Screw reuters. Fake pictures, posed pictures, Anti-Israel and Anti- Jewish crap all the time.

President George W. Bush told Israelis on Thursday they were a “chosen people” who can forever count on American support against enemies like Hamas and Iran.

STANDING AND APPLAUDING!

_{now lets put some muscle where our mouth is}

I suspect the Reuters ticker will go up today.

Clinton said that if Israel were ever existentially threatened he would PERSONALLY come fight in the trenches for her.

/somehow this doesn't get mentioned.

He wasn't speaking in front of that farce, the PA parliment, why would he bring up Palestinians.

Piss off Reuters and Palestinians! It's Israel's party, if you don't like it, go and whine with your man the Obama.

Matt Spetalnick and Tabassum Zakaria

The names of the ones who dropped this pantload.

The president’s language in Israel has dismayed Palestinians looking for the U.S. superpower to mediate in their negotiations with Israel.

In a different light I would smile on this statement with approval.

Ain't a Christian in the world who should not be referring to the Jewish Nation as God's Chosen People. Biblical.

The hardest thing to understand about Christian Anti-Semitics (for me anyway).

Bush said that, looking ahead another 60 years in the future, “the Palestinian people will have the homeland they have long dreamed of and deserved.”

/just wanted to single out the comment that will get the most discussion here.

FUCK YOU, REUTERS!

gee, I'd like to give them a kick in the butt along with a smack upside the collective Reuters head. Why should Bush talk about Arab lies at a celebration for Israel? And what about the 500,000 Jews forced out of Arab lands because of the creation of Israel? The Palis could have stayed- they chose to leave and the Arb countries declared war on Israel. Reuters adds faux history to fauxtography

Palestinians looking for the U.S. superpower to mediate in their negotiations with Israel

Who in the heck is this referring to?

How many Palis were seriously thinking of the US as a mediator?

Get a load of this.

Maybe Reuters has a personal grudge?

They want to portray Bush as he goes out of office as some sort of unfortunate religious Christian ( which is always bad) and a Bible nut that thinks the Jews actually have some right to be there.

why would pres. bush make anything more than fleeting references to the palis aspirations for statehood? they have no aspirations for statehood. they have aspirations to annihilate israel, drive the jews into the sea and take over the whole region.

Bush made only fleeting reference to their aspirations for a state of their own in a speech marking Israel's 60th anniversary that was laced with references to God.

The only ones who did the pushing were the Arabs states, who told them to leave until the Jews were pushed into the sea.

'Scuse me, but isn't "people of the Book" how Muslims refer to Christians and Jews -- that is, when they're not denouncing them as infidel scum, Crusaders and Zionist ape-pigs who must be exterminated?

That would be ignoring the fact that the Arab countries that sought to destroy Israel in 1948 didn't turn around and create a Palestinian state on the territories, but rather subsumed them into their own. The West Bank and Gaza were part of Jordan and Egypt respectively. Palestinians could have gotten a state from their brethren, but didn't. And wouldn't.

well, Hussein's can always get a group hug from his new "pastor" and farakhook...

This article is a "slap in the face" of anyone who thinks Reuters might provide factual reportage rather than thinly veiled, anti-Israel opinion pieces.

The team of authors make no mention of Israel's brave battles for survival over the past 60 years. No mention of the wars waged by neighbours on all fronts. No mention of the torrent of Palestinian genocide attacks that Israel has had to endure.

They don't mention how the Zionists took a baron, war-ravaged region and made it a revered model of technological, agricultural and medical expertise.

They don't mention how, despite the constant threat of obliteration over the past 60 years, Israel has human rights and freedoms that its neighbours in the Middle East haven't been able to develop in years of comparative peace and security.

They concentrates on painting prosaic pictures of oppressed Palestinians and a religious freak President, idolised by evil Israeli land grabbers.

Reuters should no longer be regarded as a "news" agency. When it merely offers opinion - especially such obvious, transparently biased opinion, it joins the duller ends of the blogosphere.

The Palis want the US to force Israel to surrender.

I am, though, disappointed in Bush in that he's still saying that he wants a Pali state, not conditional on their giving up terrorism.
He should be saying
"There will be a Palestinan state when the Palestinians accept Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state. Until that unequivocal statement is made, the US will treat the Palestinians as an enemy of an ally, and act accordingly."

WTF?!

We Jews know a thing or two about exile, and what we have here is not an exile. 1948 was not an exile. It was attempt to exterminate every Jew in nascent Israel. And they failed.

The withdrawal of the Jewish communities from Gaza in 2005 was an exile. I can list about 400 different countries and times in history when the Jews were killed and pushed into exile, finally landing in our historical and ancestral homeland.

Of the 7 million Israelis, 1.5 million of them are Arabs, so don't give me that pushed-into-exile crap! Go f yourselves. I'll just sit here on my apartheid ass and think of ways to torture baby palestinian arabs.

Reuters:

AFP

AP

Of the Palestinians, half of whom were pushed into exile to make way for the Jewish state,

-- Reuters.
Actually, when the UN proposed a partition, it was the leadership of the Arab Palestinians as well as the Arab states that rejected the partition proposal. while Israel accepted it. Instead of accepting partition, the Arab states went to war against Israel, seeking to annihilate its people.

"This will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacres and the Crusades." -- Arab League Sec. Gen. Azzam Pasha, May 15, 1948, the day 5 Arab armies invaded the new state of Israel.

What bothers these Reuters bastards so much is that the Arab armies that invaded Israel did not succeed in carrying out their "war of extermination and a momentous massacre".

The Arab Palestinians left mainly because they were called upon by their leaders and by the Arab states to leave, in order that the extermination of the Jews could proceed without having to worry about collateral damage. They were told that they would return after Israel was wiped out and its people slaughtered. It didn't happen that way, and that is what has the Reuters bastards so upset.

As for wanting a state of their own, polls show that 3 out of 4 Palis polled have, as their main objective, ending the existence of the Jewish state. That means that they are not for coexistence with a Jewish state -- they are for eliminating the Jewish state. They want land as a temporary measure, to be used as a base for waging war and terrorism against Israel.

The Reuters bastards are in the tank for the elimination of Israel, just as are 3 out of 4 Palis. Like Abbas, the Reuters bastards see the elimination of Israel as being something that can be gained by the womb, by bringing into Israel millions of hostile Arabs who were not born in Israel and who have never set foot in Israel.
