Gaza

This picture is from a story on Aljazeera about the Jews are being mean to the Palestinians, the same story that Aljazeera repeats endlessly. Well, too bad. Gaza's not getting any sympathy from me until Hamas is rooted out and every last one of them sons-of-bitches are in the ground. But that's not why this picture is here.

This picture is here because there must be a zillion people in it. Makes me wonder if maybe Hamas' plan is to kill a half of the people in Gaza, like all good communists do, and it's cheaper if they can get the Jews to do it. I wonder what the kill ratio is. If Hamas kills a Jew, you know the Jews will retaliate, possibly killing half a dozen Gazans. So for the price one bullet you can get six of your fellow Gazans killed. What a bargain.
