1. Solution. Cutoff funding to Israel immediately.

Time for peace NOT war.

2. the supreme court in Israel is powerless against the idf

the idf does`t want "creditable" witnesses to their collective punishment.

3. What did you expect?

4. Wow. Well, George Bush just flat out lied in that radio address....

Hamas took over in a coup? Are you sure?

I could have sworn they were democratically elected thanks to our insistence on those very democratic elections.

Our foreign policy is a nightmare of a joke.

5. Look who's talking!

I can't believe the irony of this idiot! He took over the US in a coup via the Supreme Court. It just makes me want to throw my shoes at him!

6. Very Interesting

This video was a study in contrast and effective PR. First you see George W. predictably mumbling through his teleprompter lines. Then you see a Hamas leader ranting in Arabic (I assume) about dark destinies and God's wrath (I gather from the English translation). Finally, comes the very smooth, preppy looking, Israeli Ministry of Defense PR flack, speaking far better English than the President of the United States. Which pitch do you suppose was most effectively delivered to a target audience of maybe a billion English speakers. :shrug:
