Non-believers and rivals. I wonder if targeting Arab millionaires would shut off funding to the radicals.

I doubt there's a way to cut the oil money back.

When Muhammad and his followers arrived in Medina there were three Jewish tribes. When he died there were none. The animosity has been there since the beginning.

Yep. I find it interesting however, that most lefties react with hostility when one goes back any further than 15 minutes before the end of the '67 war in developing a historical basis for the situation now.

It's because their movement/counter culture/American subculture was born in the 60s.
Personally dude, I'm not getting fooled again.

Hey! It's my movement/counter-culture/subculture as well. Some of us emerged more unscathed than others. I saw Billy Ayers on FOX being interviewed by Legs Kelly the other night. I wanted to reach through the TeeVee and slap him.

Not as long as the majority of Americans think they need a 4x4 SUV with a 5.7 Liter V-8 to tool around town in.

Not really, anymore. Their last foray into Lebanon was considered a big fuck-up in Israel and there's a lot of frustration and war-weariness with what's happening in Gaza. They really don't want to fight anymore, yet they don't want to make any concessions to Hamaz.

By no stretch of the imagination is Jordan an enemy of Israel's. I crossed the border between Israel and Jordan last November. No fuss, no muss.
The Arabs who are relatively friendly with Israel (Egypt and Jordan) are getting tired of what they perceive as heavy-handedness in Gaza though.

So you're telling us that Jordanian Arabs love Israeli Jews like brothers and we're all going to a joint falafel/gefilte fish bbq at the wailing wall later this week and encourage our children to intermarry. I'm so behind the times.
