DIY Arab Hijacker Kits left elsewhere . Al-Shehhi checked out last Sunday without taking a three-ring binder full of handwritten notes, an English-German dictionary, an airplane fuel tester, a protractor, tote bag, aircraft manuals, maps and books, Surma said.

The Intifada is dead, long live the Intifada
The peace with Egypt, signed in 1977, resulted from Isreal's strategic need to isolate the dirty
war against the Palestinians from the larger Arab context, of which Egypt was the leading
power. The move was successful, allowing Israel to invade Lebanon in 1982 without worrying
about a Southern front. The invasion itself was a move to undermine the political pressure to
recognize and negotiate with Palestinians over land....

When Daniel Pearl was killed by Islamists in Pakistan, the US media reported it as a horrific crime -- which was correct because it was. When Israeli Soldiers shot Suraida Saleh to death while she was holding her 9 month old baby in her harms, their was not even a peep out of the US media. It did not matter that she was a Palestinian American that was born in the US. Her family was not invited to speak on Larry King Live on CNN. This one small case points out the extreme double standard by...

Before Israel was Our Ally, We had NO Enemies in the Middle East
We are in this mess because the Bush administration
foreign policy is based on lies. It is based on lies in order
to avoid the politically incorrect truth that our problem
with terrorism is solely the result of our outrageously
unjust policy of blind support of Israel. Neither Bush nor

place on Palestinian life is illustrated by a sentence an
Israeli court gave a Jewish settler. His sentence was a
fine and community service. What was his crime? He had
knocked down a 10-year-old Palestinian boy, put his
booted foot on the child's neck and beaten him to death
with the butt of his military pistol....

Imagine the international outcry if any regime physically prevented Jewish women in labor from reaching hospitals! Nobody would
