Pearls before swine.

Serves the shits right.

"Took over"? Wasn't this one of the more violently looted bits?

Ace, you're way too sanguine about this. If Mugabe wanted to hire persecuted and chased-off white farmers as "consultants" for a pittance on their own stolen land, you'd probably have the same reaction I do now:

Fuck 'em.

I thought I read that the barbarians basically looted and destroyed the greenhouses when the Israelis pulled out.

Jim in Chicago, you read correctly. See The Saga of The Greenhouses.

The bloodthirsty Palestinian mob never learned you should pillage before you burn. No doubt (no doubt) when their agricultural economy suffers they'll blame the Jews for sabotaging it...

That's not really true. There was looting of supplies for the first couple of days but the idea that the greenhouses were completely trashed was just something one blog repeated to another. They mostly have them running now, as the link here suggests, and are shipping vegetables into Israel.

Palestinians need to grow a sense of intollerance to murder and mahem before trying to produce greenhouse broccoli.

Tiny PLO bulb-eating voles suicide-bombed the project to stop their dirty jew theft of Palestinian soil.

This is pure recollection, and vaguely remembered, but isn't the LARGEST supplier of palestinian food aid. . . .Israel? at least percapita?

Also, the Palestinians don't really need help on how to promote plant life, all they have to do is make sure that they position their children, begging for martyrdom within a large. . .cistern, or container of some sort, have them blow themselves to bits, then bury those bits in any field that collects sunlight and water.

"Palestinian Martyrs, The perfect fertilizer, successful since Armenius's pyric victory." I Think I read a new ad campaign!

Exact same thing happened when Mugabe kicked white farmers off their land and gave it to the locals; a sudden and mysterious dropoff in crop yield (down to about 0.0% productivity in fact).

The nimrods want the farm but are too lazy to teach themselves to run it and too fractious to pull together and make it happen even if they did get the concept.

Let 'em eat bombs; I hear they're at least good at making those.

It might have been more of a gesture of cooperation had they asked Israel directly to help them.

Fater kicking them out the palastinians want help from the isrealy farmers that what happens when you become too interested in taking land and you turn out to be a greenhouse greenhorn

Anita Tucker, an expelled Gaza resident and one of the pioneer farmers of Gush Katif, told WND, "I am not at all surprised the Palestinians are failing. When they worked in our greenhouses they needed to be monitored closely. Many didn't understand certain things, like not using different kinds of chemicals. Plus when we were in Gaza, our efforts were blessed by God."

you turn out to be a greenhouse greenhorn

*single tear runs slowly down lauraw's cheek*

Many didn't understand certain things, like not using different kinds of chemicals.

I figured they were experts with fertilizer...

Hamas actually moved in, according to news reports, to protect the greenhouses after the initial looting. I don't think Israel is any kind of major supplier of financial assistance to the PA, in food or anything else, other than it periodically remitting a proportion of taxes (probably a shrinking amount) levied from Palestinians. One of the reasons that Israel has refrained from dismantling the PA in the past has been that Israel did not want to take back direct responsibility for the welfare of the Palestinian population.

*** Greenhouse Swarm!!!! ***

greenhouse greenhorn

stands, clapping, slowly at first, then faster, louder

It's the old rotten apple syndrome.

I told you guys, Spurwing should be the next U.S. President. He can stay on message no matter what the opposition party may throw at him. His message is short, direct, and uncomplicated, which every good propagandist from Geobbels to Madison Avenue's finest can tell you is the only way to reach the masses.

He's a genius, people. Genius.

And if you'd ever seen the fruits and veggies coming from the Gaza greenhouses, you would know that indeed, they were blessed by God.

At first, I thought this had something to do with Spurwing. lol!
