At what point will air travel become unaffordable

Part of the "Roadmap" presented by Bush was to stop building settlements. Clinton opposed the construction. So did Bush 41. Have they demanded that they be demolished? No. But that doesn't alter the fact that they opposed it. |

One presumes, up to a point, at least, that a memeber of an organization endorses that organization's views. ************* DAVE HATUNEN ) ************* * Tucson Arizona, out where the cacti grow * * My typos & mispellings are intentional copyright traps * |

Did you read the part of 242 about recognition of Israel ? One wonders if you would be trotting out 242 if the "Yom Kippur" war had turned out differently... sadly like too many Europeans I tend to doubt it. The PA walked AWAY from the negotiating table... they had no interest in negotiations... which is also reflected in their current elected government's stated position. jay Sep 18, 2006 The minimal Palestinian remand was the implementation of UN Resolution 242. that is a fact... they wanted homicide bombers and no peace.

Interesting about all of the complaints about the Pope's speech. As expected, quite a few muslims responded with violence, to protest a small section about muslims being violent...... hundreds of years ago. |

Lots of bits were deducted (especially West Jerusalem) before the computation of the spurious 95%. Did you read the part of 242 about recognition of Israel ? Yes. I note you avoided my question, Because it is without foundation, 242 does NOT define any borders. Consistent with that, is the fact all future joint accords/treaties have not yet defined the final borders, which the UN has always maintained that the borders will be defined by the parties. and the issue of Breach of international law. You should read the UNSC Resolution first. One wonders if you would be trotting out 242 if the "Yom Kippur" war had turned out differently... Engage brain before expressing opinions. There would be no 242. .... read the 2nd sentence of the resolution. sadly like too many Europeans I tend to doubt it. You really are a ****ing idiot. In fact, I was pleased that Israel survived that war. The fact that you need to say it ("in fact") argues my point about too many Europeans... thank you. The PA walked AWAY from the negotiating table... They walked away from a table where there were no negotiations. Dennis Ross, the principle mediator, says your wrong. they had no interest in negotiations... which is also reflected in their current elected government's stated position. Their current government is the result of Israel not being prepared to deal honestly and honourably with Fatah, The same Fatah, that the EU finally stopped funding cause the charges of 'EU financing suicide bombers' were getting to close to home when they could not audit the books ... ok... we did learn Arafat's wife was getting $100k/month to live in Paris. jay Mon Sep 18, 2006 and actually promoting Hamas for a while.
