A Token Showing (Rahman)

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Gore 2004 : One Thread

So Ashcroft gives us a token showing with Lynn Stewart & three others in the hopes that we are not presented as "jew baiters". You fool absolutely no one with this feeble attempt at appeasement.

It just goes to show that this administration doesn't really give a fig about what happens in the Middle East. All they care about is moving on with their New World Order. Your attempts are flimsy and transparent, and anyone who hasn't had a pre-frontal lobotomy can see exactly what you are up to.

Why Clinton tried at the End

This is why Bill Clinton tried to bring Arafat and Sharon together at the end of his term. We could all see this coming. This is the direct result of mongering "war" and telegraphing every move you make to the enemy. We want Al Gore. As soon as this administration leaves the White House & the "war" drums stop beating then maybe we can start to talk about peace again. You can be as mad as you want about WTC & 9/11 but two wrongs don't make a right no matter how you add it up. Piling more cordwood on the fire just makes even more flames.

Militants Bombing Away Palestine

Once again militants have struck in their effort to make Palestine extinct & defunct. It is impossible to negotiate a peaceful & political settlement for land & refugees for Palestine when militant suicide bombers continue to make devastation. I do not blame Sharon & Israel one bit for NOT wanting to negotiate with "terrorists".

Iran in a great effort of compliance has ordered Hezbollah Guerillas to refrain from attacking from Lebanon. Once again they offer a hand of friendship to the US. I suggest we DON'T slap it again like we did in January. It takes a lot for Iran to stretch itself in this fashion. If they were truly "evil" then they would be escalating attacks instead of stopping them. It has always been a nasty situation for them & they are making efforts to douse the flames.

Syria is not however, but they are just waiting to see if this administration will once again give Iran a cold slap in the face. That plus Syria wants her territory back & to them this is a golden opportunity to make a land grab. Israel says no because that land is elevated enough for attacks to be launched anywhere in Northern Israel.

Mr. Powell is on his way there now. It is a wonder that this administration didn't make him stop over in Cyprus or Greece first for a day or two. In my estimation this is a Powell judgement call and a good one at that.

Arafat is letting militants bomb away Palestine. One word from him may not make it go away, but it would at least give him absolution from the situation. He should speak NOW. If the militant groups fail to listen then it will be on their heads if there is no Palestine.

Of course the current "flip flops" from this administration didn't help matters either. You have to let both sides know without uncertainty and definitively what you desire to do. You can't just run to whichever side is popular in the media at the moment to look "good". This isn't a photo opportunity. People are getting killed.

EXACTLY!

You hit it right on the head, IT IS NOT A PHOTO-OP. It is EMBARRASING! That's why GW Bush has ducked into his BUNKER and is HIDING RIGHT NOW. MR. GORE WOULD BE OUT THERE MAKING EVERYTHING CLEAR TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE & THE WORLD! At least Powell is TRYING. He does much better without having strings pulled FROM THE WHITE HOUSE. By the way looks like those EVILDOERS in IRAN are trying to MAKE PEACE AGAIN! HOW CAN YOU ATTACK IRAQ WITH THAT GOING ON! Try putting out some signals that aren't as CLEAR AS MISSISSIPPI MUD!---Also very good and clean post Mr. T

And So Goes Palestine...

Any chance there would ever be a Palestinian state got literally bombed away today as Colin Powell watched from the air. So the militants in their zealous acts for recognition just set a course for their own destruction. Now we will let the IDF smash every city in the West bank from Ramallah to Jenin to Nablus. We can not and will not tolerate any more bombings of Israeli citizens. Palestine can lament all they want now because it falls on "deaf" ears. They have pretty much self-destructed just like their suicide bombers. they have proven Sharon was right. You can't negotiate with them. You have sown thorns Palestine, so now reap the consequences.

If Arafat won't condemn these acts and stop them then it is time for the IDF to roll over him. Smash him to bits. He will find the US will look the other way while it happens. It is regrettable. The state he wanted for so long will now be sytematically disassembled. Arafat & Palestine made their hot beds of violence. Now let them lay in them. I say the IDF should pull back from the Palestine cities so that American F-16's can give them a good pounding. Such is the way of violence. It leads to no good end. I say this with great sorrow as it will hurt both nations involved in the conflict.

