I am sure you have read the second report issued by the UN re the murders on the flotilla and the report about what was done in Lebanon several years ago.</div> <div> </div> <div>Third, the Israelis would have to come to grips with the border and other issues with the UN behind the Palestinians; more access to UN resources; and more leverage in negotiations. Then there is the water from the Jordan river and the occupied territories that Israel now has access to that they would lose...... or have to pay for.</div> <div> </div> <div>As for Obama, politically he cannot support the Palestinians; if he did, for sure, he would loose the election. The American people are not aware of the deeds of the terrorist and apartheid state of Israel, nor the power of the Israeli lobbies and how effective they are attacking any Politian who does not toe the line.</div> <div> </div> <div>Perry wants the rapture vote and some conservative Jewish voters........and to attack the president</div></div><div></div><div></div></div></div> <blockquote style="border-left: #000000 2px solid; padding-left: 5px; padding-right: 0px; margin-left: 5px; margin-right: 0px;"><div style="font: 10pt arial;">----- Original Message -----</div> <div style="font: 10pt arial;"><strong>From:</strong> <a title="mailto:crkeene@juno.com" href="mailto:crkeene@juno.com">crkeene@juno.com</a></div> <div style="font: 10pt arial;"><strong>To:</strong> <a title="mailto:PaulandCarole@msn.com" href="mailto:PaulandCarole@msn.com">PaulandCarole@msn.com</a></div> <div style="font: 10pt arial;"><strong>Sent:</strong> Wednesday, September 21, 2011 3:22 PM</div> <div style="font: 10pt arial;"><strong>Subject:</strong> Fw: [PAA-Discuss] A $50 question</div> <div></div> <div><br><br>Please note: forwarded message attached<br><br>From: "Massoud" <<a title="mailto:massoud1@windstream.net" href="mailto:massoud1@windstream.net">massoud1@windstream.net</a>><br>To: <<a title="mailto:discuss@paa-tx.org" href="mailto:discuss@paa-tx.org">discuss@paa-tx.org</a>><br>Subject: [PAA-Discuss] A $50 question<br>Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2011 15:03:40 -0500<br><br></div> <div class="WordSection1"><div class="MsoNormal">Dear friends . and the desperate Zionists,</div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> <div class="MsoNormal">I have a sincere question and I'm willing to pay $50 to the author of the best answer. I've been following very closely the issue of Mahmoud Abbas initiative to presents his membership bid to the UN Security Council on Friday. I personally believe in One Democratic State in that region. However I don't understand why Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Texas Governor and GOP presidential candidate Rick Perry and U.S. President Barack Obama are so nervous about the possibility of a Palestinian statehood? undoubtedly all of them (including their pundits in the main media) are against it, but none of them explain why this is such a bad idea? Do you know why they are so afraid of the possibility of a Palestinian Statehood? Can anyone explain why these people desperately are trying to block the Palestinian membership in the U.N.?</div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> <div class="MsoNormal">Please make it short to a 200 words or less and reply with your first and last name, so all participants have a fair chance to win the $50.</div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> <div class="MsoNormal">Thanks.</div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div> <div class="MsoNormal">Massoud</div> <div class="MsoNormal"> </div></div> <div><br><br><br><br><span style="font-family: Tahoma; font-size: x-small;"><br>=======<br>Email scanned by PC Tools - No viruses or spyware found.<br>(Email Guard: 7.0.0.26, Virus/Spyware Database: 6.18360)<br><a title="http://www.pctools.com/?cclick=EmailFooterClean_51" href="http://www.pctools.com/?cclick=EmailFooterClean_51">http://www.pctools.com</a><br>=======</span></div>---------------<br>Progressive Action Alliance http://progressiveactionalliance.org/<br>Discuss mailing list Discuss@paa-tx.org<br>To subscribe, unsubscribe, access the archives, or change your options on this list, go to:<br>http://mail.paa-tx.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss_paa-tx.org<br><br>To reply only to the person posting this note, use "Reply".<br>To reply so that everyone on this list receives your note, use "Reply All".<br>Check the "To:" field in your message, before sending, to ensure it goes to the correct address.<br><br><br></blockquote></div></html>
