Petition to UN in support of Israel

Thanks to your help, Hillel has almost reached our goal of 25,000 signatures.

We are going to deliver the petition to Kofi Annan’s office at the United Nations on Monday afternoon, July 31st. And, to make an even more powerful statement to the UN and world leaders, we are raising our goal to 35,000 signatures.

That’s just 10,000 more. We need your help to make one additional push.

Please pass this petition on to as many people as you can today and over the weekend. The petition can be found at http://www.hillel.org/supportisrael/?ref=support4.

Don't worry sand_man, the club where this was filmed is in Tucson. You are obviously far too sophisticated to fall for a trick like that.

Wow, you mean you neocons are depending on the UN to accomplish more of your hegemony on behalf of Israel than is already happening?

When are you guys going to register as agents of a foreign government as required by law?

Careful pat, the Mossad are everywhere, and Isreal and their "embeded" associates don't have have any qualms about killing people in their way.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14029827 Israel recently bombs charted UN observation post repeatedly, killing 4.

Foreign journalists have also been targeted, including British http://www.cpj.org/attacks05/mideast05/israel_05.html.

An lest we forget, back in '67.......
http://www.ussliberty.org Isreal repeatedly attacks US observation ship flying US colors repeatedly in an extended and deliberate air attack.

FYI, technically I'm Jewish from my great-grandmother and some A-rab olive growers is squatting on my turf, but really, anyone who is _____ before a US citizen is in the wrong country. The Israelis deserve a state. That has nothing to do with the US.

Cheneys' Haliburton shouldn't get a 50year closed-bid contract for wading blindly through the sinkhole called the middle east. Whitewater pales by comparison.

I mean, if you're 1/10th Irish, why wouldn't you have any reason not to support sending free F16's to drive out the orangemen?

If your Jewishness isn't passed on through your mother, then you're not Jewish at all. You could convert, but that's different and has a set of requirements that you'd have to meet.

No one is squatting on your turf unless you can show a link to ownership through the several methods of accomplishing that task. Merely being "Jewish" doesn't do that. There are millions of Jews that have absolutely no blood ties to the mideast.

Because use of the military for such an activity is clearly unConstitutional, immoral, and unethical.

"Cheneys' Haliburton shouldn't get a 50year closed-bid contract for wading blindly through the sinkhole called the middle east. Whitewater pales by comparison."

1. Haliburton got the pork-barrel contract to supply the military campaign through a closed-bid process. There were no other competing companies considered.
2. Cheney was a former Haliburton CEO with close economic ties.
3. Bin Laden was allowed to escape at Tora Bora by leaving the back door to Pakistan virtually open, and was his expected escape route. This extended the "war on terror"(US civil liberties) and allowed many pork-barrel projects. Homeland Security is currently dumping millions into protecting ice-cream stands and farm fields(who's per chance?).
4. Iraq extended Haliburtons contract, and the poorly conducted mission of mercy has dragged out the process to years, wether intentionally or not, to the benefit of it's CEOs and shareholders. Meals(spagetti) alone have been reported to cost $28 a pop- multiplied by millions but this is just a figure I heard.
5. There has been many accounts of overcharging, not delivering supplies(i.e. humvee bakesales), and mismanaging troop pay.

This is public taxs we're talking about, with no public representation. Where's mul?

Ya, we should have gotten a less equipped company to do the job. Halliburton is the only company capable of handling Iraq/Afghanistan, besides a French company and that is not an option...PERIOD.

This was a classic example of allowing liberal pressure run and ruin a war. The lefties and their press-titutes were ramping up their "how dare Bush the warmonger bomb poor wittle peace-loving Muswims on their high holy day!...No wonder the world hates us!!!"...Bush's worst failures have been caving to the Democrat propaganda war.

Damned if he did go into Tora Bora, damned if he didn't.

Lets keep our eye on the ball...This never would have happened had Clintoon did his job. Clinton didn't even need to find Osama, he was wrapped up in a package awaiting delivery by the Sudan...effortless and he dropped the ball and his pants instead.

Oh, I forgot to mention ALL that money we're dumping down the ME poophole also doesn't:

1. create a mass transit infrastructure for future population growth and limit urban sprawl so that a land-to-population balance is sustained. A happy and fed populous is more likely to be an efficient one.
2. develope renewable energy resources and regulate usage.
3. educate new generations so we don't have to depend on H1Bs to wipe our sorry asses.

But don't worry, mul, Red China is doing all of that, and when the US economic infrastructure is weakened enough, we'll just develope their system as dutyfull servants. Won't we?
