#4 Between poor marksmanship and meager organizational skills these idjits will never work their way up to a full scale civil war. More's the pity. Few other people on earth are more deserving of their loathsome fate than the Palestinians.

#5 The last five people were killed in unknown circumstances.
Polar bear attacks? Werewolves? Running with scissors? Just tryin to help out...

"Mystery Attacks Continue In Gaza Strip"
Senior PLA officials reportedly remain mystified this week following sporadic attacks by what were reported as polar bears, werewolves, running with scissors, zombies, and other perpetrators.

However, when confronted with the direct methods of the attacks, including video-tape and photographic evidence, PLA officials stated that they were "investigating and had not yet determined the precise nature of the attackers."

On Wednesday, the bullet-riddled corpse of an individual purportedly named Muhammad Abu Hijaila was found near the Shuja'iyaa market in north-eastern Gaza Strip. Ine official, who declined to be identified, is reported as saying "PLA security forces suspect a werewolf was the cuplrit in this incident given the evidence."

In other news, zombie hordes are continuing to run amok in Cuba since the reputed outbreak began. Public officials in the USA have speculated that the outbreak began as a result of Cuban President Fidel Castro's penchant for consuming human flesh, which appears to be related to his operations last year to cure intestinal cancer. Since Castro has not been seen in months, American officials speculated that the Cuban President had succumbed to his illness, been reanimated as one of the walking dead, and had then been confined to his hospital bed for some period of time.

"Sometime shortly after Castro's operation," said one American official. "We believe he broke containment and began this horrific plague."

Cuban officials refused to comment on the Amrican speculations beyond stating that President Castro was "doing well in his recovery and will be resuming his power and authority within the next few weeks."

#8 Chaos! Only in Gaza is that considered a product of the local environment. If it contributed to GDP, Gaza's would be the highest in the world.

#11 Hell wasn't Pelosi just there? I thought she said there would be "Peace in our time." Maybe that was another learnered politician.

#12 gromgoru, #9, yeah... that is the dilema... should we all get big MF SUVs so ME oil runs out faster? Then issue new bills and after a short sunset time frame refuse to replace/exchange the old ones.

Well, here is another idea... taking over ME oil fields. I mean, that was the presumed purpose of WoT-Iraq theater by libruls/moonbats, so we as well should do it at some point. ;-)
