Wow! Where did that come from Stan? Never claimed that im smarter than anyone. If this is a compliment, im flattered.
Interested parties in the mid-east process are playing politics ignoring rationale, im just expressing a pragmatic opinion. |

It is in no way pragmatic. Pragmatic means practical. Moving people around as per your plan just to get the contiguous territory that you hold in such high esteem is in way practical.

I know what pragmatic means, and i meant just that. Not only is it geographically practical, it is also practical in terms of lasting peace (which is the aorta of my arguement). |

What you are offering are pragmatic ends with no pragmatic means to get there. Thus, not so pragmatic after all. |

It would be much more pragmatic to just give everyone a schwarma. I mean, I get really happy when I get one, imagine if everybody got one. That is the true way to peace in the Middle East. Schwarmas. You heathens just never thought of it.

You probably heard that from the dissidents. They will not be a nuisance for much longer, don't worry.  |
