Have you seen the jewish propaganda article lately posted by Yus namely 
"Israel´s Response Is Disproportionate". Yus must be going to bed with jews. 
Recalling years ago when he also called these Islamic freedom fighters as 
terrorists. He´s been whitewashed into western propaganda agenda. Some 
people can´t think for themselves critically.

Ignoring the fact that it is the Palestians  are the ones being occupied and 
suppressed is an understatement. The Jews have elliminated Arafat, by saying 
that he was not a viable partner. But what happened since his murder. Abbas 
was fooled and still being fooled by Israelis with one excuse after the 
other, Whilst the settlements are still being built on Palestinian land.

It is such a big lie to say that Israel left Gaza. The army left Gaza but 
still maintain control on both land and air. The place they left in Gaza was 
never left free to the Palestinians.

Hamaz won a clearcut ellections. What was the reward? Boycott! Since the 
west is still suffering from what Hitler did to the Jews, Israel will 
arrogantly continue to seize this oppurtunity in order to obtain their 
objectives.  All the western leaders are avoiding be called Anti-semite.

I don´t know what's  Yus Jow´s hatred towards Palestinians. But he´s left 
unchallenged on this forum with his anti-palestian propaganda. I wonder why 
no one´s telling him the truth?

Good night
and have a happy new year!
