Do you realistically expect a culture to sit idly by while its anally
raped,
and then thank the person who's doing the prodding?  Kudos that they've
held
on this long, and thank god the fight hasn't gone out of them.  I hope
they
end up destroying the "state" of Israel, so a new state can be put on
the
land that RESPECTS BOTH PEOPLES CLAIMS TO THE LAND, rather than just
one.


Peace will not come until the Arabs love their children more than they
hate 
ours.

~Last I checked, Arabs were no different than Jews.  Both grieve the
loss
of their children in this stupid conflict.  Both are willing to send
thier
children to the sword in defense of their culture and territory.  And 
incidentally, most Arab's could give a rats ass about Jews and Judiasm;
its Israel thats REALLY pissing them off and destabilizing the region.
But then again, its always been the technique to lower your opponents
state of morality and mental health when trying to justify the blood
on your hands.

~Just a suggestion, but sending anyone to Israel (or Palestine) at this 
stage of the game is like playing russian roulette (with bad odds).  
You should think twice about that, if *you* care about your child
(common sense aside, the US state dept. will tell you the same thing).
