PA urges Israel to join new hudna
2003-08-23
Palestinian leaders are trying to head off a fresh storm of violence by brokering another cease-fire with militants while urging Israel to halt targeted killings. Palestinian Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath says any new cease fire will need Israel to sign on along with militant groups. "We want a hudna between all the Palestinian Authority and all its organizations and Israel," Shaath said. "We want a full stop to violence."
"Okay, Charlie Brown! I'll hold the football and you kick it!"

And Israel sez...
Israel will not agree to any more 'hudna' type security arrangements with the Palestinians and will stick to its demand that the PA dismantle the terror organizations, a senior official said Saturday. The official said that dismantling Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other extremist groups will become the starting point for any future security arrangement with the PA, Israel Radio reported. Senior officials in Jerusalem said Saturday that Israel had no intention at this stage to expel Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat. The unnamed officials said that Arafat's influence and activities are being closely watched, and a decision regarding him will be made according to developments.

#5  Didn't Mohhamad end the first 10 year Hunda by ambushing, overrunning and exterminating the other party to the agreement?

#4  I want some of what Shaath is taking / using / addicted to. Gotta be some great shit.

Frank G - So you have a thing for the Chief Apologist, too? I particularly like his Saville Row suits while "his people" live in squalor and rubble... sadly, they never show his shoes - I'll bet they're hand-made Italian loafers and prolly cost more 'n the avg Paleo makes in a year. One of my "favorite" guyz. Dunno if we can swing the present this year, but you can bank that he's on someone elses list, too, and will go out with a boom someday! Will that suffice for now? ;->

KILL THEM ALL! They have no reason to live other than to spread hatred. Homas, Islamic Jugheads, and the rest can offer nothing towards peace. The only way to secure it is to ELIMINATE them. Throw in Al-Ishtar-murderers into that mix as well.

#2  Ok, lets see, let's have a hudna, then we'll blow up some Zionist children but that doesn't mean we're not observing the hudna, then you Zionist kill the guy who ordered to blow up the kids, then it's Dire Revenge and the hudna is off.
Then we'll declare a new hudna, we'll blow up some children but that doesn't mean...
Charles Schultz was a genius.

#1   What I have been impressed with is The Israeli Army's troops discipline.With a rather small population I'm sure many if not most of the Army has lost a relative or knows someone who's lost a relative to Palestinian terrorists.That no soldier has fired a clip into crowd or decided to car-bomb(remote detonated) a Palestinian neighborhood speaks of incredible discipline.
