That has nothing to do with racism, so it seems you've changed the
topic to Waco, David Koresh, and the Branch Davidians.

What do you want to discuss about that?

It's rather the UN that needs to get over Palestine - without the UN keeping the
camps running and maintaining status quo people would move. The Arabs despise
the Palestine people as much as the jews.

At the cost of maybe 20% of the German population - which clearly noone is
willing to pay yet in the middle east; mainly because it would look really bad
on TeeVee. If one is not going to fight for real and destroy the opponents there
is really, really no point in sending soldiers.

Therein lies the problem:

"Policy" seems to mean more and more: "Keep that Saudi Oil flowing" for a few
years more regardless of the costs in civilian lives and freedom of speach and
expression.

I.M.O: If WW2 was conducted the same way, we would be still be busy knocking
over small groups of Waffen SS while talking about our "deep respect" for
Neo-German culture and the historic achievements of Hitler (all the while buying
German products to prop up the failing plundocracy)!
