#5 Kewl! At first, I was tempted to say "flesh-eating bacterias", but I recon they must have some useful purpose in the ecosphere.

#6 Dang, I make a joke, and my nick is changed to Jort Glineth2531 without reason. How I am to ever develop a sense of humor that way?

#8 First...
Kaare Eltervaag, who heads the Foreign Ministry's division for Middle Eastern affairs, told Adwan that Hamas "has not lived up to our expectations," according to a statement on the government Web site.
"We realize that it takes time to change attitudes," the statement said. "But the Palestinian government must take clear steps in the right direction."
Then...
On Friday, Norway announced a 50% increase in its funding for U.N. Palestinian relief efforts, to $24.5 million, to help ease an economic crisis in the West Bank and Gaza after the Hamas-led government took office.
Yeah, that should speed up that "living up to our expectations" thing. You bring the Vaseline next time, Kaare.

#9 "Give us a country, a state, and then ask us to recognize Israel,"

That's an oxymoron since the state hamas is talking about IS Israel.

#10 "Give us a country, a state, and then ask us to recognize Israel," he said at a news conference in Stockholm Tuesday.


Then we'll say "No". And we'll attack 'cause the land you've recognized includes Israel dammit. It's ours - we voted on it.

#11  "Give us a country, a state, and then ask us to recognize Israel,"

Ok, take part of Norway. What? My right to assign Paleos parts of Norway is any less than the right of Norwegians to assign Paleos parts of Israel?

#12 "Give us a country, a state, and then ask us to recognize Israel,"

What, no pony?

Connect the dots. If all of their demands are met, what incentive will they have to actually recognize Israel? The Palestinians have had all-carrot and no-stick (from the international community) for far too long. Not one thin dime until they recognize Israel.
