I'm sorry David, I got distracted by the You Tube videos listed as those related to the one you gave. Most of them were on foot fetish and toe kissing. Some of them had porno music, and naughty girls kissing feet.

That's You Tube for you, it can be unpredictable.

Oh, the west Bank. God Bless them.

I honestly hope they are happier now with their new faith.

Hi Saint :) yes..I noticed those silly side shows too... I was going to look at one of them because it looked like a huge 'grub' or something, then when I looked closer I saw it was a 'foot' so didn't go further :)

Not only is it 'youtube' but its also life eh ? How many 'well decorated distractions' are there which try to deflect us from the best, and most worthwhile things in life.

I guess one tragedy of this story is the violence which ensued.... this dear woman has been firebombed 4 times... its like Hindu Zealots firebombing Mother Theresa because she was 'converting people with gifts' kind of thing.

I'm kinda waiting for the poster who says "HAH! look at her....she is 'buying' conversions with material stuff... they are not real, just claiming conversion to get money and food".... and given the experience of my own mission in China, this is probably unavoidable to a degree and where we coined the term 'Rice Christians')... BUT.. and its an important but, the work being done by Karen is not 'conditional' on conversion, it IS conditional only in the sense that a bit of christian literature will accompany any gift. The recipient can simply chuck it in the bin if they like and it will not mean they don't receive further help.

If anything, I suggest any conversion in that environment would be most sincere.. and not food related, why ? because one man, a father of 8 who did convert, stood his ground and was repeatedly threatened and finally killed.

Jesus said
18 "If the people of this world hate you, just remember that they hated me first. 19 If you belonged to the world, its people would love you."

The same mentality which stirred up a crowd to 'get rid of' Jesus, is at work against Karen.

Buddy Little mate.
I thought you would never ask.
I except- Where and when?

The 11th hour of the 11th day, of the 9th month...Parliament house Melbourne :)

But that is a demo against *this* (or its embryo form)

This is a vid produced by Hezbollah..NOT some Islamic hate site.

If this does not strike terror and concern into Australian Jews and non Muslims... little ever will, except the feeling of blood as their throat is cut when its too late.

But for me... I have compassion and concern for animals, but more for people... I worry far more about the human targets of that video, than I do about animals.. but if you point out specific issues, as I've done before, I will weigh it up and seek to address it as best I can with a letter. (as I've already done)

Negative passion eh?

You're right. You are an irritating little twot who uses a Christian ethic like a battering ram.

Over to you.

Boaz, you are paranoid.

>>a demo against [this video] (or its embryo form)... if this does not strike terror and concern into Australian Jews and non Muslims... little ever will, except the feeling of blood as their throat is cut when its too late<<

I don't know what you saw, Boaz, but I saw a video that encourages aggression against Israel.

We are not in Israel, or in the vicinity of Israel. We do not share their politics, their borders, their nuclear warheads or their army. We are not a threat to Palestinians. We do not occupy any land that the Palestinians believe is theirs.

In short, we are not even remotely the target of the violence underpinning this video.

Unless you believe that those shots of marching armies are precursors of what we might see in Cronulla, I fail to see its relevance to "Australian Jews and non Muslims", let alone see why these good people should feel terrified by it.

Yes, it is unpleasant to watch. Yes, it gives you a very clear idea of how unpopular is Israel to militant Palestinians.

But the only reason you can possibly have for introducing it here is to run it as an analogue of your "the mozzies are coming, the mozzies are coming" campaign.

Which is, I'm afraid, fundamentally dishonest of you.
