So true... Israel was being attacked from there in 1967 so its only right that they can brutalise civilians in that area 35 years later. Might is Right
Only because they are being brutalized.all..Russ
Might does not make right. But, of course, sometimes might is right.
Anyway...what civilians are being brutalized? The same civilians, a vast majority of which, support and condone suicide bombers?
The Palestinians could have had a state 54 years ago. But no theyattacked.
They could have had a state anytime between 1948 and 1967 had Egypt andJordan
seen fit to give them the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. Not only didn'tthey do
so, they attacked ISrael instead. They could have had a state when Prime Minister Barak offered one to them a few years ago. But no, they wouldrather
kill Israeli civilians. The Palestinians have yet to show they have joinedthe
civilized world. What could have been a Palestinian state is now asmouldering
ruin because Arafat refused to make peace with Barak and the Palestinainpeople
agreed with Arafat. Plain and simple.Not really. Plain and simple would be that Israel is occupying lands that belong to somebody else. If that causes trouble, the responsiblity for that belongs to Israel.
How many times was Israel supposed to be attacked? 5? 10? 20? At whatpoint
does Israel have a right to say, 'Enough'. At what point are the justifiedin
looking out for their own security first? According to those who thinklike
you, apparently the answer is never.How do you think it stops Israel from being attacked that they give legitimate reason for it by breaking every international law and treaty there is?
