You like to live in the past don't you eh? Whilst it is good to see you coming to FD's assistance, I'm not sure you're helping. The PLO/Fatah are your side's new bestest friends now - try and keep up young one (I know most of these events took place before you were born, but please don't embarrass y...

Iran unveils a slimmed down version of Thunderbirds 2! ;) http://www.bilderberg.org/tb2.jpg On second thoughts - no, the resemblance is quite thin! :mrgreen: But I'm sure this is going to be a cue for a whole lot of sabre rattling and hypocritical views about 'civilisations', 'wiping Israel off the ...

Rival protests held at New York Ground Zero mosque site Hundreds of people took part in rival protests over plans for a mosque near the site of the 9/11 terror attacks. Police kept the banner-waving groups apart, although there were no reports of violence between supporters and opponents of the sch...

Oh dear, the loon-in-chief has been caught out again. This is from SpencerWatch.com and is about Spencer's take on the story of this thread: Robert Spencer’s “Cut and Paste” Scholarship Robert Spencer calls himself a “scholar of Islam”, but the more one delves into his “scholarship,” the more one re...

No young one - Spencer's quotes have been given in full and he's been exposed for selectively quoting and maliciously misinterpreting the Quranic verse. Well and truly punked. Repeating your loon fantasies can't obscure this plain fact, so put away those loon-reality-distortion specs. cheers, Shafique

shafique

I also simply asked whether you had any shame over the fact that your quote was from a 2000 survey which cited Fatah's corruption as a major cause of concern for the Arab Israelis? It's pretty clear that to pretty much all non-fanbois that those living under occupation wish to be liberated - especia...

What has any of the above fantasies got to do with the facts about Park 51? It is good to see that not all NYers have bought the misinformation peddled by the loons, notably this aspect: Robert Spencer employs a number of deceptive arguments and tactics in his polemics that often go uncontested in t...

As this Haaretz editorial clearly states - the issue of building more colonies by the Israelis after the freeze is due to end will establish whether Netanyahu is serious about Peace negotiations or not: Time to pay up Soon it will be clear whether Netanyahu's maneuver was an empty one, designed to b...

shafique

Up until now, you've produced the selective quote from the 10 year old survey and a journalist saying: every one of the handful of East Jerusalem Arabs I spoke with in the last two weeks.. 'the handful'. Now, I linked to B'tselem's page on East Jerusalem. I presume you can't dispute their statement ...

Why isn't the best way for Israel to obey the law?

I second this. I've read quite a few of John Pilger's books - and also have highlighted his two documentaries on Palestine: Palestine is still the issue (one in 1974 and the follow up in 2002 - both with the same name).

It is also on Google videos, IIRC.

Probably unlikely to make it to the pages of JihadWatch, or the media in the West - so I thought I'd give a recent report of mercy in the Saudi justice system. The quality of mercy is not strain'd..

The Guardian's Charlie Booker has some fun at the expense of the opponents of the Islamic cultural centre. Read to the end to get what the title is about.. you'll be rewarded with a few laughs along the way! Enjoy 'Ground Zero mosque'? The reality is less provocative Millions of Americans are furiou...

An article from 1926 by Sir Muhammad Zafrullah Khan. Long, but thought provoking: We are at the threshold of an era in which religion will be less a matter of form and ceremonial and a subscribing to cut-and-dried propositions laid down by others than an individual experience and realisation, a livi...

Loon projection and fantasies rears its head again.

It is funny how predictable the loon reaction will be.

I love a bit of skeet shooting - it would be interesting to see if 'iron dome' etc can indeed shoot down these drones.

I trust that the kill rate will be better than the Patriots that were supposed to shoot down scuds!

Ah, interesting to see the parts of the news story left out by the young loon: Taliban 'negotiator' Wana residents described Noor Mohammad as an influential figure who had several times acted as a negotiator between the Taliban and the Pakistani government. There was no immediate claim of responsibi...

East Jersualem has been illegally annexed by Israel. I'm not sure how you can spin this fact. Why ignore what B'tselem highlights?: Israel’s policy gravely infringes the rights of residents of East Jerusalem and flagrantly breaches international law. East Jerusalem is occupied territory. Therefore, ...

Haaretz reports Israel has seen several high profile crime cases over the last several months, including a father suspected of killing his three children and n woman stabbed to death by her neighbor during her eighth month of pregnancy. Just this past week, a man stabbed his wife and son before atte...

This time, religious leaders from a number of faiths have stood together in support of Park 51: In attendance were more than 30 religious leaders, including about half a dozen local Jewish leaders. Other also present were Roman Catholics, Quakers, Episcopalians, Presbyterians and Muslims. Report fro...

Fortunately, what you or I think about international law and Israel's crimes doesn't really matter - which is a good thing all round. ;) Funny how citing facts can be viewed as arrogant, I could label the misuse of selective quotes and ignoring of crimes against humanity and international law, but t...

shafique

FD, you really must stop with the smoke and mirrors - no one listens to these Israeli spin stories any more, especially Israelis! You seem to be arguing that the criminal should get to choose what the definition of crime is (East Jerusalem's illegal annexation) or which laws the criminal should be s...

shafique

Still with the smoke and mirrors? Why do you refuse acknowledge that Israel has broken the law? BTW - what other criminals/crimes do you support? No one here is saying that the rights of the East Jerusalem residents should be ignored - in fact, the facts on the ground show that the vast majority of ...

shafique

:) So, you don't have the courage of your convictions. Loons are pretty shallow - quick to accuse others if they condone crimes, but have when Israel's crimes and injustices are pointed out, suddenly it is everyone else's fault. :) You brought up East Jerusalem, I merely invited you to join in with ...

shafique

Flying Dutchman has expressed some interesting views in the Peace Process resumed thread in relation to East Jerusalem. For fanbois East Jerusalem poses a particularly thorny problem. This stems from the fact that the law is pretty clear on the status of East Jerusalem and it is extremely difficult ...

shafique

It is worth highlighting the fact that much of what has been annexed by Israel is actually historically part of the West Bank - which partly explains why the UN refuses to condone this act of theft: Legal status of East Jerusalem and its residents Between 1948 and June of 1967, Jerusalem was divided...

Spencer and you have lost it big time. Guru Bob just doesn't want to be labelled a criminal for spreading his messages of hate - I mean why else would he object to the criminalising of racial or religious hatred that incites to violence? Approved by the U.N. Human Rights Council last Friday, the res...

Media Matters has a comprehensive coverage of the Obama Muslim myth - and the blame lays squarely with the loony right in the US. Note that Pam Geller has an honourable mention in the list.

I love the ad in Spencer's article: http://imagec12.247realmedia.com/RealMedia/ads/Creatives/EaglePub/adsales_GNPweb_Frontsight-0824/2010-0727_fs-300x250-s.gif And the comments are enlightening too: Every word from the obomination's lying mouth spews his hatred for America, yet he has the guts to sa...
