Another "Martyr" Halted
Any pretense at making believe that the Palestinians Misplaced Arabs are a civilized people should be shattered by a story like this, in fact that pretense is belied by her own words:
"My dream was to be a martyr," she said, adding that she was recruited by the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a violent offshoot of Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement. "I believe in death."
Ok. An Arab female wants to kill herself to make a statement. The Left loves people like her because without them, they'd have to actually do something. So why would the left who are all about peace, love and happiness (when not protesting, burning flags, or destroying property) and life, support Palestinians who want to commit themselves to death? if the left wants everyone to get along, and live happily ever after then why in the heck are they supporting a culture of death and destruction?

Um, 'cuz they're Lefties? All leftists are concerned with is destruction of the current order. That's all they've been about historically, and it's all they offer now.

Maggie:
The Left also sees history as a process pushed by social movements and liberation. Liberation philosophies are very insidious, because they see nothing but imprediments in a life process to nowhere. You never arrive anywhere in leftism, you just keep going and removing obstructions, restraints and self-denials along the way. Death is the utlimate liberation, and I'm serious about this.
The Left also isn't about peace and love, either. It's about comfort, and because most of them can afford comfort, the nasty process of liberation is left to others less fortunate. Those willing to pay a price. Most leftists are spectators to the processes they set in motion.
The should go ahead and let her martyr herself, on a row-boat out at sea.
