You wrote:<font color=blue>"In order to gain more land, the Zionists needed to instigate and harrass the Arabs to rise up against them ... "<font color=black> This is either a blatant lie, on your part, or you are really stupid and naive. Personally I think that your mental illness twists your reasoning so that you actually believe this crap. You are trying to convince someone that the Jews wanted to start a war against Arabs for land in 1948? Many Jews were recent survivors of the Holocaust, and in total were very badly armed, and were outnumbered by huge numbers of heavily armed Arabs. How about 1956, or 1967 or 1973? You still believe that tiny Israel wanted to wage war against the huge Arab armies? For instance: "On October 6, 1973 — Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar — Egypt and Syria opened a coordinated surprise attack against Israel. The equivalent of the total forces of NATO in Europe were mobilized on Israel's borders.1 On the Golan Heights, approximately 180 Israeli tanks faced an onslaught of 1,400 Syrian tanks. Along the Suez Canal, fewer than 500 Israeli defenders were attacked by 80,000 Egyptians." us-israel.org Do you feel that Jews are super warriors who can always defeat forces that are much bigger and much better armed? Do you consider Jews to be some kind of super human? Or........ is your accusation against Jews just another blatant lie? You are a very sleazy, sick and blatant liar.

Did you notice that your buddy Arafat is putting on trial 4 palestinians for the murder of the Americans back in October in Gaza?. Trial date is the end of Feb. The key was that the US threatened to cut programs unless the PLO cooperated in the investigation. Arafat finally buckled when the US threatened to cut back on aid. That's all he really cares about, more money for those Swiss bank accounts per CBS 60 Minutes. I believe you, although it may have been one of the other haters, posted that you felt it must have been done by Israelis trying to pin it on palestinian terrorists because Arabs don't have remote controls or some other goofy argument. In any event, PLO gave in and admitted it was their own guys, and they're going on trial.
