I never said it wasn't OK for you to bad mouth Israel. See...this is why I believe you are nothing more than a high school child who can't even wipe her nose. The bull you pull out of your rear astounds me. And you're as thick as a ditch. Anyone who cannot distinguish being critical of an individual, or a political ideology and agenda, is not even in the same neighborhood as being against the country they are governing. How you come up with that dribble is beyond me.

WX: So its OK for YOU to be critical of Obama, but no one can be critical of Israel OR their government who are responsible for this flotilla diasater...double standards indeed...
SO that makes you anti-American AND hypocritical.
Being critical of the government that IS the legally elected representative of the country IS tantamount to being critical of the country. The MAJORITY of that country VOTED that government in and that government IS the representative of that country WORLD WIDE...
You do not care for the government Gaza and yet seem to hold it against ALL Muslims as you object to the aid being delivered and consider them ALL terrorists because they voted them in, are YOU getting this.....
Never mind answering because there is one rule for anti-Americans and another for what you call Anti-Israelis. There are many things I love about Ireland, and yet there are some I do not care for but that does not make me anti-Irish.

Again with this anti-Americanism because I think Obama is a tool. Again, for the 9 millionth time, that does not make me anti-American, it makes me anti-Obama, anti-Democrat, and anti-liberal. When I say bad things about America as a country, THEN I can be labeled as anti-America. I will not bad mouth my country because I love it. If I didn't love it, I wouldn't be so anti-Obama considering he is destroying it from the inside. You have been bashing the country of Israel, so that in turn makes you anti-Israel.

WX: As Voltaire said "I do not agree with what you have to say,but I'll defend to the death your right to say it"
Apparently you do not think that same right should be afforded to anyone with anything negative to say about Israel. Funny you are quite critical of Obama, does that make you anti-American?

Shuvonn...of you bothered to do any research you would know that Helen Thomas is NOT Jewish, but a christian of Greek orthodox...and apparently now she is a bigoted Nazi.

These pawns of Hizbollah and Hamas and by extension the freedom loving Iranian regime should have been deported to Guantanamo Bay.

Should Israel be wiped off the map? Think before you answer because your friends might disagree.

FLAIRISH: I have for years been hoping that the Palestinians will recognize Israels right to exist as I sincerely hope Israel recognizes Palestinians right to a state of their own. I would love to see the rockets into Israel stop as I would the ones into Gaza stop. WX:Like I have already stated I was no fan of Helen Thomas, but she IS jewish so unless she is following party lines she is to be hated also? Like Voltaire said *I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it* I have no wicked hatred for Isrealis, and you are a big fan of lumping and labeling so knock yourself out. As for your blood pressure, don't let different opinion to yours upset ya so much, Take a chill pill and take some time out to make or watch another pro-israeli video why dontcha? They sure are out in force now. I see not one ounce of compassion for ANYONE except Israel in your posts, and that is NOT the kind of Catholic God I KNOW. I do not need to just have my 45 mins in a pew weekly, MY God and I are on good terms and I prefer to live my life treating others as I would like to be treated. One may not always share the opinions of others, but they DO have the right to have them. And I can see there is right on both sides here but THIS time Israel screwed that up and may have jepordized their ONLY ally in the Middle East...
And it is amazing how one can manipulate video and audio recordings when it suits your agenda. They have refused an independent inquiry requested by Hilary Clinton, confiscated cell phones, camera and memory cards of all journaliasts on board ANY of the flotilla vessles and they stopped the live feed, now why on earth would ANYONE need to do that unless it was hiding something....

Irishwzman: It's rather futile arguing with pot smoking liberal lunatics who are weak, and see themselves as victims and losers
Here's a quote from Stuart Mill that sums up those loons:
"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself".

No...I think what FlaIrish means is that the crew of the Rachel Corrie cooperated with the Israelis and did everything that was asked of them...not beat them with clubs and pipes and throw fire grenades. Those are the terrorists that s/he was referring to.

FlaIrish: "Congratulations to the Rachel Corrie for a peaceful demonstration - much different than the terrorist thugs last week that had an entirely different agenda".
I assume you mean the ones who killed nine people?

I am done with you Shuvonn. You and people like you make me so sick. My blood pressure can't take anymore of your anti-Semitic liberal lunacy. You are closed minded to anything that isn't anti Israel. Obviously I am not Jewish....but Catholic. I have compassion. I know Israel is not perfect, but they are not radical Islamic terrorist who wish to murder everyone who sympathizes with Israel. But I understand that they just cannot seem to win. Helen Thomas is a bigoted and horrible person...and you and sean and the rest of ye are lumped right up there with her. I hope your wicked hatred for the Israelis gives you peace at night. Just know there is always room for you in Iran. You would fit in quite nicely with the holocaust denying people who hope to rid the world of Israel.

Congratulations to the Rachel Corrie for a peaceful demonstration - much different than the terrorist thugs last week that had an entirely different agenda. The Rachel Corrie crew has had their time in the spotlight, they'll go home to cheers and toasts, but what have they accomplished? Only bringing some supplies (hopefully, all legit supplies!) to some people who probably need the basics - Learn to respect the rights of a country (including our own in America) to defend itself and if you really want to help, urge Hamas and other Palestinians to respect the Israel right to exist and to live in peace, then go to the peace table to work out the future.
