Will they never learn ?

It is much more cost effective to kill palestinians with bullets fired by ground troops. I expect the Israeli nazi thugs are saving their expensive US supplied munitions in case they have to deal with a real opponent who can actually do them some harm.

They can do whatever they feel like. It is their bravery against people who do not have anything. And UNO and the rest of the world....................I rather leave that aside.

What a sorry state - and this because of senseless, pathetic, futile religion. :o(

[Zacs-Master]

Never knowingly undersold Naomi. I agree tho.

[naomi24]

Hopeless. What utter stupidity. I despair, I really do.

So…. if you had neighbors that constructed numerous hidden tunnels into your home and came, almost at will with the stated purpose (proven over and over) of killing you, your children, your family and destroying your home and during other times firing hundreds of rounds of Russian and/or Iranian supplied rockets with one purpose only, to kill, maim and destroy, that'd be Ok with ya'll? Unique concept…

Strange, isn't it that finally even the UN has reported that Hamas has hidden hundreds of rounds of rockets in the UN provided and run schools in Gaza? Other than teachers, I'd expect the only other occupants of said schools are children… wonderful, caring people, Hamas.

Israel agrees to a Hamas proposed "humanitarian cease-fire" and within hours attacks Israel with another barrage of rockets and tunnel infiltrators armed to the teeth...

Clanad if people from another country kicked you and your family out of your house and land and let other people from other countries build new homes on your land you would just go and stay silent

> when you add it all up
the tears and the marrowbone
there's an ounce of gold
and an ounce of pride in each ledger
and the germans kill the jews
and the jews kill the arabs
and the arabs kill the hostages
and that is the news
and is it any wonder that the monkey's confused

Didn't the Americans use the term, 'Manifest Destiny', to mask their own genocide of the native people in the land they were occupying? They and the Zionists are cut from the same cloth.

[Clanad]

Hmmm… Balfour rings a bell with me… doesn't it you? Any historian will point to the Declaration as entirely British… so, any criticism of the end result must be addressed by who?

In 2005 Israel removed hundreds of Jewish settlers from the Gaza strip and returned the land to the Palestinians… did the attacks from Gaza diminish? Of course not, silly of me to ask…

Sorry to inform you Sandy, that a large part of what later became the U.S. of A. was settled by the English. Other huge parts that were claimed and settled dispersing the Natives were all European… long before the U.S. existed

Clanad they could see the problems so that is why britain abstained from the vote

One seldom hears of the thousands of Israeli citizens (men and women) who are interned for refusing to accept national service/conscription.

"Genocide of the native people in the land they were occupying?"...Absolutely bloody amazing that the British could amass an empire without lowering themselves to that strategy:)

[stuey]

Not so much "genocide" I suppose, but a rather significant depletion of the "native people".

Clanad, we know what’s happening – no one is disputing that – but your agenda isn’t founded upon ethics or upon the principle of justice – it arises solely from your determined allegiance to religion. This goes far beyond the Balfour Declaration, which although no doubt formulated with the best intentions, was in my opinion utterly misguided. It has created far more problems than it's solved. But forget the politics – that’s not what it’s really all about. The whole sorry situation emanates from a superstitious legend kept alive by God’s allegedly chosen people who harbour an eternal belief in their exceptional status, and a never-ending ambition to fulfil what they believe to be an ancient prophecy – to return to the allegedly Promised Land. Had that alleged promise never been recorded, Jews would still have migrated to countries throughout the world, but instead of making the toast ‘Next year in Jerusalem’ at every opportunity, they would have settled, integrated with their neighbours, and lived their lives in relative peace - and hence the Palestinians would have lived their lives in relative peace. In place of that, we have this – a problem without solution that is causing endless pain, death, destruction and turmoil. So much for religion.

Incidentally, I don’t know if you’ve been to Israel, but it’s a very sad place.

Terrific post Naomi, totally agree.
