Quote:<b>“Military orders cut the occupied territories off from the rest of the world, making Israel their main supplier (90 percent of the occupied territories' imports come from or through Israel). Thus the wages paid to the workers were returned to Israel as payments for Israeli consumer goods. By absorbing the labor force, while at the same time pursuing a policy of rejecting Palestinian applications for licenses to start productive projects, the Israelis were able to destroy the occupied territories' economic infrastructure, thus facilitating the integration of the latter's economy into that of Israel” (For a full analysis, see his book, The Political Economy of West Bank).

Moslems’ obsession with Jews is as entertaining as it is pitiable. Moslems’ self created victimhood under the guise of those crafty Joooo conspiracies is part of Arab/Moslem cultural norms. What do these endless conspiratorial musings have in common? All of them tell us of millions of Moslem Middle Easterners who have immersed themselves in an imaginary world of conspiracies that is fueled by insecurity and self hate. Remember Baghdad Bob? (Saddam’s propaganda mouthpiece who was convinced that his fantasies were more real than the US armored forces plowing through Baghdad). The Baghdad Bob syndrome is not so unusual.
Historians, both Western and Islamic, have oft noted that Moslem culture is more <i>fantasy prone</i> than modern, Western cultures. History has shown that Islam was passed by as the Renaissance, the European enlightenment, and finally the scientific-technological revolution, all predicated on free thought and open debate, allowed the West to surge ahead and forge new avenues of social, political and economic advances.
Careful there Shaunee'. The Joooos might sneak out from the black helicopters patrolling under your bed and knock you senseless with their bound copies of the Patriot Act.
