Really? Tell me, how many people did Jesus kill? Not by way of the Medievel Catholic Church, but right up untill he was crusified, how many did He kill?Ntetos wrote:Judaism isn't a religion of peace and neither is Christianity.
So, Tyranny is not a valid reason for stern action? Taking this to it's logical conclusion, it is never reasonable to take up arms and the correct responce is to bend over, let the tyrannt have his way, offer up your property and loved ones to be ravaged and so on.d.gishman wrote:lol i hear this apologetic comment towards terrorism all the time, as if terrorism is dependant on one's point of view and the course of history books. No, American rebels never killed innocent civilians to create their independent state. There is a clear definition of terrorism. the american rebels were not terrorists.Ntetos wrote: After all, the British may have regarded the American rebels as some kind of terrorists.
Personally, I think that the whole thing is a vicious cycle. Palestinians get frustrated at their lack of a state, resort to violence, but by resorting to violence, israel retaliates and the international community loses faith in the palestinians' goal for a peaceful solution, and so on and so forth.
Palestinians should not support terrorism. They should separate from radicalism. They should stop acting like children with guns and start taking some responsibility in the international stage. The statistic of 84% supporting terrorism makes me believe that complete peace during the next 2 decades is almost unrealistic.
They are not fenced in, they are fenced out. Israel only shares one border with them. Are you upsed with Egypts fence? What about Judea/Sumaria's (the West Banks) Jordanian border? As for the sea (which you mentioned in an earlier post) that hardly qualifies as a barrier. There are these things called "ports" where sea faring vehicles like "boats" and "ships" can dock. Someone who lives on an island ought to be aware of that.Aidan Kerr wrote:what you fence in a nation of 3,760,000 because there government fucked up.

If that is the right thing to do, then I am a very, very evil man.
