1. Keystone Cops
Marcel ,   Florida   (08.03.07)
Instead of defeating the growing threat coming from Gaza, Olmert O.K. the limited Keystone Cop appraoch to dealing with it. Some of us know why he is using the 'no victory over the enemy' approach. The same appraoch he used on Hezbollah last year. For you brainwashed ones.his boss in Washington is calling the shots over Israel.You are once agains slaves headed for slaughter and don't know it.You are much easier to manamge this way.

You are pathethic. Look at the map UN partition plan 1947! ALL ARAB COUNTRIES REJECTED A PALESTINIAN STATE. YOU ARE PATHETIC LONG LIVE ISRAEL
4. Why not a wall?
Kim   (08.03.07)
They are being so very diligent building a wall so as to delineate the future border with the Arabs in the WB, often to the detriment of Jewish settlements - lest they should dare to expand! But in the meantime their border with Egypt and Gaza is left vulnerable and difficult to police.
5. Not so fast
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (08.03.07)
Rashid, I thought you had run off with that Russian mail-order bride, and I was heart-broken. As for those burkas, don't give them away so cheaply, yet. Use your imagination. If you cut off those things about mid-thigh, they'd sell like hotcakes. You could probably peddle most of them right back to all the "modest" girls in Iran. They could show a lot of leg without Mahmoud's ayatollah police having a clue who they are. With the rest you'd do a brisk business on eBay. Then you have somebody put a hem what you cut off and sell that as curtains. Just picture every window in Gaza with your curtains. Heck, you might end up owning the place you'd be so rich. Just in case you ever do want to "filter" into Isreal, do keep one burka as is. Showing your legs to some Israeli soldier might just make him a bit suspicious. And if the borekass does for you what that funygreek is doing for Yemenites, for heaven's sakes, lay off the stuff until you're 50 kms inside Israel.
6. Dear Rashid: order enclosed
Marvin ,   USA, America   (08.03.07)
Rashid, if you have them in extra large, and ship to the USA, put me down for one. It's not for my wives, I'm not married. I happen to be a cross dresser, and I think I will look very exotic in a burqa. (oh, and I want to support the palestinian right to free enterprise)
7. To #6
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (08.03.07)
If I came across a big guy wearing a burqa in one of my gay friends' hang-outs, and if I were to call out " Hey there, Marvin," would you answer me? Hehehehehe
8. Maybe that Sleepy Soldier was on duty again this afternoon
Alan ,   SA   (08.03.07)
You know who I mean -the one that falls asleep when he does duty in Gaza

papa jay   (08.03.07)
rashid, put me down for one unaltered burka. you know how many head masks you can make out of one burka? they would sell out in the hamas and jihad neighborhoods. strange how 2 ppl can infiltrate from Gaza to israel. the wall in the west bank is much weaker and far less patrolled then the one in Gaza. says alot about the wall in the west bank.
10. #2..Rashid
Nemesis   (08.03.07)
Israel is sending food to you from Sderot,eggs,tomatoes,mangos,etc. Very healthy food,believe me... As for the burkas..try the haredim..I think they'll be wearing them soon.
11. #5 M. Hartley: HILARIOUS!! LOL!!
(08.03.07)
12. BIG effing DEAL
Jake T ,   Alaska   (08.03.07)
They captured two infiltrators - In the meantime there are hundreds, no, thousands, of infiltrators given shelter, jobs, and eventually residence in the land of Israel. People who have NO connection to Judaism or Israel, no love for it, just the desire for an easier life and who will turn against the Jews at the very first opportunity. You'll see the gangs, the criminal activity, the terror from within. You people are giving me an ulcer!
13. LOL! I love M. Hartley - I needed that laugh!
Andy ,   ramat hasharon   (08.03.07)
14. To everybody, except Rashid:
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (08.03.07)
I propose that we start a petition to grant Rashid honorary dual Israli-US citizenship. He's just about earned it. (We'll split his stash of burqas 50-50.) I was thinking of offering to trade him for Rivkah, but I wouldn't do that even to Hamas. They might get the idea that every Israeli is an Ezekiel, go totally berserk and come, like a biblical plague of locusts, swarming all over Israel.
15. Shoot all infiltraters on the spot!
jason white ,   afula,israel   (08.03.07)
Anyone employing illegal aliens should lose his or her business and house as well as sit in prison for a year or two.
16. #14..M. Hartley..RE: Rashid
Nemesis   (08.03.07)
I'll go with that..Rashid is cool..believe me. Did you ask him if women were included in the burquas,or if they're just empty one woman tents?
17. #6 - I think that Marvin the crossdresser is very funny too!
Joe   (08.03.07)
Rashid and Marvin - you guys could have your own comedy duo. I can already picture both of you. LOL! C'mon Rashid and Marvin "The Perfect Middle East Solution", Hollywood is waiting for you!
