tbrown 26 #39 March 10, 2008 The thing that really bugs me deeply about the "poor folks" in Gaza is the way they celebrate over these events. The fuckers were out dancing and partying in the streets, into the night, over the killing of these students. Hamas was also standing out in traffic, passing out candies to celebrate a suicide bomber who'd blown up in an israeli marketplace. Then we have to see this boo-hoo propoganda about how miserable they all are in the Gaza dialysis clinic. Fuck these people, they voted for Hamas. Kill 'em all.

Israel will suddenly remember where its border is and allow international troops to come in and help secure it. Then Israel will welcome the negotiation of a viable two state solution. But apparently the Israeli government is more afraid of losing a radical wing than it is interested in negotiating for peace. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7286264.stm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darius11 12 #42 March 10, 2008 Unfortunately most don’t see the Israel government for the racist regime that it is. The Israelis are using the holocaust sympathy that they rightfully deserve to implement the same pain on another group, and they have been doing it for more then 50 years. I believe another poster said it best awhile back. The only people who think Israel has a leg to stand on are Jews (they are allowing there sense camaraderie over power there sense of ethics), Americans (they simply don’t understand how one sided there media is on this issue), and idiots (the sheep that follows what the news tells them to follow). The facts are there.I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not." - Kurt Cobain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lifes a bitch when you keep attacking a people you hate and they keep kicking your ass. That is the history of the Palistinian people since before Israel was even a state. They have vowed to destroy the state of Israel.. and unfortunately for them... the Israelis have not rolled over and let them win. SOOO they and their Arab surrogates attacked again.. and lost some more ground... and did it again.. several times. The solution is simple dont attack people... especially ones who have specialized in beating you. The palistinians lob rockets across the boarder daily... the Israilis TRY very very hard to target ONLY the Hamas and Hezbollah fighters who DELIBERATLY hide behind their civilians I highlighted that for those of you who refuse to see what the people you are championing do. Your boys target civilians indiscriminately.to them.. a dead jew is a good jew.. and time for celebration.. and keep lobbing rockets..When Israel attacks Hamas gunmen.. to Israelis celebrate with huge parades????? Hell If you want parity.. perhaps Israel should just launch UNTARGETED rocket attacks into anyplace that fires a rocket at THEIR cities..Then yall could whine in a reality based scenario of how the evil Jews are targeting civilians.

jakee 1,611 #45 March 10, 2008 I'm really not sure how you can make a methodology argument in favour of the side which has killed several times more civilians and uses tactics like cluster bombing and anti-personnel landmining civilian villages and farms. The Israelis are not blameless. Yes, Hamas and Hezbollah use some despicable tactics, yes they are responsible for a lot of needless agression but you simply cannot paint the state of Israel as a whiter than white innocent victim.Do you want to have an ideagasm?

How is it that the Arab brothers in the surrounding countries don't lift a hand to actually lift this group of people out of the mess? They only seem to help to keep the mess stirred up. These people are living on the same peice of desert as the Jews, yet, they never seem to get a grip on life. Drill a well, plant a garden, feed your family and lose the hate. They all seem so eat up with anger that they can't even function. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 3,132 #50 March 10, 2008 >How is it that the Arab brothers in the surrounding countries don't lift >a hand to actually lift this group of people out of the mess? Because then they'd be targeted as well. We'd probably call them 'foreign fighters' and justify their killing. > Drill a well, plant a garden, feed your family and lose the hate. Yep. If both sides could do that, then this problem would end. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
