michael,
how can you question the purity of hamas? ...what bona fides so
apodictical as martyrdom? why do you suppose the bush straussians are so
eager to legitimate the PA, and sharon to periodically juice its popularity
with hinting that arafat is a target for his apache death squad, ...where
have you guys been this last 100 yrs?...corrupt client regimes are the
perpetual darlings
anyway you/we (brit, us, israel) are guilty of a shamefull crime. and
regardless the moral stature of the victim, until we do justice, we've no
moral authority to judge and declaim so grandely, ...nor even abstain,
...and love? ... for such unmitigated fuckers?
otherwise i agree with you, ...at least where our 99 percentile is
concerned
bob
