Mailbox Package Explodes in Philly

===> "The bomb, packaged in a styrofoam restaurant take-out box with no postage, no address, wires poking from it and a note that read "Free Palestine" and mentioned Al Qaeda ..." <===

There is no doubt that there is a war between Muslims and the West, Islam against Christianity, Judaism and Hinduism.

Civilized nations, such as America, England, Israel must stand strong together, because the Muslim threat is going to get a lot worse, before it gets better.

Unfortunately, there are too many Muslim sleepers in America, waiting to attack American families, for that is the way that they operate.

Terrorists are terrorists they are not Muslims, Musalmans or Jewish. They do not allow religion to separate them.

Jewish and Muslim terrorists stand united? You must point out where the article said this, I must have missed it. I also noticed that the Jewish terrorists are in an Israeli jail, as opposed to the Palestinian terrorists, who are daily hailed as martyrs and the heroes of Palestine.

French Prez Jacques Chirac hasn't been duped about the Karachi terrorist attack against French personnel:

* LE MONDE | 13.05.02 | 11h44
* MIS A JOUR LE 14.05.02 | 17h11


Ariel Sharon interpellé par Jacques Chirac et désavoué par le Likoud Samedi, le premier ministre israélien a été sommé par le président français de mettre un terme à la campagne désignant la France comme un pays antisémite. Dimanche, sous l'influence de l'aile dure, le comité central de son parti a voté une résolution contre la création d'un Etat palestinien.

lemonde.fr

The article's header alleges that Chirac phoned Sharon to protest against the unrelenting French-bashing and anti-Semitism slurs against France in the Israeli media... well, of course, I don't buy it. That kind of formal protesting is usually left to the ambassador and the diplomats or, if it really calls for a political pitch, to the Foreign Minister (currently Mr de Villepin). It's not up to the President to bring up such trivial matters in a phone conversation with another head of state. Hence methinks that Chirac's real concern was to tell Sharon that he doesn't want to attend other funerals of French nationals murdered by Mossad terrorists....

Thanks for posting that! A couple of very interesting snippets:

"several rabbis from small and hardline illegal Jewish settlements in the West Bank criticised the arrests."

"There was little sign of that at the weekend in Bat Ayin, a small Jewish settlement in the West Bank, and home of three of the detainees. According to the Israeli press, the settlement is particularly insular - banning entry to Palestinians and to non-Jews. There are no televisions, and male residents are required to grow beards."

What a bunch of freaks. The average American has no clue he is supporting this garbage.
