Greetings, and a call for help
Greetings, all. Your old friend Laurence Simon. It’s good to be working with Zionaussie Dave again, bringing back fond memories of our collaboration on Arafat Is Full Of Crap.
Okay, Zionaussie Dave’s not here. But he’s here in spirit. And likely through telecommuting now and then to clean up the messes we guest-posters make.
Still, it’s a hard thing being a guest-poster on an established weblog. I mean, the temptation to pull a Michael Totten and use my temporary stage as a platform to bullhorn my own agenda is overwhelming, but somehow, I’ll resist the urge to cover this site with photos of cats.
On the other hand, there is something y’all can help me with…
You see, I’ve been running this thing called Palestinian Terrorist Bingo. It’s an offshoot of Misha’s old “Pop A Pali For Pizza where he’d call for donations to Pizza For IDF when Palestinian terrorists would get smoked by the IDF.
Since I was constantly breaking my already-empty piggy bank to keep up with the demands, I turned it into a kind of game. I’d lay out a Bingo card with assorted terrorist groups and their die-hard supporters, and then when someone from that group would get smoked, I’d mark off the square.
Five in a row makes Bingo, and that’s when folks could head to Pizza For IDF to support the troops.
This not only cuts down on the damage to my credit card, but it makes a sick game of the situation (not that I’m unfamiliar with sick games involving mortality).
It’s my little way of supporting the troops without actually making aliyah and enlisting (I’m a lousy shot with a rifle).
Anyway, I’ve slightly expanded this round’s board to include the Lebanese Front in the Global War On Terrorism being fought by the IDF, but…
I’ve still got one square open. Now, I have a group in mind for the Mystery Square, but I’d rather just be open about it.
It’s got to be a group that is a part of the overall conflict, is aligned with the terrorist side of the Global War On Terrorism more often than not, and has the potential to suffer casualties through its members conducting their day-to-day business assisting the terrorists or meddling with the affairs of the State Of Israel.
Any suggestions? Leave them in the comments.

the U.N., of course.
d’oh! and if I would learn to read, I’d see its alread there.
al-Reuters!
MÈdecins sans FrontiËres (MSF)
They’re actually on the ground today (trying to cross the Litani). Also one of my favourite charities (seriously).
I know someone already said it, but I’ll vote for Reuters and/or the mainstream media as a whole.
Adnan Hajj? That would go well.
yeah, definitely MSM, they’ve been one of the worst impacts on israel and jews around the world ever since they could be.
Really, Christiane Amanpour deserves her own square.
I am thinking al-Beeb would go well for a UK special version
Presbyterian USA (misrepresents Israel to millions of Christians, has met with Hizbullah in past.–makes this Florida Christian sick)
Presbyterian USA
Jund al-Sham
duh, the Islamic Republic of Iran.
IRAN
plain and simple
My vote also goes for Iran.
On a separate matter, Mr. Simon, perhaps you could post just a few photos of your cats. Nothing like a napping cat to gain perspective on this crazy world. Hezbollah may be bringing hell on itself, Northern Israel, and Lebanon in general, but cats will still nap…..
Iran definitely.
but the BBC is very close second.
What about the far left Democrats (Moveon.org, Daily Kos, etc) supporting Ned Lamont and the real nasty (anti-Jewish) things they are saying about Joe Lieberman. I’m trying to be polite in my comments.
Iran for sure. I can see the BBC and even France, but the odds of them getting smoked are really slim, and the idea here is to generate pizzas.
Hey Laurence, whaddya mean you can’t shoot? Can’t you get Frank J or Sarah K (mmm!) to teach you?
Ok here’s one….Mel Gibson! maybe not a global player but a dirt bag none the less. I think a nice mug shot of old Mel on the board would look spiffy
You may want to replace News Reporter with Mainstream Media, as many have suggested. And while Iran is the obvious, and appropriate choice, it would be fun to include France. Especially if they “lead” an international force in the region.
