61. Primative and not too swift
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.06.10)
Burn baby burn.....oops...."Palestinian economy is largely based on Israeli manufacturers." And the only viable labor market Palestinians depend on is in Israel. They risk their lives to work for Israelis because Fayyad failed to create a job market. But Fayyad doesn't care. He'll let his reputation and Palestinian job opportunities go up in flames for the thrill of burning Israeli products.
62. #39 Poor Matty
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.06.10)
Posters are ignoring you. You better retake Baiting 101.
63. Jewish inventions
Robert ,   Brisbane, Australia   (01.06.10)
The greatest Jewish invention is the one that claims Palestine belongs to them.
64. #63 Don't be afraid to say Israel
Cynthia ,   USA   (01.06.10)
It exists and it's real. Perhaps one day the Palestinians will have the courage to communicate directly with Israel at the negotiating table instead of through terror.
65. To: No. 63
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.06.10)
Silly you. Don't you know the difference between invention and documented history? I guess not. But riddle me this: does Australia belong to the descendants of criminal deportees, or does it belong to aboriginals who have lived there since LONG before the first convict ships arrived? Inquiring minds WANT to know ....
66. To: No. 49 - Second Attempt
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (01.06.10)
It is you who are confused. The Jacobins were members of the revolutionary government in France, not terrorists seeking to unseat the government. Oh, plenty of terrorism existed, quite localized -- it is the Palestinians that are responsible for having brought global terrorism, by attacking targets well outside of their conflict issue. I don't think it is for you to decide how Jews perceive themselves. Most acknowledge an irrevocable link between Jews and Israel. Whether you like it or not. That said, here is a link which discusses Israeli advancements in science and technology that benefit all humankind: http://www.isracast.com/category.aspx?ID=2&t=Israeli-Technology Pretty impressive, even excluding non-Israeli Jews. The list of scientific, technological and medical advancements were I to Include non-Israeli Jews would be nothing short of mind-boggling. Keep in mind that there are only around 13 million Jews in the world. Our contributions go far beyond our rather paltry number. You need look no further than the list of Jewish Nobel Prize laureates: http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Judaism/nobels.html Trust you understand.
67. #52,54 you both speak on behalf of Palestinians or Arabs?
observer   (01.06.10)
68. what about senior PA members who sell cement to settlements
zionist forever   (01.06.10)
There are senior members of the PA who are in the cement business and they sell the stuff to the jews to build these settlements. Typical arab thinking, line your own pockets then go on a moral crusade which will put ordinary people out of their jobs If they want to boycott Israel make it a full boycott. A good start would be to stop asking for very expensive medical treatment in Israeli hospitals at taxpayer expense and putting Israeli citizens who pay for their medical care get put on a waiting list while beds & equipment are alocated for use by the philistines free of charge. They want a state how about printing their own worthless money instead of using the shekel. It cost Israel millions every year to print the extra money used by the philistines. Wouldn't they rather have Arafat and Sheik Yassin on their money rather than Zalman Shazar & Yitzhak Ben Zvi ? When there is something in it for them they love Israel when there isn't they want it destroyed and we are expected to trust them with a state.
69. no.1
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
They could be boxes of illegal alcohol or pornographic magazines or maybe Swat valley hashish from Afghanistan ,who knows it,s just a propaganda shoot to raise the profile of another inept corrupt Fatah leader?
70. no.3
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
It,s not food Sarah as they wouldn,t dare try that with tens of thousands of starving Gazans watching ,it,s just old boxes of alcohol or Western magazines that might corrupt the poor peasants ,nothing else.
71. no.16
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Relax folks its just a publicity tstunt to remind the peasants who,s in charge,the inept corrrupt PLO/Fatah intellegentsia .
72. no/6
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
All the contents of these boxes have been carted away to the Fatah bigwigs pantries/larders in Ramallah ,alcohol ,pork ,and other delicious treats ,so whos fooling who?
