This is more likely to happen if Western Powers condone or participate in the destruction of moderate muslim societies (Lebanon, Afganistan, Palestine) while cozying up to fundamentalists and dictatorships (like Saudis, Pakistan, Taliban) and not h…

Eli - don't mind Spliff, he's a hairy post-op bulldyke who rides every month in Critical Mass rallies! unrelated, but why did you cut that JP Robinson track short on the impalaville? Mellow has been subsequently harshed by events.

This post is further evidence that you don't know what words mean. How you could possibly interpret my response to your trifling analogy earlier as an endorsement of a "final solution" for Palestinians? Re-read my post, then breathe, then re-rea…

So the pro-Israel contingent here seems to run the gamut from center-right "Palestinians should respect their rulers" (like Vitamin) all the way to the Final Solution. That's fucking disgusting. And either way, history has proven time and time agai…

I'm still trying to figure out what you are saying, BigSpliff. Cool. I was just trying to point out that even as innocent civilians were being killed and maimed by the IRA on the UK mainland, there were plenty of people in the UK, myself include…

For you to suggest that any people should sit back and accept missles and terrorist attacks as the status quo is absurd, sort of like that guy who said a rape victim should just lie back and enjoy it. a little extreme, but pretty much on point. Is…

Thing is, the vast, VAST majority of the youth out there want to go fight Israel. While the older generations want peace, the majority opinion across lines is, "Israel should just give the Palestinians everything they have been asking for, leave th…

Great Castellano/Gotti analogy..... If citizens of a country are breaking International Law isn't it that country's governements responsibility to stop them?? Yes, however I am just not sure and have not seen anything that has said that the Leban…

A couple general comments. 1) As far as rocket attacks go, from what I was reading, there were many who felt like Israel was getting missile attacks while it held the Occupied Territories and even Southern Lebanon, so withdrawing from many of those…

Here''s my take from Cairo. Israel for the last year has withdrawn from Gaza, been extremely restrained against rocket attacks from Hezbollah and Gaza. Israel''s top national security concern is that one of those rockets will marry up with chemical …

A point that has not been made on this aid discussion, is that the outlines of that assistance that Israel receives is a condition of the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel that America brokered. And in answer to the silly question from Frank abo…

Israel has been doing a great job spinning this as, "Oh, we're just sitting here minding our own business and these terrorists came and took our men. So we had to drop huge bombs all of Lebanon." Kudos. And for all this talk about Iran and Syria: …

Was reading this in the NYT today: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/13/world/middleeast/13assess.html Curious if Vitamin or other folks would agree with some of the underlying arguments here, esp. the idea that Iran has played a key role in destabliz…

that said - best intro that could have gone wrong but didn't: the intro to "Stakes Is High." too bad about the rest of the album though. Hatter. you honestly don't see the dramatic shift in tone between that intro and rest of the albums mostly bo…

you white muthafuckas trying to rewrite hip hop's origin already? couldn't just be a bunch or brothas who started it, huh? im convinced that po' black folk invented everything in the world and whites just got the credit for it. Don't front dude. Wh…

There were numerous reasons why Hamas came to power. One of those is that the Palestinian swindled billions in international aid to purchase hundreds of thousands of people to join Arafat???s mafia. Another reason why Hamas won the election is becau…

I shouldn't say anything but.... Currently Israel is attacking Palestine... Viciously. Palestine is trying to work out a diplomatic exchange with Israel. Israel does not recognize the Palestine government. Israel refuses to negotiate with Palest…

Here are some random thoughts on north korea. I went with Albright's delegation, so I got a chance to see how lavishly the rulers live. I saw make work projects where emaciated people were shouted at from VW minibusses to work harder in korean. I at…

The missle is an empty threat. it has to be political posturing. DO you really think he would openly nuke the u.s.? Its not even about that. The U.S. needs to step its non proliferation treaty game up. As it stands, you gotta have nukes to be a re…

The idea is if they lash out enough, the international community might give them sorely needed food and natural resource aid as concession when talks are held about their weapons program. It's not gonna happen. The world does give them lots of food…

Rootless, I was not trying to make this a right/left thing. I was posing an Iraq related question to the group, after conceding the basic point of the US embassy memo. I don't agree about the "right" betraying the people we are supposed to be help…

Do you know what words mean? I blame the Shiite theocratic parties for the campaign of kidnapping and intimidation. Listen, take a deep breath and please attempt write a coherent sentence responding to anything I wrote. It's not that hard. I know y…

Duuuuuuuude!!! The Left is to blame for all this???? There's been no Left for over a decade. From where you are standing calling anyone naive has got to be joke of the century. You are obviously on your own path to absolute truth. But really, plaes…

There is a difference between diplomats and military officers talking to the insurgency in order to divide it and get groups outside the government participating inside the government, and what Dreyfuss is proposing. He is saying that America's aim…

First off all, the asessment of the embassy memo is ofcourse true. This is not much different than my own observations of the perils of working with the Americans that Iraqis told me about in 2004 when I was in Baghdad and Tikrit. Your view that th…
