You really are a sucker for Israeli propaganda. Either that, or you are being deliberately obtrusive.
Ah, but they protect them with bombs and shells aimed at civilian infrastructure as well as slaughtering their children who play football on beaches.
so what is your solution to this entire problem? oh, I forgot. Palestine doesn't want a solution. they just want intifada and jihad.
Jihad as conceptualized within its proper Islamic context and intifada which is its expression? Let's take that as understood. Given Israel's historical duplicity and lies, and the Wests complicity in regards to the said duplicity and lies allied to the use of the U.S veto, few rational observers would argue that they have few alternatives other than to adhere to their ultimately honourable and dignified position of Jihad. If the intention of the Israeli's is to wipe them incrementally from the map by stealth (which it is), they literally have nothing to lose. The Islamic concept of Jihad is not inconsistent with the aim of attaining Palestinian justice which is what they aspire to. How do they achieve justice? That's a question that needs to be directed towards their Israeli oppressors who over decades have illegally encroached on their land, ethnically cleansed them, deliberately targeted them with bombs and shells as a form of collective punishment as well as their maintaining of a belligerent occupation. As all rational and informed observers know, the firing of rockets into Israel was merely the pretext for Israel to continue on with it's illegalities and civilian targeted violence.
You assume intentions that you cannot demonstrate and use that imagined slight as justification for murder. You suggest discussion and dialog are not alternatives. You say a man who has his life has nothing to loose. ... and you call this position honorable and dignified. I call it insane and dangerous.
In an ideal world, discussion and dialogue would be the way forward. But over the decades, the U.S-supported Israeli's have proven to have not acted in good faith and have been duplicitous and dishonest throughout. The historical process of ethnic cleansing is not an assumed intention but actual intention that is supported by evidence, as for example, documented by Israeli professor, Ilan Pappe in his seminal work, 'The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine.' They have nothing to lose because the only real choices they have are two-fold, do nothing and get wiped out, or attempt to fight back and go down fighting. It's the latter, as opposed to the former, that's the dignified and honourable approach to take.
The ball for a peace, predicated on justice for the oppressed (the only peace worth its salt), is firmly entrenched within the Israeli court.
And has never ever been tried rather terrorism is a more justifiable alternative for some here and the Palestinians.
Irrelevant since 1991, they should have fought their fanatics and establish one leadership, they couldnt or didnt want to.
Th Israeli's have never acted in good faith because as I said the intention all along has been to ethnically cleanse the indigenous population from their land.
I think you'll find that Israel has committed more violations of international law, conventions and treaties than the Hamas Government. Mind you, the militant group of Hamas is no terrorist organisation... As they say, one man's terrorist is anothers freedom fighter. And Hamas fights for recognition and freedom from Israeli opression.
Every rocket fired by Hamas in general direction of population centers is a war crime, every suicide attack, every kidnapping. Every rocket launcher in school yard, every weapons cache in mosque or command center in hospital is a war crime, crime against humanity and their own people. That universally recognized terror gangs like Al Qaeda, Hamas, ISIS, Hezbollah are some man's freedom fighters speaks volumes about the mental condition of those who won't recognize fanaticism and terror if it bites them in the a$s.
You must watch 'Son of Hamas' on you tube and realize what he divulges. In the meantime please 'google' it and read. According to 'Son of Hamas'.... HAMAS IS NON PALESTINIAN... they should be considered like ISIS in Syria-Iraq... Thank you for your attention...
I need to raise my tolerance for what you say HBender. It is no doubt not your fault but simply the propaganda you must listen to day and night. [video=youtube;uGvmWXcSWlw]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGvmWXcSWlw#t=24[/video] Well thankfully not all are fooled http://972mag.com/netanyahu-tweets-foley-execution-video-to-score-points-against-hamas/95820/ and as along with his intent to to get the world to accept Israel's annihilation of the people of Gaza, he had the guile to include mention human shields, let's just make it clear the first evidence we have of Palestinian minors being used this time against the rules of war is ........wait for it.......coming up........yes, you guessed it Israel http://972mag.com/palestinian-teen-i-was-used-as-a-human-shield-in-gaza/95800/ I would suggest you stop parroting things Netanyahu says to you. We all know Hamas is not Isis. Neither he nor you are going to fool anyone. In the meantime it would be better to get your Government to get their and your own house in order before spreading porkies about others.
and speaking of propaganda this is beyond belief. The Jerusalem Post, no less. http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/COLUMN-ONE-Understanding-the-Israeli-Egyptian-Saudi-alliance-371891