73. no.21
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Tayfun the Turk is missing the point so when will your leader Erdogan allow a Kurdish homeland in the north with Mosul and Kirkuk it,s major cities and all the nearby oil fields incorporated ,your comments are not welcome here,inshalah?
74. Tayfun
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Hopefully the Turk is already purchasing camel milk from the Gulf otherwise he,s another hypocrite?
75. 29
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
What do the Turks manufacure by the way as the only thing Turkish i,ve ever heard of is Turkish delight ,a delicacy of some sort ?
76. no. 31
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Another horrendous publicity stunt gone wrong fpr Palestine/Jordan as any potential donor would now think twice about sending goods there .
77. observer
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Observer is still mighty confused as a Jewish state means Israel ,there has always only been one Jewish state unlike the more than 50 Arab/MAuslim ones .
78. Matty Groves
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Matty seems confused by history or maybe it,s Arafat,s mremoirs that,s doing he trick.The League of Nations mandated in 1948 ,two states living side by side ,in peace and prosperity ,that was nearly 62 years ago ,the fact that Jordan,the Palestinian state is currently occupied by the Hashemites is an Arab problem ,not Israel,s or are the cowards of the Arab/Muslim world to scared to take on the mass murderers of the Palestine rabble who massacred 20-000 plus in 1970 by the late King Hussein of Jordan,if you can answer this then do so ,but with honesty and facts not Arab propaganda?
79. 41
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Well the scrolls cannot be used as toilet paper as it,s too brittle ,maybe for smoking that potent Swat valley opium that these pesasants so fancy.
80. no.43
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Has anybody checked the contents of the Fatah leadership ,s pantries lately in Ramallah as all that so called confiscated ,burnt booty is sitting on the shelves of those pantries,check it out?
81. no.44
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
This so called president is answerable to Amr Moussa and his Arab League ,who in turn have to get permissioin from the Saudis,before anyhing can take place .
82. Palestine
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
The Romans at the time of Judah and the Maccabees were the occupiers of Israel and the word Palestine is derived from Philistia ,the wife of the Roman Emperor at the time who was eager to erase all traces of Judaism ,thereby claiming the territory for Rome as was the custom then ,plain and simple facts not Arab lies and disortions.
83. no.55
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
So Minnie what was the name of this Greek as you don,t say mention it ,facts please not propaganda?
84. no/63
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Well it does and there,s absolutely nothing you can do about ,sorry mate.
85. no.67
samuel ,   RSA   (01.06.10)
Let,s throw the question back to the Palestinain ,who speaks on your behalf,Amr Moussa ,the Arab League,the Saudis,the Hashemites,Jordanians ,Bedouin,Hamas ,Shiites ,Sunis ,Uzbeks ,Tajiks ,Hussars ,Kurds,Nasrallah,Haniyeh,Meshaal ,George Galloway ,John Ging ,the UN UNRWA ,who exactly as we are confused?
86. to #55: Salk discovered Polio vaccine
Jania ,   Silver Spring, MD US   (01.06.10)
Minnie, you are mistaken. The Polio vaccine was first administered in Greece, but it was discovered by Jonas Salk. You can look up Polio vaccine, and you will not find a Greek name associated with the vaccine. Salk's vaccine is still used today, as is Sabin's alternative.
87. to Robert from Australia, #63
Jania ,   Silver Spring, MD US   (01.06.10)
Are you claiming that Israel doesn't belong to the Jews? Please answer this: To whom did Australia originally belong? I think you know. Give it back to them.
88. #77 tiny Israel
(01.06.10)
Jews live in 160 states, including South Africa, and sit in parliaments of 10 countries; there are or were Jewish premier ministers in France, Russia, Austria etc. In the Jewish state, there are no goy ministers, and goyim – whether Christian or Muslim have no full rights, even if they were born there.
89. #47 take roads with you and go back as you did in Sinai

90. To Sarah B at 68
