If they are not afraid of public opinion - why on earth would they bother with leaflets and phone calls and warnings?

Israel is a country who's elite classes have been infiltrated by some of the most disgusting excuses for human beings ever witnessed on this earth and any jewish person that supports them needs to take a long hard look at themselves and at their own people's history and start recognising a pattern.

Archie D Bunker wrote: » That's a very simplistic approach. Would more dead Israelis make you feel better about the whole thing? The equation is incredibly simple: no rockets = no IDF attacks. Why doesn't Hamas just try this approach once? Just once? Have a week without firing rockets.

Archie D Bunker wrote: » Israel did that and left Gaza, and all it got in return was many many more rockets and attacks. You don't consider that an effort? What have the Palestinians EVER DO for peace?

Nodin wrote: » An oppressed people. If you want to be treated like a normal state, get out of Arab East Jerusalem, the Golan and the West Bank, and drop the blockade on Gaza.
Archie D Bunker wrote: » I think you are confusing the Israelis with the American cowboys. I've already asked for examples of those obnoxious Israeli land thefts from recent years, and so far no one has risen to the challenge. All I'm shown is evidence of natural expansion of settlements due to natural birth and threats by the Israeli government that never seem to be fulfilled. Come on - where are all these new settlements? Do you know their names?

Archie D Bunker wrote: » I truly wish you were the Palestinian partner Israel deals with in peace negotiations. Unfortunately as far as I know, Hamas still also want Tel-Aviv, Haifa, West Jerusalem, Jaffa, etc.I haven't seen any correction to their charter, and haven't seen any Hamas leader stating otherwise (ie - that they are done with wanting to kick all the jews in Israel into the ocean).
end of the road wrote: » left gaza and started a blockade straight away, yeah, thats israel making an effort all right
Archie D Bunker wrote: » At least they did something. Hamas is not even requested to DO anything - they are requested to NOT DO anything, but even that non-effort is beyond them. And you didn't answer my question - what have the Palestinians ever done to achieve peace?

Nodin wrote: » They're the ones being built on. You selectively target Hamas and ignore Israels aggression elsewhere.
Archie D Bunker wrote: » Expansion of existing settlements is natural, unless you expect people there to stop having babies. Pl?
Nodin wrote: » Being obtuse are we? Any house built in the occupied territories is a "land grab" because that land its built on is not within the recognised Israeli state.
