The Palestinian Problem

For some reason, I'm not in a mood to rant today. Instead, I'll use my post to make fun of the Palestinians.


1. "Sometimes we call it a massacre when you kill one innocent person."--Fakhri Turkman, Palestinian Legislative Council. Remember when the Palestinians wildly accused Israel of massacring hundreds of Palestinians left and right in a pogrom? Apparently, everything is a massacre. Except when Jews are killed in Israel. That's "national liberation." Does anyone notice, by the way, that he says "sometimes?" Could that suggest -- gasp -- duplicity in the Palestinian position? God, I can't imagine. Here are some real massacres:


April 27: Adora, Palestinian gunmen enter residential quarters shooting everyone, including a 5-year-old girl shot through the head in her bed.


April 12: Jerusalem, suicide bombing at a bus stop, 6 murdered.

April 10: Yagor, suicide bombing on a bus, 8 murdered.

March 31: Haifa, suicide bombing in a restaurant, 15 murdered.

March 28: Eilon Moreh, shooting attack, 4 murdered.

March 27: Netanya, suicide bombing at a Passover seder, 28 murdered.



2. According to this article in Ha'aretz, a Palestinian funeral went awry when the stretcher carrying the 'corpse' tipped - and the body got up and ran away. Apparently, the man was only 'partially deceased'. Now, we must ask: "When does a group lose its credibility? The fake massacre, the suicide bombings, or the non-funerals?" The actual video is here -- he actually gets back on.


3. This is more sickening than humorous. French Cardinal Roger Etchegaray, a representative of the Roman Catholic Church which probably has more Jewish blood on its hands than well, anyone, has taken the liberty of raising his hand in victory with Yasser Arafat. The Church of blood libel extends its hand once again to slap the Jews.


4. Now, some outrage for measure. The Angry Clam has some flyers the Students for Justice in Palestine are posting around the University of California campus in Berkeley -- with such things written on them as "Kill Jews" and pictures of hooded Jewish Klansmen lynching a Palestinian. But they're not anti-Semitic -- they're only anti-Zionist.


5. Finally, some comedic relief after those two bad examples. From the Onion, God has apparently decided to destroy the entire Middle East with a huge flood. Divine retribution rocks!
