		<description>Living in Florida there was an urgent need of shredder in the office so I called up the saleman who told me there was No sales tax on purchases delivered out of California! 10 year warranty on cutting heads &amp; 1 year warranty on mechanical parts (parts only)!</description>

		<description>The saleman told me from whom I bought the shredder. All  office shredders roll on casters for convenient sharing among offices. Every  shredder model has a 10-year warranty on cutting heads and can take staples and paper clips which saves office stationary too.</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s what I just received from a fellow correspondent. I&#039;m still working on my response. 
&quot; I use phraseology like &quot;savage Jewish invasion&quot; in reaction to the overwhelming pro-Zionist bias in American news media. I realize that the bias goes far deeper that just the media; it&#039;s cultural. This nation was founded on a Judeo-Christian ethic. We are predominantly Christian. The bedrock of the Christian faith is the Bible, both Old and New Testament. If one accepts the Old Testament as truth, one accepts that the Jews are God&#039;s chosen people. As such, the actions of the Jewish nation, i.e. Israel, are favored by God and not to be questioned. The Old Testament advances the view that when Jewish military aggression was successful, God was with them. When they were defeated, God was punishing them. The right of other peoples to exist, have possessions and live in peace is never considered. Remember the &quot;Promised Land?&quot; When they got there, it was occupied.
 
Please spare me invective about my being an anti-Semite. I have nothing against Jews or the Jewish religion, per se. After all, Christianity is fundamentally a Jewish denomination. What I object to is any group of people who think their prerogatives supersede the rights of others.&quot;</description>

		<description>I see Israel has declared a cease fire despite rockets still being fired from Gaza. Isn&#039;t that more like a surrender?

What&#039;s next, a meeting at Camp David with President Obama? Will Noble Prizes follow for Hamas leaders and the Benedict Arnolds who govern Israel?</description>

		<description>Essential vdh

ET, 

The irony is that B. Hussein Obama&#039;s ideas are a regurgitation of failed social policies that have already eliminated millions and millions of human beings from this earth. 

Evidently they don&#039;t teach history at Harvard.  Only History Studies that allow you to pick and chose what you want to study or conclude. 

A &quot;share the wealth&quot; government in the past (real history) ment stealing from and killing those that had the &quot;wealth&quot;. 

When people believe you can get something for nothing and they can vote for it including ballet box stuffing within the inner cities and develop governmental policy based on it to centralize power using fear and ignorance---you got to know it is the beginning of the end game. 

Of course this is not new starting with the largest failures within the Iron Curtain countries run by communists. Nazism was of course socialist and anti capital.  

Communist and Nazi socialism translated into murdering population classes, in Russia, land owners and small farmers, in Germany  Jews and others classified as less than humans. I won&#039;t mention Cambodia/Indochina it didn&#039;t happen after all it was not reported in the MSM.(I need to drop my own sarcasm). 

Lose the sarcasm and just strap it on. If you don&#039;t have any hard skills you had better develop them.  It is no longer funny. 

It&#039;s time to check your rear end when a President of the US tells you that you are a victim and big brother government will take care of you wither you like it or not.</description>

		<description>Wait, wait, wait a minute - Barack Obama said that there are &quot;People who are intent on blowing us up&quot;???

Pardon my disbelief drenched in sarcasm, but how can this be? We have been told, ad infinitum, by our intellectual and media betters, that there is no terrorism threat, it&#039;s just a conspiracy by Bush/Cheney to steer military contracts to Halliburton, Islam is a religion of peace, the rioters in France and elsewhere share no common trait except &quot;Youth&quot; and &quot;Disenfranchisement&quot; - you get the idea.

What does the Left have to say about this rather amazing admission of Obama&#039;s? I can&#039;t get over it! Where&#039;s Michael Moore, and what&#039;s his take? 

(I could do more sarcasm, but it&#039;s rather depressing.)</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;“Day of Death” and “Day of Punishment”—with all the bizarre use of the vocative (“O Israel, you will see your rivers of blood” or “O Olmert, we will cut your head off!”&lt;/i&gt;

If anyone is truly interested in learning about the Palestinian &quot;catastrophe&quot; (&quot;Nakba&quot;) of 1948-1949, all they have to do is notice that Arabs were shouting basically the same things then as now. &quot;Drown the Jews in the sea!&quot; &quot;Palestine from the River to the Sea!&quot; &quot;We will slaughter them!&quot; Etc.

Or if one wants to learn about what really happened in May-June 1967.

Essentially: the perfidy of the Jews is that they fight back when they&#039;re not supposed to. 

Essentially: when Arabs try to slaughter you, you&#039;re not supposed to defend yourself (then as now); and if you do, you&#039;re a bestial aggressor deserving to be slaughtered. You&#039;ve brought it upon yourself.

And if the result is a Palestinian Nakba, or a Egyptian-Syrian-Jordanian drubbing, it must be the fault of the aggressive, demonic Jews.

And if there&#039;s no peace, it&#039;s the Jews fault because the Jews haven&#039;t tried hard enough to live with their neighbors, or haven&#039;t given back enough territory, or don&#039;t trust (for some reason) their Arab partners in peace.

Same now as it ever was.</description>

		<description>Jack Marcotte:

Cause and effect?  How passe.  Launching thousands of missiles at your neighbor doesn&#039;t cause wars.  Evil Jews cause wars.  They should be exterminated, the sons of apes and dogs as the hadith says. Qassam rockets launched at Israeli civilians are just like fireworks on the 4th of July, a political expression formulated by freedom fighters, democratically elected ones no less who love to show their firm grasp of the moral dimension of government of the people, by the people blah blah blah, by executing their political adversaries. That, and perennial war with the Jews, is a cause they can believe in. And the effect on the conscience of the West? Nil, at best.

Odd that most military conflicts in the past 50 years lacked a clear dichotomy between the opposing sides, yet when now presented with such a situation so many Americans are having a hard time discerning the good guys from the bad. Regardless anyone&#039;s feelings towards Israel (and mine are not based on religion), we could apply the hostage scenario approach to figuring out who to support in this war. We don&#039;t usually recommend acceding to the demands of terrorists who take hostages, for fear of perpetuating this violent and criminal behavior. Hamas holds their own civilian population hostage to their war aims (i.e., their PR campaign). Why would anyone suggest Israel agree to their demands? My humble advice to the Israelis:  Free the Palestinians. Destroy Hamas.</description>

		<description>Two points regarding a couple of comments:  First, the British administration of Cyprus began in 1878, it was formally annexed in 1914, it became independent in 1960, and 3/4 of it population was (and is) Greek.   Second, the location of an American&#039;s birth is irrelevant if his mother is an American.</description>
