		<description>here we go again! the great fallacy of &quot;the jewish race&quot; rears its ugly head. they SO want to be their own race that like republicans, they never let the facts get in their way. to be a RACE you have to be born that way and you can never change it. i am an irish guy and can never convert to japanese. no way, no how. but after a few classes and a couple of thousand bucks, i can convert to judaism. (sounds like a shady online university, doesn&#039;t it?) 

whenever you contradict them in person or online, the jews just call you a racist. like that means anything. i always ask them if they are a Sammy Davis Jr kind of jew? or a David Lee Roth kind of jew? just so i can be properly prejudiced. i would hate to be prejudiced against the wrong kind of jew. hate it when that happens.</description>

		<description>Northern Ireland, Egypt/Israel, et al...all negotiated and successes under DEMOCRATIC Presidents, Clinton and Carter. Obama knows he has a legacy to fulfill. 

Bush&#039;s Road Map to Peace? Don&#039;t make me--and the rest of the world--laugh. He did nothing except talk, and I must say, Bush was the first President to publicly call for a two-state solution, something that was considered the Third Rail of the U.S. Jewish Constituency.</description>

Max Anax junius -1 Says:
When people stop blaming the &quot;Jews&quot; and start blaming the government of Israel, they will begin to make sense....
... Otherwise, xtian Americans are responsible for the illegal invasion of a sovereign country that posed no imminent threat to America. And was it these same xtian Americans that keep attempting to justify war crimes?

REALLY?
The &quot;Jews&quot;?

Amen, Max. It&#039;s like blaming ME for the Iraq Invasion. I&#039;m no more to blame than Al Gore is. 

To paraphrase The Who, the Jews are alright. It&#039;s their neocons and religiously insane that are the problem. Israel must live, and it can only live decently if it creates peace, something that just isn&#039;t in Netanyahu&#039;s list of talents. 

But in Obama, we just MIGHT have another Jimmy Carter, with enough political capital to twist a few arms here and there. Especially when the Zionist neocons are making such incredible fools of themselves with stories like these.</description>

Very good point. However, it&#039;s been my experience in the interwebs that when someone blames the Israel government, their defenders actually revert to defending their Jewish status.

Poster: I think the Israeli government is wrong in this issue.
Defender: OMG why do u heit Jews your a nazi burn in hell OMGWTFBBQ!!!11!one!1!

And Joshua forbid if you are a Jew and you say something critical of the Israeli government, because then you&#039;re a &quot;self-hating Jew&quot;. &lt;a href=&quot;http://thinkprogress.org/2009/07/09/netanyahu-axelrod-emanuel/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Case in point.&lt;/a&gt;</description>

Right.  My point was that the posts I was responding to talked about Fayyad making Israelis wait at checkpoints and basically live the life of those suffering in the West Bank and Gaza.  He&#039;s not saying that.   That was my only issue.  I was certainly not meaning to imply that Israeli Arabs currently live a great life.</description>

		<description>politication ~ here&#039;s some wikipedia for you
Arab citizens of Israel (also termed Arab Israelis, Israeli Arabs or Palestinian Israelis) [2] is a term that refers to the segment of non-Jewish Israeli citizens of Arab cultural and/or linguistic heritage.[3][4] As of 2008, Arab citizens of Israel comprise just over 20% of the country&#039;s total population. The majority of these identify themselves as Palestinian by nationality and Israeli by citizenship.[5] Many have family ties to Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, as well as to Palestinian refugees in Jordan, Syria and Lebanon. Israeli Bedouin Arabs tend to identify more as Israelis than other Arab citizens of Israel.[6] The Druze are drafted into the Israel Defense Forces.[7][8]