It is now time to consider Iraq, and if Saudi Arabia wants to taste American wrath then they can fund it with telethon "blood" money. This could very well be the start of World War 3, and pity the Arab League. Only Iran, the nation that the present administration insulted has shown any common sense. They should be spared any of what is to come.

This is what comes of weak vague ambiguous American foriegn policy that goes and hides whenever things go badly. They waffled & flip-flopped so much they cost both Palestine & Israel "peace". It is a shame. Hide yourself because you made a mess of the whole process of "peace" with your "war" trumpets. Now we will all have to suffer the consequences for it.

Too Little? Too Late?

So Mr. Arafat met the condition and condemned the latest suicide bombing IN ARABIC. Hollow words will bring forth nothing. This isn't a school exam Yasser. You now have to stop the Palestinian "jihad" in Arabic also, and make efforts to get those explosive belts off of your young people. It doesn't help you, it doesn't help them, and it certainly doesn't help Israeli citizens.

This administration is "examining" the statement. That is about as comforting as a scream in the dark. If this situation would have been treated like the emergency it actually was then Mr. Powell would have had a chance of success. The Arab League & Israel expected Powell to come to the area at the beginning of the week, not go on a whirlwind tour of the region first.

If this administration would have been in direct control of the emergency teams of firemen & police that were called to the WTC on 9/11/2002 we could have saved their lives. That's because they would have been routed to the towers by way od Albany, and Syracuse to get a concensus of whether the fires should be put out first. But those brave souls ran straight into the face of danger without any regard of life & limb.

If this administration would have been on flight 93 then the plane would have hit the White House or the Capitol, because they would be too busy trying to get a concensus from the passengers on whether to go after the hijackers. But instead Jim Beamer said "Let's Roll" and those brave folks took the situation into their own hands.

This president claims we may be slow to anger, but when we do look out. The truth is this administration would rather pound in a tack with a five pound sledge hammer rather than use the propere tool, so they hem & haw, flip-flop, and waffle until the situation gets worse, then go and hide while they plan who will get bombed next.

Arafat gives a glimmer of hope,but he simply must do better. These bombers were going after Israel well before the IDF made this big incursion into the West Bank. Palestinians say they have always been there. Maybe so,but at least they weren't tearing your buildings down. Lay down your arms if you want Israel to leave.

Waffle to the left, Waffle to the right

Well now Israel is the "bad" guy again according to the Waffle House Administration. I said it wouldn't be long before they would flip-flop again. Arafat puts out a statement and this administration starts condemning Israel again, at least until another kid wrapped in explosives walks into Jerusalem. First Israel's acts are "good" then they are "bad". Is anyone keeping a scorecard here? I want to know how many times the Bush Administration has changed sides in a week.

Demanding a statement from Arafat alone won't change things. Sure he condemned the latest bombing, but I didn't hear a thing about stopping the "jihad". This was done to get Powell to come to Ramallah to score a public relations coupe. Well at least he is going provided there isn't another "jihad" bombing attack in 24 hours. Be on your guard Israel, Hamas and any other group that doesn't want this to happen will be sending a slew of bombers at you tonight.

As for this administration, quit picking sides all of the time. It is like a square dance. Waffle to the left, waffle to the right, Grab your partner and flip-flop all night. This isn't a Crawford Texas square dance. People are getting blown to smithreens.

ISRAEL STAY HOME TONIGHT!

IF THEY DON'T HAVE TARGETS THEN THEY CAN'T EXPLODE THE PEACE PROCESS. ISRAEL STAY INDOORS. MILITANTS WILL BE LOOKING FOR TARGETS. PROTECT YOURSELVES & PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN! THESE IDIOTS ARE ALWAYS SO GOOD AT KEEPING SECRETS, BUT WHEN IT COMES TO NOT TELLING ANYTHING THEY JUST BLURT IT OUT. POWELL'S VISIT TO ARAFAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A SURPRISE VISIT ON SUNDAY. ARE YOU TRYING TO GET PEOPLE KILLED?

Give ME credit now!

