A noble experiment..

   A few years ago most of the Western Powers  France, UK, Germany, US etc. all urged Israel to trade "land for peace".
  These Western Powers said that Israel should let the Palestinians take complete control of the West Bank and Gaza.
  Since at that time Gaza had all the buildings, highways, schools and infrastructure...they could become a respectable, prosperous entity.
 
   Experienced voices such as Benjamin Netanyahu and Ariel Sharon were warning that such a trade off would be a waste of time.
   Even if the "Palestinians" were handed a complete, operating economy it would soon descend into chaos.

    The Western Powers made it increasingly difficult for Israel...so finally, bending to the "wisdom of the west"..Israel regretfully ceded control of both the West Bank and the Gaza strip and moved out..lock, stock & barrel !

    In the Gaza strip..no new highways,no new schools, no new commerce...and the original institutions were allowed to decay.

   Now, with recent events in the Gaza strip, we see the wisdom of "land for peace" !

    (It has been announced by Hamas: schools will be revitalized however, with hate filled curriculum from the Iranian mullahs)

   No better example of Muslim intransigence and hatefulness need be found...   

  Oslo accord..a stupid exercize in futility !

That pretty well says it all. POWDERMAN.

Actually, it's working out pretty well; the sumbitches are killing each other now.  That saves the Israelis the trouble for a little while.

IRONGLOW. Next I guess yer gonna tell me that the Godless ones broke their word, uhhhhhhh, oh yeah, they did. Probly had a good excuse though. Uhhhhh, nope,  I forgot, their cult teaches them that, even encourages them to lie to infidels, thats us ya know. Can anyone, ANYONE, give me ANY example of an agreement, or treaty, that the Godless ones ever made with Israel, or us, that they kept their word??? I can't think of any. Appeasement has never worked, treaties neither. We haven't had a decisive victory since WW11. Until we start playing hardball with these Godless scum, the world will have no peace. I know these are the end times and how it all ends, but I don't believe that God wants us to just lay down for these Godless scum. The longer it goes on, the more souls they will convert for satan himself. POWDERMAN.

  Powderman;

  What word..According to their belief system, there is no such thing as deception, a lie or falsehood or doublecross when dealing with we "infidels" ..any degraded action is acceptable..and perhaps even "holy"...

  The only diplomacy they really understand.... comes from a .50 cal Browning..

  They even decieve each other..the Fatah wing apparently thought things were OK a few days ago !

  Even a rattlesnake warns before he strikes !  ...but not these "Islamic heroes"..
