London for 7yrs or so) until I was a visiting "tourist" living in the USA

>>As we all know, Palestinians are unintelligent, lazy, uneducated and not at all fun.<<

Speak for yourself; I don't know any Palestinians. I do know a number of Israelis, so was speaking from my own experience.

Regardless of the personal characteristics of Palestinians, about which I have no knowledge, settling the Palestinians around Lake Tahoe wouldn't solve the Israel/Palestine problem nearly as neatly as letting the Israelis come here.

Their emotional and spiritual attachment to Jerusalem is something they'd have to work out.

>>Which is why it's okay for them to go to the USA now.<<

I wasn't alive during WWII, and even if I had been, I wouldn't have been in charge of US immigration, but I would have let them come here if I could have.

I dunno, Maurice, that post covered some good ground till it got to the PS, which sounded like a decidedly personal attack. While you've made your points on the national service debate, is it necessary to shoot the unconvinced?
