3. How BIZARRE!! After giving Sharon a blank check (as the BBC phrases it)
and NOT telling his strongest ally in the region, King Abdullah of Jordan......they're worried about stability??

No, they want instability......if it gets really bad, they'll nuke 'em.
If this is a religious war in their minds, then isn't that the scenario most likely to occur???

And here were are, in a rerun of the 2002 election cycle...Democratic leaders having learned NO lessons.....

7. OH yeah, they're worried alright...
except that they are worried that even this atrocity will not spur the Palestinians and those who are sympathetic to them to openly attack Israel or the US in Iraq. Damn that stability! If they don't rebel, then people like Sharon and * will not have the opening they need to colonize the entire middle east.

8. Guess he didn't really MEAN to start world war III
by abdicating the US responsibilty to be some sort of nominally "honest broker" for peace between Israel and the Palestinians.

Guess he didn't MEAN to give Israel the impression that the US would support whatever they decided to do.

I don't think I've ever hated them so much as I have this week. Can it get worse?

predicament.

11. He ain't concerned!


I bet he is sitting there with Pickles and Condi and clicking the glasses of Beer!

He knows he is happy about the mess in the middle east. He started the mess and he keeps putting OUR feet in it!
