Friday sermon on PA TV
"Our prisoners are subjected to most criminal kinds of physical torture. They are tied with chains and trussed up with iron chains, and hung by their feet from the ceiling, like animals are hung after slaughter for days. Many of them lose consciousness. Our prisoners are exposed to beating, electricity and fire tortures.
"The prisoners are exposed to conversion to Christianity, to abandoning religion, [as it was] in the distant past and recently. Yes, our prisoners are forced to curse Muhammad; our prisoners are forced to curse the religion of Allah, our prisoners are forced to curse the essence of divinity.
"Haven't you heard of our prisoners [of war] in Palestine, have you not heard of our prisoners in Iraq, in Afghanistan, and all over the world, who are exploited and imprisoned, and are offered conversion to Christianity? ...
"What Caesar did [reference to a Muslim tale of a Roman emperor torturing a Muslim to impel him to apostatize —ed.] is not as bad as five American soldiers who meet to rape one of our daughters, a girl who has the honor of a Muslim woman, in order to desecrate her honor at the Abu-Gharib prison." —Sheikh Ibrahim Mudayris, PA TV, April 15, 2005
Article from official PA daily newspaper
"Seventeen years (since the assassination of the fighter Abu Jihad) that the murderous millstones of America have been turning, grinding the bones of our children and devouring their eyes. Not Israel! There is no such thing called Israel! It is America repeating upon us, the Arabs, the tragedy of the Indians [sic] from the dawn of her [American] history that began with this first crime of genocide." —Said "Abu Ajima," Al Hayat Al Jadida, April 16, 2005
These people are truly ready to have their own sovereign state. Besides, 22 Arab countries just isn't quite enough.
Absurd Palestinian Arab/Muslim Conspiracy Watch
Arafat 2 has enjoyed mass concessions from Israel, lots of cash money from a Western free lunch machine hemorrhaging unappreciated sympathy, and a complete lack of accountability for failing to meet the simple conditions which he agreed to abide by.
It should come as no surprise to anyone then—except, perhaps, to Western leftists who have all but made a lifelong career out of enabling and justifying Arab/Islamic hatred of America and Israel—when Abu Mazen's terrorist constituency continues to kill, or attempt to kill, Israelis, and when his state-run media and state-paid imams continue to incite hatred of the hand that foolishly feeds them.

These people are truly ready to have their own sovereign state. Besides, 22 Arab countries just isn't quite enough.
I guess maybe we need to throw some more money at them.
