Palestinians
It's nice to see how well the Palestinian's are handling the Gaza strip now the bad, bad Jews are gone. Looting, gun-running, tearing cables up from the ground. And their "security" forces simply look on, or in some cases, assist in the destruction. The Palestinian's remind me of some people my dad once rented a nice house to. They not only destroyed the house, they took the bathroom sink with them when they left.

I was just thinking about this very subject just seconds before I read your thread (spooky). I read an article just two days ago about the looting that's going on there right now. Aparently, there are these high-tech greenhouses that the Jews built and they left behind. The Prime Minister pleaded with the Palestinian people not to loot the greenhouses becuase they were part of the Palestinian rebuild program. You think that stopped them? Phhht, no. They gutted the place taking plastic sheeting, hoses, and anything that wasn't nailed down. At first, I want to say these people are incapable of running their own country, but then you look at what happened in NO. Desparate people do desparate things. People with nothing seize the opportunity to gain something. Sad.
The bathroom sink story reminded me of something some here at work told me. He spent a couple of years in Spain. He said that when people move out of appartments (more like condos than rented apt's here), they take everything including kitchen cabinets, sinks, appliances, and in some cases, the toilets. How would you like to help move someone there?

Belmont Club puts it in too-harsh focus, I'll just copy his practice:

Why did they do it? Because Hamas morons blew up their own war parade and had to blame it on Jews: Quote:

So the Palestinian's position is the Hamas are idiots but they're our idiots.
