White roses

Nur, you must be aware of how significant white roses are for some of us. For many years they have been some of the ture heros of the 20th Century, having been one of the few attempts at resistance to Hitler that arose out of the German People. But you knew that. In any case, http://www.jlrweb.com/whiterose/
is a good web site.

Keep up your good work. You complement Juan Cole for those of us who are hungry for the real news.

I said when Operation Enduring Fucking Freedom started that in the "fog of war" Sharon would deal with the Palestinians, a la Sabra and Chattila.

He has.

He is not going to kill the Palestinians himself , he is going to let them do it to themselves - under the role of disengagement ! Now the lying malevolent bastard wants the sanctity of a UN resolution -whose resolution he and his forbears have resolutely opposed for decades - to bless their smashing of their settlements.

You know what ...

The UN (bullied no doubt by Bolton) smarmed by Tony Blair will roll over on their collective backs and have their tummy tickled.

You can see the headlines now..."Historic Decision" says Tony Blair, Condi will go ape shit to show how her "Drive by Diplomacy" works.

They have made Gaza into the world's biggest prison.

Yes, L'Orient le Jour says the Palestinians in Gaza will be suffocated with work permits forbidden them in Israel and no way to export their produce
