So when are the mobile crematoriums deployed?
Have to make those Greater Israel deserts bloom with Arab ashes, right?

You never stop do you
There isn't a shred of evidence that any kind of massacre occurred but that doesn't bother you. The Arabs said it so it must be true. You are pathetic in your hatred of Israel.

Well, the massacre of Sabra and Shatila in 1982 comes to
mind, and of course Ariel Sharon, then the "defense" minister, was responsible. Now that he's the prime minister, should I expect less? [link|http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn?pagename=article&node=&contentId=A16966-2002Mar12|Last week in Ramallah] Some Israelis were also incensed that troops were writing numbers on some of the prisoners' arms and foreheads, using blue markers, a practice that Arafat likened to the Nazis' treatment of Jews in World War II. Using an SS "How to..." manual? You do have that concentration camp with thousands of "terrorists". The journalists called out to the soldiers to hold their fire, saying there were no gunmen in the hotel. The Israelis insisted there were. A camera belonging to ABC News was struck by Israeli bullets seven times, including once directly in its lens, CNN reported from the hotel. Not to forget the [link|http://www.jpost.com/Editions/2002/03/13/News/News.45119.html|Italian photographer] that was killed. Yep, nothing as bad as witnesses. Sure, both sides are lying to get their point across. But only party one is in control of the events and has a "sanitation corps". Perhaps you were spared the sight of what Jenin looks like now. Looks like a "population control" project of a neo-Nazi barbaric regime. But, I'm waiting for an accounting of missing people. And, I don't hate Israel, only the current government and what it has done to its own people. There are no limits to what it will do to achieve that Greater Israel. Peace would mean giving up that dream and must not occur. Well done, in that goal! All but one other country in the world recognizes this. And, I am deeply ashamed that the US has lost its sense of justice. Israel still has decent and brave people and I wish them well and for Israel to go on as a nation. Happy 54th!

Still waiting for all those bodies ...
The fact is that there are no mass graves etc. when will you finally admit it. Sabra and Shatilla, as you very well know, was committed by Lebanese Christian Phalangists

So the IDF did not surround Sabra and Shatilla with tanks?
[link|http://www.arabeuropean.org/Documents/Document0003.html|Liink.] As to the decision for the entry of the Lebanese militiamen into the Sabra and Chatila camps, it appears from the testimony of Rafael Eitan, Israel's Chief of Staff, before the Israeli Commission of Inquiry that it was taken by him and by Sharon on September 14, 1982. This was followed by meetings between those two military chiefs and the Phalangist commanders to coordinate the operation of the militiamen's entry into the camps. The decision to allow the militiamen's entry into the camps was approved by the Israeli Cabinet on September 16 after it began to be put into execution. Yes, after WW-II the Germans population denied any knowledge of concentration/extermination camps. [link|http://www.globalpolicy.org/intljustice/general/2001/sab&shat.htm|Another link.] [link|http://www.mfa.gov.il/mfa/go.asp?MFAH0ign0|Kahan Commission], the official Israeli report: The Commission determined that the massacre at Sabra and Shatilla was carried out by a Phalangist unit, acting on its own but its entry was known to Israel. No Israeli was directly responsible for the events which occurred in the camps. But the Commission asserted that Israel had indirect responsibility for the massacre since the I.D.F. held the area, Mr. Begin was found responsible for not exercising greater involvement and awareness in the matter of introducing the Phalangists into the camps. Mr. Sharon was found responsible for ignoring the danger of bloodshed and revenge when he approved the entry of the Phalangists into the camps as well as not taking appropriate measures to prevent bloodshed. Mr. Shamir erred by not taking action after being alerted by communications Minister Zippori. Chief of Staff Eitan did not give the appropriate orders to prevent the massacre. The Commission recommended that the Defense Minister resign, that the Director of Military Intelligence not continue in his post and other senior officers be removed. Your statement absolving Israel is morally bankrupt.

Actually the Kahan commission shows the morality of Israel
How many other countries would appoint a commission of inquiry which made a very serious investigation with consequences for senior officials. However, the bottom line is that in retrospect it is easy to say that Israel should have seen it coming, but in realtime it is not that simple or easy.

Re: Actually the Kahan commission shows the morality of Isra
I fully agree that the Kahan commission shows that there are moral people in Israel. But, they are no longer in power. Today, either no commission would be formed or the conclusion would totally absolve Israel.

And how do you know that ...
I guess you know taht the same way you know that Israel massacred all those Palestinians, and has stolem all that Palestinian land. Do you know that a commission has been formed and is investigating the deaths of Israeli-Arabs in riots in October 2000?

While the commisiion has issued no formal report yet ...
It did notify various parties (including the former Foreign Minister)that they are under investigation and need to present a defense. The commisdion has interviewed alot fo people and has produced a huge amount of documents which need to be reviewed by the defendents.

