To m5r5n5,

Other than you talking complete nonsense and besides that everything you said is 100% FALSE, It is worthwhile mentioning that Israel might be "hiding behind their weapons" (which makes perfect sense in a war) - but HAMAS is hiding behind men, women and children, schools, hospitals, mosques and the UN, and most of all - THEY DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHATSOEVER if all of the Palestinians are dead. Deny it all you want, but you and them are human feces.

Mr sparrowking99, I hate to break this to you, but to say that most palestinians want peace with Israel is like to say that most of the pigs have lipstick (I just remembered what Obama said...) - Anyway, the Palestinians throughout history have proven over and over again, that for them "peace" = Israel ceases to exist. These people are not even fond of America anyway (because of the mere axiom that Israel = little satan and America = big satan) - so bottom line: WHAT ARE THEY ALL DOING HERE???

@uscitizen2 Its oky for Zionist Jewish Non Mideastern (Israelis) to invade and kill the Natives (aka Palestinians) but it's not k for the Palestinians to have their own independent state. For how long are Americans going to send billions of their taxpayers' money to those invaders? The greatest threat to America r the Zionist Jews (who are more loyal to Israel than America). They control the biggest lobbyist group in the states (AIPAC), they control the media, banks, & Hollywood.

@Intifada1981 where do I find the right Arabs? Because like I said, they're not in Dearborn.

I do have a Chaldean friend, is that close?

[tonylee1973]

@Intifada1981 But why would Palestinian refugees come to the US? as oppossed to Australia, New Zealand, Canada? those are wealthy places and do not have the type of involvment that the US has in the middle east "conflict"? Have you been back to the middle east?

[Intifada1981]

@gyneman You were around the wrong Arabs. I personally have never discriminated like that, if I invite a non-Arab to join me and my friends, there is a damn good reason why and he or she does NOT get treated like a fifth wheel. Maybe because I've been shit on my whole life by whites I treat the few whites that do respect Arabs like gold, because they are hard as hell to come by. I duno about Mexicans, every time I get around large groups they seem to wana rape me...but Arabs..I just can't see it

[gyneman]

@gyneman to further back my point with the 'caucasian' (which I mispelled) comment. I've been to Kid Rock concerts in Detroit. In which you cannot get more caucasian than that, and Winter Blast in downtown Detroit (same.... caucasian) and never had one problem. Some of the shit that happens in Dearborn and Milford, I'm glad that I don't hang there anymore!

[gyneman]

@gyneman There's more, but for now I'll leave it at that. Swish that around and come back with something like "you're just racist". But today, with all that goes on, in some small way, everyone is. I just admit it. The one's who say they aren't, are just kidding themselves.

[gyneman]

@Intifada1981 I can tell you why. Because I lived in Dearborn for quite some time and also went to Camp Dearborn in Milford from '78 to '02. When you're one on one you're great ppl to be around. But when there is a large cropping of you, you become disrespectful little smears on society. Same as the Mexicans. I work with some great latino guys. But thats one on one. Get a group of them together, smears. Yet when I am around large groups of 'caucasions', things go swimmingly.

@pakiyahoodiify

Yep....you are officially on Dearborn's Shit List. Wanna get beat up by a girl? Come to Dearborn!! Hahahaha!

[Intifada1981]

@gyneman

Why hate us? Is it because our taxes that we worked hard for go to pay your welfare checks?
