Funny, I don't recall all the Israelis who are strapping bombs to themselves and heading to Palestinian areas. I don't recall Israelis indiscriminately firing rockets into Palestinian residential areas. I don't recall Israel saying they're going to drive the Palestinians into the sea and wipe them out. I don't recall Israel walking away from the Oslo accords after being given 95% of what they want. And I don't recall Israel saying the Palestinians don't have a right to exist. Of course, I could be wrong.
of course, war is hell, so take these with a grain of salt http://www.ifamericansknew.org/ http://old.btselem.org/statistics/english/Casualties.asp http://unispal.un.org/UNISPAL.NSF/0/BE07C80CDA4579468525734800500272 http://israelipalestinian.procon.org/view.resource.php?resourceID=000639 http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/History/casualtiestotal.html http://www.ifamericansknew.org/stats/children.html http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wor...le-injuries-suffered-by-children-of-Gaza.html http://www.un.org/apps/news/story.asp?NewsID=38255&Cr=Palestin&Cr1#.UFIRi42PWP8 just grabbed these from a simple google search
Are you trying to tell me the Palestinians are suffering? I agree. All they have to do is acknowledge Israel's right to exist, deny the right of return for all descendants from 1947 and live within their current borders and it would be done in a week. It's not Israel that's continuing this war. Thanks for playing, though.
Palestinians are just greedy. They weren't even using that land anyway. Have some personal responsibility, Palestine.
Are they better than we were with our treatment of the American Indian? Here's a guarantee: if the Palestinians would renounce violence, they wouldn't be killed by the Israelis.
pretty sure the american indians were displaced jews according to romney, so there are some interesting parallels there and if we are comparing peoples treatment now, to atrocities that happened hundreds of years years ago, that doesnt say much for our "evolution"
Just last week. The point is what's happening to the Palestinians is unfortunate, but not uncommon in this world. They are a flashpoint because they are being used as a tool by the Arab world to control their street. If they direct their anger toward the Jews or the West, they get to stay in power. If the Arabs wanted to settle the Palestinian problem, it would have been solved decades ago. Instead, many are still technically at war with Israel.
Did that happen without provocation last week in Israel? The snark act is wearing thin. Pretty soon you'll have to bring some actual analysis to the table. My guess is you'll deflect or drop the argument before that happens. It's a good schtick, though.
last week? oh i was referencing children murder stats from the last decade or so until present, and how the palestinians have shown restraint in not taking an eye for an eye guess im not sure what you are talking about, american indians or something?
...or you can stop beating your Zionist drums now and actually present the entire story: [video=youtube;vqBJTBIUtM8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqBJTBIUtM8[/video] ...and then there is this gem, written in 1947 from King Abdullah, that explains the true history of Palestine and allows us to gain a true perspective without the omnipresent Zionist propaganda spin:
i know, we should celebrate this kind of action, just like we did with russia vs afghanistan...oh wait, we armed the terrorists that time
