I take it you haven't read the alleged connections between Saudis oil, Khasshogi and the Bush family? If you are going to be finding conspirators under every rock, you are limiting yourself with your hatred of Jews. Perhaps you can answer according to your interpretation of the Light you quote. Do Muslims go to heaven or hell? We know how you feel about Jews. But what about non-Christian-believers like atheists or Muslims

I think rrufff has a question for you. The advantage of an imposed fair solution is so everyone else can keep their armies homes and not worry about wars and explosions in a critical area of the world. The militant Zionists and the fundamentalist Muslims would reject it and try to continue the struggle. It would be the responsibility of their gov'ts to control- -or take the consequences of not doing so. And a fair proportion (not all by any means) of American Jews would reject it. That's why you need a President with cojones. Bush might do it. Slick Willie? Not a chance. Arabs have little are not control over our media and virtually no power over Congress. So we really are defending ourselves against an Israeli agenda rather than an Arab agenda. That is changing. Arab-American influence on politics is growing. Saudi Arabia once had an open ear in the White House but this was lost after 9/11. If the Arabs are such good guys, why didn't THEY push for a fair solution THEN? What you keep wanting to ignore is that this isn't JUST a Jewish problem and ALL the bad guys aren't Jews. This is like claiming the Northern Ireland problem was entirely the fault of the Catholics or the Protestants. And that problem is rather analogous: the Protestants were invaders of a land that had belonged to the Catholics. AND these two problems together make one Hell of an argument for Solon's thesis that religion is the root cause of a high percentage of wars. Stick THAT in your peace-loving Christian pipe and smoke it.
