Far be it from me to doubt the word of the man who despite being ruler of South Africa refuses to believe that HIV causes AIDS, but the "Palestinians" DO have their own independent state and homeland, and have had since the partition of the British Mandate - at partition, the Jews were given the area on one side of the Jordan river and the Arabs were given the other. The Jews called their land Israel and the Arab land was called "TransJordan". The Jews built a prosperous, first-world democracy in the desert, which bloomed and was fruitful. The Arabs did what Arabs everywhere have done and set up a kleptocracy with fabulous wealth for a privileged few and squalor for the vast majority. > South Africa's white rulers, who negotiated themselves out of power between > 1990 and 1994, fought for 30 years to maintain their exclusive hold on > power. > > Police and government agents shot protesters, assassinated civic leaders, > jailed activists and banished high-profile opponents in a bid to break the > uprising that eventually forced them into talks. And what was once a wealthy First-World country has descended into chaos and poverty, now the murder and rapine capital of the world, soon to be depopulated by AIDS. Good job, eh? Rhodesia went down that same path twenty years earlier, and now Zimbabwe is twenty years farther down the road to Hell. -- "If Katherine Harris, Jeb Bush, Jim Baker and the Supreme Court hadn't tampered with the results, Al Gore would be president, George Bush would be back in Austin and John Ashcroft would be home reading Southern Partisan magazine."
