#1 Now, I would ask Bambi for a map of USA (any bets it doesn't include Texas, CA, etc...?)

#2 Grom, it also wouldn't include AZ and probably NM. Of course that means he would have to add 11 states to get to his count of 57. I'm thinking a few from China, one each from Pakistan, Venezuela, Syria and Greece with the remainder coming from Kenya.

#5 Re: Arizona (or northern Sonora, if you so wish). When it comes to "multiculturalism" you can't win here for trying! Yesterday I went to a Mexican bakery (Spanish speaking) and asked for a loaf of "Pan del muerte"! ("Day of the Dead" bread) - very sweet, tasty, colorful, with devilish figures on the frosting. I told the clerk it looked beautiful. She rolled her eyes at me and declared that she was not an idol worshiper - giving me a sour face all along. Said I: "I am a Jew not an idol worshiper either. I bought it to eat not worship!"

In the Hispanic area I live in no one calls themselves a "Protestant", but rather a "Christian". To them, Catholics are not Christians but idol-worshipers - they sound like anti-Al Smith voters. Moreover it is widely believed by many (including the "educated") that Jews read and follow the Koran. One day I will soon start foaming at the mouth when I do business with these folks...

#6 "We don't need no stinkin' maps" is an appropriate Israeli answer. BTW, I thought the Arabs believed he Israeli Flag represented the map of Israel. If so, use it! Pals belong (at best) on the east bank of the Jordan, if not the Euphrates. Then there is always beautiful Manchuko...

#7 I've worked with Paleo-American engineers who've had wall maps showing all of Israel, Gaza, and WB as "Palestine". Apparently, projection is acceptable. A "Israel, including Judea and Samaria" map would twist some knickers. I'm sure Bibi has one somewhere nearby just for negotiating purposes

#8 Hmmmmm....that map of Israel presented by P2K shows a greatly truncated Gaza. We are talking Superfund class cleanup stuff here, folks.