Let's give GW Bush credit for scaring the Israeli Cabinet to vote to approve an issue that he put on the back burner until he caved in to any kind of effort to make him look good. Why should Israel be strongarmed with it's arm thrust behind its back because they know that the Bush Administration would pillory them in the UN if they didn't allow Arafat to leave Ramallah? The idea that Palestinian prisoners in Ramallah held by Arafat as he should have been doing all along and did should now be watched by British jailers with US representatives has been floating for months. First Bush says no do it my way then he takes credit for finally doing it the way the world wanted it done and wants credit for it. In a world where ANY news of the sort is actually good news, we start pinning hopes on Arafat. He can now come out and do the right thing or he can come out press for the "jihad" again and start up some new bomb factories. It is all up to him. Israel should not have been forced into a corner just because they knew if they didn't do it then this administration would go against them in the UN over the Jenin Massacre where I might add 23 Isaeli soldiers died along with the 48 Palestinians we knew about. I didn't see Bush threatening to pillory Palestine over the Passover Massacre. This is just typical Bush playing one side against another then jumping on a plane without uttering a word.

I am forced to pay income tax every year whether I like it or not, so give me credit for trying to reduce the national debt. Same difference.

You have to admit...

with this administration that any news of progress is good news...I agree they do 99 things "wrong" then one thing "right" and they expect us to jump for joy over it...if anything maybe it will put the DOW back up to 10,000 points again...what it will do for employment or a robust recovery of our economy is questionable when you have Global Crossing joining Enron and others in the market SEC debacle...still I guess we should see whether the Bush Administration can actually follow through with the one "good" thing they did a little Texas "side step" to get moving..."now you see me, now don't, I've come and gone"...that's Bush...the Best Little Bore House in Crawford Texas.....

LET'S NOT GUSH OVER IT!

BUSH HAD AS MUCH TO DO WITH THIS AS I DID! Standing on the sidelines and finally sending out a trial balloon COMPLETELY OPPOSITE OF WHAT'S BEEN DONE ALL THIS TIME has NOTHING to do with any kind of plan that could have been instituted by anyone. If the rest of the world, the Arab League, and the UN would not have created the environment for this BUSH WOULD STILL BE WAFFLING AND NOTHING ACCOMPLISHED! This is the MOST PATHETIC SICKLY OLIVE BRANCH I HAVE EVER SEEN AND ANYONE GOING FOR IT BETTER BEWARE OF GETTING A KNIFE IN THEIR BACK! IF BUSH ADMINISTRATION "BLACKMAIL" ON ISRAEL WILL SET THE FOUNDATIONS FOR ANYTHING BUT FUTURE DECEIT THEN I WILL START PAINTING THE CEILING OF THE SISTINE CHAPEL ON THE HEAD OF A PIN! PALESTINE BETTER WATCH BECAUSE IF BUSH THINKS "BLACKMAIL" WILL WORK AGAINST ISRAEL THEN HE WOULDN'T BE ABOVE PULLING THE SAME THING ON PALESTINE. If you want to actually thank someone for getting this moving then thank all the PROTESTORS WHO CAME TO DC AND GRIDLOCKED THE TOWN BADLY ENOUGH TO CAUSE ENOUGH BAD SPIN TO GET PRESIDENT PHOTO-OP TO ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING!

Okay There It Is In Arabic!

Just like you wanted on 3.30.2002, Mr. Bush, Arafat has denounced the suicide bombings in Arabic. That doesn't necessarily mean that Hamas, Hezbollah, or Islamic Jihad will stop doing it, but at least it is a start. Now Yasser needs arms for the Palestinian Authority. You can talk the talk, but you can't walk the walk without a way to make people mind you. I will admit that maybe Israel has a point about giving Arafat guns & ammo, but you can not expect him to keep "order" on his side of the fence when all he has is maybe a sharp "stick" to poke out a militant's eye. I say give him the rifles, the helicopters, and the mortars for the PA, but with a warning. Yasser Arafat, these weapons are for you to "keep the peace". If the PA even dares to shoot any weapons at Israel at all then we will help Sharon "bomb" you into oblivion. I think Arafat can do the job if we get out of his way. He wants a Palestine so badly that he will do whatever it takes to make it a "reality" for his people. Meanwhile, I think Arafat should tell the militants in Gaza to "stand down", and put away their arms. If you leave Israel no choice then they will do to Gaza exactly what was done to the West Bank. I say send in the PA and Arafat, and make them disarm the militants plus shut down the "bomb" factories in Gaza as a test of "good" faith. Hamas militants are "less" likely to attack PA security than Israeli troops. If Arafat can't or won't do the job then we can always send in the IDF. Also it gives the USA justification to help the IDF with weapons & troops if Arafat should happen to "not" pull his weight.
