  1. Peace with the Zionists? LOL. The mullahs won't be happy. They want to fight those gay-loving secular Israelis till Isa descends and kills Dajjal as prophecised. I hope he'll send more of our youth to be trained by Fatah and Hamas propaganda experts so that they'll come home and spread anti-Semitism and bomb buses.

    Islamist Dhivehistanis want a one state solution where Israel is wiped off the map - the Western Wall, the Church of the Nativity, the Cave of the Patriarchs and other infidel sites will be razed to the ground and religion will be for Allah only. Just like in pure Dhivehistan. We don't want to be secular like Palestine or to visit churches. The world needs should convert to Islam or die.
