25. nope.....
Edited on Sat Feb-10-07 12:27 PM by pelsar
i'm part of the israeli population that has zero trust in the palestinian culture and population at this point.....I and many like me see the palestinians using the intls to further their goals, with their "pseudo non violence"... goals which include both violent and non violent methods.

the message of "non violence demonstration' if that is the goal of the intls has not taken hold amongst the general palestinian population


When the non violent "massive protests" actually take hold within the palestenians, and we see the palestinians doing the protesting (as we did during intifada I), a change in opinon of mine and many others like me will come about. For that would represent a general change in not just method but of culture within the palestinians...that there are other ways beside violence to make change....and that the celebration of death and the suicide bomber is a thing of the past.

until that time, i wont be joining any "pseudo non violent palestinain/intl protest" ....
