So that's Viduka's and Owen's problem. One pill makes you larger And one pill makes you small And the ones that Ashley gives you Don't do anything at all! Go ask Joe His story's ten feet tall. :)

It's like Alice in Wonderland logging on here these days....Chasing rabbits all over the shop...

Pretty much sums it up, and also sums up why it'll never stop. It will stop when Iran/an.other nuke Israel. Yeah that's what I said before is the best chance for "peace" in the Middle-East, nuclear annihilation. Harsh, but sadly true. Although as Iran "aren't" developing nuclear weapons (and neither are Syria) it may be a long wait. (alternatively we may see a nuclear war kick of there within 10 years) Time is speeding up. The numbers gain pace on the words. The balance between the two will break.

Nice thoughts.

Depleted uranium found in Gaza victims Sun, 04 Jan 2009 13:16:21 GMT Medics tell Press TV they have found traces of depleted uranium in some Gazan residents wounded in Israel's ground offensive into the strip. Norwegian medics told Press TV correspondent Akram al-Sattari that some of the victims who have been wounded since Israel began its attacks on the Gaza Strip on December 27 have traces of depleted uranium in their bodies. The report comes after Israeli tanks and troops swept across the border into Gaza on Saturday night, opening a ground operation after eight days of intensive attacks by Israeli air and naval forces on the impoverished region. Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak warned on Sunday that the wide-ranging ground offensive in the Gaza Strip would be "full of surprises." A ground offensive in the densely-populated Gaza is expected to drastically increase the death toll of the civilian population. The latest assaults bring the number of Palestinians killed to over 488 with 2790 others wounded. The UN says that about 25 percent of the casualties were civilian deaths - including at least 34 children. According to Israeli army officials, at least 30 of its soldiers have been wounded since the start of the ground campaign. Amid global condemnation of the ongoing violence in the region, the UN Security Council failed to agree on a united approach to resolve the crisis. " Once again, the world is watching in dismay the dysfunctionality of the Security Council," UN General Assembly chief Miguel d'Escoto said Sunday. According to diplomatic sources, the US blocked a Security Council resolution, with US Deputy Ambassador Alejandro Wolff arguing that an official statement that criticizes both Israel and Hamas would not be helpful. The White House has so far declined to comment on whether an Israeli ground incursion into Gaza is a justified measure.

Who'd have thought we'd end up with such clowns. Happy days.

He hasn't been the same since he got that ponytail.

fuck off you dreary cunt Couldn't have put it better. Baggio I've told you once before, if you want to play the contrarian you need to have something about you. Thick boring arseholes like you can't pull it off. Tbf some kind of charisma is a basic requirement.

Sorry but that's just not true. It was under Ottoman rule then and they didn't even recognised it as a specific area (there was no "Palestine" then - it was divided up into 3 areas between regional sub-powers - which is what would happen if Israel were to be destroyed now), so it was basically squashed under the over all rule of a Superpower, divided between local bigger powers, and wasn't a nice place to live at all. Like I said this "milk and honey" view of "Palestine" is one that has basically been made up in the last 30 years and one which seems to be eagerly swallowed in some parts of the West - despite being utterly and completely false. Not talking about maps and post offices, talking about people living side by side.

UNITED NATIONS – The U.N. Security Council scheduled emergency consultations Saturday night to address the escalation of violence in Gaza, and Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged an immediate halt to Israel's ground operation. The decision to hold consulations came after Israeli tanks and infantry rolled into Gaza in a ground offensive in a widening war against Hamas. Ban said in a statement that he was "deeply concerned over the serious further escalation" of violence in Gaza. The statement said Ban had spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert "and conveyed his extreme concern and disappointment" at the invasion. Ban "is convinced and alarmed that this escalation will inevitably increase the already heavy suffering of the affected civilian populations" and "called for an immediate end to the ground operation," the statement said. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and several Arab foreign ministers are flying to New York over the weekend to urge the Security Council to adopt an Arab draft resolution that would condemn Israel and demand a halt to its bombing campaign in Gaza.

ISRAEL TARGETS MARKET IN GAZA. VERY GRITTY IMAGES BEWARE.

Guti has gone into his usual role as supporting left back.

Basically without Martins we have fuck all up front to keep their def interested.

Light years better than Butt. Owen will score in a min.

Newcastle are trying to sign Rangers duo Barry Ferguson and Madjid Bougherra in a double deal, skysports.com understands. Magpies chief Joe Kinnear is looking to bring a number of new faces into the club during the winter transfer window. The Rangers duo are very high on Kinnear's wanted list and talks began earlier this week. Both midfielder Ferguson and defender Bougherra have Premier League experience with Blackburn and Charlton, respectively, and Kinnear sees the duo as ideal signings. Newcastle are looking to take advantage of Rangers' current financial situation and swoop for the duo.

People who called themselves Palestinians still lived there even if a state called 'Palestine' didn't exist. Basically land was taken away by the west and given solely to the Jewish people to set up their own homeland at the expense of those already living there. The arbitrary manner in which this was done is the cause of many of the problems now taking place in the region. Incidentally, if we are to rely solely on ancient boundaries, Jerusalem was never part of Israel." Alex 2006

"Why won't Israel accept the right of return? why not go back to its original frontiers?? Why not give up E Jerusalem If I was a Palestinian I wouldn't agree to Israel "proposals" either.." ROB W 2006

Sorry Fop are we talking about the same area where a smaller number of Jews lived peacefully with other religions for a century or more? Before the first world war about 80,000 Jews lived more or less peacefully side by side with 500,000 arabs. So I don't believe they can't live together at all.

If Baggy loses he should have to pay to NUSC.

An American president with balls could stop it in 24h. Threaten to stop aid and weapons sales. Stop using the U.S. vote in the U.N. to stop motions against Israel. Use the 1967 lines of demarcation for a final settlement. Make sure Palestine has a water supply it doesn't rely on Isreel for. Short of pretty much going to war with Israel I don't think they could (I thought Israel had pretty much withdrawn to those line now? ). If Hamas wasn't elected there was 1/2 chance of some sort of peace, but as it stands whilst they might take anything the USA offered they'd still want more, in the end Israel would still be attacked and baited because the political parties involved have no reason interest in anything but continuing the fight with Israel (as they don't exist without that fight) and would settle for nothing less than victory. Yes they might take a ceasefire as they have for the last 6 months, but they just use those to move arms and munitions into the relevant areas, it's got nothing to do with stopping people dying. And if Israel was destroyed utterly tomorrow? There'd be a massive civil war in the area that would make Iraq of 2004 and Lebanon of the 80's look like a childrens scuffle. The irony is the withdrawal of monetary aid was raping Hamas politically, IF Israel could have been big enough to take a few months more of rocket attacks without fighting back (there own internal politics have probably helped stop this) Hamas would maybe lost most of the support they had in the areas..... losing their EU and US cash really fucked off the Palestinian populace and certainly wasn't part of the election manifesto. Basically they had to elect a Govt the U.s. and Israel liked....WTF!! Not sure what you mean about civil war?

I don't think the general populace of the U.S. have a clue (apart from bible class) what the heck is being done by the country that gets the largest amount of U.S. aid on the planet. It might get interesting if they ever had any access to a more balanced media.

Pretty much.
