And certainly, looking at this Sanwar creature, how can anyone argue with the evolution theory?
2. Yahya Sanwar
BUILD BABY BUILD !!   (04.27.17)
poor soul looks like he's half Arab and half Camel.
Abbas still looks like a rectum with spectacles.
So much for looks.... Zero brains between the two misshapen whazz ya call its.
3. Hold the presses !
(04.27.17)
"Waldo" AKA Mark Sherry, finally made a statement that proves the pals are a worthless bunch of idiots not worth assisting .
( Unless it's to their grave.)
Perhaps there's hope for Waldo after all? Or, maybe not.
4. What 2 State Solution
Sammy ,   Newcastle   (04.27.17)
They glibly talk about this thing called a 2 State Solution?

How?

Is it Israel and just a Palestine in the West Bank?
Or
Israel and a Palestine A in the West Bank and a separate Palestine B in Gaza? That sounds like a 3 state solution?
Or
Israel and an East Palestine in the West Bank and a West Palestine in Gaza somehow conjoined by a glorified ‘motorway on stilts’ through Israel?
Or
Are they simply IGNORING Palestinians in Gaza as a lost cause and as if they were somehow less Palestinian than Palestinians in West Bank? Don’t they know in the words of the song YOU CANT HAVE ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER

In 1999 a group of Palestinian Academics recognising these fundamental contradictions came up with the PEG Plan…A Palestine in an expanded Gaza

A fully geographically and societal integrated state with easily defined and manageable borders that has a coastline, territorial waters, offshore gas and oil reserves, and potentially friendly and constructive neighbours

And for anyone who knows anything about Palestinian history the area of Gaza is central to Palestinian heritage. From 'Amr ibn al-'As regarded by many as one of the founding fathers of the Palestinian nation, to the burial site of Hashim ibn Abd Manaf Mohammmdes Great Grandfather of Mohammed to the authenticated records of Mohammads many visits to Gaza where the place reputedly provided him the perfect opportunity to contemplate develop and crystallize his teachings before becoming a prophet of Islam.

What an opportunity, if only we could seize it
5. unity .....

Abbas vowed to create unity between Fatah and Hamas. Actually he is forming unity with the other doner nations choosing to refuse further aid to Gaza. There is no such thing as "money well spent" if given to Hamas. Hamas, like Hezbollah, is a disease not a savior.
