    Default What a dear old lady...

    It starts like a typical "of the poor little Palestinian lambs" story, and then this old lady starts bragging about a massacre of Jews in Hebron in the good old days (presumably in 1929.) and how her own father participated in the massacre and looting of jewish homes, at which point the reporter suddenly ends the interview. I guess that part didn't fit the agenda or something...

    So what do you say guys, isn't censorship fun? It also sheds some more light on the recent "peaceful protests".
    The massacre in question:

    Imagine if your old granny told you as a kid how awesome it was massacring people. You'd grow up ed in the head.

    Explains a lot.

    The OP needs to be improved, opening a thread with a youtube video isn't a great start.

    Anyway who here is denying that Jews and Palestinians committed reciprocal attacks on each other during the period of the British Mandate in the Interwar period?.It grew so bad that Britain issued a White Paper in 1939 which restricted Jewish immigration and promised a partitioned but independent Palestine.This was a controversial move especially because of the Second World War which began in the same year.

    Add the words of a lovely old granny to the words spoken in the Palestinian media every day, then you might understand where I'm coming from.

    There are literally thousands of videos out there expressing similar sentiments.

    Go have a look.

    BTW I didn't say every single Palestinian holds such opinions.

    Probably 10,900,000 do. Even 3 and 4 year olds talk about killing Jews.

    Do you have sources for any of this?
    And btw, saying "Probably 10,900,00 do" is just as bad a generalization, unless there's been some sort of poll that asked every single Palestinian on the planet what they think about Jews and the vast majority of them said "kill em all".

    ''Probably'' is not a definitive statement that requires a number.

    Sources?

    Go look at memri.tv.

    If you have a few years to watch videos you may be able to see a small percentage of the evidence.

    I fail to see how a video of an old lady ranting about massacring Jews is deserving of a thread. What's there to discuss? Some people are just a little loopy.

    It shows the true nature of recent "protests", during which this video was made.

    No it shows the opinion of one lady. You can be proud and loopy at the same time.

    She's not loopy, she's proud as punch.

    I don't see the discussion of current events or individuals in politics.

    "For what it’s worth: it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again."
