RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — Palestinian officials say they plan to begin mass marches against Israel’s occupation of the West Bank on Sept. 20, the eve of a laregly symbolic U.N. vote expected to recognize their independence.
Palestinian official Yasser Abed Rabbo says leaders hope to draw millions of people into the streets, and say the day will be the beginning of prolonged demonstrations.
He says the marches will be peaceful. But Israeli leaders fear any unrest could easily spin out of control.
With peace talks stalled, the Palestinians have decided to ask the U.N. to endorse their independence. The vote will likely be largely symbolic, but the Palestinians believe any international endorsement will isolate Israel.
Palestinian leaders approved the protest plan at a meeting in the West Bank on Monday.

Posted on August 1, 2011 at 1:20pmThe Palestinians failed miserably with their so-called massive flotilla. It seems the rest of the world is not so willing to lay down their lives for a bunch of losers. Who else would consider their children as expendable collateral damage and urge them to cross the borders? No one is buying their terror tactics.

Posted on August 1, 2011 at 1:13pmIsrael should refuse US “aid” so it can free herself from any tele-prompter leader our dependable seniors and affirmative action recipients elect. Let Israel be a sovereign nation without asking approval from the big brother for each building she builds or each move she takes.

I have written to every congressman senators and even this president

We were daughters, wives of vets.
I remember seeing movies as a child with people lined up and shot in

young and again last year.
Am well aware of what is happening and have been for a very long time

Maybe it is because i am from texas but i do not take to threats from this president (i cannot say his name and call him ruler) about social security.

Posted on August 1, 2011 at 12:32pmThere are no Palestinians. Never has been a ‘Palestinian people’. There is no ‘West Bank’. There is Judea and Samaria. There is no occupation. Israel fought a war of self defense and gained territory as a result. Perfectly legal. There are those who dispute it, but that’s about it.

Posted on August 1, 2011 at 12:56pmYeah!!! And now if you can just find an actual hebrew, you’ll be in business!!
Report Post »Note: khazar gypsies don’t qualify. Converts aren’t hebrews, and so story books don’t apply to gypsies. True fact: there has never been a hebrew prime minister of “israel” ever, and the arabs that have lived in what is called palestine for centuries-(long before the balfour declaration, the backshooting irgun gypsies, or the nakba), are most easily described as “palestinians”. What else ya gonna call ‘em?-the arabs in palestine? But hey, at least they are actual semites, eh? Ouch! Next!

Posted on August 1, 2011 at 3:41pmSo, precisely when do Blacks cease to be African? The majority of the Palestinians claiming Israel as theirs are no more than Arabs from other countries who emigrated for jobs in Israel. There have always been Jews in the area called Palestine even before there were Arabs.

Posted on August 2, 2011 at 8:37amLike your statement however I believe that the palestinians people speak of did live along the Gaza strip only they were called Philastines. So there is record of them being there but, think they were nomadic and have harrassed the jews for about 5K years. I don’t see where they have a claim, other than inhabiting the the area for a few hundred years while the jews were enslaved in Egypt.

Posted on August 3, 2011 at 11:02pmAbsolute anti-Semitic nonsense, OFFTHEMENU.US. Not to get into a “My G-d is better than your god” argument, but I will just say that the scripture given by the G-d of Avraham, Isaac, and Jacob say that the floor will be mopped up with you. He is just waiting for us to get a backbone and stand up for Him, His Torah, and the Holy Land of ISRAEL that He gave to US.
Since the Roman expulsion, there has always been a Jewish presence in Israel. This is a fact that you deny, but the Truth always wins in the end. We are returning to our ancient homeland, one way or another, of our own volition or by the Hand of Almighty G-d.
Have you ever heard of DNA tests? Take your Khazar rubbish someplace else. It’s so 20th century!

“Nothing about Ramadan requires holy warriors to stand down from operations in Iraq or Afghanistan. Quite the contrary, it is a time for Muslims to demonstrate devotion in ways that are totally unlike the Lenten season in Christian observance,”
The same applies to the Palies — this is an orchestrated hate march, choreographed to force Israel to retaliate. You can be assured the Friday prayers to “Allah” were that they will martyr a few protestors, especially children, to discredit the only democracy in the Middle East.

All of the land modern Israel currently possesses, plus all of the land of the Palestinians plus some of Egypt and Syria, plus all of Jordan, plus some of Saudi Arabia and Iraq.
And yet she ALSO believes in the ignorant “1967 borders” statement by Obama?

Posted on August 1, 2011 at 8:02pmRose is a very complex individual. She has posted several times that she is Catholic and yet demeans the Christian people as though they were to blame for her 67 border war. Can’t figure her out. She embraces hanging children and bombings of innocent people by the Arab/Muslims and then gets upset over her Palestinian Muslims who want nothing less than to kill all the Jews in the world. I don‘t know who her priest was but I’m sure that he did not teach her this.

Posted on August 1, 2011 at 1:29pmThey most likely will put all their young boys, and men at the front of the march, as they know as G Khan knew,( as he conquered the Euro’s) they were weak when it came to killing the young. And because of that and “he had the advantage” cause the children mean nothing, they can be replaced like hogs in a pig pin…Note in Mexico, drug cartel uses boys, 8-14 to threaten and kill as they are ordered, knowing adults will not fight back, also, Somali, if there are any people left after the rulers made famine, put army weapons into the arms of boys, roaming the streets, using what force they can and will on the populace.
The Islamic leaders where their clean robes with their fat stomach sticking out and demand that the young kids, and men go to their death for the Imam‘s stated hatred and cause according to the Quran’s demands.
