POPSHamas Children's Show Discusses Severing Hands.... We surely have different cultures and this explains a lot and is foreboding for the future in the area. The last comment is probably applauded by some. :~( Teaching children to kill. How sad is that? Americans can get in trouble for spanking.

POPSCabinet approves Hisbullah Prisoner Swap Well, if the Israeli *prisoners* are dead, perhaps that's how the Hizbullah's *prisoners should return? Does this make sense? I would want the bodies/bones of my relatives returned to me, but why should live people be traded for dead ones? (only in Israel)

POPSFrench Court Confirms: Al-Dura Report Faked I don't think this will make as huge an impression as the initial report. As all know, the damage is already done and nothing will change the mood on the Arab Street. This report was fake and the smoke plumes were fake....how much more??

POPSBush, Obama, and Terror Anything that opposes one's particular opinion is now called a "political attack"?? So how are people to explain their positions that differ with anothers? Pres. Bush' comments are consistent with his entire Administration's position. The real problem is that *the shoe fits* but it's not the one Obama wants to wear right now. And frankly, Pres. Bush could have been referring to Mr. Carter who has also been used as a tool of the enemies of Israel and the US.

POPSObama advisor: Jerusalem must be included in peace talks "...as opposed to the current Israeli administration which is not.." So the Israeli governments that resist and oppose the sovereign lose of Jerusalem *must* make the concession? This alone is enough to confirm that I would never vote for Obama.

POPSHamas disrupts fuel supplies to Gaza Remember a few days ago the UN was railing against Israel for cutting off the supply? All the while there was fuel stored there but commandeered by the PA, I think. Now when Israel sends more in...what happens? These "militiamen" Want the Gazans to be deprived. How else can they fire up their citizens, fellow Arabs, the EU, and the UN (not to mention the US) to pressure Israel to do *still more* for nothing in return? I mean, look at the great photo-op.

POPSPalestinian Militants Accidently Set Off Blast... Well, I can't say I'm sorry. I wonder how many innocent Israelis this incident saved. And notice this occurred "amid new signs that Israel is moving closer to a cease-fire with Hamas...". Maybe Israel was moving that way, but obviously Hamas wasn't.

POPS'My Heart is in Gaza' I wondered how the Arab Christians were managing in Gaza and the West Bank. One thing for sure, there's no *pretend* Christians there.

POPSArab leader denies temple ever existed These people are either lying or are unknowingly ignorant of history. Everyday the rhetoric is revved up. They are craving a war, a blood-bath that they know Israel has no stomach for. They love death. All their leaders promote it and mother's send off their children to embrace it. And the World sits by with barely a word to renounce the stoking of the fires. Does anyone actually believe that a full-blown war in the region will not affect each one of us?

POPSIslamists leave Israel no choice From an Australian source. They say that it's almost like what Hamas wants. Well, yeah. All the Gazans have to do is stop shelling/firing into Israel. Just this one thing and the world community would have the leverage it desires to force Israel to make all the concessions in the world to the Palestinians. But it won't happen; so Israel has to respond and try to protect it's citizens. Will the Palestinian people ever rise up and say "no more" to Hamas? No, because they believe that the destruction of Israel is more important than peace in the region, security for their 'territory', safety for their children, prosperity for their region.

POPSHamas confiscates humanitarian aid trucks...from Jordan And what will Jordan do about this? "...delivered to Palestinians in need in the Gaza Strip." Or used to pay off Hamas officials, as bribes to hire more suicide bombers, or with held to plead the plight of suffering Gazans. Israel...give Gaza back to Egypt!

POPSU.S foes target Latin America They ARE moving in; regardless of what some are trying to say. With Iran's help and the money already in oil-rich Venezuela, the thugs, drug lords and terrorists-for-hire are growing. Sadly, since our government doesn't act against the open threats made against the United States on the world scene, our southern borders will become much like what we see in Israel.

POPSIsrael pumps fuel into Gaza, Terrorists launch rockets.. Hamas and/or the terrorists within Palestinian land *do not* want the people to receive aid. They want them to be deprived and 'victims' because that's the only way they can keep the anti-Israeli hatred red hot and the international community pressuring Israel to commit national suicide.

POPSOlmert Gov't Bans Jewish Prayer From Temple Mount If this is true...this is without a doubt the most asinine *pronouncement* that I have EVER heard. "don't move your lips". If the average Israeli allows this to stand, they truly are doomed! No matter that they have the strongest military in the Middle East, the most stable economy, and the most productive of brain-banks. Somebody...please....give a brain and some common sense to someone in the Israeli government. If this stands...all ya'll just lay down and say to Hamas and Fatah..."take us over.'

POPSAksa Martyrs Brigades calls for Fayad's assassination These people are crazy. Perhaps 'assassination' is a way-of-life in the region. Who will be next? Please, President Bush, do not go there, though your enemies "both foreign and domestic" would be happy for you to take the risk! And the US is suppose to try a broker a deal with all these elements in the Gaza and West Bank?

POPSHamas warns of intifada Well, isn't this just great? The US and Europe plan to fork over millions of dollar to the PA, Gaza and the West Bank still believing that we can *buy* peace. We can promote a "two state solution" till the cows come home but it's purely words and wishful thinking. I guess someone figures that as long as *we* keep talking the inevitable will not happen.

POPSCorner Shot I saw this reported at BreitbartTV but couldn't clip it from there. Please don't think I'm a really weird person but this concept amazed me; especially the under-the-car scene. It's ingenius. You military-types most certainly already knew about this, but I didn't. At first I couldn't stop laughing, then I realized it's deadly!

POPSStupid Intelligence My goodness. Even Alan Dershowitz recognizes an incomplete, flawed, and/or misinterpreted assessment of Iran's nuclear program. Yet, those with the BDS have hopped on the NIE as though it were handed down from God.

POPSHerzl's Grandson Buried in Jerusalem Interesting article. Sad, but a closing of a chapter. Despite the hardship and family history of depression, I view the entire episode of Mr. Theo Herzl's vision as Providential. And despite his family's attempt to protect Mr. Norman, he couldn't be protected from the attempts of ethnic cleansing which included his family. How right that he should ultimately join his Grandfather in the Land of Abraham, Issac and Jacob.

POPSAbbas: Now is the moment of truth for Palestinian statehood I certainly agree that 'now is the time' if they have any genuine wish for a *state* and peace. Now whether Jerusalem would be their capital...that's another matter. Arafat threw away this opportunity. And even now, I doubt that it will ever happen; but if it were to happen...well, how serious are they? I don't believe, for a minute, that Hamas or Hezbollah would allow Abbas to make any real progress. Arabs in Israel/Palestine....what do you really want? Choose.

POPSArafat memorial erupts into gunfire in Gaza It's sad, but no big surprise. My first thought was: How appropriate to memorialize Arafat with terror and fighting. His legacy lives on. As I said before, and people expect Israel to lived along side of them *peacefully*? They're killing each other and it's not about Israel, the US, poverty, the Temple Mount, etc.... This just seems like what they do. I wish there was a way to scoop the innocents out and then just let these factions fight it out.
