"We can't simply continue to say we want a two-state solution. We've got to start to move toward one, and this international meeting is also going to be doing exactly that... [not] just to declare that we all want to see a two-state solution."

"Dedicated to the Arab and Muslim community in Sweden"--but the same people who are threatening Lars Viks for a cartoon, and the same cretins who murdered Van Gogh's grandson. Animals.

I can't remember the name of a Texas woman who was executed for a brutal murder. She confessed that when she was stabbing her victim repeatedly, she had an orgasm.

If you read the words of the Hamasshole savages, it isn't hard to imagine them blowing their load when they see those images. They salivate at the thought of butchering their victims in the most gruesome manner possible.

It's what the intellectual slobs of the Left refuse to see: it's not about the "struggle" to "liberate" "Palestine"; it's about satisfying ghoulish blood lust.

Just another media piece to stir the restive natives in Gaza. I'm actually optimistic that in 10 years they'll grow tired of their own culture of death. If not, they'll only stoop lower and become cannibals.

I will not let this shock me.

I will not let this-or any other IslamoJihadiNazi intimidate me.

I will continue to live-make Jewish children and live Jewish.

NO JIHADI PROPAGANDA, no matter how grewsome, will ever ruin my life, my day or my children.

Everyone do something nice for someone you love, or a random act of kindness for a stranger. Keep fighting. We will endure and thrive.

I don;t blame Hamas and the palestinians at this point, any more than I blame a schizophrenic or manic sufferer.

They have been brainwashed and inculcated to the point that their values and thought process are no longer normal.

I am pretty sure that if one were to do some sort of functional brain imaging, their responses to violence and depradation would be entirely different to those of westerners.

I believe even the German population of WW2 was not inculcated to the same degree, the Nazis going to great lenghts to hide theri atrocities from the population at large, and not splashing images about in their media.

The 'Palestinians' at this point are irretrievably lost. Weaposnized. Human pit-bulls.

re: #40 Maine's Michael

I agree with you completely. I believe that Palestinian/death cult Islamic society is unreedeemable.

If anyone would like to send a note of thanks, or link, or maybe an example of Palestinian poetry, to the Carter Foundation you can do it through the carterweb email address at Emory University.

What would YOU do?

Never forget that Hamas is not separate from "Palestinians" in general - it is comprised of "Palestinians" and supported by "Palestinians".

Walt and Meersheimer don;t know WTF they're talking about. This is the USA's real Israel policy:

'We need you to bleed AND to be seen to bleed. We will help you survive, but we will shrink you down, over time and in return for arab acquiescence to our goals elsewhere in the mid east, to the smallest size sustainable by military technology and diplomatic fantasy. When those technologies improve, we will shrink you down further. If you don't agree, you can make your own military spare parts for American equipment, and use your own veto to negate binding resolutions at the Security Council."

Ode to Martyrdom

Martyrdom, O martyrdom, The sound of churning skies and faint whistling of my name in the world to come.  A flash and my eyes turn heavenward. I taste smoke and eternity sears my lips. No more the bloom of youth do I send.  No more to crush tender expectation into wine of sacrifice. In trepidation and foul stench I am dispatched. Flames and gloves of scarlet my stinging burial shroud. 

All the pieces that I am, separating what is, from what was in one expansive gesture. No glory and untouched houris to penetrate? No cup of wine or boys with eyes like pearls to quench my thirst? Where is the honor for my bitter acrimony and attempts to obliterate, G-d's remnant?

So I, to heaven question: Who was my god, then? What is The Name, the One who fashions my torment? I heave ash and disappointment. My eyes weep from their sockets. O to grasp a fist of my holy land, to occupy it now and not this grave.

After that dreck "[p]roduced by AL-Aqsa TV, 2007," time to repost my rebuttal, written in 2003:

. . . for Yasser and Abu and Hamas, too.

Israel uses soldiers to counter-attack,
Civilians who would try to break her back,
While we dither and slither away from this fact:
Terrorists kill – without looking back.

The answer, it seems, is not to be found,
Amongst the ruins of people, strewn on the ground.
Reasons for murder, supercilious, abound,
But will not stop while Insanity’s around.

Though it takes two to tango, only one’ll do,
When it comes to killing any ol’ Jew.
Civilization has Rule of Law as its glue –
Except for Yasser and Abu and Hamas, too.

Terror, like silence, adores a vacuum,
Yet for logic and truth, it has no room.
The future, bleakly on the landscape, will loom:
We do nothing at peril of our own doom.

re: #64 ChristianRepublic

The 'diseased' have to be removed from any situation where they can casue damage to healthy.

