you forgot to show the part where the israelis kocked down or destroyed all the buildings that that they were abandoning prior to leaving which leaves this question why didn't they remove the synagogue or were they usiing it as future propaganda tool

Believe it or not, it is not the people. The people would rather not see them in the country. The governments policies let them in and let them do as they please.

Actually you are wrong, some where the traditional head wear and some wear turbins. I have seen many Iraqis when I was there who wore turbins, and as a matter of fact Bin Laden sometimes wheres a turbin in his videos and pics.

Les, Rag head is NOT a racist term. Please look it up in the Webster Dictionary or some Collegiate Dictionary. Rag head is simple slang for Headgear.

Les, Rag head is NOT a racist term.
Yes it is, when u use it in the context u used it in...

I myself have used the term many times before, but not here... And I would expect anyone else here to act like myself and refrain from using derogatory slang terms to define a certain race of peoples....

Raghead
Wikipedia :
Raghead is an ethnic slur generally denigrating a male who wears a type of clothing on the head, usually Arab, Pashtun, Middle Eastern or South Asian descent.

Following from the September 11, 2001 attacks where Osama bin Laden was identified as the Al Qaeda leader behind the plot, this slur has increasingly meant Arabs and Muslims in general.

Occasionally the term can be manipulated to provide variance, such as "Ragger" or "Ragi Omah" an Asian news presenter for the BBC.

Sikhs (who wear turbans) are particularly offended at being lumped together with Islamic identified with terrorism.

Sikhs have previously been referred to as "towelheads" in a teasingly affectionate manner by John Belushi's Second City comedy troupe in the early seventies and elsewhere.

Another ethnic slur by which designates a Muslim is a "ragtop"

Women, Muslim or otherwise, are not generally included in the designation.

Conservative commentator Ann Coulter is known to use this racist term to describe Arabs.

Its a racist term and I would appreciate it if ALL racist terms stay off this forum.....

Les, it is a racist term in your opinion. However, in order to stay within any guidelines of this site, I will not post that term again. One thing that should be noticed, is the language that you and some others often use here as well.

Blah blah blah, it aint about language and curse words.... Its about offensive racist terms, like the one u used.... I could give a **** about cuss words, but racist slang terms dont belong here, and thats the end of it....

Furthermore, it is not a racist term in MY opinion, but across the ENTIRE globe, and if ur too ignorant to see that, then u are a racist....

Remember, I said above that I have used the term before, and seeing how I was in combat on numerous occasions with them, I had every right to call them that....

BUT NOT HERE!!!!
