6. If Israel did nothing, it wouldn't stop the violence
Edited on Thu Oct-27-05 03:49 PM by IndianaGreen
There are people that won't stop until all of the occupied territories are free. The problem is that what they consider occupied includes the entire State of Israel, and what they consider freedom is a fundamentalist Islamic state in which Palestinian women are forced to live under Sharia law.

Israel has made a lot of mistakes and done some really bad things to the Palestinians, but the Palestinians are not the faultless freedom fighters that some people imagine them to be. There are people on both sides of this conflict that genuinely want peace and abhor the violence that surrounds them. They need our support!
