I've always liked Tony. Wish Hawk had stayed in the announcers booth.

you are correct. It was Italian. Sic the hounds on me? We're going out to dinner. Fa ra ra ra ra ra ra ra

You (4E) pointed out that "The "palis" have shown taht (sic) they don't need a reason to be violent! " to justify Israel using violence. I was surprised that you believe that Israel can use Palestinian standards of behavior. That places both Israel and Palestinians on the same moral plane. I am very surprised by that. I would have expected you to state that Israel is the more moral country, more civilized, and should not stoop to the level of the Palestinians (which I believe). I'm not certain if that means you have devalued, in your system, Israel, or are beginning to place a higher moral value on the Palestinians. Either way I think it is dangerous for Israel to use the Palestinian's behavior as justiification of their tactics. BTW, in rating an entire population or race of people, are you using the lowest common denominator i.e. Hamas members to represent all Palestinians? Do the US soldiers who humiliated and committed crimes against Iraqi prisoners represent all US soldiers? If not, then why should Hamas represent all Palestinians? After all we all support our Troops, does that make us evil?

great memory

4E, Wow, you are stating that Israel should follow the example of the Palestinians? Israel and the Palestinians on the same moral and ethical plane. I must say, I never would have thought you would believe that. Apu maybe, but not you. I must say you are surprising me

BTW Nuke, one of the largest populations of homeless in the late 60s and early 70s was VietNam vets who couldn't get a job because employers were afraid to hire them. There are still a lot of homeless vets whose benefits have either been cut or haven't kept up with inflation. The VA hospitals have been overcrowded and have been pushing sick people out the door. Are there some bums out there? Of course. When wuld you like to spend money on them? Before they become homeless? WHen they are homeless? Wait until they kill an old lady for food money? Eventually you'll pay.

There is a difference between assasination and eliminating someone through legal channels. Again, would you favor bombing O'Hare if a terrorist was at your desk? Civilized countries follow international law.

Are they anti-semite jews? I am merely showing that even among Jews; this is not a simple situation. This type of debate goes on in Israel all the time. What is the best path to peace? If Apu, Nuke, and 4E were all in Gaza, they would have plenty of Jews and Palestinians that will agree with them.

Like I said :headshake cut backs in social services for the mentally ill, manufacturing jobs leaving the US, US corporations outsourcing jobs to foreign countries, probably have nothing to do with it. There all lazy bums, especially their kids. Let them knock an old lady over the head, then we'll over three dquares a day and adequate housing.

Here's a nice link to racist jews.

According to most conservatives, the homeless are worthless bums trying to leech off of the working people and should be left to die.

No, but in civilized countries we feed, cloth, and shelter the homeless.

I wish I had you optimism. Israel didn't have weapons of mass destruction 20 years ago. Now with nukes, you never know how far they will go. As 4E has stated on many occasions, what is Israel to do when their kids are being murdered by terrorists? People can only take so much. Watching synagogues and buses get blown up doesn't help a peace process. Either does watching missiles destroy your homes and mosques.

Only if Black Bart is a Palistinian. Hey Nuke, I double dog dare you to rent that movie. Or TBS shows it for 24 hours Christmas Eve and Christmas Day if you can wait. Fra-Gee-Lay, it must be French

Who is their own people? Who did they elect? Where does their government meet?

I am convinced that the majority of Palestinians do not want to die and do not hate Israelis. They displile some Israel policies towards them. They dislike living in fear, as does the population in Israel. Palestinians have the same basic needs as anyone else. A place to live, some food, a happy life. A minority of terrorists have created a situation that makes millions of Palestinians hostages and nomads. When that many people are desperate, extreme thoughts begin to take over. A war to kill 9 million people will wipe out much of Isael also. It will be the US and Israel against the world. I really see this escalating to World War III. I do not see an escaltion that solves the issues without WWIII.

