Lame Palestinian Excuse of the Day
';Despite the fact that a terrorist group has admitted that the palestinian man killed at Hawara checkpoint on Monday afternoon was intending to blow the soldiers to kingdom come, his parents have a different take.
You see, he wasn’t carrying explosives. It was really a mobile phone.
A really big one.
With a heck of a loud timer.
Sphere: Related ContentThe Palestinian teenager shot dead on Monday at Huwwara checkpoint south of Nablus in the northern West Bank was carrying explosives to attack Israeli soldiers at the checkpoint, a little known group calling themselves the “Struggle and Return Brigades” announced on Tuesday afternoon.
The group, who are affiliated to Fatah’s Al-Aqsa Brigades, said in a statement that 16-year-old Fahmi Ad-Dardouk was in possession of three explosive devices.

The Dardouk family said that Fahmi left home 24 hours before they identified his corpse in Rafedia Hospital. They said he used to work with his father in a bakery in the centre of Nablus. He left home in the morning and never returned.

Dardouk’s family denied he was carrying explosives, saying the Israeli soldiers killed him in cold blood.
Ad-Dardouk’s father said that his son was going to Ramallah to visit some relatives and his mobile phone was hanging on his belt connected to a set of headphones. He said he was in contact with his son to make sure he crossed the checkpoint safely. In his last call with his father, Fahmi told him that he had crossed the checkpoint.

Okay. So it’s the media’s game. Israel never wins. She loses. And, the palestinians get to tell their stories, again and again. If this was a children’s book, Pinocchio’s nose would be wrapped around the equator.
There teenager also wasn’t a teenager. He was 20.
And, you have no idea what kind of training it takes, for soldiers who are drafted to serve; to be able to make life-saving snap decisions. Because? Usually the Shin Bet knows when a check point is going to have to weed out a bomber.
Yes, it’s also worth noticing that when the gun engages, it hits its target. And, it’s not one of those American taught devices; that if the soldiers at the checkpoint have bullets, they’d better aim for the knees. Because the higher ups are known to destroy the careers of promising soldiers (who are all volunteers)! More often than not, the Pentagon chair warmers are a menace.
The other thing? Since this is “old hat” you know that it’s going to come down the pike this way, again. And, again.
As the old media collapses under the burdens of its propaganda.
Abbas, by the way, is a total media fraud. But what can you do?
Here’s the deal. And, this is why I call it a VEXING PROBLEM. One way or the other, the real deal is that the arabs (with all their oil money). ANd, then what they can shake out in “aid” … have designed (for them) a low cost, low maintenance system, specially designed to make Israel “over-reach.”
If Israel went into Damascus in the summer of 2006? The Saud’s would have been thrilled! Not only were America’s army fighting for “them” in Irak; they’d have produced a bonanza.
Meanwhile, there’s no language out there that describes this. Just the Internet. WHich is a NEW FRONTIER.
When Americans first came to North America, they had no idea the size of the land mass. Or what it really meant to “push West.” And, for the most part? The NEW FRONTIER was violent. The “good sheriff” doesn’t show up “in town” until everything was pacified.
And, you thought we ran out of New Frontiers?
Nope. Now the range is a technological one.
As to the BS the media deals out? How is this any better than the multi-culti crap that oozes out of the toilets, formerly known as universities?
On the university campuses; where there are two groups. Those who can do math. And, those who can’t. The non-math majors took over all the parking spots. And, the grading system. And, their bilge is worse than witchcraft.
Of course, that stuff is just fodder on the road.
And, the palestinians’ one advantage? Their crap gets repeated for ALL to see. Just in case these bozos think they’ve created a “new reality.” They’re just stuck in their old one.

You think a TV show could come out of this Liar’s Club?
A long time ago, reading student excuses, a teacher put together a best seller. I kid you not! It contained gems like “the dog ate my homework.”
But I can envision a TV show. First, the story. Then, the arab “response.” And, then the contestants. If I were a contestant, I’d press the buzzer and say “he was carryig a box of condoms.”
Can You Top This? Today’s cell phones are so small the parents of the homocidal maniac are just doing “tore arab talk.” In what universe are arabs even believed? Are they still selling “bargains?”
I hope the woman Corporal, who “called it” … and had 30 seconds to react; becomes famous on Israli TV.
She could moderate the TV show. She’s quick, where it counts.

Being the Internet, Lucianne had someone posting up the Jerusalem Post article. And, then, someone else came on board and posted the following:
“Apparently little Mohammad al Dura got married last year.
His daddy made the mistake of doing what so many other Palestinian men do at weddings: shoot his gun into the air.
Hamas had him arrested.
He was Fatah.
We all saw the boy moving after he was supposedly dead on the video outtakes.
And the childs’ body at the hospital was wearing different clothes!”
I did not know that the story included a living Al-Dura! Did you?
