Seems Israel is a live cancer - brutally intent on eliminating any Palestinian resistance to their goal of 'posessing' a 'homeland'. Lacking weapons with which to defend themselves, Palestinians have been blowing themselves up in public places and/or throwing rocks and bottles at armored Israelite soldiers and their vehicles. Many Palestinian settlements have been ringed with barbed wire by the Israelis in the name of 'self-defense'. Palestinians have been suffering for sure. Israel has been quite successful in its brutal campaign so far - meeting Palestinian rocks and suicide bombers with missiles and bulldozers. Arafat is helpless to do anything and everyone knows it. The real Palestinian leaders have been assasinated by the Mossad over the past 20 years or so. Of course, all this with the blessing of 3 billion dollar grants from the United States each year. And all of course in the name of defending a friendly state from terrorist factions. In 1948, when Roosevelt offered the Jews a large parcel of land to settle in Wyoming or in Baja California (their choice), they should have taken it - it would have prevented the insanity going on there now. In short, no one is right. The question should be 'Who has been more brutal?' Israel would win hands down.

Well, I don't want to get into the biblical aspect of anything, but,
what goes around comes around.
When the Israelites first hit Cannan they tried to wipe out the entire country. No wonder they have a hard time of it.
I have no sides in the Palestinian issue, but I do respect the Israelis as soldiers. They are bad news, any way you cut it.

Israel has certainly been the more brutal of the two. Shatilla Camp back in 1985-6 was a stark reminder of that fact. So long as the Israelis continue the way they're going now, they will continue to find themselves surrounded by enemies. |
My type?
I keep telling you folks I am a peace-loving man.
And I re-state my earlier contention that the Palestinians could have their State if they would take control of the radicals, put them in jail and stop bombing children on busses.
World pressure is intense on Israel. If they could get a break from those attacks, they would give the Palestinians what they want.
Think about it. It is in their interests economically to have a thriving trade with the Palestinians.
But would you negotiate with somebody that had just murdered your little girl?
