What a surprise, the US has vetoed yet another UN resolution critical of Israel murdering women and children. This resolution is nothing more than to condemn a war crime. But of course, it is never a war crime if it is committed by the US or Israel.
And then the American Government whinges when the UN doesn't support their calamitous plans to invade of Iraq.
SEND HAMAS LEADERS 'TO PARADISE': ISRAELI DEPUTY PM
Leaders of the Hamas militant movement should be assassinated and moderate Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is "irrelevant,"
Israel's deputy prime minister said Saturday.
Ref. https://www.cbc.ca/story/world/national/200...rael-hamas.html

The comments by Avigdor Lieberman came as the rival Palestinian factions, Hamas and Abbas's Fatah, continued talks on forming a unity government. The leaders of Hamas, which won parliamentary elections in the Palestinian territories last January, should be "sent to paradise," Lieberman told Israel radio, "all of them. On this there should be no compromise." He also called for Israel to ignore international pressure efforts to resume peace negotiations with the Palestinians, and said his country should abandon earlier agreements under the Oslo accords and the "road map" to peace promoted by U.S. President George Bush. |

The unfortunate part is that the number really is 5322 and that is the total number of "people" that have died. No one life is any better or more valuable than the other. There is no right or wrong in this issue. If you were a Jew that had to pick up the arm of one of your buddies that was just blown to bits in a suicide bombing, you would be upset and do so justly. If you were a Palestinian that watched their friend blown away as an unfortunate bystander in a missle attack, you would be upset at the other side...and justly. No one is totally innocent.

Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid: Jimmy Carter In His Own Words
Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter is accusing Israel of creating an apartheid system in the West Bank and Gaza. The charge comes in his new book "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid." We play an address by Carter talking about the Palestine-Israel conflict, the role of the United States and much more. Carter says, "Palestinians are deprived of basic human rights, their land has been occupied, then confiscated, then colonized by the Israeli settlers."

I have to ask... is Jimmy Carter a Palestinian or a secret member of the Hamas? I aks because I do not see how a country could be seen as criminal in deciding what to do with its OWN money.
