Israeli raids 'will spark retaliation'
2003-09-01
Israel's latest strikes on Hamas that killed two fighters in the Gaza Strip were a crime that will only fuel a cycle of retaliation, Palestinian Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath said yesterday. "It's another crime that will lead to more retaliation," Shaath said.
"Wanna see me hop on my cycle of violence and ride around the same old block?"
"Assassination leads to retaliation," Shaath said, adding that as Israel did not have the death penalty, killing a suspect without trial was "unacceptable".
"Us Paleostinians do have the death penalty, though, so bumping them off is okay for us..."
Shaath said the Palestinian Authority saw no alternative to the current US-backed Middle East peace plan and urged the world community to help revive the battered initiative. "Our resolve to return to peace is still there. Our commitment to end all killings and to have a real ceasefire is there," Shaath told a news conference at the end of a three-day visit to New Delhi.
"Our arms and ammunition are still there..."

#3  DDB - right on. The era of the "tortured logic" and moral equivalence between terrorist and soldier is dead. DEAD. Too many people are onto the game, fisking the liars of IndyMedia, et al, with hundreds of factual sources at their disposal. The Israeli - Paleo situation can't be spun to death and spoon-fed to us per their BS agendas anymore. The age of Big Media is over. Had we had the Internet back when Walter Crankcase pulled his "we can't win" stunt - and the truth of LBJ / McNamara and the Tuesday Targeting List Luncheon been revealed - there might've been a second American revolution once it was digested.

Amen to the IDF liquidating these cretins - and the non-willfully-blind seeing it is long overdue.

#2  Let's see Hamas blows up a bus load of kids and Israel nails the people responsible. I guess in the tortured logic for the religion of peace crowd that makes some kind of sense. Maybe now that the roadmap is a deadend, we can get about the business of getting rid of this pond scum.

"Wanna see me hop on my cycle of violence and ride around the same old block?"
Now that's funny!
