Молодец Новодворская!
Я ее всегда уважала. Очень рада, что она не разочаровавает.
С другого сайта: (для Palycha) Sorry for the long piece.

For those who don't know, Dennis Miller is a comedian
who has a show called Dennis Miller Live on HBO. He is
not Jewish.
He recently said the following about the Mideast
situation:
"A brief overview of the situation is always valuable,
so as a service to all Americans who still don't get
it, I now offer you the story of the Middle East in
just a few paragraphs, which is all you really need.
Here we go:
The Palestinians want their own country. There's just
one thing about that:
There are no Palestinians. It's a made up word. Israel
was called Palestine for two thousand years. Like
"Wiccan," "Palestinian" sounds ancient but is really a
modern invention.
Before the Israelis won the land in the 1967 war, Gaza
was owned by Egypt,the West Bank was owned by Jordan ,
and there were no "Palestinians."
As soon as the Jews took over and started growing
oranges as big as basketballs, what do you know, say
hello to the "Palestinians," weeping for their deep
bond with their lost "land" and "nation."
So for the sake of honesty, let's not use the word
"Palestinian" anymore to describe these delightful
folks, who dance for joy at our deaths, until
someone points out they're being taped.
Instead, let's call them what they are: "Other Arabs
Who Can't Accomplish
Anything In Life And Would Rather Wrap Themselves In
The Seductive
Melodrama Of Eternal Struggle And Death."
I know that's a bit unwieldy to expect to see on CNN.
How about this, then:
"Adjacent Jew-Haters." Okay, so the Adjacent
Jew-Haters want their own country. Oops, just one more
thing. No, they don't. They could've had their own
country any time in the last thirty years, especially
two years ago at Camp David but if you have your own
country, you have to have traffic
lights and garbage trucks and Chambers of
Commerce,and, worse, you actually have to figure out
some way to make a living. That's no fun. No,they want
what all the other Jew-Haters in the region want:
Israel. They also want a big pile of dead Jews, of
course -- that's where the real fun
is -- but mostly they want Israel.
Why? For one thing, trying to destroy Israel - or "The
Zionist Entity" as their textbooks call it -- for the
last fifty years has allowed the rulers of Arab
countries to divert the attention of their own people
away from the
fact that they're the blue-ribbon most illiterate,
poorest, and tribally backward on God's Earth, and if
you've ever been around God's Earth . . .
you know that's really saying something.
It makes me roll my eyes every time one of our pundits
waxes poetic about the great history and culture of
the Muslim Midleast. Unless I'm missing something, the
Arabs haven't given anything to the world since
Algebra,
and, by the way, thanks a hell of a lot for that one.
Chew this around & spit it out: 500 million Arabs; 5
million Jews. Think of all the Arab countries as a
football field, and Israel as a pack of matches
sitting in the middle of it. And now these same folks
swear that, if Israel gives them half of that pack of
matches, everyone will be pals..
Really? Wow, what neat news. Hey, but what about the
string of wars to obliterate the tiny country and the
constant din of rabid blood oaths to drive every Jew
into the sea? Oh, that? We were just kidding.
My friend Kevin Rooney made a gorgeous point the other
day: Just reverse
the Numbers. Imagine 500 million Jews and 5 million
Arabs. I was stunned at the simple brilliance of it .
Can anyone picture the Jews strapping belts of razor
blades and dynamite to themselves? Of course not.
Or marshaling every fiber and force at their disposal
for generations to drive a tiny Arab State into the
sea? Nonsense. Or dancing for joy at the murder of
innocents? Impossible. Or spreading and believing
horrible lies about the Arabs baking their bread with
the blood of children? Disgusting.
No, as you know, left to themselves in a world of
peace, the worst Jews would ever do to people is
debate them to death.
Mr. Bush, God bless him, is walking a tightrope. I
understand that, with vital operations in Iraq and
others, it's in our interest, as Americans, to try to
stabilize our Arab allies as much as possible, and,
after all, that can't be much harder than stabilizing
a roomful of super models who've just had their drugs
taken away.
However, in any big-picture strategy, there's always a
danger of losing moral weight. We've already lost
some. After September 11th, our president told us and
the world he was going to root out all terrorists and
the countries that supported them. Beautiful. Then the
Israelis, after months and months of having the
equivalent of an Oklahoma City every week (and then
every day), start to do the same thing we did, and we
tell them to show restraint.
If America were being attacked with an Oklahoma City
every day, we would all very shortly be screaming for
the administration to just be done with it and kill
everything south of the Mediterranean and east of the
Jordan .
Please feel free to pass this along to your friends.
Walk in peace! Be Happy! Have a wonderful life!
