#1 Oh, to be a mattress salesman in Gaza.

#2 ...noting that he was targeted in front of his house after returning from prayers. He was one of the movement's political officials in southern Gaza Strip.

He was a good boy, flossed regularly and always called his mother after ordering up another homicide bombing.

Forget being a mattress salesman in Gaza, how about selling popcorn in Israel?

Put the pasta on boil ladies, the gunmen will be hungry!

I wouldnt run around calling it civil war, somebodys gonna compare body counts to Iraq.

It really does resemble more closely a mafia type gang war, which perhaps should not be surprising.

#9 I wouldn't run around calling it civil war, somebodys gonna compare body counts to Iraq.

Gotten the words out of my mouth. I am amused that a handful of people killed in Palestine qualifies as "civil war" to Rantburger eyes, but many dozens of people killed in Iraq EVERY SINGLE DAY is merely MSM propaganda when they label it civil war.

But actually, I have no problem believing that Palestine is ALSO devolving to civil war (though, unlike Iraq, not there yet). After all, a civilization civil war throughout the Islamic War (and NOT a "clash of civilizations") is the current stage of the conflict, to the pursuit of the Islamic Caliphate. With the exception of Arab imperialism against Israel, all other attacks against the West have so far served the role of provocation, distraction or intimidation. Not actual territorial conquest or domination.

The *actual* game of territorial domination is currently occurring in Muslim-on-Muslim civil wars throughout the Islamic sphere itself. Somali islamofascists taking control of Somalia, battling other Muslims there. Sudan islamofascist government committing genocide against other Muslims in Darfur. Taliban controlling areas of Northern Pakistan. Shiite goon squads murdering Sunnis in Iraq, or vice versa. And yeah, Fatah against Hamas, in Palestine.

You'll know when it's no longer an Islamic civil war, but an actual "Clash of Civilizations", when Islamofascists start targetting Westerners more often than they target fellow Muslims.

#10 Hi, Aris, nice to have drop by, especially with a very good point.

#11 No Aris, you have it wrong. Muslims are militarity conquering, massacring and replacing peoples in even less developed places than the ummah, primarlily in Africa. In Europe, it is demographic conquest via immigration. Take for example Greece. Albanian immigration has gone from 0 to 6% of the population in just 10 years. That number does not include Arab immigrants who are at vanguard of radicalizing muslims the world over. When that is included, Greece is already at the 10% muslim population in a very short time. Think rate of France x 5, and they are not leaving. In another 10 years, will the number be 20% or 40%? 20 or 40% matters little. With the Greek birth rate of 1.3 children per woman, you will be conquered, and not a shot fired.

#17 Hey Sea - Nice mirror image!

Aris - long time no Sea. Good point, but the line between Islamic Civil War and The Clash of Civilizations is somethimnes blurry, from where I sit.
