Alan Johnston recounts his captivity. It doesn't sound like he had a Club Med vacation.

#12   maybe I'll go back when it's a member of the EU. After the Turks experience this might be the equivelant of saying when hell freezes over.

#9  Steve,
muslimbs also have a strict code of honor:
1) shoot only unarmed civilians and only in the back.
2) Enforce strick moral and chastity rules on everone you know, but rape your own sister when nobody sees and then kill her for desecrating the family honor.
3)Brasinwash other weakminded musslimbs to become suicide bombers, but never send your son or go yourself.
4)Never use anything but an ARMANI or Gucchi suicide vest when in action.


and thats the muslimb code of honor

#8  are you sure that some Klingons have not been recruited by Al-Kaida

Nah, Klingons follow a strict code of honor. They'd never hide behind women and children.

#4  EoZ, I believe that at the time of our grand-grand-grand-grandchildren, there won't be any Paleostinians. There won't be any Islam, either.

I hope that when Gaza is made part of the EU my grand-grand-grandchildren will already be colonizing the Andromeda Galaxy.
However, I suspect that even by this time the Palestinians will still be Ululating, shouting "Alla-Hu Akber" and in general having gun-sex.

#2  That would be when the hell freezes over. He's saying that he'll never go back as long as he lives.

#1  "I spent three years covering Gaza as a correspondent and I spent four months in solitary confinement there, and I feel — enough already with Gaza. You know, maybe I'll go back when it's a member of the EU" — the European Union, he said."

That would be the day, when Gaza is part of the EU.
I just wonder whether this would be before or after the EU is annexed to the Chalifat ?
