Here's an opportunity for the administration to show support for efforts to obtain peace in the Israel and the Palestinian areas but the US vetoes it because Israel is against it.

Its old news that the Mitchell report (the former US senator) recommended this but the US shot it down, and just did so again yesterday. A perfect example of how the administration says they support peace but really means it only supports Israel.

Rumors are today Arafat will call for an end to violence. If true then people can start bitching. Remember Arafat started the uprising and suicide bombers. Now Israel finally says enough is enough after too many suicide bombings to count and strikes back with all they have. I guess it takes more violence to make the Palesitinians understand that BOTH sides have to stop with the violence to make peace work.

I have no idea what that article is about but i do know that isreal is our ally. One does generally tend to support their allies, don't they?

isn't that the resolution written by tunisia and egypt? the one that would tie israels hands, and not even acknowledge that palestinians needed to kept under control, terrorosts/suicide bombers? talk about a dishonest move, under the shroud of good intentions these sleezy countries always push their little agenda. its a perfect reason why ihate those countries.

the US vetoed it but i think the response from the British, who abstained from voting, sums it up.



<< Britain said it abstained because the text did not reflect the realities on the ground, did not specify a next step for a resumption of meaningful negotiations nor define responsibility which both sides must accept to end violence. >>

At this point i really don't give a shlt anymore why they hate us. I do know that no matter what we say or do they will still find some lame reason to hate us and blow up things in an effort to kill Americans. As soon as we address a grievance they always come up with another. Arab negotiation tactics are a joke. They never negotiate in good faith. they only negotiate to stall for time never with any intention of coming to an agreement.

Now why is it the US govenrment supports the Isreali's by means of funds and weapons, yet for some strange reason unless research is required will never know. That is because the US gov supports (though thet say neutral) the Isreali's with both weapons and funds. That is because the US government either one, Gives money to news stations so therefor has to say what the US gov believes or two, the few US stations that give more accurate discriptions are considered low budget and not worth viewing...

The proof is in US history itself. Reasearch Alaska and Puerto Rico. The blood inviled in both of them speaks for itself... Unless you think Hitler was a mass murderrer whom murdered a lot off millions, whom Washington makes look like mother Theresa on the American Indians. It seems like a school day picnic. You all better research again unless you are influinced by US media or teaching because history is generally written by the victors.

Makes my a shame George the mass murderer is on a dollar bill in which every American gets.

By the way, what George or the Americans did to Alaskans or Puerto Ricans speaks nothing of what was done to the Indians. Why do you all think when the US speaks of justice and humanity the rest of the world laughs at us?

Come on, that was over a 120 years ago. You Icelandic Vikings were probably buggering Inuits against their will back 120 years ago and no one holds you accountable. There isn't a nation, especially and European nation that can stnad on it's Human Rights record going back 120 years ago.

heh... i cant believe non of you see the conspiracy yet... who cares what george dubya does.. he doesnt control his actions... he follows a higher power who got him to the presidency...some group called the patriots... the reason why the taleban is being attacked is because they tried to expose the patriots for what they really are...

heheh :) not realy true.. but funny :) (actually it could have happened over 800 years ago but I think the Inuits rebelled or something because during I think one year the viking settlers disapeared, no one knows what happened, no documents, no stories, nothing, just gone... abducted by aliens :eek:)
Anyway, I dont have a clue what the US did to Alaskans or Puerto Ricans, but the point I was pointing out is that when the US speaks of justice and humanity the rest of the world laughs, that is very true.

Well we really can't worry about what a bunch of insignificant little people think when we are trying to do good, even if it isn't always in out best interest. If we had a mindset like the Nazi's or the old Soviet Union they sure wouldn't be laughing now would they? They should consider themselves lucky that we at least think of ourselves as Champions for truth and justice instead of the Uber Race destined to rule the world.

Those insignificant little people are like the rest of the world and you must worry about the rest of the world. It is true that the US thinks of itself as a champion of truth and justice but the world doesnt care about that, it cares about actions the US has taken and they are not always actions taken by a champion of truth and justice. The US is very two sided when it comes to the world, it doesnt matter why some actions are taken, it matters what actions are taken.

If anything, this is a perfect example of why the ignorant should not discuss issues when they have no clue what's behind them.
