Zion rises early in the morning

"Is it the cries of brown children with flies in their eyes" says British blogger-poet P. Iscariot.

For Tex-Aviv couture house this season brown is the new black.

It's clearly a dirty color, the color of feces, Mohammedans and Hispanics.

The color of Arabian olive oil and Spanish grease.

Brown is also the color of terrorism: just look at the post-mortem pictures of Che Guevara and Zarqawi, and the fetid corpses of Shiite children littering south Lebanon’s valley of death...

Bushmert’s phosphorus bombs will bleach their oily skin and purify their dark souls.

There seems an unaccountable belief that , at some time, the US will in some form call a halt to Israel's onslaught.

There seems an unaccountable belief that , at some time, the Secretary of State C. Rice spinster of this parish will appear on her magic carpet / broomstick and as a messenger of AIPAC / ADL tell them to stop.

Explanations why this would happen would be welcome. It seems from here in Europe that the only thing that will stop the IDF is when they run out of shells, missiles, pilots ....
