if we are prepared to swop land for peace can we swop the harideem for the alawites as they hate israel less then then the ultras who are trying to take over the country. how bad could it be?

if the current government continues to dilute the Jewish population.

There are 56 Muslim nations to take care of their Syrian Muslim brothers, but Israeli leaders prefer that little Israel shoulder the responsibility that belongs to the ummah - the global Muslim community. Israeli leaders must study the Koran war book and the 1,400 year history and conquests of Muslims. In Islam, the world is divided into two: the House of Islam -- the 56 nations that have been conquered by Islam and the House of War, the nations not yet conquered by Islam - the rest of the world. Why are Israeli leaders so eager to invite into Israel, the trojan horse of Muslims who hate Jews?

Your point about UK's immigrants from what you call "former Commonwealth countries" (actually, former colonies and now commonwealth countries) verges on xenophobic paranoia as usual. In the UK any politician who tried to make your point that the UK 'bears the brunt... of these ... not very good British citizens' would be laughed out of town. It's so sad when someone vaguely intelligent uses half-baked nonsense to try and justify their own intense hatred. I think we'll see justifying slavery soon and decrying US civil rights.

"Laughed out of town," you say? Like when the London tube was hit by terrorist bombers? Like the endless number of terrorist cells that MI5 has managed to neutralize (at great cost to the British taxpayer, I might add)? How about the barely-foiled potential disaster when a plot to blow up airplanes out of Edinburgh was discovered? How about all the rioters just this past summer (did you think it was lost on anyone that it wasn't just "disaffected youth," but the children and grandchildren of all those immigrants from former colonies? It wasn't.)? Syria has gone to war against Israel three times. In 1982, they engaged Israel in a dogfight in which Israel shot down some 83 Syrian MiGs (without the loss of a single Israeli plane). Moreover, between 1948 and 1967, the Syrian military used its perch in the Golan Heights to shell Israeli kibbutzim. Children were essentially raised in bomb shelters. Tractors had to be armor-plated. There are a lot of people with very long memories who do not want Syrians seeking safe haven in Israel, and it has nothing to do with xenophobia, and everything to do with remembering all the evil visited upon Israel by the Syrians. Besides -- wouldn't they be more comfortable in Arab or Moslem lands? Shouldn't the United Nations do its job and see to the needs of any dislocated people? Why should the burden accrue to Israel?

laughed out of town. Yes I stand by that. What an inane attempt to blame last summer's riots on immigrants. The style of politics you espouse went out of fashion when Oswald Mosely as put in jail. The analysis presented in #65 is hollow, bigoted, reeking of fetid xenophobia. Stay in New York where you might have an audience among the former slave-owners, but obviously multi-culturalism hasn't caught up with you.

Israel will remain a Jewish State forever and ever. It is written in the sky. The current government will be gone. Have faith Dan... The government of haven wiil take over and lead Israel to a better place in the universe.

The analysis presented in #65 is certainly not bigoted and reeking of fetid xenophobia as you have stated.And your last paragraph is ridiculous.You obviously do not like intelligent jewish women disagreeing with your posts.I am quite sure that the "Palestinian" readers simply adore your comments.

You seem to be long on personal attacks against me, and short on substantive responses. You have yet to address the HUGE problem in the UK caused by Islamic terrorist cells. You have failed entirely to address the issue of why Israel should do the work of the highly-funded United Nations programs designed to aid refugees. In fact, you have not addressed a single point I have made, save to accuse me of being xenophobic. Shame, shame. You sound like a broken record. Time to toss YOU in the trash! By the way -- slave-holding was rare in New York and the other Northern states. It was common in the Southern states -- the ones which seceded. Don't you know ANYTHING?

"Put them on Russian Warhips"? Now this is the best idea I have heard so far, since the Russians want to help so badly they would risk being involved in a great regional war let them simply help the neediest of the refugees thereby helping to defuse this crisis. Thank-You oh Mother Russia!

HAVE WE FORGOTTEN OUR HISTORY? WASN'T IT THE SADDUCEES WHO INVITED ROME INTO jERUSALEM TO FIGHT AGAINST THE PHARASEES? THEN ROME SWALLOWED US ALL WHOLE. I KNOW THE JEWS ARE NICE BUT, WHAT WILL BE THE CONSEQUENCES? REMEMBER A VEGETARIAN WHO STANDS IN FRONT OF A LION AND SAYS, 'DON'T EAT ME, I'M A VEGETARIAN! WHAT DOES THE LION DO?

YA CHATZUF!