As of December 2007, survey data shows that a majority (62%) of Arab citizens of Israel would prefer to remain Israeli citizens rather than become citizens of a future Palestinian state.[9][10]. However, more recent surveys show that various factors — including the Second Lebanon War, stalemate in negotiations with Palestinians, failure to implement recommendations of the Or Commission, and closure of the case against Israel Border Police troops who shot dead Israeli Arab protesters in October 2000 — have caused a radicalization in the positions of Israeli Arabs towards the State of Israel, with only 41% of Israeli Arabs willing to recognize the country&#039;s right to exist as a &quot;Jewish and democratic&quot; state (compared to 65.6% in 2003), and only 53.7% believe Israel has a right to exist just as an independent country (compared to 81.1% in 2003).[11].</description>

		<description>#55 &amp; #75, Israeli Arabs are not the same as Palestinians.  Israeli Arabs are Arabs that live within Israel proper, not Arabs who live in the occupied territories.  Israeli Arabs are citizens of Israel, they own businesses and have jobs,  but they enjoy limited political rights (being barred from forming outright Arab political parties is an example).  However, Israeli Arabs do participate in Israeli politics, they simply do it through Jewish or other types of parties.  

So my point is, the Israeli Arabs to which Mr. Fayyad refers are not those Arabs stuck at checkpoints in Palestine.  He is saying that the Israelis who settle in the new state of Palestine will enjoy rights like the Israeli Arabs enjoy rights.</description>

		<description>&#039;That&#039;s because the Muslims have all the oil and libs are in the pocket of Exxon Mobil Corporation.&#039;

So the Bush administration, which illegally invaded, occupied and destroyed Iraq, a country that didn&#039;t attack the US, nor did it have the means to do so, all because they just happen to have the world&#039;s second largest supply of oil, was a LIBERAL administration?

Thanks for clearing that up.</description>

		<description>&#039;And why could one not also hold that the imposing of draconian measures on the Palestinians (which also makes it impossible to have stable employment), driving them off the land, and then building settlements on this land is not also ethnic cleansing?&#039;

Because ANYTHING Israel does is justified.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Mr. Cobb Says:
&lt;em&gt;The tactic is the same: Sell land you don&#039;t own for cheap to settlers (or give it away), send the locals to live in reservations&lt;/em&gt;

And call yourselves &quot;settlers&quot; like you&#039;re settling the Wild West.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

As I understand it, the British did the same thing in Northern Ireland. Enticed settlers from Scotland (mostly Protestants) to repatriate across the Irish Sea as a means of gaining control over the people which they couldn&#039;t win militarily.

That worked out well, didn&#039;t it?</description>

<p>As I understand it, the British did the same thing in Northern Ireland. Enticed settlers from Scotland (mostly Protestants) to repatriate across the Irish Sea as a means of gaining control over the people which they couldn&#8217;t win militarily.</p>
<p>That worked out well, didn&#8217;t it?<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=5718203', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;As Bloomfield notes, Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad said recently that Jews who choose to live in the new state of Palestine “will not enjoy any less rights than Israeli Arabs enjoy now in the state of Israel.” 
&lt;/em&gt;

Cool. They&#039;ll be forced to wait hours at checkpoints, have their food supply blockaded, etc.
Turnabout should be fair play.</description>

The tactic is the same: Sell land you don&#039;t own for cheap to settlers (or give it away), send the locals to live in reservations 

And call yourselves &quot;settlers&quot; like you&#039;re settling the Wild West.

Or call yourselves &quot;liberators&quot; , and illegally invade and occupy a sovereign nation for their oil.....</description>

		<description>A few points to the fellow TP readers.

- Jeffy Bovine has admitted to be using the Repiggies Blow Goats moniker.

- The USA DID and continues to make a mistake supporting the fictitious nation of Israel. USA DID not destroy it. If anyone has to make reparations would be Italy, the Romans. 2000 years ago.

- Now, pay attention Zionists and buyble thumpers. 
Why would your dog send you morons into exile for hundreds of years so you could come back and claim the woolly land for yourselves?

Furthermore the Zionists morons are grabbing land belonging to others as if the great Jessie performance were to sell a limited number of seats. Only those living on the woolly land are accepted.

Instead of rejecting the f-up performer, the Zionists want to grab more land to wait for the end of the world. It will give them tickets to salvation.

Oh, almost forgot. xtians out number jews, while jews reject Jessie.</description>