Medicall, one would quarantine or restrain an otherwise uncontrollable and dangerous psychopath. This is done all the time with the criminally insane.

One does not give them a state.

My suggestion would be to transfer them back to the the people that created and weaponized them, and let them cure or otherwise dilute or deal with them in the manner they see fit. While in theory that would include the Soviet union as well as the arab world, the soviet union no longer exists. Egypt, Syria and Saudi Arabia still do.

Those jooos, denying the 'palis' exercise of their inalienable right to whack jooos. Must condemn the jooos in the UN GA, UN HRC, HRW.

They obviously have earned a state. Time to force them to generate their own power, water, and everything else a state needs to do. Cut them off. Today. No more. Screw the "innocent victims" in Gaza. No one bothers to think of the innocent jewish victims of inbound missles from Gazastan.

You don't like collective punishment? Don't vote for f*cking terrorists. You elected them Gaza, you deal with them.

It may be a war crime to perform population transfer, but this is the only mechanism that looks like it has any hope of creating peace. Absorb the transfered populations into their host countries.

'Palis' polity is not ready. They had 60+ years. The 'palis' experiment has failed miserably. It is time to take away their suffering by finally, permanently resettling them in arab lands.

re: #69 ChristianRepublic

I simply see them as irredeemable. They are not reformable. They have a mental illness they will take to their graves.

Their leadership is responsible for letting things get to this point.

Psychotics -- those suffering from a true debilitating, mental illness are delusional...with full-blown hallucinations (hearing voices, seeing things, speaking to people who are not present, and so on). (If anyone has ever witnessed a psychotic -- when delusional -- well, you'll realize that the psychotic person is not "with it" -- that is they are in another world -- completely "out of it." Thus, nearly every civilized nation in the world does not and cannot hold true psychotics (the delusional paranoid schizophrenic, for example) responsible for one's actions. Psychotics who "act out" in a criminal fashion are thus put into mental hospitals.

A psychopath, on the other hand, does NOT suffer from delusions. They are perfectly rational and functioning. It's a "personality disorder" -- not a psychotic illness. So a psychopath fells nothing for his victims, has no conscience, can easily commit the most heinous acts and be unconcerned. (There are other manifestations of psychopathy -- 22 "traits" -- and it's on a scale, thus there are degrees of psychopathy.) Criminal psychopaths are routinely put into prisons (there's no treatment, and no "cure")...but they cannot escape punishment on the grounds of "insanity." They typically are fully aware that there acts are "evil" -- it's just that they don't care.

One could also suggest that the current violent, terroristic Islamism is akin to a "disease" in that it seems to be spreading -- it's the noxious ideas that act almost like a contagion.

Wow. That makes gansta rap seem pretty benign.

re: #72 J.S.

I'm not a psychiatrist, but I would bet the 'palestinians' would make for an interesting real world experiment testing the hypothesis that culture/upbringing creates psychopathic personality disorder. Perhaps this is 'known' already, though.

Relatedly, would you have considered the Nazis psychopaths?

It would seem to me that Nazi Germany was qualitatively different from the palestinians. German society was not innately psychopathic, but Nazi Germany exploited its fraction of psychopaths to carry out is plans, and everyone else more or less closed an eye or went along.

Palestinian society has its bloodlust bred in the bone, at this point, and it is endemic throughtall levels, all strata, all ages of its 'society'.

Truly sick.

Thank you, Dhimmi Carter. Encourage them some more, please.

Correction:

testing the hypothesis that culture/upbringing can create psychopathic personality disorder.

re: #51 undhimmicratic

Lovely. Thank you. I'm glad you're on our team.

By equating the current death cult fad with a disease, it takes away the human factor that developed, encourages and disseminates the culture. There are certain delusional elements that have been fed to the Palestinians so many times that they actually believe the whoppers, but this cannot be succesful without human beings supporting the whole infrastructure.

re: #75 Maine's Michael

German society was not innately psychopathic, but Nazi Germany exploited its fraction of psychopaths to carry out is plans, and everyone else more or less closed an eye or went along.

MM-but there were certain factors that were quite unique to Germany-for example the underlying culture of antisemitism in the society, the German particular adulation for order, following orders and the aspirations of most German workers to be professional bureaucrats and functionaries. That was their ideal lifestyle.