18. use a burka as a food catching net
jack bauer ,   usa   (08.04.07)
next time when the folks from sderot shoot their fruit over it tastes better if you dont have to scrape it up off the ground just a friendly tip
19. To #16
M. Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (08.04.07)
You're on your own for the women, but which woman could resist one of Rashid's fine burqas??? Most of all, I do hope that Rashid takes the foolishness in the good-hearted spirit in which it's meant. I would never intentionally hurt someone's feelings who has such a sense of humor under what, I suspect, are pretty trying circumstances, if he does live in Gaza. This being the internet, he could, of course, be sitting in Lodi, California, laughing himself silly at all of us.
20. My Rashid Resolution :-)
M, Hartley ,   Atlanta, US   (08.04.07)
By the powers not invested in me by anybody ever since I got to this country – except for the Internal Revenue Service who has me on speed dial for whenever Washington needs more money- and by every federal agency who put me on hold until their offices were closed and then hung up on me, but with the full co-operation and agreement of my local electric company whom I called on their emergency number which they have to answer and whose Spanish-only-speaking customer rep didn’t understand a word I said, because I really didn’t have an emergency, I hereby bestow US Home Hood Status on one burqa-peddling character using the screen name “Rashid,” who doesn’t know any better than to pass himself off as a Palestinian which we, the people everywhere, suspect to be untrue in light of his off the wall humor. This resolution has been seriously questioned by my French sister-in-law, who, to save her life, can’t figure out what I am doing in, of all places, Gaza, but who will inform my brother that his sister has gone off the deep end and no longer lives in the US, but is riding around Gaza on a camel with some unsavory character named Rashid who, at the mere mention of rush hour, mans one end of some tunnel, while she hangs out at the other end, both of them peddling burqas to anybody coming or going; be that from Egypt to Gaza or from Gaza to anywhere, whether above or below ground or over, under and through the gaps in some wall. Hey, it’s not my fault that this sister-in-law doesn’t understand English so well and that I didn’t remember the French for galloping insanity right off the bat. I am sure, though, that my brother will support my certification of Rashid as a Homy In Good Standing after his usual, 3 AM call to me and once I’ve explained the intricacies of this internationally sensitive situation that involves everybody from Iranians to Israelis and from Palis to one US crazy, not to mention the armed forces of several other countries, who may, however, only be Bedouins or Mormons wearing funky outfits or yeshiva students who are simply lost and looking for water in the middle of the Negev. Although gifts and donations will be appreciated, please lob overripe tomatoes, rotten apples and eggs, pomegranates, carrots and infected melons at the charity of your choice. Anyone in favor of this resolution, please, tb an “Aye.” What the heck, if the UN can come up with BS resolutions, so can I.
21. I vote that we let Rashid in & keep Marcel out.
LBJ ,   TEXAS   (08.04.07)
22. Khalid&Gazan say Beton/Concrete Wall is OK if its on IL land
Alan ,   SA   (08.04.07)
So get rid of that Chicken Coop Wire and build a really strong wall made out of Reinforced Beton/Concrete about 20 metres high round Gaza BUT be sure its all 100% on Israel land to make it acceptable to Pals ..
23. To Rashid
Nora ,   Israel   (08.04.07)
I think you should put an add in a British newspaper - sounds as though they need lots of burkas in Englandstan.
24. illegal residents
(08.04.07)
do you mean that armed Israeli soldiers invading Gaza are illegal residents ?
25. Keeping Milk & Meat dishes separate is easier than Good & Ba
meir elazar   (08.04.07)
Keeping Milk & Meat dishes separate is easier than Good & Bad Palestinians. It is reasonable obvious that the economic conditions in Gaza are so bad that PALs must risk their lives to infiltrate Israel looking for work to provide for their families. Those people who are not violent, not associated with terror groups are another victim of PAL terror. The constant terror attempts has forced Israel to devise counter-terror measures including protected borders to prevent infiltration of terrorists. The terrorist have abused the kindness of Israel in the past of providing jobs to acquire information about Israeli establishments. This resulted in the Park Hotel bombing in Netanya and Hebrew University cafeteria. Therefore Israel had to shut the access and jobs for Palestinians. The borders and mobility obstructions are taking a severe toll on PALs but they must realize that the terrorists created the situation and the PALs must resolve their problems if they wish to improve their lives. We must also remember while we are protecting our society from terrorists that there are PALs that are not terrorists and all they want is a chance to work and provide for their families. They too are silent victims. They can't complain to PAL govt or Israeli govt. Maybe guidelines are needed for threat assessment. If PALs are seen planting explosives, by all means kill them. If they are unarmed and trying to infiltrate Israel, maybe some measure are needed to first try to SAFELY capture them or give them the opportunity to surrender. Again, the intent here is in no way to risk soldiers' lives but also not to kill PALs needlessly.
26. If I had known
Chaya ,   Bat Yam, Israel   (08.04.07)
If I had known they were in town, I would have invited them over for a Shabbat meal!
27. marcel#1,slaves are the pagans who pray statues
Keren ,   Israel-SP   (08.05.07)
