The Israelis have stolen Palestinian land. The response is predictable. The solution is UN Resolution 242, abandon all settlements on Palestinian land. The Israelis refuse. By what right do they claim this stolen land?

The Islamaterrorists who tortured and killed hundreds of children deserve all that can be dealt to them. This should make you feel better. Nearly one half of Chechnya's 1.1 million people have been killed or displaced by the Russian-Chechen conflicts in 1994 to 1996 and from 1999 to the present. Chechen leaders claim the independence of their republic. Russia maintains Chechnya is part of the Russian Federation. Fighting continues, rights abuses escalate, and the humanitarian situation closely mirrors ones that captured international attention in Bosnia and Kosovo. refintl.org ------------------------------------ ... WFP estimated that some 35,000 Chechen civilians faced starvation in Grozny and the surrounding areas. "These civilian victims of the conflict in Chechnya are clearly in a very dangerous situation, particularly the people in Grozny," WFP emergency coordinator for the northern Caucasus, Bhim Udas, said. refugees.org If something like that had happened in New York City, the comparative size would have been over 80,000 dead (more than 25 times the 9/11 massacre). I'll let you figure out what the compartive size would be. jttmab
