American ZioNuts=Warmongers

As usual blow-hard you miss the point; Sharon may or may not have said it so that proof exists...this is not a Jury Trial but one of public opinion...The point is that AIPAC has made his true or fictional point a reality...If Americans don't wake up to the influence in the control of their lives by the moneyed class in America who use their collective money clout to steer public opinion in the wrong direction like it did in Iraq...Now steering towards Iran, and god knows where to next.

You Sniffer are not an American First but a ZioNut who prostitutes itself for a foreign power's welfare!


I understand you and your pathetically smarmy ilk perfectly, PBrain. You believe deep in your soul that Joooos are evil and any camel crap regardless of its source which supports your hate is good enough for you.
You, on the other hand, miss my point entirely. That is that in order to justify your mindless hate you must subscribe to and regurgitate any and all lies about Joooos because the truth just doesn't do the job.
You, PBrain, are a mindless hater who prostitutes herself in service of her hate.

Why dont Jews spell it "joooos" cause they seem awfully fond of spelling it that way...honest question :eusa_shifty:

Yeah, sure it's an honest question.
Jews don't spell it "Joooos."
I spell it "Joooos" when addressing a simple-minded Joooo hater. That you attribute this to and generalize about Joooos says a lot about you.
 
The warmongering fakestinians must leave Israel that they invaded and return to egypt and saudi arabia where the smelly little bastards came from.

Palesteenian Hamas Minister of the Interior Fathi Hammad, Al-Hekma TV [Egypt]: "Half of the Palestiniains are Egyptians and the other half are Saudis"
Brothers, there are 1.8 million of us in Gaza. Allah be praised, we all have Arab roots and every Palestinian in Gaza and throughout Palestine can prove his Arab roots--whether from Saudi Arabia, from Yemen, or anywhere.

Personally, half my family is Egyptian. We are all like that.

More than 30 families in the Gaza Strip are called Al-Masri [Egyptian]

Brothers, half of the Palestiniains are Egyptians and the other half are Saudis

Who are the Palestinians? we have many families called Al-Masri, whose roots are Egyptian. Egyptian! They may be from Alexandria, from Cairo, from Dumietta, from the North, from aswan, from Upper Egypt. We are Egyptians. we are Arabs. We are Muslims
Hamas Minister of the Interior and of National Security Fathi Hammad Slams Egypt over Fuel Shortage in Gaza Strip, and Says: "Half of the Palestinians Are Egyptians and the Other Half Are Saudis"

Winston Churchill, Secretary of "Palestine" During British Mandate to House of Commons, Parliamentary Debates, 23 May 1939
So far from being persecuted, the Arabs have crowded into the country and multiplied till their population has increased more than even all world Jewry could lift up the Jewish population.

I like punching
Sniffer in the
Nose....

Even when
I miss, I always
Come close!


*You are still like a petulant 9 year old girl, PBrain. You will never escape your cardboard box.


By far the greatest haters on this board who use the mass psychosis of anti-semitism to cloak their unjustified actions in the Middle East...Sniffer you're the hater of swarmy people, the very people who originally gave you birth...
Its your hate that Fuels this conflict!

"Swarmy people?" Care to try to explain, PBrain?

I din't want to spell it out for you Sniff, I knew your simple brain would be caught by that word because you are the Sniffer...How about swarthy? It is you who hates humanity stuck in a loop that the world hates Joooos...

Poor Sap.
 
Judaism, the religion of peace. Islime, the religion of warmongering.

The slaughter of innocent Israelis is not resistance -- it's injustice.

Let's be honest: Israel is surrounded by neighbors that have waged repeated wars against it. Israel's citizens have been killed by rockets fired at their houses and suicide bombs on their buses. Israel's children come of age knowing that throughout the region, other children are taught to hate them. Israel, a small country of less than eight million people, looks out at a world where leaders of much larger nations threaten to wipe it off of the map.These facts cannot be denied.
Remarks by President Obama in Address to the United Nations General Assembly | The White House

John F. Kennedy, "Salute To Israel"
Both Israel and the United States acknowledge the supremacy of the moral law – both believe in personal as well as national liberty – and, perhaps most important, both will fight to the end to maintain that liberty

I join in this salute of Israel today because of my own deep admiration for Israel and her people – an admiration based not on hearsay, not on assumption, but on my own personal experience. For I went to Palestine in 1939; and I saw there an unhappy land...For century after century, Romans, Turks, Christians, Moslems, Pagans, British – all had conquered the Holy Land – but none could make it prosper. In the words of Israel Zangwill: “The land without a people waited for the people without a land.” The realm where once milk and honey flowed, and civilization flourished, was in 1939 a barren realm – barren of hope and cheer and progress as well as crops and industries – a gloomy picture for a young man paying his first visit from the United States.

But 12 years later, in 1951, I traveled again to the land by the River Jordan – this time as a Member of the Congress of the United States – and this time to see first-hand the new State of Israel. The transformation which had taken place could not have been more complete. For between the time of my visit in 1939 and my visit in 1951, a nation had been reborn – a desert had been reclaimed – and a national integrity had been redeemed, after 2,000 years of seemingly endless waiting. Zion had at least been restored – and she had promptly opened her arms to the homeless and the weary and the persecuted. It was the “Ingathering of the Exiles” – they had heard the call of their homeland; and they had come, brands plucked from the burning – they had come from concentration camps and ghettoes, from distant exile and dangerous sanctuary, from broken homes in Poland and lonely huts in Yemen, like the ancient strangers in a strange land they had come. And Israel received them all, fed them, housed them, cared for them, bound up their wounds, and enlisted them in the struggle to build a new nation.

