What people are being told, or what you see on TV, the CNN, the Aljazeera, the BBC etc is very different from the reality.
You will be told so and so kidnapped Israeli child and killed them.
That might not be true, it might just be a lie to justify what they want to achieve, and you know what they want to achieve:

INVASION

And many say oh these religions allow eye for an eye...
Are you saying when it comes to Jews there is civilized way to fight?
Are you saying it is justifiable for Jews to kill thousands of civilians and dismiss this as collateral damage?

Nobody has the right to kill civilians, even if an enemy kill our civilians, we don't have the right to do the same.

In Islam, Allah permits retaliation only against the guilty party, not against innocent.

So my friend, this is not about religion. This is political moves.

@Alpha amazes me! Too much emotions but little material facts to match!

Always ignoring data from the opposite side. Only Palestinians/Arabs have all the truth and rights while everybody else is a consumer of western propaganda!
Amazing!

Which media outlets churn out better news for starters, so we may shift there!

Who is the aggressor in the current hostilities. Who is applying what kind of tactics.

As for me, I f were in Israel shoes I would not spare any effort in dealing with the aggressors whose unreasonable nature is well known in the world.

In their book, Israel ought not to exist! In fact in the PLO charter they unashamedly asserted that Israel was due to be destroyed!
They then went ahead to implement the destroying but they were repulsed and humbled. Who doubts that if the Arabs had a way they would destroy Israel even today!
So for Israel how else do you deal with nut cases who want you obliterated, and are incessantly launching attacks, and improvising ways and means to that end.

Hamas should aim all their rockets at ben gurion airport the israelis may just blink first if another ban is imposed

The country already feels under siege," Danin told The Wire. "Now with this new dimension added, people can't get out or in

Israelis do not know how to blink; maybe they will literally flatten Gaza as a consequence.

@AlphDoti, The video explains why the war will never end- propaganda on both sides justifying their hardline stand. The video is purely a Palestinian version and i am sure there is an Israeli version.

At least in Palestine, the Jihadists have met their match- an eye for an eye. All the Mujahedeens should move there and leave the rest of the world in peace.

@B.Timer your position is quite reasonable, just as @AlphDoti's is biased. I tried to outline a brief historical view here #112 and here #118.

So the simple questions are:
1. How come 1.2m Arabs and 0.68m Jews lived in Palestine, even before the state was created?
2. Where else should state of Israel have been created?
3. Weren't most states created through partition?

@bkismat forgive my oversight. I thought that deal was sealed...

AlphaDoti allow me to call you out on your BS. That video'Top Rabbi exposes Jewish racism' is propaganda sprinkled with some truths here and there. First of all, the Jewish people are not all religious, infact surprise surprise, majority of the Jews living in Israel do not practice Judaism but are instead Atheist. Yes Atheist, so stop the generalizations of trying to portray all Jewish people as evil. The Rabbis and Jews in that clip are orthodox Jews, these are the extremists of Judaism who believe in living life exactly as it was in the Old Testament. So it is very hypocritical for both that Duke guy and you to use that to portray all Jews. The average Jew is ashamed of Orthodox Judaism, Steven Spielberg is a prime example! You are always wailing about how we cant judge Islam by actions of extreme Muslims, yet you are here doing the very same thing! Jews are not evil, they are smart, extremely smart! That clip was a bunch of BS, no one can make you a slave without your consent. If the Jews were smart enough to control the media, Wall Street and the political arena, you cant come and cry foul about. Its like crying foul when someone repeatedly beats you in exams, just study harder or work smarter. I personally adore Ben Bernanke, Blankfein and even Greenspan, these are people who worked extremely hard to get to where they are, but now that they have made it and also happen to be Jewish, uh oh watch out, they are evil. A bunch of BS!! I don't even need to do a search on that Duke guy to know that he's a conservative Republican with a political agenda, but AlphDoti has hijacked his agenda and turned it into a religious one! Need I remind you that your oh so Holy religion calls for the killing of non-Muslims, I wonder which is better? Being killed for not believing or being a "slave" because you are a Gentile? And before you answer that, I hope you don't have any investments or stocks coz they are founded on the simple concept of making your money work for you, you know, what in this video has now been termed being a slave master. Utter BS!
