A storm erupted in the Knesset plenum yesterday,
following Transport Minister Avigdor Lieberman's
reported proposal to provide buses to take the
Palestinian prisoners that Israel releases to a
place "whence they will not return."

According to another report,
Lieberman said the prisoners
should be drowned in the Dead
Sea and he would provide the
buses to take them there.

MKs Jamal Zahalka (Balad) and
Talab A-Sana and Abdelmalek
Dahamsha (United Arab List)
blasted Lieberman.


"How can you suggest transferring thousands of
Palestinian prisoners to the Dead Sea and
drowning them there?" Dahamsha asked in a
debate on traffic accidents. Lieberman retorted
that MK Dahamsha visited an Arab murdered in
Afula by Palestinian terrorists.

The Arab Knesst members were furious. MK Talab
A-Sana said "that's the ultimate fascist
statement, shame on you."

Lieberman told MK Zahalka "Let me tell you
openly. As far as I'm concerned you're much
worse than Arafat and Abu Mazen. If it was up
to me you'd be sitting in jail, at best."

Opposition leader Mk Shimon Peres denounced
Lieberman's utterance, saying it inflames the
hatred between the two nations. "You should not
have said what you said, this is not a Soviet
regime nor a Communist one. You will not lock
anyone up and you will not threaten anyone."

:disgust:

Oops, wrong Lieberman.

I understand how people can be pissed. There is going to be a lot of venting on both sides, but it beats shooting.

Sorry, but I got a little chuckle out of that. I guess he could find the buses.



Both sides have taken hideous damage. People in America have all these "remember 9/11" stickers and such. Well, it was like losing the national virginity to a rapist. Innocence gone. In reality the damage to America was minimal. A few thousand and a couple of buildings. No one here is in serious danger, but over there everyone is always. Further, if either side took to stickering their cars for each attack, less and less of the original paint would be showing. People are going to get mighitly angry. If all they are doing is shouting, then I can live with it.

Why buses? Trains are way more effcient, as the germans found out long ago...

 

[thraxes]

Yup.. i still believe the Israelis are going into some freudian ancestral revenge thingie and will consult the publications, historical documents and most importantly ancestral first hand experiences on the methods of a certain austrian how to best deal with the palestinian problem :/ In fact Mr Liebermann demonstrated that I am not far from the truth, a fact that has me genuinly worried.

national virginity? WTF is that? seems like you forgot Pearl Harbor. Like 9/11, that too was a surprise attack.

I'm afraid of those tall muscular women on ESPN. Being a chick wouldn't be too bad tho . . . 😉

What you fear most you are afraid to know. The becoming is not a conscious thing.

I know about Pearl Harbor. It was a pre-emptive attack based on the fear of one country over another. It was morally equivalent to what we did in Iraq, but we didnt suprise anyone.
Now, I don't know what planet you come from but here on Earth, a generation is about 20 years. WWII (Which I did not live through) was a time I know about, but did not experience. What I know is found in books. To everyone born after, it is history like the Civil War. You did not get to live through either. American were generally living in a world where terrorism happened to someone else, at least foreign attacks. OK was a sad abberation on the part of a few. 9/11 changed that. That is when people lost their innocence. When they knew living carried risks, and being attacked was one of them. They became frightened, and that is why Bush could lauch America's Pearl Harbor. Before then, the idea of attacking a country which posed no significant threat would have been looked at as fundamentally against American values. Well, values are in the dumper now. Neocons are the rage and the danger. Yes, national virginity. You lost it, and arent posessed of the ability to see it. How could you who have lived through so little?

Anyone remember who that guy in the Knesset was who said that they should kill 10 Palestinians for every Israeli killed? He's up to 3 Pals for every Israeli. I cannot understand how a people who have been so wronged throughout history could become so much like the people who almost exterminated them. The occupied territories are like one big concentration camp. Of course not all Israelis are like that, and those who fight for an end to the occupation perpetrated by their country should be lauded. Their voices might not be loud but their goal is noble in the face of such trying opposition. We can thank the the Ultranationalists/Ultraorthodox in Israel, the NeoCons in the States and the terrorist groups in Palestine for ensuring that many more people will die for many more years to come.
