Why is Israel getting away with these atrocities?
1: The pro-Israel lobby is very strong. Politicians who ignore them usually finish up looking for another job.
2: Bush is captive to a group of fundamentalist loons, and some of those believe that we need a nuclear war in the middle east to help God out in initiating the second coming.
​
Israel is getting away with state terrorism against innocent Palestinian civilians.
Israel can do no wrong, at least in the eyes of some fundamentalists.

Except, of course, that the party that is control of the Palastian government right now is HAMAS.
In this country, we do not take it that the misdeeds of the Republican party are misdeeds of the federal government. Why are we treating Palestine differently from the way we want to be treated?

The NATIONS are Islamic fundamentalist nations committed to the destruction of Israel, the free West and ultimately the planet.
If you really believe that, you should be writing your congressman and demanding that congress declare war on these nations.

Re: The Energizer Bunny Topic...
Is anyone else a little tired of this crap?
Why would we tire of it?
​
This is where the fundy contingent demonstrate that their faith is not in God. Rather, they are beholden to modern right wing cultic leaders who are feeding them this crap.

Re: The Energizer Bunny Topic...
What specifically are you alluding to which indicates to you that fundamentalists don't have faith in God?
They regurgitate propaganda that is handed down to them by their leaders, without even bothering to check the facts. They say things that are very unchristian. See Message 38 for some examples of the latter.

Re: War with????
How you all lie about us!
I didn't see any lie.

quote:
as a question for those a little more in touch with reality than the "all arabs must die" fundies, do you feel this is right? or wrong? or justified?
I did not take arachnophilia to be talking about all fundies. I took him to be talking only about those fundies who believe that all arabs must die.

We try to point out that it is Islam that is the source of worldwide terrorism ...
Except it isn't.

triple negative
If you don't think that the US or the UK isn't tragically concerned about what's going on, then you have no concept of reality.
I suspect that means the opposite of what you intended.
​
Can you try to avoid these confusing multiple negatives?
