UN worried about Paleos in Iraq

UN agency concerned over threats against Palestinians in Iraq

By The Associated Press [hat tip haaretz]

The United Nations refugee agency said Friday it was concerned about deteriorating conditions for Palestinians in Iraq, citing death threats against Palestinian families in one Baghdad neighborhood.

is this a micro violin or a nano violin song

The UN's High Commissioner for Refugees said it did not know who was behind the threats, but in the sectarian strife that has roiled Iraq, many Shiites and Kurds have come to view the Palestinians living in Iraq as sympathetic to the Sunni-dominated insurgency. There is also resentment over privileges they received under Saddam Hussein's rule.

#7  Dave D---your meter must be cooled in liquid helium to get those kind of sensitivities! Mine only goes down to 10 to the minus 6 GAS'es. And it's digital. Fred's analog unit only goes down to milliGAS.

Getting back to the Paleos, they never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity. They also have a knack for picking losers to latch onto. They sh*t into their messkits---again---now they have to live with the consequences.

#6  This just in: 10,000 crazy Paleos in Iraq decide to convert to Christianity and move to Afghanistan. Stating that Allah had instructed them to walk the fine line between notoriety and pointless foolishness, which would result in their being elected to various positions in the EU.

#4  Dave D. is one of those professional engineers. He doesn't mess around with the kind of tools the rest of us pick up at Home Depot. ;-)

#3  This would carry a bit more wait if these arschlochs ever evinced the slightest concern for the Israeli families under constant attack by Palestinians.

#2  dang...that's even reading lower than my ACME Wide-Range Digital Sympathy Meter. You must have paid extra to get that sort of hypersensitivity near abosolute zero.
