Journal DAldredge's Journal: P.A. Incitement And Hatred Documented Before U.S. Senators 11
Just a sample of what is in the article.
"The PA Ministries of Education and Sport have turned the most abhorrent murderers of Jews into role models and heroes for Palestinian youth. [For instance, a] tournament for 11-year-old boys was named for Abd Al-Baset Odeh - the terrorist who murdered 30 in the Passover Seder suicide bombing. This past summer, during the period of the US-sponsored Road Map, numerous summer camps were named for suicide bombers... As recently as September this year, PA Chairman Arafat and 13 PA leaders jointly sponsored a soccer tournament honoring arch terrorists... Each of the 24 soccer teams was named for a terrorist or other Shahids [Martyrs], including some of the most infamous murderers like Yichye Ayash, the first Hamas bomb engineer, who initiated the suicide bombings...
"While music videos around the world are used to entertain children, in the PA they are used to indoctrinate children to hatred, violence, and Shahada. Regularly-broadcast PA music videos have actors depicting Israelis carrying out execution-style murders of old men, women and children, or blowing up mothers with their babies. In one music video broadcast continuously in 2003, actors portray a woman being murdered in cold blood in front of her daughter. In another, broadcast tens of times in 2003, the image of a young girl on a swing turns into a flaming inferno, and a football blows up after being kicked by a child. Children are taught through these videos not only to hate and to be violent, but are openly encouraged to aspire to death through Shahada [Martyrdom]. Clips designed to offset a child's natural fear of death, portraying child Shahada as both heroic and tranquil, have appeared on PA TV thousands of times over three years. One clip for children ends with the words: 'Ask for Death - the Life will be Given to you.' In another, a child writes a farewell letter and goes off to die. Children who have achieved death through suicide missions have been turned into PA heroes and role models by the PA leaders.

but nearly 75% of Fox news viewers in the U.S. supported the war on Iraq, and thought that Saddam Hussein had access to Nukes and was ready to use them, as well as being behind the 9/11 attacks. Wrong on both counts!
How many Al-Jazeera viewers do you think had those same beliefs as the Fox news folks?
Just food for thought, nothing more... why not check out foriegn sources of news, more impartial sources

The problem is that there is no clear-cut right or wrong in this matter. Both sides have their points, and both sides have committed atrocities to further their cause. Blowing up people in a streetside cafe is a deed of terrorism surely, but what about demolishing the homes of

Bull fucking shit. I am an american. I have been fed "Anti-terrorist" messages, since sept 12, 2001 (even though terrorism has existed since time immemoriam) yet I see pictures of rumsfeld shaking hands with saddam hussein. I know my tax dollars trained Osama Bin Laden. I know money that came from the west's dependence on oil fueled saddam and Osama's rise to power. I know americans as a whole are too fucking dumb to sacrifice their SUV's for true free

I certainly agree that people should form their opinion on dependable data. The problem is that this data shows that both sides are right, and both sides are wrong. What's more, the discerning reader will soon find that there aren't any clear-cut 'sides', and that this isn't as simple as 'Israel vs. Palestina'. We have fundamentalist religious groups on both 'sides', Hamas, Orthodox Jews, terrorists sponso

As for both sides having points, however, i don't agree. But, you can consider me biased.

I am going to list just a few of Isreali atrocities but only because the author of this article is an Israeli and keeps putting derogatory remarks against palestenians in his signature. I strongly believe that both sides are evil in equal a
