Things have come to a pretty pass,
Our romance is growing flat,
For you like this and the other
While I go for this and that.
Goodness knows what the end will be,
Oh, I don't know where I'm at...
It looks as if we two will never be one,
Something must be done.
You say eether and I say eyether,
You say neether and I say nyther,
Eether, eyether, neether, nyther,
Let's call the whole thing off!
You like potato and I like potahto,
You like tomato and I like tomahto,
Potato, potahto, tomato, tomahto!
Let's call the whole thing off!
Louis Armstrong, Let's Call The Whole Thing Off
Israel and the Palestinian Authority don't see eye to eye on many things these days:
- Abbas and the Palestinian Authority refuses to accept Israel's right to exist
- Abbas and the Palestinian Authority refuse to accept that Palestinian attacks that kill Israelis--including suicide bombings against civilians--are terror.
- Abbas and the PA refuses to recognize Israel's fight against Palestinian terror as self-defense.
- The PA refuses to refer to Israel's Arab citizens as 'Israeli Arabs' or 'Arab Israelis'.
According to the Palestinian Authority, killing unarmed Israeli civilians is perfectly legal:
| Israeli term | Palestinian Arab term |
| (Palestinian) Terror | Resistance |
| (Palestinian) Terrorist | Resistance member |
| Suicide (bombing) operations | Martyrdom-seeking operations |
| Palestinian violence | Legitimate resistance |
| Person who was killed | Martyr (Shahid) |
| reciprocal violence | Resistance response |
According to the Palestinian Authority, any act of Israeli defense on behalf of unarmed civilians is an act of war:
| Israeli term | Palestinian Arab term |
| Israeli Minister of Defense | Israeli Minister of War |
| IDF - Israeli Defense Forces | Israeli occupation forces |
| Separation fence | Racist separation fence |
According to the Palestinian Authority, there is no 3,000 years of Jewish history binding Jews to the Land of Israel:
| Israeli term | Palestinian Arab term |
| Star of David | Six-pointed star |
| Wailing (Western) Wall | Al-Buraq Wall |
| Temple Mount | Noble Sanctuary of Jerusalem |
| The Promised Land | The Land of Palestine |
| Judea and Samaria (Biblical terms) | The occupied West Bank |
Unfortunately, these week it was hammered home that not every Arab killed is Shaheed, a martyr. When terrorists insist on firing rockets on Israeli civilians populated areas in Gaza, children get hurt--and killed:
What that happens, a person who is killed is no longer a Shaheed, but a victim of her own people's terrorism
