16. Sheesh...
I love how the Jews are attacked for making efforts to protect themselves while ignoring the fundamental problem - the Palestinian charter calls for the destruction of Israel. Their children are taught to hate Jews and are taught to die while killing them.

This conflict has nothing to do with land, an independant state, blah blah blah.

It's all about Israel's right to exist. In the 1940's, nobody would take the jews in and millions fo them were exterminated. So, they created their own state in 1947 and the very next day, were attacked by 6 different countries.

Since then, they've been either expelled or killed in every surrounding country. Want to talk about apartheid? Find a jew in an arab country.

The Pals were expelled from Jordan for blowing up Jordanian mommies and their babies. The Pals are kept out of Israel for blowing up Jewish mommies and their babies. You think maybe there's a message here?

And they keep yelling about an occupation. Occupied by who? The land they squatted on was owned by Jordan and Egypt - not Israel. The Pals allowed armies to amass on their borders to attack Israel (before all this "occupation" nonsense) before the 6 day war prevented that attack. Jordan and Eygpt took back 80% of that land. Where's the outrage there?

The point is, it's easy to find fault with Israel fighting the impossible fight. Everybody loves the underdog, so the Palestinians - never ones to miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity - take advantage of people's good nature to exploit that.

But what we end up with, is everybody feeling sorry for the guy that murdered both his parents because the poor guy's an orphan.

When the Palestinians quit training their children to become Martyrs, start teaching the existence of Israel in their school books (which they don't), and stop strapping explosives with screws and nails inside (because they inflict the most damage) so they can murder innocent Jews, the Israelis need to take more proactive actions. Until then, they need to defend themselves from the people trying to destroy them simply because they are Jews.

And by the way, the International Policy Institute for Counter-Terrorism has scientific PROOF that 95% of Palestinian "innocents" killed by Israel are male. It's statistically impossible to randomly kill people at that rate. Israel does it's best, under the circumstances, to target combatants. That is proven.

I hate Bush, repugs, and all that crap as much as everyone here. But I love the truth and many people debating this subject don't know it. The Pals are far more guilty and have shown that historically, all they know is violence.

Want to stop the violence and get rid of walls? Quit blowing up busses...
