Journal superyooser's Journal: The Evil One 12
It has been days since the Rat's death. The media's coverage of the life and legacy of that fascist, genocidal despot has been incompetent at best and downright pro-terror at worst. Nobody in the mainstream (liberal) media will say what he did! Here is their typical puff piece.
And look at this timeline of "key events" in the Father of Modern Terror's life provided by the Associated Press. What a whitewash! "Oct. 1, 1985: Survives Israeli air raid on PLO headquarters in Tunis, Tunisia." He survives! Oh, the irony of the bias is too rich to handle. What about the PLO's 1972 Munich Olympics massacre of eleven Israeli athletes?
Get a load of this knee-slapper: "Dec. 12, 1988: Accepts Israel's right to exist, renounces terrorism." Puh! Puh! Puh! Please!! For someone to sit here in the year 2004, after witnessing years of the Rat's non-stop massacres and escalating terror, and state with a straight face that the Rat renounced terrorism back in 1988 is incomprehensible! It is a whopping lie. THESE PEOPLE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR REPORTING THE NEWS! They know it's a lie, because they have spent every year since 1988 reporting on the Rat's terrorist attacks. Oh wait, sorry... those were "militant" attacks. A-ha, that's their game. Back to Taboo... more on that later.
The Rat saying that he renounces terrorism is completely different from him actually renouncing terrorism. (Note that the Quran justifies lying to non-Muslims.) His terrorist attacks have killed 1000 Israelis since the early 1990s (and a lot more before that; I don't have the figures handy). The theme of the AP's timeline is: Mean Israelis attack; peace-loving Rat leader fights back and survives. That's why I say the media is either woefully incompetent or evil.
Of course, it is not necessary for me to provide any evidence that the Rat did not renounce terrorism, but I will, since this piece I have is so funny. On March 29, 2002, CNN reporterette Christian Amanpour asked the Rat in a telephone interview if he would renounce terrorism. Here is the audio clip from the Rush Limbaugh Show. Rush wheezes with uncontrollable laughter when automatic gunfire can clearly be heard in the background. The Rat quickly hangs up. But not before sputtering, "You have to be accurately when you are speaking with General Yasser Arafat," not wanting to answer the clear, simple question.
The media keeps talking about how the Rat symbolized the "Palestinian cause." They are very careful not to use any synonyms or other phrases less ambiguous or cryptic. The media are again playing their favorite game called TABOO. The dirty secret (which is not really a secret to anybody paying attention) is that the Palestinian Cause is no different from the Nazi Final Solution: the extermination of the Jews. Yes, the Rat in Ramallah was the perfect symbol of that. That's why I call him the Arab Hitler. Rush gets it.
"Nobody wanted the Palestinians. See, the dirty little secret here is that the Palestinians are the tool by which all the other Middle Eastern countries are using to fight Israel. I mean, it would be easy if the Palestinians really want a state. There's plenty of real estate in Jordan to give them. But nobody wants them and nobody wanted Arafat. They're too valuable on the front lines continuing to fight Israel. They are being used as human sacrifices for other Arab countries..."
So here we go! Fighting back against the Hitler-eulogizing media by wielding overwhelming firepower of the Truth.

"Yet beyond the terrorism, extortion, embezzlement and intimidation lies Arafat's most unfortunate ongoing impact: The inculcation of murderous values in an entire generation of Palestinians, who have been educated - under Arafat's direction - to continue the fight of jihad against Israel, rather than compromise to end the decades-long conflict.
How many generations will it take to undo Arafat's dark legacy?"

Anti-semitism, or rather, anti-messiojudaism (is that a word) is a spiritual condition which even affects some christians (eg replacement heresy).
I wish I knew more jewish people so I could be nice to them and cash in on the promise that God made to abraham to bless those who treat his offspring well.

Yuri, brother, you read my heart! That's why I love Chacham so much. Sadly, most Jews on /. (and pretty much everywhere else) are essentially liberal atheists who don't care much about the Bible or the nation of Israel, much less the Messiah. Yuck. So ... we have to be even more forbearing and patient and try to love them anyway. It breaks my heart whe

Indeed, Mr. Arafat was born in the year of the Snake, and that seems like an otherwise just as good characterization of him from the western perspective as well. It was, after all, the snake the brought about man's fall from Eden - evil, vile, slimey, deceptive, lying, mean, hateful, God forsaken, and all around scum of the earth.

I was laying on a bed in a hotel room, when they broke into the regular programming. It counted down from 10 to 1, and right before the newsman came on I said to my wife, "Bet ya Arafat died." Yep. Then 15 minutes of bull$hit about his "cause".
No mention of the fact he was a political assassin kicked out of several nations, to include Muslim states. Imagine if we immortalized our killers here like Bundy, Tim McV
