WASHINGTON - Israel will continue building a security fence that cuts into the West Bank despite criticism of the project by President Bush (news - web sites) but will try to minimize disruptions to Palestinians, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon (news - web sites) told Bush Tuesday.

2. a racist fence

This is the latest of the Palestinian complaints. Haven't heard them complaining about Hamas at all.

Why should Sharon be bought? Why should the US think that having given financial support to Israel it can now dictate the terms of its destruction?

3. you know, most people see through the coded language

"Self Defense" is really code for racism and aggression; sometimes it's outright terrorism. Most people who follow the issue understand this. It has been admitted numerous times by Israeli officials. You, on the other hand, seem to actually believe the bogus 'self-defense' claim. Do you really believe it, or are you consciously perpetuating this myth?

7. Self defense

So when the U.S. was attacked at Pearl Harbor and it acted in self defense, that was code for aggression?

8. Some of the US's actions were indeed aggressive...

such as the heavy firebombing of Japanese cities-again and again and again.

4. "Haven't heard them complaining about Hamas at all"

Who do you mean by "them" please? Is that to say all Palestinians support Hamas or their actions?
