#1 Quivering upper lip diplomacy didn't work? So much for the free pass for the BBC. And how come the Jooos weren't blamed?

#2 shouldn't have waited 15 minutes for your "kidnappers", Alan. This caper didn't work out so well, did it?

#3 Ok, let's execute 10 palestinian prisoners now.

#4 If true, this might mean that the reporter didn't stage his own kidnapping. Or, if he did, he might have 'miscalculated' a bit. Do Over?

#7 Lie down with dogs, get your bones gnawed upon.

Memo to BBC: Stop feeding the crocodile.

#8 This makes it hard for the BBC. They're struggling with how to spin this as another example of the oppression of the palis caused by the occupation. I have faith, though. They'll figure it out.

#10 I'm sure the BBC could say some excuse like "root cause" or the "justified revenge" or how about using the word "strong passions" of the palestinian people led them to execute a westerner?

Gaza is a no mans land. There shouldn't be places like that.

#12 I concur with the mutitude of sentiments expressed above:

1. I call BS on this story unless the Paleos produce a cold body.

2. Even with the dead body of a BBC employee Bush and the Joooos get blamed for the murder committed by the Paleos.

3. Serves the BBC employee right if he is dead. He supported the Paleos and the BBC- that is- he supported the forces advocating genocide.. He got what he deserved.

#13 After long deliberation, I now conclude that the Israelis should, indeed, release all their paleostain prisoners. Their left arm should be released on May 1, their right arm on May 10, their left leg on May 20, and their right leg on May 30. The torso should be released on June 6th, and the head should be quietly buried in a secret location known only to a few Israeli special-forces types, somewhere in eastern Jordan. Then go get some more to do the same thing with. Sooner or later, there won't be any paleostain terrorists, and eastern Jordan will stink.

#14 But we did not kill the stringer.

#15 Just a friendly fire incident.

Nothing to see here. Let's move along...

#16 Ooops, Ab Dul, I shot the reporter as I was telling a joke!

You idiot!

What shall we do?!

Let's say we did it!

LOL

#17 Only because I'm slightly less bloodthirsty than OP, but I too would release all the Paleo prisoners: they all have to live in Gaza. Anyone of 'em found outside Gaza gets whacked.

Way I see it, they'd all join the various festivities in Gaza, and I could corner the Rantburg popcorn 'n' Snocaps concession ...

#18 they all have to live in Gaza

except when our ally, Egypt, allows them to transit from Gaza...If Israel were truly in control of that border, and Gaza was sealed, tunnels inclusive, I'd be with ya SW

#19 I totally subscribe to the 48 Hour Rule here.

He's not dead unless it's alcohol poisoning from sitting' around some junior PLO/Hamas member's flat, snortin' coke, sucking tequila, and watching "Baywatch" re-runs.

Shit, the smell of French male cologne there would kill most folks.

#20 Nuh-uh, #17 Steve.

I called dibs on the popcorn concession years ago.

But you can have the butter concession, & the Sno-caps are all yours. ;-p
