    They lost the argument and have to resort to these tactics so no problem.

    It's obvious to anyone with a brain what is going on.

    Anyhow I am just wondering if these Christians might convert to Islam!
    One womans American husband allowed her to volunteer to be taken hostage which is unbelievable I have to admit!!!:shock:


    Seems they had quite a nice time being kidnapped by the Egyptian bedouin :mrgreen:

    Please avoid personal attacks and trolling. Also, purposely misquoting another members is a rule violation and should be avoided. Future violations will result in an infraction and/or a thread banning and maybe a forum banning. Please be respectful.

    It (feeling as if one is spied upon etc when there is no real threat) that may be a symptom of Paranoid schizophrenia, but not always. There are other presentations that can mimic the disease...

    The neat thing about such claims that can't be proven, is they they further identify the existence of a considerable problem. Since nothing exists to support such claims, explain why some Zionists argue that Israel can only be defended by insulting Arab Semites of being "sandn*ggers", "non people" or other similar racial slurs. Under such conditions, one can only admit that much of Zionism has become heavily anti-Semite.

    There is currently much Zionist noise about gullible American foolishness concerning the possibly desired unnecessary conflict with Semites/Persians. Under such conditions, it is not very intelligent to shower the hated Semites or Persians with more racism. Rather, it is better to wait for the results of the investigation:

    US 'used NGOs to create chaos in Egypt': minister
    http://www.google.com/hostednews/af...ocId=CNG.44924fb62c5f6aa60b1644bcd6e44b6e.8a1

    The case of the NGOs is now in front of the Egyptian courts and as difficult as it may sound the United States should not ask the military to intervene in the affairs of the judiciary and dismiss the case—independence of the judiciary is one of the democratic tenets the United States preaches. It’s also premature for Washington to end military aid. But, the United States should demand that the case be expedited as much as possible.

    Is this Egyptian perspective justified?

    the United States suddenly changed the rules of the game that had been in place for years when it started disbursing large amounts of economic aid to the American NGOs after the overthrow of Mubarak. Precise figures are elusive, but $50 million appears to be a fair estimate.

    Jews have always fared better with Arabs than Europeans until the arrival of Europeans in Palestine in the 50's. Since then, the European settlers in Palestine have not made much of an effort to demonstrate that they are willing to live with Arabs and they've always tried to pull all Jews into their hostile environment. Arabs generally have a different mentality from Europeans and thus I find this frequent Zionist effort to compare Arabs with them as being inaccurate. Most Arabs seem to be willing to accept Israel and to treat Israelis as being Jewish Arab brothers and sisters, while many Israelis seem to favor biblical Israeli conquest theories which tend to conflict with friendly relations with others. I'm thus confident that Israel would be treated better, loved and even protected by Arabs if it desired such.

    Unlike in Islamic culture in Western culture wives are not subordinate to their husbands. By making that assumption you are guilty of cultural insensitivity and your remark will be considered very insulting which presumably was not your intention.

    Obama is going to see a lot more anti-Americanism coming out of Egypt as it moves from military rule to rule by wild eyed bearded fanatics.

    Once oboobma is out in a few months, the two countries will come to a reasonable agreement.

    Maybe the Egyptians should treat the Yankee terrorists like the US treats Afghanis & Iraqis.

    It appears that they have already concluded a deal with the Islamists to share the region.

    Ah, but you see only Americans and Israelis are allowed to make use of "Advanced interrogation techniques" [I think that's the Politically correct term]

    I don't know if you know this or not, but, If the roles are reversed it's actually classed as human rights violations, and could lead to invasion.

    Luckily for these Americans, their captors are treating them fairly nicely. Which is good.

    That's about it, AstheticBrah.

    We have become a "hoodwinked dishonored people with collective insanity."

    I guess we could cut off the billions in aid we send to Egypt each year. We'd either get results or save taxpayer money.

    We send more money to Egypt than we do to Israel, BTW.

    The aid money is compensation to Egypt for suffering under US-Israeli aggression.

    But, now that the Muslim Brotherhood has taken over Egypt, the compensation should cease, unless Egypt gets rid of the Talmudic Muslim Brothelhood.

    Aid money going to Egypt is a result of the Camp David deal and is a form of compensation to Egypt.

    Right. The money isn't the result of paying for aggression, since we have never done anything to Egypt. The money is payola for the Israelis and Egyptians to not fight each other. If Egypt decides to fight Israel, then no more cookies for them. Yep, no more aid money or food aid from Uncle Sugar
