There are no Palestinians"
By Larry Miller
The Weekly Standard | April 21, 2003
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.
Don't thank me. I'm a giver. 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 war, Gaza was owned by Egypt, and there were no "Palestinians" then, and the West Bank was owned by Jordan, and there were no "Palestinians" then. 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" any more 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 Mideast. 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 and spit it out: Five hundred million Arabs; five 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 five hundred million Jews and five 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 coming up against 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 supermodels 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 11 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. (Hey, wait a minute, that's actually not such a bad idea. . . .ooh, that is, what a horrible thought, yeah, horrible. . . .)

I know your daughter in law had a problem with her shotgun, finding it a bit too long I believe she said?....Well I found some material she might be interested in...
The first one is from the Trap Shooters Association....It was in a discussion forum addressing a new shooter....
A general "Rule of Thumb" is that your thumb should be about 3/4" to 1.5" from your nose when you have the gun mounted. It sounds like you are a young person and likely the gun is too long.
Gun fit is probably one of the most important things in being able to shoot successfully. If your stock is too long as I indicated above you can probably find a used model 12 stock that has already been shortened and may even have all the adjust-ables installed.
Rollin Oswald is a frequent poster to this site and he has a booklet on gun fitting that would likely be a wise investment for you. He usually posts to a thread that asks about gun fit.
The gun should fit you so that when you are standing straight and your eyes are level the gun comes to your eye and fits into your shoulder pocket. Stand in front of a mirror and get into a comfortable shooting stance. Close your eyes and mount the gun to your shoulder and set yourself up as if you were going to call for a target. Open your eyes and your eyes should be level and the barrel should be 90 degrees to your eyes and the beads should be properly aligned with your eye.
Bill Malcolm
Same site...
have found through my wife that women and children are often not comfortable with pump guns and autoloaders. The space the action takes up puts the forearm and the center of gravity too far forward for them. On a break open gun the distance from the stock to the chamber is minimal (unlike autos and pumps). The extra 3" can really make a difference. Obviously, alot of women do shoot autoloaders. I can tell you my wife believes my 5 3/4 pound is TOO HEAVY to shoot but that an 8+ pound TM1 feels great. Pick up a few single shots or even double barrel break action guns to see if they feel better. Chuck
And from the IHEA...
By Ed Augustine, Kansas Volunteer Instructor and PastIHEA Instructor Board Representative
Understanding How to Fit the Gun to the ShooterMost store-purchased "off-the-shelf" guns come with a 14 1/4 inch trigger pull,or a measurement from the center of the trigger to the middle of the butt placeon the stock. That's great if you are a 165 pound adult male, but if you are small-er it is not going to be comfortable and will not result in success for the shooter.A good recommendation, for "newbees" or women or girls of smaller stature,would be guns that have been shortened to 12, 12 1/2 or 13 inches. This puts the facein the proper place on the stock, which means that the form will be more com-fortable with better target visibility. Suggestion: a twelve gauge semi-automatic, such as a Remington 1100 or 1187. They are not really fancy and will do about anything you want to do, eitherfor recreational shooting or hunting...
He goes on to describe about stance etc...but I thought she might find the articles helpful as to the length of the shotgun...

If you haunting my nightmares with your stupidity qualifies as "thinking about you" I guess I'm guilty as charged.0
