		<description>Can someone explain to me where this mythical &#039;Palestine&#039; is? No, really. My understanding is that this name was invented by foreign invaders (and ironically, it also means &#039;invasion&#039;), and ceased to exist in May 1948.</description>

		<description>Hi..
Really I must be surprised due to your point of view,
you are completely do as Mr. Bush said after september 11th attacks that &quot;Those who are not with us are against us&quot;. Why do not you let the newspaper to unlearn all the points of views, as the israeli speech published, let the palestinian speech of its different parties be published.

Here, I invite you really to look closely at Hamas`s ideas, put in your minds that Hamas`s militant wing &quot;Al-Qassam&quot; is hard enough to make israeli people to suffer at least in Sederot city.</description>

		<description>McCain is the Aaron Burr of modern American politics.

I believe we will be better able to survive the long term effects of Obama than the long term effects of McCain.

Not going to be pleasant but perhaps that is what it is going to take to save America.  But it is likely that Israel is going to be a casuality in this painful process.

But when I pull the level for Obama I am going to remember this one thing &quot;without Carter we wouldn&#039;t have had Reagan&quot;.</description>

		<description>Mind you I don&#039;t like it that Hitler became leader of Germany, but you need to consider the other possible results. There were few options and they were all going to disasterous.  There was no way the result was going to be any thing else than bad.

And we did defeat Hitler. Could we have defeated Germany if the Soviet Union maintained its alliance with Germany (had Hitler not stabbed them in the back)?

I don&#039;t think we could have.

So that is where we are today. There is no way that a good outcome can come out of this year&#039;s US election and perhaps in the end again, electing Hitler (Obama) is the best when you look at it in the long run.</description>

		<description>Here is an uncomfortable thing to consider.

Perhaps Hitler&#039;s election win was the best thing to have happened to freedom, given the only other possible results.

After all had Hitler&#039;s political enemies won, they would have been better able to maintain an alliance with Stalin. Actually such an alliance was part of the ideology of Hitler&#039;s political opposition. A Soviet Union/Germany alliance (A strong alliance where one side doesn&#039;t stab the other side in the back) would be able to totally destroy anyone coming against it at the time, such as England or even the United States. Who can say what the world would look like today? It could be a much worse place.

It is hard when the only possible outcomes one has are bad ones. But that is what the American voting electorate is facing today.</description>

		<description>If you think Carter is bad, you haven&#039;t seen anything yet.  Obama is going to be much worse as a President and former President.

Actually what he does as former President might not mean too much as what Obama will do as President will perhaps totally destroy Israel.

And while I don&#039;t blame Carter and Obama totally on the Jews, it is the truth that while of course not all Lefists are Jews,  prominent leaders on the American Left are indeed Jews. So there is a certain amount of &quot;chickens coming home to roost&quot; aspect to this as a result of the great influence (too great some may say) that Jews have had over American politics.

Long term though, Obama might be the best possible outcome for this years&#039; election.  A McCain victory means a prolonging of the current situation which leads to America&#039;s destruction as well. Perhaps an Obama win and the hardship such a win will bring will be the wake-up call that Americans will need to snap them into reality and start electing good solid Americans instead of sleazebags like Obama and McCain.

After all because of Carter we had Reagan. Perhaps in the end, after no doubt lots of pain, Obama will be the best for America as a result of what comes after him.

But again, for you Israelis, Obama might be all she wrote.  But be assured, your destruction will be one of the things that leads America onto the right path.</description>

		<description>&quot;We believe Mr. Zahar’s words are worth publishing because they provide some clarity about the group he helps to lead, a group that Mr. Carter contends is worthy of being included in the Middle East peace process….&quot;

Or, how about this from 1938?

&quot;We believe Mr. Hitler’s words are worth publishing because they provide some clarity about the group he leads in Germany, a group that Mr. Chamberlain contends is worthy of being included in the European peace process….&quot;

If they wanted to clarify where Hamas stands then why can&#039;t they write it themselves in their own editorial instead of giving them a platform which they&#039;ll use to diseminate their views?</description>

		<description>I somehow doubt that Al-Zahar writes this stuff himself. Would be curious to find out who his &quot;mercenaries of the pen&quot; are.</description>

		<description>The post Editorial might not have covered every point made in the op-ed, but it nailed some very central issues; the fact that Hamas is a terrorist organization killing civilians, that they are intransigent in their demands, that Carter&#039;s statements were clearly incorrect according to the statements of Zahar, and that Carter&#039;s actions were wrong.
That is pretty good stuff for a paper like the Post.  I give them credit where credit is due.

		<description>Sometimes, when a newspaper publishes a provacative letter to the editor or an op-ed by the likes of the wart-faced one, I think they do it to stir controversy and sell newspapers.</description>
