I think the Christian Zionist movement is a clear and present danger. I'm glad to see someone make mention of this fact and point the finger where it rightfully belongs. Jerry Falwell's legacy is accurately being told by Christopher Hitchens. Here is Hitchen's on CNN telling it like it is. I lost respect for Hitchens when he shifted sides and supported the neocon agenda in Iraq but on the issue of religion, Falwell and Israeli occupation, he is dead on.
It's hard to phathom this truism, that Christian Zionists are more Zionists than Jewish Zionists, but it's absolutely true. Christian Zionism dates back 400 years. Jewish Zionism is only 100 years old. This marriage of convenience between the two is a interesting one to observe. Jews and Christians have different agendas for Israel but what is clear, both are in agreement the Palestinians, be they Christians or Muslims, must be eradicated from Palestine(Israel).
The end game for Christians is the end of times and second coming of Christ. It's too bad Falwell will miss the rapture but let's hope he won't miss his judgment day in hell.

Death by a million pieces
It seems Palestinian fratricide binge will continue. A very tragic turn of events but not surprising when you consider how Israel and America have been shaping events in the region for so many years. In Iraq, we see clearly the aims of America ( a Zionist occupied territory). The decimation of Iraq is as blatant as it gets but yet you still have individuals deny the obvious. In Lebanon, the same thing happened, Israel bombed the place to oblivion and with the help of America, working covertly to create a civil war there. The Seniora government was installed by America and it continues to fully fund and support their puppet regime. In Palestine, the same divide and conquer strategy is in play, this time America is funding and training militias that support and are to defend Abbas - their guy, and so it was only a matter of time before the situation was going to explode in the matter it did with Palestinians killing Palestinians. The ecomomic sanctions are part of the problem as well. They were put in place to punish the people for voting in Hamas.
Who said democracy isn't a good thing, just make sure American and Israeli dictates are followed and people elect those ZOG wants elected.
If one follows that simple rule, a good chance one will live to see another day.
As for the factional fighting in Gaza, it could only get worse. I think too many red lines were crossed making it difficult to impossible - for the short term - to have true unity. I just think Fatah has not gotten over the fact they lost power to Hamas in a fair election.
There was a reason why Arafat refused early elections, rejected elections in Gaza entirely. He knew full well support for Hamas was great and they could win. That was precisely why for so long he refused to have elections in Gaza.
As for current events, I fear the worse is yet to come. All it takes is an assassination of one or more prominent Hamas or Fatah leaders by either side to escalate the hostility to an all out civil war. Israeli will be looking for ways to capitalize on this situation, so it wouldn't surprise me to learn Mossad will light the fuse on this tinder box with the assassination of someone prominent-- and make it look like it came from one or the other side.
The solution must include international troops on Israel and Gaza border. This is something Israel has rejected in years past. Israel accepts international troops on Sinia Egyptian border with Israel, with Lebanon border with Israel, but continues to reject international troop presence in Gaza or the West Bank, for fear it's claim on territory would be dimished. That's the bottomline regarding Israeli rejection. In fact, Israel has yet to acknowledge Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem, are occupied territories.

The Brief History of Disbelief.
I watched the series by Jonathen Miller and it made me think of many things. It is thought provoking and I enjoyed the way it dealt with the entire question of disbelief and atheism. I'm not sure where I fall on that question, my skeptical side, which views religion in a negative light, was finding lots of agreement with Jonathen Miller's viewpoints.
