		<description><![CDATA[Jonas,

Considering how much of the EDL consists of racist skinheads, I would have to disagree with you.

Just because they have a &#039;Jewish Division&#039; does not mean that the vast majority of the organization of friends of the Jewish faith. I think they are merely ultra-Zionist because of the position that modern Zionism takes toward Islam.

In short, I wouldn&#039;t trust the EDL as far as I could throw it. Which isn&#039;t terribly far at all.

		<description><![CDATA[The United States certainly bears some responsibility for the fate of Europe&#039;s Jews but, if anything, the culprit was the failure of the US to answer the &quot;calls for war&quot; in the mid to late 30s.

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Hahahaha!! Wow!! It’s quite amazing when leftists and liberals openly admit the hellish and miserable life that the indigenous, non-Muslim pre-Islamic peoples of Middle East (the still surviving ones, anyway) have as third-class citizens in their own ancestral lands under their invader Muslim overlords, who now outnumber the said natives 10 to 1.&quot;

What evidence do you have that these people live a &quot;hellish and miserable&quot; life?  The &quot;liberal&quot; you attacked certainly did not suggest that.  

&quot; All the while, at the same time the likes of you ferociously attack and slander those non-brainwashed few remaining courageous European men and women from EDL, BNP, NPD, Front National and Vlaams Belang, for not wishing to become racially and demographically displaced in their own countries by non-European immigrant colonizers, because they don’t want their people to end up in the same horrific predicament that the Armenians, Pontic Greeks and Assyrians were in Turkey, or the Maronites are in Lebanon and the Copts are in Egypt.&quot;

Hold on a second...RACIAL? I thought this was just about culture and religion?  Guess that was a Freudian slip; or maybe Hitler slip.  Anyway, those groups are far from &quot;courageous&quot; as they scapegoat pretty much any minority group, including Poles in the case of some of them.  Not many Muslim Poles in Britain.  

Also you are apparently unfamiliar with the term colonization. See, colonization is when people come into another territory by force or some ruse, and start to run society.  Immigration and colonization are two different things.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rodger,

So you&#039;re saying that you agree with Lindy&#039;s assertion that American demonization of Germany led to worse treatment of the Jews?

You&#039;re a bigger fool than most.

No wonder you defend all of those crypto- (and not quite so cryptically) Fascist organizations. (See the EDL...)

Have fun in your fantasy world!

&quot;How exactly does Geller plan to “save” Coptic Christians in Egypt with her flotilla? Does she plan on relocating them, and if so, to where?&quot;

&quot;I too am worried about the possibility that the Coptic community may face more persecution in the future, as a religious minority in the Middle East&quot;

Hahahaha!! Wow!! It&#039;s quite amazing when leftists and liberals openly admit the hellish and miserable life that the indigenous, non-Muslim pre-Islamic peoples of Middle East (the still surviving ones, anyway) have as third-class citizens in their own ancestral lands under their invader Muslim overlords, who now outnumber the said natives 10 to 1.

&quot;But, having an extremist like Geller setting herself up as a “friend” to their community isn’t doing the Copts any favors either.&quot;

Again, with your  hypocrisy. You know, Charles Lindbergh said almost exactly the same thing, when he warned the American public on how the pervasive demonizing of Germany and German people by the mainstream U.S media, prominent public figures and politicians and their drumming up of the calls for war (all of which was already taking place from mid to late 30s,  before the WWII actually broke out), will only serve to exacerbate the already existing ill-will in Germany towards Jews even more and would further endanger the lives of the Jewish community.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I often wonder how many in Germany applauded the persecution of communists, homosexuals, Roma, and Jews until they themselves were deported to death camps.  Persecution of minorities is reprehensible and perilous whoever the victims may be.  Geller and Moore have finally realized that the EDL hates Jews as much as they hate Muslims.  Perhaps someday they will realize that religious and ethnic intolerance are a danger to each of us.  Finally we are each a minority of one.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not Muslims, but we, European Christians committed atrocity against Jews throughout the history – &quot;pogroms&quot;, expulsions and finally Holocaust.

***

Israel occupied the Palestinian territories in the 1967; UN SC Resolutions 242 and 478 declared this act &quot;null and void&quot;, stating that it was a violation of international law.

UN SC Resolution 242 - adopted unanimously in 1967, in the aftermath of the Six Day War - says: 

&quot;Affirms that the fulfillment of Charter principles requires the establishment of a just and lasting peace in the Middle East which should include the application of both the following principles:

(i) Withdrawal of Israel armed forces from territories occupied in the recent conflict;

(ii) Termination of all claims or states of belligerency and respect for and acknowledgment of the sovereignty, territorial integrity and political independence of every State in the area and their right to live in peace within secure and recognized boundaries free from threats or acts of force

“…United Nations have called the blockade illegal according to the Geneva Conventions on a number of occasions, a call also echoed by the International Committee of the Red Cross. Both organizations repeatedly urge Israel to lift the blockade...&quot;

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Of course the original ‘leftist’ flotilla was not trying to bring aid to Gaza , aid already reaches Gaza through Israel (and Egypt which is also ‘isolating’ Gaza though always left unmentioned) and is paid for by …well US, Europe through UNRWA and other charities. The Turkish organised flotilla was a stunt to attempt to force Israel to lift its blockade and allow unfettered access to the Hamas regime that controls Gaza. Israel doesnt want such uncontrolled access to a designated terrorist led State as it fears escalation of armed hostilities along the Gazan border similar to hezballah along the lebanese border.&quot;

		<description><![CDATA[Of course the original &#039;leftist&#039; flotilla was not trying to bring aid to Gaza , aid already reaches Gaza through Israel (and Egypt which is also &#039;isolating&#039; Gaza though always left unmentioned) and is paid for by ...well US, Europe through UNRWA and other charities. The Turkish organised flotilla was a stunt to attempt to force Israel to lift its blockade and allow unfettered access to the Hamas regime that controls Gaza. Israel doesnt want such uncontrolled access to a designated terrorist led State  as it fears escalation of armed hostilities along the Gazan border similar to hezballah along the lebanese border.  

Geller&#039;s flotilla , if it gets off the ground ..is also a stunt , designed to shine a light on the conditions of minorities in Muslim majority countries...which can sometimes be perilous.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are few places in the world where non-Muslims are facing Gaza-like conditions at the hands of Muslims.  Turkey, of course, is still a secular state, notwithstanding the recent victories of the AK Party.  Obviously Coptic Christians have faced some violence recently, but they have been in Egypt for well over a thousand years now, and they haven&#039;t expressed any desire to leave en masse. 

If anyone gets on that boat it will probably be because they believe they are being offered asylum to the US or something.  I predict humiliation, disaster, and hilarity.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How exactly does Geller plan to &quot;save&quot; Coptic Christians in Egypt with her flotilla? Does she plan on relocating them, and if so, to where?

I too am worried about the possibility that the Coptic community may face more persecution in the future, as a religious minority in the Middle East. But, having an extremist like Geller setting herself up as a &quot;friend&quot; to their community isn&#039;t doing the Copts any favors either.

It&#039;s just like when Glenn Beck set up his rally to &quot;support&quot; Israel; ultimately, I feel rallies like that will do Israel more harm than good, since the last thing the people of Israel need is to be associated with divisive figures like Beck (and Geller).]]></description>
