I seriously don't understand your thinking - in fact, it scare the hell out of me. Please ponder the vacuous logic behind your statement. It invariably has you supporting terrorist groups around the world who are murdering innocents to acquire land, power or prestige, simply because they are underdogs. <I>It's not about the numbers - it's about the intent.</I><BR/><BR/>The Palestinians in the Gaza Strip know why Israel is attacking them. They've watched the terrorist gang they put into power to protect them loft rockets into Israel daily - before, during and after the truce. I would never put my family is such as position as to sacrifice them to an enemy I know can easily obliterate them. I would be one of the Arabs living in Israel, working to feed them rather than raise them to hate and kill. My focus would be on my children's safety. Look at the difference between the two cultures. Read what they have to say! How they educate their children!<BR/><BR/>Within Israel there are parties for peace and even the noxious notion of trading land for peace - but you'll find none of the same in the Palestinian territories. Why? Because to announce that publicly would have you executed as an Israeli sympathizer. You want to join the peace movement? Then support the one country that has already shown a willingness to have it.Shanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08728409097850907265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244044300216345080.post-70440354946746954022008-12-29T12:33:00.000+00:002008-12-29T12:33:00.000+00:00Shane, aren't the Palestine people allowed to defe...Shane, aren't the Palestine people allowed to defend themselves?<BR/><BR/>Firing rockets into civilians is wrong whoever is doing it. But look at who's actually doing the dying. Nine Israelis against 1,400 Palestinians. Home made rockets against F-16s and Apache helicopters.<BR/><BR/>Under the current siege of Gaza, Palestinians have been dying every day. If this was happening to you and your family and your community, wouldn't you reach a point where you said enough is enough?Madam Miaowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10237951918529887305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244044300216345080.post-11723286722977577452008-12-29T04:04:00.000+00:002008-12-29T04:04:00.000+00:00Hey Robert - Remember the holocaust.

I know the simpletons on the left like to make "David v. Goliath" comparisons and decide morality based on who the underdog is - which means you support Jew hatred, the distortion on Islam by fanatical killers and the education of children in hunting and murdering innocents (with cartoons, no less!). The IRA murdered innocents - are you fans of them as well since they were numerically inferior? What kind of moral compass guides you? It's a culture of death you celebrate - and the fact that Hamas fires off missiles from civilian areas and hides it's weapons and ammo among them as well ought to tell you something about your heroes.<BR/><BR/>No one wants war, but what is a country to do when the land they gave to their enemies with promises of peace is instead used against them to endanger their people? The Gaza Strip needs to be scrubbed clean of terrorists - I hope this war continues until that goal is realized.Shanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08728409097850907265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244044300216345080.post-29287186638110475652008-12-28T22:17:00.000+00:002008-12-28T22:17:00.000+00:00that should be "better duck".that should be "better duck".Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05186557603493331701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1244044300216345080.post-75674686055737099022008-12-28T22:16:00.000+00:002008-12-28T22:16:00.000+00:00Yep and the next person who says to me please reme...Yep and the next person who says to me please remember the Holocaust before duck.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05186557603493331701noreply@blogger.com
