    At least we're not aiding the Islamists in Mali.
    What kind of message are we sending out if we support one group over the other when both sides commit their fair share of atrocities; condemning one ignoring the other? Screw both of them and screw the fundamentalist Christians of the US for blindly supporting Israel because of some prophecy in the bible that supports the Zionist movement.

    She ran in front of a tank/bulldozer, was hit, and then died.

    We won't ever know, because there wasn't a fair and credible assessment. We can give our opinions about it, sure. But our opinions are also limited to what we know.

    What we do know for a fact is that the civil suit was not given a fair chance to make an assessment. My understanding is that the Israeli Supreme Court will consider an appeal, but I do not know enough to understand whether the Supreme Court will re-consider the case, or whether it will review the appropriateness of the proceedings.

    That flies in the face of the 4 experts which were allowed to testify.

    Interesting that the UNHCR would publish such an anti-Israel propaganda piece. It lacks any kind of neutrality. In contrast to this, their last publication on Mali is from almost 2 months ago and does not mention Islamism with ONE WORD, being very "neutral". http://www.ohchr.org/EN/NewsEvents/Pages/DisplayNews.aspx?NewsID=12337&LangID=E

    However, they have this under current "Top News":

    Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination examines report of Liechtenstein
    27 August 2012

    Nice to see that they focus on the urgent and important issues.

    I know people who work in international organizations like this and they are often infiltrated by propagandists - looks like an anti-Israel propagandist wrote that piece Mathloom quoted.

    As an Assyrian, can we claim our rights to that land? Can we resurrect the Assyrian Empire, Mesopotamia and Babylon?

    Where is all the media attention for the plight of the Assyrian people in the middle east? You remember, your allies in both world wars?

    Assyrian churches are being burned and church attendees are being executed for being Christian...

    Hello?

    Anyone?


    I thought so.

    Perfectly good reasoning on why a people should be oppressed, have its land stolen, receive less rights in the society based only on their ethnicity, and all of the other good injustices they are subjected to by Israel.

    Your point regarding Assyria I have dealt with in another post (you Islamist alarmist posters tend to have this nasty habit of posting basically the same thing in multiple threads in a short time frame).

    As for the quiz, I do believe one of the questions was regarding Palestine's currency?

    My first time posting about Assyria. Would you like to humour me and answer my questions posed in regards to the persecution of Assyrians and Assyrian lands?

    And posting a picture of a Palestinian pound didn't answer the question...

    Look Transnistrian currency from The country of Transnistria !

    Wow, British Money in a British controlled Land...It was only created to distance the British trading with the Ottoman enemy, but hey. Even if I'll give you that one you're 1/11

    The interesting thing is that the other Arabs couldn't give a **** about the Palestinians. Most of them look down on them. But they use them so that they can demonize Israel. It's not about helping Palestinians - it's about demonizing Jews.

    Between the circle jerk of ATW, Casey, and Izik Extremists, and the neo-con trio of Basso, Bigtexx, and Trader Jerk - this board has reached it's lowest point ever.

    The six of these guys have turned this cesspool into a cess-tsunami

    Hello NewYorker. I would say the lowest point was when you took a fictitious position of a neo-con for...how long? Several years?

    Nobody ever needs to take you seriously again. Ever.

    Women lie, men lie...

    People all over the world (Muslim or not) can't stand Israel for what they have done for decades. You're on the wrong side of the fence. Gotta take off the blinders for a sec to see it.
