Netanyahu’s cancellation of meeting with Obama delays efforts to improve ties
Netanyahu’s cancellation of meeting with Obama delays efforts to improve ties
Oh look, Barack, a leader of a nation stops what he is doing and goes to attend to a crisis from close-by. Never mind that he caused this crisis for the moment. Never mind that the Israeli government lies more than a three year old caught with their hand in the cookie jar. Ignore the fact that the Israeli government apparently thinks that any unreasonable, unconscionable action of theirs is automatically justifiable and correct because they are God’s Gift to Terrorism….
The point is he’s not going to just do a drive-by photo-op!
Tensions Escalate over Israel Raid on Gaza Aid Flotilla
Tensions Escalate over Israel Raid on Gaza Aid Flotilla – TIME
True to form the Israeli government is lying about what started it. I wonder if they even know they are lying or if they have convinced themselves that this is appropriate behavior because after all, they are God’s special little spoiled brats.
Raid Jeopardizes Turkey Relations
Raid Jeopardizes Turkey Relations – NYTimes.com
More even-handed, mature, well thought-out, and clearly respectful of their neighbors foreign policy from the nursery school class that is the Israeli government. I’m not saying Israel shouldn’t exist. I’m pro-Israel. It’s just that lately I’m also pro-bitchslapping-Israel’s government.

No playgrounds for the Palestinians!
The Israeli government is so fair and even-handed with their neighbors.
Truly, Yahweh must be so proud.
Kenya’s draft constitution under fire for Islamic courts
Kenya’s draft constitution under fire for Islamic courts – CSMonitor.com
A lot of sides to this issue. I can’t support the Churches because of their anti-life, anti-woman stance but I agree that Islamic courts have no business being codified into laws of state.
Tight Pants Ban Takes Effect In Indonesia’s Aceh
Tight Pants Ban Takes Effect In Indonesia’s Aceh : NPR
The world is going backwards, isn’t it? Can we consult with astronomers to see if the planet’s trajectory has reversed?
Maybe they would like that. There seems to be some sort of sexual dysfunction involved. These men forcibly take these woman’s pants off and then dress them up more to the men’s liking? Kinky. I wonder if their mothers molested them. Men who refuse to take responsibility for their own control of their own sexuality and can not see a woman in anything other than a dark shapeless sheet without totally losing control of themselves clearly have some sort of weird sexual and Mommy issues.
Check these women out. They dress so luridly. The more I think about it the more I think there is a mass sexual dysfunction at play here.
All of the men who put this law in place will be reincarnated as female sex slaves in a palace decorated only with pictures of Mohammed.

Flashpoint village that straddles Lebanon-Israel conflict seeks peace – CSMonitor.com
If the Israeli government’s policy was to stay within its own borders a lot of problems would be solved. Of course that would entail them not acting like a bunch of entitled, self-centered, self-important, spoiled adolescents. Doesn’t seem too likely….

Obama to send more National Guard troops to U.S.-Mexico border
Obama to send more National Guard troops to U.S.-Mexico border
An armed boarder with a friendly neighbor? How Iron Curtain. How Israeli-Apartheid. His Republican base will be ecstatic. Oh…. Wait… Yeah….
So…. the very real danger to millions of people in Gulf doesn’t rate much visible military involvement but low-wage workers who keep their head down and are mostly unseen as they sneak in to do the dirty work, pay taxes, and then not collect benefits do?
Man, his capacity for being a complete and utter douche continues to amaze me.
Hey Massengill, you’ve got think of it like they’re toddlers. If you give in to them you only encourage them.

Th US is always off saving the world somewhere far away. Why do we let our neighbors in the the Caribbean wallow in such misery?
On second thought, maybe they are better off if we don’t get involved. Our track record sucks.
Even in this most recent conflict. The whole thing started ’cause we insisted the Coke guy be extradited.