So you never heard of the Warsaw uprising?
Brutal oppression is tough to accept. And, some will resist in any way they can.
The Palestinian Arabs have had 35 years of brutal oppression.
What's this about starting a war, anyway?

I wonder what they might have done...
...had they suffered under Nazi rule for 35 years.
From the Jews I know, they probably wouldn't resort to suicide bombing, but you never know...

Yeah, I know that...
And I know that the reason for the Warsaw Ghetto uprising was because the Germans tried to "liquidate" the camp.
Still, from the Jewish folk I have known, my feeling is that they'd just gripe about it a lot, and not actually do anything. :) Guess all the ones with gumption went to Israel, for better or worse...

As to that 'gumption'..
A common dis for the group, after the Holocaust became known. Thing is, that Ministry of Propaganda was the exact prototype for M$ Marketing (and I still maintain - Billy is G\ufffdbbels' bastard reincarnation).
There were movies of er 'resettlement villages', showing the children at play, the adults in the library.. fields of vegetables being tended. All orchestrated with the actors under penalty of instatnt death. Remember: never before had some State entity set about the methodical and *TOTAL* ahhihilation of an entire homo sap group.
Who would have suspected.. the actual deetination of the "resettlement trains" - BEFORE ??? As with 9/11 - never before had a passenger airliner been deemed a 'weapon'... 20/20 is Sooo convenient a judgment pulpit.
So most went along, until reports confirmed the unThinkable was the fact. Many (dunno #s anymore..),like my honorary Jewish Grandmother\ufffd Trude.. left Germany early - as the books began to be burnt and the rhetoric resembled a Montana Black Helicopter Prevention meeting. Later on.. that became near-impossible, and surrounding countries - like The Swiss for an odious example - collaborated with the Nazis in suppressing escape; returning escapees virtually and also in fact.
Tell me how easily *You* could get your act together, find transport (despite a plethora of 'permits', "taxes" on anything you might own, really RED tape): and leave your present locale for another country ... say, over a period of a few days or a week ? And.. would you ?
I suppose simply, that the ratio of bravery/cowardice among any group is: the same Gaussian. I don't need to 'suspect' that - family and other considerations.. keep folks anchored long after they have become apprehensive. Hell, some at IWE, offered work in another area -- cite the very same reasons for remaining in a local desert; remaining with Nazi-trained employers VS A Chance to do Better. (or.. just to live?) And they aren't exterminating slow-coders. Yet.
Rest case.

Guess you can grok too -
Why it is that some of us who Heard It almost-Live (even as kids.. one remembers the inflections in voices, esp. from Uniformed voices in newsreels) -- note a similarity of the Ashcroftian intellectual level of speech and.. the mechanisms of all propaganda: talk about fuzzy-warm / bloody-cold stuff as alternatives + 'We' shall keep you safe.. if you just go along with *this* little absurdity today.
Of course he isn't a pukka Nazi (!) yet his dogma is worn on his sleeve. As with all True Believers, he is *Certain* that his POV is the Right one for all. Clearly this is his mindset - after all, his IS the One True God.
And Nazism was.. The One True Way for the Aryan Master Race to er "manage the sheep". What were "we in the West" *Thinking Of*.. as we watched the F\ufffdehrer methodically following the plot-line of Mein Kampff -- year after year ???
(I know that I haven't the foggiest idea yet - of how so many missed so Much for so long. Why should we expect to be more astute about creeping gradualism.. two generations later?)
Ashton it sure is fascinating to watch, though.. (though automatic Jew-hatred is too familiar to be even moderately interesting - as with a herpes vulgaris sore in corner of mouth, that you've had for a week)

2 answers
1. They would have been long gone well before 35 years (not multiplying from 800,000 to 3.5 million as the Palestinians have) 2. Just look at how the Jews suffered under the Tsar's in Russia in the 1800's and their responses: some left to either the US or Israel, some became COmmunist type radicals, the majority suffered in silence

Moral equivalence is impossible to accept.
You are seriously out of touch with reality. You're still this side of Holocaust denial, but just barely.
[link|http://www.angelfire.com/ca3/marlowe/index.html|http://www.angelfir...e/index.html] Truth is that which is the case. Accept no substitutes. If competence is considered "hubris" then may I and my country always be as "arrogant" as we can possibly manage.

Re: Moral equivalence is impossible to accept.
Hey Marlowe, you are an asshole!
I spent time in Nazi concentration camp when they were a going operation. My parents were slave laborers in Nazi Germany. I lost an infant brother at that time. The Holocaust was not entirely just for the Jews, you know. I was a child, but I know what it is to be cold and hungry, and I know what barbarism and oppression are first hand.
Denying the Holocaust is the very last thing I would do.