Yes; Israel, we salute you. We honor your progress and your determination and your spirit. But in the midst of our rejoicing we do not forget your peril. We know that no other nation in this world lives out its days in an atmosphere of such constant tension and fear. We know that no other nation in this world is surrounded on every side by such violent hate and prejudice

Today we celebrate her 8th birthday – but I say without hesitation that she will live to see an 80th birthday – and an eight hundredth. For peace is all Israel asks, no more – a peace that will “beat swords into plowshares and spears into pruning-hooks”; a peace that will enable the desert to “rejoice and blossom as the rose,” “when the wicked cease from troubling and the weary be at rest.” Then, and only then, will the world have witnessed the complete fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy “Tzee-Yon B’Meeshpat Teepadeh” – “Zion shall be redeemed through justice.” And all of us here, and there, and everywhere will then be able to say to each other with faith and with confidence, in our coming and in our going: “Shalom” – peace! Peace be with you, now and forever.

US christians need armageddon in the middle east so that jesus can come back and save them. No Israel=no armageddon=no jesus.

Its hard to believe Jews accept the favor of these Southern Redneck KKK Christians who were killing Liberal Jews in the sixties Civil Rights movements...

I studied the Koran a great deal. I came away from that study with the conviction there have been few religions in the world as deadly to men as that of Muhammad. So far as I can see, it is the principal cause of the decadence so visible today in the Muslim world and, though less absurd than the polytheism of old, its social and political tendencies are in my opinion to be feared, and I therefore regard it as a form of decadence rather than a form of progress in relation to paganism itself.
 
America has two things going for it: The Dollar and The Military Industrial Complex but we're about to lose the dollar thanks to QE (money printing).

So when the US can't support wars overseas you know what we'll do? Bring it all home and usher in The Police State.

(Some people would say it's already here) :eusa_shhh:

All I hear on these boards how Islam is a violent Religion, therefore Let's war on them. There is no tolerance by the ZioNuts...As far as other Religions: Certainly Christianity has been the most murderous...I only pointed out Judaism and Islam because they are the subject of these boards and in theory they are very close to each other.
Phillip, you must be sleeping if you don't realize how little tolerance is shown to other religions by the Muslims. Maybe you do know, but really don't care about the way they harass and murder those of other religions (even those Muslims of different sects) and blow up churches and mosques with people inside praying. In addition, young Christian and Hindu girls are being kidnapped and forced to convert to Islam. There are people from all these groups living here in the U.S. Why not find some Hindus, Christian Copts, Assyrians, Bahai's, Chaldeans, Buddhists, etc. and find out how much tolerance the Muslims are showing to their brethren? How about reading the following three pages to this article and see what an honest Muslim has to say. After Hindus, Pakistani Christians forced into conversion - Rediff.com News

I know the ME is stuck in the Middle Ages. Its a rough neighborhood. Sometimes I think some Nazi dreamt up Zionism to to put the Jews in harms way as they are today.

Israel needs to sign a comprehensive peace and share Jerusalem...anything less will just keep feeding the fire.
Phillip, the article I asked you to read was written by a Muslim in Pakistan, and Pakistan happens to be in Southeast Asia, not the Middle East. You can't just slough it off that the Middle East is a tough place, when the Muslims are busy murdering not only in Muslim-majority countries in different parts of the world but also in Buddhist Thailand and the Catholic Philippines. Could you possibly tell us what is fueling the Muslims' fire in these other places where no Jews are involved? Do you honestly think they want peace even among themselves when they are also busy murdering each other of different sects? Have you any idea of the large number of homicide and suicide bombings that the Sunnis have committed against the Shiites just in Pakistan?

Most if not all the countries you mention, strfe is because of most of those borders were Western Fiats...Hindus were terrorizing Buddists in Shri Lanka, Serbians were murdering Catholics, and Muslims...Chinese have been killing Buddists, Africa is a basket case of violence... on and on Hoss...

It aint just Muslims, its the whole world...

Phillip, you really make a first-class Dhimwit. Right now there are Muslims murdering people in many different locations in this world today (they are even murdering each other), and you have to jump right away to start bringing up other groups. All I can say, Phillip, I hope that you, whom they consider an Infidel, don't go wandering around in any Muslim country. They would pull a Nick Berg on you without thinking twice. Regardless of Phillip's deflection, there are honest Muslims in Pakistan who are quite aware of what is happening. If Phillip would take the time to read on-line news sources such as Dawn.com, he would see Muslims' Letters to the Editors complaining about what other Muslims are doing to innocent people of different religions.

It IS primarily the muslims, driven by their diseased death cult known as islam.

At EVERY point on the globe, every one, where the muslim world touches the non-muslim - there is conflict or war. Whether it is the muslim filth in mindanao in the southern philippines trying to ethnically cleanse all non-muslims, to gaza where the muslim filth is ethnically cleansing christians, to nigeria where the muslim filth is doing the same - the muslim scourge can be seen in all its glory.

The muslim, via its cancerous death cult, is a warlike barbarian that can only be put down like a dog.

Look Hoss, You have Never seen a post where I choose Arabs over Israelis. I know that Western thought is something Italians like myself know about...In fact that's where the present day Jews learned it from, Rome...

Read the Torah...the ancient Jews the Romans found in the ME were just as murderous and uncivilized as their neighbors...Jericho ring a bell, Hoss?

The internet I hope wakes up people and see that Democracy brings freedom and material benefits, which then enfranchises the masses who would seek peace.

As an American I post because I'm tired of seeing American Soldiers fighting everywhere because of our ME involvements...Its time for America to listen to Libertarian pundits and politicians like Ron Paul and Isolate ourselfs from the loonies in the ME.
