Hamas, an organization that promotes and carries out suicide bombings against civilians, won general elections in Gaza, which means that the majority of the Palestinian people support them.

Because of that, I really have trouble looking at these people as human beings, and I'm not moved by your photos. As far as I'm concerned, if Hamas is exterminated, the world will be a better place for it.

Agreed, they are the elected officials, and have re-started a war with Israel, any response against the palistinians is completely justified, regardless of suffering. I would expect the US to do the same if Mexico lobbed bombs into Texas. Act civilized, work out a civilized truce and stick to it and your problems are eliminated.

There is such a thing, but it's actually centrally controlled by Al Qaeda. Think of it as the PR firm for the entire "Global Jihad."

It's called the Al-Fajr Media Center.

Look it up.

All I know is that if Hamas had deliverable nuclear bombs, Israel would be wiped off the face of the earth.

Israel DOES have such devices and doesn't use them.

Hamas targets Israeli civilians and hides among Palestinian civilians for protection. Those who sympathize with Hamas are slime.

there's a reason Israel is keeping observers like Cynthia McKinney out of the Gaza.

& it's not because they're trying to hide the flowers at the local community garden.

it's because Israel has put a million Palestinians in a situation that is very similar
to a concentration camp, and is doing to those people what normally happens in
concentration camps - killing them.

the government of Israel lives in a state of Holocaust Denial (a reference to the
initial destruction of 400 Palestinian villages in 1948, long before the Palestinians
started fighting back). and, the US press goes along with it.

for people who are interested in learning about Israel's history of state-sponsored
killing of civilians,

lulz @ you.

Fact, history AND logical reasoning? What do you think this is, some kind of frenchy forum or something? Get out of here you communist terrorist loving european socialist

Isreal has a right to defend itself. Of course, this right doesnt extend to enemies of any cause I stand for. Nor should it.

Aimster, I prove nothing, I say that even if you see Israelis killing people with your own eyes you will say "oh, It was a strange dreaming, Just forget it". So don't worry.

Everyone believes the Israelis are killing people. Everyone also believes that the Palestinians are killing people. In the West, people generally believe the Israelis stopped killing people for a while in an effort to end the killing, and Palestinian individuals, with the encouragement of their government continued killing people. Therefore many people in the West believe that Israel's killing right now is defensive and justifiable.

Palestine has a reputation for hating the Israelis, being unwilling to compromise, unwilling to stop killing, and the West believes that Palestine might take that attitude towards the West if they had the resources and reach.

Do you disagree with any of the statements I made against the Palestinians there?

Stupid Israel left the "sun" alive.

Obvisouly they are not good at warfare or we would have seen photos of both dead.


I'm all for peace and the majority of Palestenaian's and Israeli's are for peace. The only problem is Hamas has declared its mission as killing all jews and have acted on that declaration by firing rockets at the general population.

What kind of response would be "acceptable" to those who believe Israel is over-reacting?

Maybe she was killed with one of Hamas' misfired missiles.

It is sad that anyone is dying. All it takes to end the deaths is for Hamas to stop launching rockets at Israel, but they refuse to do so.