However, nobody ever expected at the end of WWII that the Germans would ever be democratic-the same can be said of Imperial Japan. However, what is different now is that America is not taking the moral and transparent stand against the scourge of Islamic terror and caliphate dreams. Without that-without the will-we will be sunk.

re: #80 Maine's Michael

{MM}

I question the tempo.

re: #81 WriterMom

The Germans and Japanese were utterly defeated. Ground into the dirt, civilians included, because it was understood that it is ultimately the civilian population had to be convinced and reformed of its delusions, and only by threatening the families of the fighting men could they get total surrender.

Islam by its nature is far more intrisic to the psychological makeup of its adherents that were either Nazism and even military Shintoism, I think.

And yet we pussyfoot around muslims. With this strategy, perhaps we can contain, but we cannot win.

Furthermore, the Saudis won't allow it.

re: #51 undhimmicratic

Amen, brother (or sister).

re: #75 Maine's Michael

There are rigorous debates in the psychiatric community (I'm not a psychiatrist either), about the role of genetics vs socialization -- and how various factors interplay. (There was a book recently published in 2005 called "The Handbook of Psychopathy" which put together some of the latest research findings from a range of experts in the field.) Just about every aspect of psychopathy is subject to debate (including the definitions, the models, the causations, the diagnosis, the etiology, the prognosis, etc.)

I suspect that the two (nazis vs Islamists) are qualitatively different. Particularly, given the fact that the Islamists are religiously based. The nazis prided themselves on being "scientists" (today we'd call it pseudo science), and on being cold and calculating. It's a different kind of diabolicalness. (?) (I believe the prime exemplar of the German nazi psychopath was, pretty clearly, Mengele).

It's as if there are different sub-species of psychopathy. And the nazi and Islamist versions differ...yet simultaneously also share certain features. (I was reading recently about the need to conduct further research into antisemitism...) (Also, btw, the current climate at most universities, I don't think it would be possible to even broach the topic of say, Palestinians and psychopathy...let alone suggest research. (it's politically unthinkable.) (Another promising area, by the way, is brain research -- neurotransmitters, etc.)

Let them rot behind their wall, sinking lower and lower into savagery until they lose all contact with their human origins, and run about on all fours slavering at the mouth, having lost the power of speech, and scavenging in their own dung to keep alive. It shouldn't take long at the rate they are going.

re: #91 buzzsawmonkey

But Arab society has had the opportunity to do what the German Nazis did not; raise up three generations from birth in an ideology of supremacy, hatred and murder.

Good point, buzz. And-of course, I would add that the historical period during which the death-cult Islamic pathology against Jews has flustered is also an important point. The world gave the Jews a very brief breather after the Shoah-and now, though the earth under European feet is soaked with the blood of our ancestors, and the ghosts greet us at every European city, the world can heave a sigh of relief-content that the Jews have their new status as the "real" Nazis, and devote all their energy to the spiritual descendants of the Nazis without even batting an eyelash.

That's all they can come up with? Their contribution to the world is that they can chew up humans and their technological triumph is finally finally figuring out a weak spot on the Merkava. No contribution to eliminating a disease or coming up with alternate energy or water cleaning approaches... nothing ...just death, mutilation and attempted destruction of the technological progress of others. Pathetic.

re: #107 Maine's Michael

The article was "Brain Potentials Implicate Temporal Lobe Abnormalities in Criminal Psychopaths" from the Journal of Abnormal Psychology; Aug2006, Vol. 115 Issue 3, p443-453.

"Abstract:Psychopathy is associated with abnormalities in attention and orienting. However, few studies have examined the neural systems underlying these processes. To address this issue, the authors recorded event-related potentials (ERPs) while 80 incarcerated men, ...[snip] The data are interpreted as supporting the hypothesis that psychopathy may be related to dysfunction of the paralimbic system—a system that includes parts of the temporal and frontal lobes."

Note the Wiki article on the Insular Cortex, also references William James (who also wrote on the nature of religious experience -- taxonomies of emotions related to religious experience / insight -- "embodied cognition" -- conversely, psychopaths are reported to have impaired emotions or emotional impairment..Also see "Abraham Heschel interprets William James," by Edward K. Kaplan).

re: #39 WriterMom

This should be on a poster.

The word "savages" says it all.

The discussion of Palestinian psychopathology is interesting; thanks to everyone for sharing those points.

It is now clear that certain occupations shape neural pathways in the brain. The brain rewires itself, hypertrophying pathways that are most commonly used, and these changes are now mapable in some cases with functional brain imaging.

Perhaps someone at Hebrew University can apply for a United Nations / World Health Organization grant to study the neural pathway deformities engendered by Islamism, particularly 'palestinian' Islamism.

I'm sure it would have an excellent chance of getting funded. Certainly a better chance than the earth has of getting struck by solid gold asteroid on New Year's Day.
