six day war, it(Israel) fought with approx. 100 million Arabs and kicked their asses, and ended up with the Gaza strip and the West bank and used these as a buffer zones because of their strategic importance to command the hights so in future conflicts to have the Palistians not be lobbing down missles down at Israel below. Its a security issue. Its interesting to note that when eg. a tank would run out of fuel or a weapon jam they(the Arabs) would throw up their hands so to speak, and say it was Allah will. Like some dumb Christians would do you know in connection with Romans 8:28 theology(and that Scripture is taken out of context). And the point about the 300lb. person doesn`t prove anything either when poor people don`t have enough food to eat, they will eat all kinds of junk food to fill them up, hence the look of weight. Well too long of a story. About Ron Paul. Got this off Ron`s site: http://www.dailypaul.com/214661/chris-ma\\... . 17, 2012 it has the media just ignoring Ron Paul totally. Written on sunday morning in the USA PST time. We are expecting major market-moving news on Monday when the USA markets are closed for holiday. We think the timing was on purpose to prevent markets' upsets. Big bankers have been warned to expect an exit by Greece/default from the Euro Currency and Euroland consortium. They are trying to soften the blow but it could roil all markets very hard.
