Robert Fisk: Bush legitimizes terror
http://www.dawn.com/2004/04/17/op.htm

So President George Bush tears up the Israeli-Palestinian Peace Plan and that's okay. Israeli settlements for Jews and Jews only on the West Bank. That's okay. Taking land from Palestinians who have owned that land for generations, that's okay. UN Security Council Resolution 242 says that land cannot be acquired by war. Forget it. That's okay.

Does President George Bush actually work for Al Qaeda? What does this mean? That George Bush cares more about his re-election than he does about the Middle East? Or that George Bush is more frightened of the Israeli lobby than he is of his own electorate. Fear not, it is the latter.

1. Terror was legitimized when the PLO got a UN delegate
And embassies in 94 nations. That's a lot of legitimacy for murderers who got their people tossed out of one country and massacred in another.

It gave the Palestinians no realistic choice. Ruled by terrorists, any one who advocated negotiation was killed, not by Israelis or Lebanese, but by their own.

Fisk shows his true colors and it's good to know. But why did you post this revisionist garbage?

2. Sharon and Bush open the Bible together
Sharon shows Bush the part about Moses and the promised land. Bush says, "That's good enough for me."

3. Did Bush go over Revelation with Sharon?
You know, the part that said ALL Jews were returning to Israel and 1/3 of them would be killed at Armageddon????

4. What does Bush care?
He'll have been raptured by then and sitting on a cloud.
