#1 I guess that simplifies war planning with the IDF.

#2 ..interim Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas said on Wednesday there would be no peace until Israel tore it down.

Anyone still think that Mazen and/or any of his comrades in arms are really serious about "peace" with Israel?

#3 the wall is very unpopular among Pals. It would be very odd if Abbas didnt denounce it. The real question is will he refuse to act (stop incitement, crack down on terrorists, negotiate) while the wall is in place. We shall see.

#4 LH - his rhetoric to try and garner votes will come back to bite his ass. Either the IJ or Hamas will take him out when he reneges, or his admin will come to reside in a rubble-filled compound like the Muqata

#5 I think that the correct translation of Abbas' remarks is "Build it faster, higher, and stronger." Also, "shoot anybody and everybody that tries to tear it down or somehow get around, over, or through it." The Palestinians will never admit that the reason they live in a pestiliential s--thole is because they are the only ones that live in it.

#6 Maybe so, Frank G, but that would be the case whatever rhetoric he used.

Islamic Jihad operative 1: We gotta kill Abbas, he just signed an agreement with Sharon
Islamic Jihad operative 2: No way, he warned us he would during the election campaign, that means he gets to live.

I dont think so.

#7 sucks being the titular head of a psychotic gang of nihilistic hate-drenched killers, huh? Too bad, Abbas

#8 Its no suprise the animals resent their cage. If I were Abbas, I'd tone it down a bit though, I wouldn't want to spend my every waking hour listening for the approaching Apache's.

#9 Let them have their elections, declare that they are a state, and then LEVEL the f*cking snakepit the next time one of those state-sponsored terrorist groups act.

How long must this charade continue? When I was growing up, my folks purchased a 1968 set of Colliers Encyclopedias. When I was home for Christmas, I looked up "Israel" in the encyclopedia. A full 24 pages was devoted to the topic, and there wasn't ANY real mention of the bullsh*t that passes for "the current political position". Instead, it merely noted the history of Israel, the history of the Jews, and that Israel had defended itself a number of times from its violent neighbors.

Since 1968 a total and complete DO-OVER of history has occured--and we're all the worst for it.

#10 It works, else it wouldn't be an "issue". Build it faster.

Paleo Politics is a unique creature... an institutional death & murder cult.

It will only be over when one side is wiped out, decimated. As long as the Israelis (and Americans) are not suborned or betrayed from within and meet the threats from all quarters of Islam head on, such as the Mad Mullahs, it will eventually be the Paleos who effectively exterminate themselves.

#11 the wall is very unpopular among Pals.

Judging from the effectiveness of surrouding Gaza with a similar fence, I can see why the Paleos wouldn't like one paralleling Israel's border with the West Bank..

#12 Of course. It interferes with their religious obligation to kill the infidels.

#13 They have the Wailing Wall. The fence needs a name, folks. Ideas?

Flailing Wall
Fence of Seethes (bad Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves pun)

#15 "tear down this wall and drown yourselves in the Med, then we'll be ready to start talks..."

#16 dot com is right. build it faster....build it higher. if the wall wasn't effective there wouldn't be any crying and whining from the muslim perverts...
