On the take?

Yet another political "earthquake" in Israel?

"Channel 10 reported Tuesday that police have evidence that Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's family allegedly received $3 million in bribes from Austrian businessman Martin Schlaff, part of a complicated case involving illegal campaign contributions.

"The report showed a document it said was delivered by police to a court that confiscated material from the home of the Schlaff family in Israel, saying it had evidence of bribery. Police have been investigating the case, stemming from the 1999 election, for more than two years."

Who knows how this may affect the forthcoming election, though this is interesting:

"
Sharon is far ahead in the polls, despite findings that large numbers of voters believe he and his family are corrupt."

Abramoff is looking like one of the stories of the year. Watch all the Republican hacks defend the indefensible, or, simply plead ignornance.

Not much. Be aware of any site that solely aims to bring the 'evils' of Arabs/Palestinian terror. Indeed, any resistance to occupation is regarded as such.
Yawn.

When killing a pregnant mother and her 4 daughters is considered, by arab palestinians, to be legitimate resistance to occupation, then IMRA has its place.

The only perspective needed is that the DELIBERATE murder of a pregnant woman and her 4 daughters is considered legitimate resistance to occupation by the majority of Palestinin arabs.

The only hole dug was the one you were buried in.

What was that muffled sound?

Is that scratching on a box I hear?

There's a huge pile of addamo and it sounds like it's coming from there.

I guess we can put it to bed when you realize the moral implication and difference between the deliberate murder of a pregnant woman and her 4 daughters by Palestinian terrorists, at point blank range, placing a bullet in the head of each to ensure death, for the crime of being Jewish on islamic land.

And the accidental, collateral deaths that occur in a time of war when civillians are being used as shields by members of an armed force hiding among them.

Sometimes, the wrong house gets targeted. The wrong people die, and the people of the US do not shrug and say it is war, they are profoundly sad at the death and carnage.

But it does not appear that the vast majority of Palestinian people are profoundly sad at the death and carnage.


Until then you are addamo.

Orang that is just so much addamo. Israeli forces do not target civilians.

Why the Israeli muslim felt the need to fire his entire magazine into the body of a dead 13 year old is something for his analyst to discover.

Absolutely no equivilance to the deliberate murder, at point blank range, of a pregnant mother and her 4 small daughters.

Please show how this atrocity has been carried out by the Israeli side, and no using addamo from palestinian propaganda of unsubstantiated events from the war of independance.

The closest equivilance is the latest Iraqi suicide bombing in the middle of a funeral.

Civilians are killed in time of war. If you haven't noticed, the palestinians have an uprising going. That is a war. They are fighting from population centers. Attacking them means civilians will die. That's war.

Point blank to deliberately murder a pregant mother and 4 small daughters is worse than the death of a pregnant mother and her four daughters when it is caused by destroying a building where terrorists are shooting and killing people.

That's what happens in war.

There is absolutely no proof that any still births are caused by being at a check point.

Your examples were pitiful and insulting. Better that you had made your statement without reaching for a comparison.

You needed no proof to back up such an obviously true statement, that "brutality against women is not the exclusive domain o(f) Muslim men."
