Well then why don't you tell me of an example that shows what I have said is wrong? When has Israel ceded land to Palestinians and had real peace in return? When Israel gives up control of a piece land, the residents are more able to attack it. This has been the rule. There has been peace between governments, but never between peoples (even Egypt, which is the #1 manufacturer of antisemitic propaganda in the world), and that is what matters in the long run.

Now you are splitting hairs. It is relevant. Israel returned territory captured from Lebanon in the north as well from the 1982 war. Now they get rockets from there as well. Hezbollah.

Every time Israel breaths/eat lunch/goes to bed/goes poop they get rockets. Correlation != causation.
When Israel pulled out of Gaza, it got rockets from Gaza.
The only time land for peace has worked for Israel, to my knowledge, is when it returned the Sinai to Egypt. With that regime, which adhered to the accord, collapsed to be supplanted by the Muslim Brotherhood, it is now doubtful in my mind that the arrangement will continue.

Israel got that land after beating back an invasion. It was invaded by multiple nations in a surprise attack. Without the land Israel is militarily indefensible. It will be a sitting duck, ripe for the taking.
Yesterday, Obama said that Palestinian lands should be contiguous. How pray tell, is that possible without making Israel noncontiguous?

Genius cosmologist Kirk Cameron takes down Hawking & Lennon
by unshackled inall hail the genius of kirk cameron...he hath spoken.
if you missed it, stephen hawking did an interview with the guardian the other day in which he said the following:.
"i regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when its components fail.

The corollary is, of course, that Hawkings fancies himself a philosopher or theologian. And yes, he is a prominent physicist, but is also a huge media creation.

Every time Israel cedes land, it gets rockets. Snowbird has a PM.

Its always humorous to see how our majority culture likes to 'disenfranchise' (Jesse Jackson's favorite phrase) minorities in this country. Duncan Hunter, a politician close to my home tried to disway the Naval Board from selecting Mr. Chavez. I personally feel at lot of simpatico for Mr. Chavez and the work he did in California for Farm Worker Rights.
I don't know Duncan, but I will drop a name and tell you that I do know his uncle John. He doesn't strike me as being a racist, and even his wife is hispanic. I don't think his nephew and brother are racist either. There are good reasons to think the ship should receive a different name other than racism.
There are good reasons not to name the ship after Chavez, but rather after Marine Sgt. Rafael Peralta, who is also hispanic, and died fighting for his country and received the Medal of Honor. This is actually who Duncan supports for the vessel's name. After 9/11, Duncan also answered the call, and served until 2007 as a Marine in Iraq and Afghanistan. Instead of politicizing the names of our vessels, we should keep them military in nature.
Here is some information on the family.

Designs you are blowing crap out of your ass about people you don't even know about. It is always an easy thing, to just call people you don't agree with racist, isn't it? It is so simple, and requires very little thinking.
