it’s shaming for a man to be aroused in such a situation. That shame is the torture. Not the arousal itself. If you take a beating you can prove yourself to be honorable, in control of the pain. It shows strength of spirit. If you become aroused (and if that arousal leads to a confession) it can be seen as a form of weakness by which the prisoner is shamed. What people perceive as torture, including what they find shaming or humiliating, is culturally conditioned. It might not work to torture you by bringing in a half-naked woman. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t traumatic for someone else. Some people have better coping mechanisms for physical pain, than for psychological damage.

How much useless information did the media release today?

Oh, yeah. Abbas again threatens to quit. If “pieces” of Israel isn’t in his hands by the end of this year.

Bush is still an idiot.

And, what’s really worth discussing? This “VEXING” problem. Because the arabs have successfully exploited it, so far. And, that’s to ANNOY the Israelis. Hoping to provoke them “to go to war.” Since wars deplete a country’s economy. And, worse. Toss tourism out the perverbial window.

As to jails, let me tell ya, Israel has nothing on the USA! We house “special groups” … and this feeds the lawyers. And, law enforcement, too. Like schools, you’ve got to look at the economic aspect of it all.

While the media is no more selling their messages, than Bush was able to! You think the arabs in Saudi Arabia felt beholden to Bush’s requests? I kid you not. Bush flopped.

And, the democraps, here, think Obama wins the presidential election.

Such strange mishigas happens when politicians need a critical amount of votes to win in a race, where they could also lose.

Sure. Sometimes, I can see why people would like advance notice. Tea leaves, and searching astrologists, come up empty-handed.

Up ahead? You think we’ll be talking about Morris Talansky, and his attempt to bring down Olmert? Is he the Israeli version of Monica Lewinsky? Is Mazuz just Ken Starr, played as farce?
