I have no reason not to believe the med school student, and I know from
many sources that the statement "Arabs, and in particular Arab women,
have more freedom, liberties and academic opportunities in Israel than
in any Arab country."

If you are a Palestinian, that is not really true for most, whether
they are male or female.
As for Arab women, they had more freedom in the Shah's Iran too but
you think that was horrible in spite of the fact that the "oppressed"
were the muslim fundamentalists.

I also believe that you don't give a **** one way or the other about the
self-described Palestinians.

I am mostly interested in peace and there are plenty of people around
the world who agree with me.

You are mostly interested in the price and availability of oil, and
don't give a damn about "peace," other than its impact on the price and
availability of oil.

Ah the old "It's all about oil" dodge.
Are you really stupid are you just quoting old lines you heard 20
years ago?
We do not get any significant amounts of oil from the middle east.

Personally it really does not really matter that much to me either
way. I don't buy that much gasoline and my electricity comes from
natural gas. I am invested with T Boone who wants to get our OTR
trucks on CNG too.

Not at all. Many times here you have indicated the only thing that
really matters to you is "profit," or money-making. I'm sure that is
behind your support of the Palestinian desire to push the Israelis into
the Mediterranean, because you figure that with the "Jewish state" gone,
tensions in the Middle East will ease, and that will profit your
portfolio, if not fill your gas tank.

I'm more cynical. I figure if the Muslims no longer have the Israeli
Jews to kill, they'll concentrate on what they do best...killing each
other.
