Lets stick with somewhat modern history here. And it is still a weaksauce excuse.
Oh noes it is all the fault of the godless commies decades ago that Fundamentalist Israel is a terrorist state surrounded by other extremist fundamentalist terrorist states. How dare the UN point it out.
Edit: I tried to go back and find where someone was speaking of this to me, but this thread is a mess that is raising my blood pressure. Not worth it.

I was the one that pointed it out.

The US and the Soviets were using proxies in the ME.

The Soviets were aligned with the Arabs and they were also still going after the Jews inside the USSR.

Look at all the resolutions against Israel and see who sponsored them.

Defenders of the Palestinians want to try and point out that Israel should honor the UN resolutions but completely ignore the politics of such.

And those of us that were around to actually see the coverage of the 4 main conflicts realize what happened and what the Arab and Soviet blocs were trumpeting.
Some also saw what the Palestinians/PLO did in the 80's once their sponsors realilzed that they has a set of pawns ripe for the mainupulation.

This generation of Arab leaders who fought Israel over and over actually rather respect Israel, unlike Hamas and the others.

Thank you. I hope freshgeardude will at least belive you and perhaps even rethink his mischaracterizations of me.

Could you also explain to him that the missiles Hamas has are too small and primitive to be effective against military targets? I don't think he understands that either.

And I agree sadly have to agree that your predictions seem likely, which is exactly why I belive Israel must stop their ongoing colonization of the West Bank, as only once that has been stopped is there any hope for ending this conflict.

TheSnowman, I know that their missiles from Lebanon can not reach egypt.

I KNOWN, but have you ever seen a picture of the rockets they use?

they are very mobile, they can move the rockets, and can possibly attack them.

Lebanon was not always bad, its when Hezbollah came in is when stuff started bad. by the way, you get enough of a certain weapon, it can be stronger than military targets.


for example, now this isnt obviously viable, but if you shoot 10,000 missiles all at once at a base, in relatively the same spot, you will get penetration. there is no invisible immunity bubble like in independence day.


also, like I said, you can get 10,000 of a missile and it can be stronger than a nuke for example.

bombs are recorded as in strength, now you wont get the EMP effect like a nuke does, but you can still have that big of an explosion

And the alignment of the nations along with the sponsorship of the resolutions.
At the time between the Arab/Muslim world and the Soviet bloc, over half the UN fell under that umbrella

I think the Israelis are still pounding only Hamas facilities/launchers/vehicles. CNN had something about children and women, but c'mon... the vast majority are terrorists that have died. Don't you think I'd be happy if someone killed 300 Crips in the U.S.?

Look at mumbai. the arabs smuggled weapons in. I am sure they can move them to Saudi Arabia if they honestly wanted to.

I am not saying that they can get 10,000 missiles. neither me, neither you or them. I am just saying if a group gets enough of a weapon, they can destroy military targets

Edit: actually they can, they get money from Syria and Iran and Saudi Arabia, which have oil, so basically if they wanted to, they could get more firepower.

the thing is, Israel is smart, they have developed anti missile defenses, but only powerful ones that can really do a lot of damage like half a city type damage. the ones they are shooting at israel right now are not strong enough, because they do not fly high enough in the air
