Riyadh-West Rift Is Over Palestine: Naif
2004-06-18
No, it's not. It's over civilians getting their heads cut off and little kids being murdered in their beds. The same old crap smells the same every time. Find another talking point.

#8  Just wondering what the Arabs would be using as an excuse if Israel was in, say, South America? Amazing how what, five or six million doctors, lawyers and businessmen can keep five hundred million goathearders down in their spare time, ain't it?
Besides, Zenster, if the masonry on that place is anything like current "Arab technology", those urinals would fall apart after one flush.....

#7  Interior Minister Prince Naif has said the plight of the Palestinians is the main cause of misunderstandings between Saudi Arabia and Western governments.

“Our problem with the West is perhaps the Palestinian cause. The suffering of the Palestinians is great. And we do not forget that the third mosque of Islam is in Jerusalem,” he said in an interview published yesterday in the French daily Le Figaro.


This might have been so at some prior time, but ever since 9-11 the focus has been shifting a bit, Naif, old boy. In fact, because of the Khobar atrocity and Johnson's murder, our missile targeting coordinates focus is beginning to narrow right down on your own corrupt little hotbed of terrorist activity, laddy.

Rest assured, too, how "we do not forget that the third mosque of Islam is in Jerusalem." In fact, if we are forced to obliterate Mecca and Medina, then we also should proceed to dimantle your precious Dome of the Rock, stone by numbered stone, and:

1.) Hold it for safe keeping until Islam is worthy of its own shrines.

2.) Sink every pebble of it in the Marianas Trench.

3.) Pulverize the masonry and cast urinals out of it for the Israeli military to use. (Just as your beloved Palestinians turned the Wailing Wall into a pissoir.)

#5  Palestine is the issue?

It's true that it infuriates the Arab / Muslim world that we won't let them kill the Jews. But that's not the whole of it.

"Palestine" is a zit on the tip of the tail of the dog. This is the standard "reason" for actions all over the world - the Arab Passion Play used to obfuscate their intentions, distract attention from their dictators/mullahs/thugs, and their excuse for fomenting war on every non-Muslim on the planet.

Look around the planet. Locate where there is unrest, killing, massacres, blind hatred based upon religion, whining and mewling about 'freedom' and 'fairness' (lol!) -- you will find that 90% involve Muslims attempting to expand Dar al Islam. It's as simple as that. Everything else is cover for this fact.

No offense intended, but your statement is a very thin slice of reality relative to the body of facts about Islam available.

#4  Palestine is the issue. They want to kill all the Jews in Palestine, and we won't let them.

#3  It was the Arab governments that urged the Palies to leave in '48 and have left them twisting in the wind ever since. Maybe it is time for a Greater Israel from the banks of the Nile to the Tigris. The one real hope these clowns could have of joining the modern world and they have actively sought to destroy Israel for over fifty years and gotten their asses kicked every time they tried.

#2  Naif needs to be taken down.

#1  He can't. It's all they care about.

Beheaded American? Eh, what does Naif care? It was just another kaffir servant to him.
