tejek,
re:Think Boston Tea Party!

A rather sick comparison to tell the truth, tea vs killing folks.


Not at all.....there were riots over the Dome of Rock incident as there were riots in Boston over "taxation without representation". The comparison is valid.

As with the violence that followed the Dome of Rock riots, so too did violence follow the Boston tea party, including the scalping of Brit. soldiers by white settlers. People will do what it takes to be free. It seems we are too far removed from the Boston T. P. to remember what its like to want to be free and to want to have your own country. However, some would suggest that Palestinians are the American colonists of the 21st century.

The Israeli's won again on the body count, but the Palestinians keep trying.

Now that is sick!
