Funny how the liberal media establishment just couldnt make it here huh......no shocka

Perhaps that's because the liberal media understands that news sites hosted by Israeli Settlers are not fair and balanced? Yes, this is one of the mouth pieces for the Israeli Settlers (even the name smacks of apartheid, no?). I'm sure you knew that, right?

I betting this enlightened media outlets that you frequent don't do exposes on the living conditions of the 1.3 million refugees living in Gaza. You really need to visit a refugee camp where 100K people are crammed into a square kilometer. Then you will understand what it means to live in poverty.

But I'll play ball Islandboy. See, it's similar to the US. The rich are the last to suffer and may actually grow richer during times of crisis.

[Islandborn]

Silence.

Will CBS and NBC and CNN and MSNBC and AbC cover this story?? No, because it doesn't fit their agenda.:pimp:

More and More people are seeing what these Mainstream media outlets have become.

we have discussed that, Ive been to Israel.....seen the camps....seen the living conditions. Its a rough place. Both sides are gonna have to find a middle ground somewhere...will that happen in our lifetimes.....no.

[Islandborn]

Seriously, what would Bigsby's solution to the situation be? I got work to do tonight but will read tomorrow.

[bigsby]

we have discussed that, Ive been to Israel.....seen the camps....seen the living conditions.

Yes, we discussed it. You visited Amari which is amounts to a leafy suburb of Ramallah in comparison to most other camps. Amari is 7,000+ people with access to jobs and services. Now take that same camp and add 93,000 people. Remember, the camp size stays the same. Now, take away the jobs and services offered by Ramallah. And even if you had seen other camps in the West Bank or Gaza, I would point you to southern Lebanon where they are even worse. You ain't seen nothing.

What middle ground? They took 78% of Palestine for Israel, and they have carved up the West Bank as well. Where is the middle ground? I'll tell you where the middle ground is - it's in a bi-national state where one person gets one vote. That is where this is headed. Israel and supporters like you have choked off any opportunity for a two state solution. What is left for the Palestinians? I give it 2 years before they dump the peace process (seeing as Natenyahu did the same a decade ago) and push for national rights within the Israeli state. When that happens, we will see the true face of Israel.

[Islandborn]

Awsome......I can't....wait to see....what you describe as Israels true face?:thumbsup:

2 years you say?

[bigsby]

That's... all... you... have... to... say...?

I've already told you what the true face of Israel will look like. You would see it if you knew what you were looking at. Israel is on the verge of becoming an apartheid state. Dual education systems, Jewish only roads, Jewish only housing, widespread discriminatory practices in the labor market by private and public employers, the wholesale occupation of 3 million people, and on and on.

Seeing as I outlined why there is no middle ground left, and given that you think there is some middle ground to be had, why don't you outline where and how they will find this mythical middle ground.

[Islandborn]

Israel has a right to exist and isnt going anywhere. Perhaps the leaders of Palestine should stop indoctrinating their peoples with dumpsky propaganda. Do I need to show some of the PLO and Hamas Cartoons that run in the schools in Palestine? Its scary SOMEONE paid you do cover middle eastern issues. But no Shocka thats for damn sure.:thumbsup:

Here's one of my faves
YouTube - Muslim Palestinians teach children to hate in cartoons 1 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aV9M3mmqOII)

and another from Hamas and their personal tv network
YouTube - Hamas Television Broadcasts Anti-Semitic Propaganda Film Rem (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Eu6_P8rNpk)

Muslims have their own schools in Minneapolis? Jews have their own schools in California? Is that apartheid? No.

Im over the Palestinan Israel dabacle.......bigger targets state side.

[Islandborn]

Oh......and thanks for traveling to Narnia and seeing the future of nations you dont even live in......truly an amazing talent. Journo.

Lets see.......I think the Jews and Muslims will still be fighting in 300 years......but with sharks with lazers on their heads.

[bigsby]

Muslims have their own schools in Minneapolis? Jews have their own schools in California? Is that apartheid? No.

Another gem from Glenn Beck's intern.

There is a difference genius. US based religious schools do not receive state funding. But OK. I'll give you that one just for fun. What about the Jewish only housing, Jewish only roads, and the widespread discrimination practiced in the employment sector? Actually, never mind. You are not able to parse even basic concepts of justice. You cite extremist literature and try to pass it off as fair and balanced. You are not worthy of my time.

here's some new video from the "beseiged" Gaza strip

Ohhhhhhh, the humanity.

[bigsby]

Note that this mall serves 1.5 million people. It is the first of its kind. You don't know diddly about that place. You ought go for a visit. They are actually very nice people despite having been ethically cleansed from their homeland.
