      The problem that no-one touches on is we help pay for this. If the Israelis and the Palestinians want to fight forever do not on our countries back!

      Give the Israelis living on Palestinian land the choice of becoming Palestinian citizens subject to Palestinian law or going back to Israel.

        Funny because Israeli arabs aren't subject to Israeli law. more importantly the Palestinians want a judenrein state, and won't allow any Jews to live in their "national homeland" even as they call for palestinians to be allowed to go back to Israel. you'd think they'd lose the desire to return to a Jewish State once they have their own..

      Typical Israelis, in front of the cameras they talk about wanting peace and living side by side with the Palestinian state, but on the ground they are deepening the issues by building these illegal settlements in the occupied territories which by the way have more than doubled since the Oslo Accord. Is that a sign of someone who wants peace? They have been trying for years to prevent the Palestinian state from happening. why don't they simply take over the whole thing and give all Palestinians Israeli citizenship and be done with it? but noooo, They want their cake and they wanna eat it too!!

      Conclusion of Historic Review: All jewish ancesters have been fu*ked by the arabs for hundreds of generation. Therefore jewish and arabs are one and the same blood. Let's get the hell out of there now.

      Not much to say about it?
      Here ya go.
      This just goes to show that Israel is not interested in Peace.
      They have plenty of land for people to live on, but they WANT to live in East Jerusalem, and they are GOING to live in East Jerusalem, though there is no reason for it.
      They are letting the WANTS interfere with the rest of the World's Needs.

      That reminds me of a joke.
      Do you know why the people of Israel are like Flies?
      They eat crud and bother people.

      And the US has to protect them with a veto?!
    • muttkat  •  8 mths ago
      I guess I have to repost this. Remember the Dancing Israelies on 911 cheering and taking pictures while the WTC towers fell and 1000's died? Do you think they would like it if non Jews dressed up like Nazis and danced and cheered at a Holocaust Memorial service?
    • muttkat  •  8 mths ago
      AS much money as we have given Israel almost 114 billion it sucks when Israel has attacked US posts in the 1950's, attacked the USS Liberty in 1967 and got away with it killing 34 US servicemen and wounding 171 and then used the Arabs as patsies to attack us on 911 while they were dancing and taking pictures of the WTC while 1000's died.

      Robert this is for you:

      Why do use use GOD words and take them out of context? Do you seek your own glory. God was speaking to Abram and his seed. Do you know of his seed? If not you are a liar. Who are Abram seed what makes you know that whom you protect is of the seed of Abram. Did Christ the son of God not say : Yshua came to fulfill the word not to destroy it but you teach what is not the message God has given as you do not know what you worship.

      Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

      But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

      That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.

      For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?

      And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?

      Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

      Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:

      And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

      And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

      So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

      And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.

      And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.

      And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.

      And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.

        God has nothing to do with any of this. The sooner human beings take responsibility for their actions, the more peace there will be in the world. When Biblical injunctions move nations, the result is unpredictable.

      Why not....The continued lost blood , family devastations and horrific expenses will be for whacky whacky dumb Big brother as usual.

      Just so were clear Gilo is a suburb of Jerusalem with a population of 40,000, not some tiny hilltop settlement like the media would have you believe. Whether it was across some arbitrary armistice line drawn 60 years ago is now irrelevant. More importantly, with housing prices in metropolitan areas skyrocketing, these houses nearby are a much needed relief. Remember, Israelis need houses to live in also, and telling them that they can't build homes for their own expanding population is preposterous.

      Question:
      How come every time we Criticize Israel (Rightfully So) they call it Anti-Semitics?
      Criticizing a state is NOT the same as criticizing a Race or Religion.
      • Death Rattle 8 mths ago
        Anti-Semitic is the shield the Jews hide behind.
        For years when one spoke out against the Zionist jews all one had to do was scream Anti-Semitic and everyone stopped to look, kinda like yelling rape on a crowded street
        Its not like that for the Jews today however , years of watching the atrocities and human rights violations these "people" commit day after day has worn down that shield of Anti-Semitic as the world over see the ZioNazi Jews for what they really are , war mongering . land grabbing carpetbaggers .
      • FactsMatter 8 mths ago
        If you're not anti-semitic, don't worry about it. Certainly, your use of the term "ZioNazi" is offensive and would leave many people to believe that you are anti-semitic. I would never use such a term--though I am critical of Israel.
      • Anonymous 8 mths ago
        ZioNazi is correct, that does not mean the Jewish people who live in the state of Israel it is the Zionist leaders

      We know which side is obstructing the peace process. If Israel is really serious about Middle East peace it will build the 1,100 new homes and then allow Palestinians to live in them. The U.S. needs to be on the right side of this issue. Support Palestinian statehood now.
      • gerry 8 mths ago
        How about this tom, why don't you give the palestinians your house or all the properties you own, then you can ask for Isreal to give, then you have the right to have a say in it, are you willing to take the first step tom?
      • TomR 8 mths ago
        Gerry, let me respond to your comment. First, I don't have a house; I have an apartment. Second, the Palestinians don't want to live where I live (which is not anywhere near Palestine). Third, take your sorry #$%$ arrogant attitude elsewhere.

      The USS Cole Bombing, or the USS Cole Incident, was a suicide attack against the United States Navy destroyer USS Cole (DDG-67) on October 12, 2000 while it was harbored and refueled in the Yemeni port of Aden.
      Seventeen American sailors were killed, and 39 were injured. This event was the deadliest attack against a United States Naval vessel since 1987.

      Al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for the attack. A U.S. judge has held Sudan liable for the attack, while another has released over $13 million in Sudanese frozen assets to the relatives of those killed. The American Navy has reconsidered their rules of engagement in response to this attack.
