What happened to the pictures? Exhibit A, Exhibit B
Will they ever come back? Yes and no

It Must Be "Youths"day

The wire services are afloat in pictures of the stereotypical Palestinian "youths" (i.e., what are in most cases 25-year-old men who look suspiciously like "militants"), hurling stones and other random objects at Israeli police forces.

As many times as this exact picture has been taken, it's amazing that someone at the editorial desk still thinks it's news.

AP-Friendly Roundup: youths, youths, youths, youths, youths, youths, youths, youths, youths, youths, youths.
 

A Society Without Parallels

One could spend a lifetime studying the psychological effects of this type of "culture" on the children raised therein, if one were so inclined. Personally, I'll just be happy when the world stops pretending that these people are somehow innocent.

Those "Unfair" Israeli Jails, Part Deux

(Might as well post this now, since I'd rather not let Rooster's little atrocity hog the front page. LOL, revenge will surely come your way, Roost—I've got a really special pic of yours that I've been saving up for just this occasion!)

Here's another example of yesterday's story, fresh off of the wires today. Are these photographers trying to outdo each other with "touching" pictures of these terrorist families?

Notice the two "blob-like" statues that this family has amongst their collection of artwork. As I've commented on previously, this is a map that includes what is currently the entire State of Israel—which means that this family is fighting for a Jew-free Palestine.

Apparently, their fight continues to be shared by the propagandists in our press.

Israel agreed on Sunday to free another 90 Palestinian prisoners to try to bolster President Mahmoud Abbas ahead of a U.S.-sponsored conference on Palestinian statehood, officials said.

Somehow, this point continues to elude the national disgraces that populate our State Department.
 

Peekaboo!

Encouraging your children to play war games with a grown-up Army doesn't seem to me like it would be all that beneficial to their health.

And, what do you know, this little tyke looks awfully familiar to me:

At least 16 Palestinians were killed in fierce factional fighting in Gaza on Wednesday and Israel entered the fray with an air strike on a Hamas position that killed at least four gunmen.

Another case of watching 'em grow up and blow up? Could be.

Sadly, I suspect this little boy's life will be artificially shortened as a result of the pervasive brainwashing wrought on him by the Palestinian government and his parents—with the full permission of the spineless West, no less.

It's sad, really.

Check out below the fold for a couple more pictures of awesome parenting, if you want. And then ask yourself why there's no peace in the Middle East. Continue reading »
 

Pervasive Aggrandizement

The Palestinian culture of violence is rooted in the pervasive, all-encompassing propaganda that their culture forces upon its children. Here's a prime example of this phenomenon—the children are returning to their schools for the first school-day of the year, in the presence of the ever-ready photojournalist corps. Keep a keen eye on these childrens' surroundings:—The content of the murals, in particular, tell a rather one-sided story of the Palestinian conflict.

Thousands of Palestinian children kicked off the new school year on Saturday in the Gaza Strip, but some of their counterparts in the West Bank got an extra day of vacation thanks to a teacher's strike.

For the record, the map in the photograph above encompasses the entire borders of the current State of Israel—the target of the terrorist regime of the Palestinians. Is it any wonder that, after being incubated in surroundings like this for their entire lives, that the "cycle of violence" wrought by the Palestinian terrorists never ceases?

I'll be tracking more of these works of propaganda beyond the fold. Continue reading »
 

Feel the Flames of Hate

Yup, definitely ready for statehood:

Record Speed!

It would seem that, in less than 12 hours, the dastardly Zionists have killed the leader of the brand new offshoot of Al-Aqsa Martys Brigades. Score one for the home team!

Palestinian mourners carry the body of militant Mohammed Morai, 24, the leader of the Abu Ammar Brigades, in the West Bank town of Jenin, Tuesday, May 29, 2007. Israeli troops shot and killed the wanted gunman in the nearby village of Kufr al-Dan, the army said. Residents identified the man as the leader of a new militant group linked to the Fatah movement called the 'Yasser Arafat Brigades.' After the shooting, dozens of people paraded his body through the streets of the village, vowing revenge. (AP Photo/Mohammed Ballas)


Notice that Mohammed Ballas and Mohammed Torokman were both present at the press conference announcing this new terror organization as well. Is it a coincidence that he was around when its brand new leader was slain? I think not.

I have a sneaking suspicion that both photographers were celebrating the day's festivities with the gang in the duration between this morning's story and this latest update. Good thing, too—otherwise, this immortal feat of Israeli policy would escape my notice completely.

I've rounded up some other pictures of this thankfully-former leader below the fold. Make note that some of the pictures are mildly graphic, so if you're averse to such things, be sure to skip this one.
