someone needs to drive a stake into the grave before they worry about replacing him. Just to be sure.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

Ding dong the fuckers dead. Now as I said before: stake the bastard, cram his cake hole with garlic, and decapitate him to be sure. No need to have him raise from the grave and bleed Palestine some more.

Hopefully this will give the Palestinians the chance to pick a leader that's not horribly corrupt and willing to discard peace for his own power; Arafat really was a terrible leader to try and give them peace. But given them no doubt they'll election/pick/murder in some one worse in his place.

Justify this rabid hate. World leaders are expressing their condolances for the man; why don't you put a sock in it.

He's a butcher and a thief and has devoted the past 50 years of his life to killing and being an obstacle to peace.

Thanks for stepping to the plate and "justifying". :roll: To accuse the man of devoting his time to killing and being an obstacle to peace is such utter bullshit. But then, it's easier to just swallow the propoganda from the Israeli's and your government then to investigate his life yourself, isn't it.

I agree with Crackpot as to the "One down, one to go" thing. Here's hoping Sharon is the next to kick the bucket.

You accused him of devoting his life to killing and preventing peace, which is the kind of lie only your government and Israel has the audacity to state. I can quote you if you're having memory issues.

did i say Israel was innocent? haven't i expressed my disagreement time and time again regarding the blank check my country writes to Israel every year? DIDN'T I JUST PAINT ARIEL SHARON WITH THE SAME BRUSH AS ARAFAT? Are you not paying attention, or is it not convienient for you to acknowlege that right now?
