 Read below Mr. Kofi Annan? Rev. Jesse Jackson, the entire (decent) Muslim Community, the Israeli radical left? I can't hear a word about Kenya or about a missile attack on Arkia or about Bet She'an. The world doesn't dare want to hear another peep from you. You are hypocritical, your heart only bleeds for an Arab not a Jew! I for one am sick and tired of people telling me how "decent" the Muslim world really is! Oh yeah? So where is their voice of condemnation of those barbaric acts? I,for one, would like to believe the Muslim world is decent.. let me hear your voice of sorrow about all the killings and attempted killings that happened in Kenya and in Israel! As for the Israelis who complained when we went into Arafat's headquarters... where are your tears today???? Damn.. you make me so angry! Agence France-Presse WASHINGTON - "We have solid evidence," lawyer Ron Motley told reporters. Saudi Arabia also openly supports the families of Palestinian suicide bombers who target Israeli civilians, said Motley, who played a pivotal role in lawsuits brought against the tobacco industry. "They boast of 150 million dollars they paid to so-called 'martyrs' who strap bombs on their bodies, get on buses, enter universities and kill innocent Israeli citizens," said the lawyer, who is overseeing the lawsuit that seeks billions of dollars in damages. "That kingdom sponsors this terrorism; it sponsors Hamas, it pays the victims, the so-called martyrs, for killing woman and children," he said. "This is an insidious group of people." October 22, 2002 A Saudiless Arabia Saddam Hussein Public Enemy Number One? (excerpt) The Saudis, the primary financial backers of Al Qaeda, the Taliban, and likeminded terrorist groups, And now the Saudis have another protector in the White House, the presidential dauphin, George W. Even though evidence continues to pile up about Saudi funding of madrassas, mosques, charities, and guest houses linked to Al Qaeda through a diffuse network of banks, companies, hawalahs, and front operations, the Bush II administration refuses to support an independent commission to look into the sordid nature of past and current funding of Al Qaeda and its allies. Let the Saudis tell the Israelis they are innocent of involvement with terrorists. When Israeli troops stormed into the West Bank in Operation Protective Shield they confiscated bank and other records that now fill an entire airplane hangar near Tel Aviv. These banking records reveal that the Saudis have directly contributed money to groups like Hamas and Islamic Jihad for the purpose of strapping bombs on to young people and have them blow themselves up on busses, restaurants, and marketplaces throughout Israel. Another group that enjoyed the largesse of the Saudis was an Al Qaeda cell found to be operating in the West Bank. What is more galling is the fact that some of the Saudi checks to the terrorists were routed through the Saudi American Bank and one of its corporate parents, Citigroup. Incidentally, Saudi American Bank is the bank of choice for Bush's Texas ranch guest, Saudi Prince Bandar. But as with Enron cover up, it is doubtful that the Bush administration will conduct any meaningful investigation of the role of U.S. banks in financing criminal activity. A few weeks ago, a suicide bomber tried to enter a cafe next to the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv. What made this personal for me is the fact that I had been sitting in that very cafe a few days before the attempted bombing. Unless one actually experiences the fear that Saudi Arabia promotes and funds in places like Israel, it is difficult to grasp the nature of Saudi Arabia's duplicity. And Saudi Arabia continues to show incredible insensitivity. It has just named Prince Turki Al-Faisal bin Abd Al-Aziz Al Saud, the former head of Saudi intelligence and the man who not only helped spawn Al Qaeda and the Taliban but who met with Bin Laden in Afghanistan as late as 1998, as its new ambassador to the Court of St. James. |

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Perhaps Sharon could request Kofi to send a "fact finding" mission to investigate. Then Osama or whoever was responsible could refuse to cooperate unless they were given immunity from prosecution or perhaps they could simply refuse to cooperate full stop!!!
Also, almost beyond belief, Secret documents have recently surfaced that show the U.S. Government has
been giving in excess of 4$ Billion (!) a year to the Israeli government. And (hard to believe!!!) is now poised to give an EXTRA 10 $ billion
Secret documents?
The US funding, directly, of the Israeli state has been a matter of public record for a considerable time. And it has, at least since the Gulf War, been of a similar, if not larger amount than you quoted. So public, in fact, that news programs have been able to quote amounts in the billions on a regular basis.
Secret my arse. Recently eleased? Bollox.
Fred, the difference is, when the U.S gives money to Israel, Israel doesn't use that money to deliberately kill woman and children. While Saudi Arabia gives millions to the Palestinian homicide bomber families, that massacre Israeli children eating icecream.
you are an idiot.
Yes they do. Demonstrably so. And demonstrably, over a sustained period of time, characterised by escalation. Israel has done so, at this count, several hundred times over the past ten years, at a bare minimum. Directly or by proxy.
The fact that you can bring yourself to publish such a blatant, and easily refuted, falsehood indicates that we should track your ip address, and burn your isp to the ground to prevent you babbling nonsense on any sort of a public forum.
You, personally, make me despair of the human condition, reminding me, as you do, of that Burroughsian opinion
"the history of humanity is a history of idiocy, wherein a few comparative morons stand out as relative geniuses."
On the spectrum of imbecility, you are the nadir, against which we shall measure our failure to civilise. Think of yourself as the absolute zero of the IQ scale.
"Israel doesn't use that money to deliberately kill woman and children."
This is BEFORE any Palestinian suicide bombing in infitada II!
