He speaks his opinions and ignores what he doesn't like. I can go on and point to lots of sites with critical facts about him, but why bother. His opinion sits up as something to be ignored. > The only thing that will stop this problem is to nurture the feelings > both sides have on creating peace.

Europe keeps breaking that isolation.
The only way to truly isolate the opponents of peace (who happen to be the ones launching missles as Israel) is to put 6 feet of dirt above them or lock them up. Israel is doing both with Palestinian attackers and the latter with their own (they have better control over their own population) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Purchase from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=35 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:132521 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
