And I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s just the 3000 miles LA &#8211; NY difference. You can almost hear that land of Palestine imploding. Things have spun so far out of control it&#8217;s hard to imagine what will happen. And in the midst of it all, somewhere in that benighted land some Hamas lunatic has run off with Yasser Arafat&#8217;s Nobel Peace Prize &#8211; a joke on a joke. I wonder what the pompous fakes in Oslo who awarded the psycho-killler the prize in the first place must be thinking. I&#8217;ll tell you what I&#8217;m thinking &#8211; it&#8217;s poetic justice. With luck the silly medal will end up melted down for BBs in some Jenin basement.]]>Sat, 16 Jun 2007 19:30:52 -0400<![CDATA[Roger L.
