Qassams Injuring More Gazan Children Than Israelis

The people that have been seriously injured the most by the most recent Qassam barrages have not been Israelis, but Palestinian Arab children!

Those Hamas Scientists

A few days ago I mentioned in my blog that Jimmy Carter emphasized the secular nature of the Hamas leadership he met in Damascus, stressing that they were “scientists, medical doctors, or engineers – none trained in religion”. His point was to make Hamas terrorists seem more like Westerners, to show how much we have [...]

The Gang That Couldn’t Shoot Straight

Palestine Today, the Islamic Jihad mouthpiece in Gaza, publishes a “cartoon” that looks more like a movie poster: Apparently, Giant Abdul is aiming his rifle at the Mediterranean, Mohammed is shooting his RPG at Egypt and Ahmed is firing his submachine gun at the Negev.

“Free Gaza” Sails Again; No One Cares

It looks like Israel’s decision to ignore the “Free Gaza” freaks is paying off.

Their “ton of medical supplies and high-protein baby formula” that it brought is dwarfed by the aid that evil Israel [...]

Dancing With The Stars, Ramallah Version

Swing your partner ‘round and ‘round, And turn your corner upside down. And turn your corner like swingin’ on a gate, And meet your partner for a grand chain eight, And hurry up boys and don’t be late. Chew your tobacco and rub your snuff, And meet your honey and strut your stuff. Right foot [...]

BBC Anti-Zionism On Display

From the BBC website, by their diplomatic and defense editor, Mark Urban: The global honeymoon that accompanied Barack Obama’s election was never going to last forever, but there are some people for whom it already appears to be over – even though the president elect will not take power until 21st January.
