Z,

re:By keeping these people in refugee camps, and brainwashing them to believe that if they continue the struggle, they'll end up back in Israel, they won't give up their "right of return" and will also continue to terrorize Israelis. Also, those camps help to gain the world's sympathy. It's definitely worked. Most of the world is calling Sharon a war criminal, and many Israelis are afraid to leave their homes.


Let me reword it a little and you can see the social political agenda began by the great society of liberal Democrats.

By keeping the poor people in their current situation, and brainwashing them to believe that if they continue voting Democratic, they'll end up getting out of their terrible situation and that they and their children will continue to be rewarded. Also, this situation continues to gain everyone's sympathy. It's definitely worked. Most of the Democratic voting (95%?) media is calling the conservatives horrible people, and many successful people that were poor and did not listen to the brainwashing are afraid to speak out against this scam. The Democrats continue to get reelected, but the Democrats have done nothing to help the people that voted for them get out of their struggle.

The people in the Palestinian situation and the poor in America in their situation needs to stop and look around and see it's obvious that the crap their leaders are spewing will never happen. It hasn't happened in 40 years; it ain't gonna happen tomorrow. Both groups need to see that their leaders are only interested in political power, at the expense of their constituent's suffering.

There are plenty of Palestinians who live, work, and vote in Israel. There are plenty of people in America who got an education, pulled up their bootstraps, and worked their way into a piece of America. But you will not hear the media cover these situations very often if ever. It would be against the scam their leaders have been successfully running.

The majority of the poor in America continue to vote Democratic; what have they got to show for it? More welfare for their votes? That's all.

The majority of the Palestinians continue to support Arafat; what have they got to show for it? Media coverage?

Steve

I'm not sure why you don't get it. By keeping these people in refugee camps, and brainwashing them to believe that if they continue the struggle, they'll end up back in Israel, they won't give up their "right of return" and will also continue to terrorize Israelis. Also, those camps help to gain the world's sympathy. It's definitely worked. Most of the world is calling Sharon a war criminal, and many Israelis are afraid to leave their homes.

Z, first I don't believe that any Arab leader in his right mind believes that Israel is going away. However, I am fast coming to the conclusion that the Arabs have left the Palestinian issue hanging in order to make life as unpleasant as possible for Israel.

I further believe this tactic is about to back fire and explode in their faces in a way they never expected. Now, I am just worried about the consequences to the rest of us. I bet that very special UN [?] clock that gauges the political stability in the world is ticking very close to midnite.
