Everyone condemns Israel for the bombardment of Gaza, but the solution to this would have been so simple it’s mind boggling. If the Palestinians are serious about ending the fight with Israel, wouldn’t they have arrested the ones responsible for killing the 3 teens and sentence them to death?
If it were any other civilized country in the world, they would do this. But the Palestinians stand behind the killers so Israel’s military reaction should not surprise them or any one else.[/quote]
This conflict, like this thread, will never really end. It’s always the same pattern. The Palestinians instigate a conflict, Israel responds, the world goes up in arms over the pictures of corpses from the conflict and begs Israel to stop. Israel eventually stops, Hamas rearms and re-instigates. Same thing happens again.
Aside from Israel, I don’t see anybody willing to do what needs to be done to create a sustainable peace. What needs to be done is ugly. Aside from an act of God or a change of heart on the part of the Arabs (which would be arguably more miraculous) in that part of the world, this will continue. It sucks. [/quote][/quote]
I say bullshit on 2 accounts
(1) it will end when Israel ceases to exist
(2) Palestine is not Attacking Israel
Humas:) is
The first point is inevitable
The second why Israel is wrong

So you do not support Israel’s right to exist? [/quote]
yes , I support Israels right to exist , I do not support Israels war on Gaza , I do not support turning Gaza in to a prison . If you want Gaza to be a prison at least run a humanitarianly sound one .
Water , Sewage , Electricity and trash . You can not put all the pieces in place that make it a prison and then just because you deny it is a prison just so you are not responsible for it
[/quote]
Israel has been footing the bill for Gaza’s power for years. Never been repaid. The whole prison bullshit really needs to stop. No one takes you seriously when you spew that non-sense.

America foots the bills for our prisons and don’t expect the prisons to pay us back
[/quote]
The difference is Gaza and the West Bank are not a prison. They are supposed to be run by the elected Palestinian officials that have been funded hand over fist by the UN but are inept war mongers who take the money and use it to further there attempts to overrun Israel, who has in turn had to place sanctions against an enemy of their national security. The blockade is one tactic to keep conflicts like this from getting worse. Also, Israel is not the only group that has imposed a blockade on Palestine. Egypt is part of that too. Why aren’t you calling for Egypt to foot the bill for this?
[/quote]
I would not call Egypt to foot the bill Because Egypt just closed it’s borders.
Israel even limits the distance ships can sail in the sea Israel has Gaza surrounded . I would agree that with out Egypt’s acquiescence the wall would not be complete