Great flick. Post WWII Chicago and the little kid wants a Red Rider BB Gun for Christmas. Has kind of a Wonder Years feel to it. There are some incredibly funny scenes. The scene where he helps his dad fix a flat is classic.

And that is treating them better than anywhere else. :headshake Gee, I wonder why they turn to idiot terrorists who promise them a place to live. Pull your head out of your ass long enough to see that people get desperate when they have no food, no homes.

did anyone say the IDF did it on purpose Thanks for playing.

This reminds me of the Scott Farkus scene in The Christmas Story with 4E as Scott Farkus's little buddy. Hey Nuke, let 4E feel like a real man for a moment and pat his head.

Doesn't matter where he finds it, you'll dismiss it. Kind of like if someone said the US bombed the Chinese embassy. We wouldn't believe it. Plus it's collateral damage. As long as a Hamas leader had been anywhere near the school, kill, kill, kill. Must drink blood. Kill, Kill, Kill. There are 6 million Palestinians that 4E needs killed.

A young boy went up to his father and asked him, "Dad, what is the difference between potentially and realistically?" The father thought for a moment, then answered, "Go ask your mother if she would sleep with Robert Redford for a million dollars. Then ask your sister if she would sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars, and ask your brother if he`d sleep with Tom Cruise for a million dollars. Come back and tell me what you learn from that." So the boy went to his mother and asked, "Would you sleep with Robert Redford for a million dollars?" The mother replied, "Of course I would! We could really use that money to fix up the house and send you kids to a great college!" The boy then went to his sister and asked, "Would you sleep with Brad Pitt for a million dollars?" The girl replied, "Oh my God! I LOVE Brad Pitt! I would sleep with him in a heartbeat, are you nuts?!?!?" The boy then went to his brother and asked, "Would you sleep with Tom Cruise for a million dollars?" "Of course," the brother replied. "Do you know how much a million could buy?" The boy pondered that for a few days, then went back to his dad. His father asked him, "Did you find out the difference between potentially and realistically?" The boy replied, "Yes, sir. Potentially, we`re sitting on three million dollars, but realistically, we`re living with two sluts and a queer."

A guy walks in the bar totally pissed off from the two hours before. His hair soaked, and his knuckles beet red. He sits at the stool and orders the bartender to give him 3 shots of tequila. "Alright now, sir, before you get an attitude with me, tell me whats the matter." The guy looks at the bartedner and begins his story. "Alright man, I was at the bar down the street and I was talkin' to this fine ass hunny. And she was really feelin' me, ya'know?" The bartender looks confused and says "Yea...well, that doesn't sound so bad." "Yea? Well let me finish. She asked if I wanted to go to her hotel room. Taken aback, I agreed. So I go to her hotel and fool around a bit. And I'm thinking I'm really scoring with this chick. In the midst of doing our "duty" we hear big footsteps comming down the hall. Terrified the girl tells me shes sorry and that she has a boyfriend, but she'd be happy to leave him for me. Agreeing with everything this girl is saying i agree to hide. So I'm running around this room, and the first place I think of hiding is under the bed, but then, no, thats the first place he'd look. Second, I think of hiding in the bathroom, but of course he'd look there. So, like the fool I am, I decide to dangle from the balcony as her angry boyfriend walks in. I hear him ranting and raving about how he knows shes foolin around on him and that he'll hunt me down and kill me. So after a few loud noises the boyfriend mysteriously goes into the bathroom and I hear water running. So, ya'know, I'm thinking this guys gonna take a bath. But then, he returns, and dumps scolding hot water over my head." "Yea," the bartender says, "I'd be pissed about that too." "No, I'm not finished. So when I finally think I've taken enough, still dangling from the window sill, the boyfriend, not nearly has had enough, slams the door over my knuckles five times till i scream..." "Damn, the bartender says. "So thats why your pissed huh?" "No, I'm not done." "Well will you please just get to it?" "Yea, I look down and I'm only two feet off the ground."

So 4E, what would you do with the 9 million Palestinians? They all can just live anywhere in Isael correct?
