Naqba Coming Soon: Those Dastardly Zionists

Brian C. Ledbetter · Thursday, May 1. 2008 14:45
Looks like we're ramping up for yet another Nakba, a pseudo-festival that essentially boils down to another tireless excuse for Muslims to come out and hate Israel some more. In preparations for this year's festivities, which will happen on the 15th of May, we can see the Palestinians are already putting on one heck of a play.



Palestinians take part in a play in commemoration of Nakba Day "The Day of Catastrophe" during a rally in Gaza May 1, 2008. Palestinians will mark Nakba on May 15 as a day of mourning for the establishment of Israel after the 1948 Arab-Israeli war which led to the displacement of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians.

Seriously, I'm not sure what I find funnier about this picture—The fact that they use midgets to represent the IDF, or the fact that there is almost nobody watching (at least, judging by the background).

The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*...

I can be so insensitive sometimes!

Seriously, though: Considering that he's participating in a play depicting Israel as some bizarre genocidal country, I have no qualms whatsoever about referring to him in particular as a "midget."

;-)

Regards, and thanks for pointing out my slight faux pas,
Brian

*Considering that there were nearly twice as many Jews kicked out of the surrounding Arab countries in 1948 and 1967, what are the non-Jordanian-Non-Lebanese-Non-Egyptian Arabs of the East Mediterranean complaining about?

Oh yeah, they completely frakked up their own civilization with heavy doses of the dark-age hatred ingrained in the Qur'an, Hadith and Sunnah... but can't bear to point their fingers at themselves or their Arab neighbors. My mistake.

*What are the odds of Reuters covering an anti-terrorism festival? Are we still allowed to say that, or am I offending some jihadist somewhere by even suggesting such a thing?

*Palestinians are a sub - human species that deserve total annihilation. None of the other Arab nations want them so they have become Israel's problem. Israel should roll over them in tanks and bomb them into the ground. Then plow their bodies into the land and plant farmland. That's the only way anyone will get any use out of those uneducated and ignorant animals.

PS. Peace

The midget dwarf should be thankful muhammad never mentioned a dislike for little people, otherwise, this display would have ended with his execution...
