But unlike you, I don't get all gushy defending the poor Palestinian victims. Show me where I get gushy defending the poor Palestinian victims..... So the real story that you fail to recognize is that there are extremists on both sides that will stop at nothing to stop the peace process. Why do you say I fail to recognize that there are extremists on both sides? I recognize that. So when will you start being unbiased and recognize both sides are equally at fault? As I've posted before, I don't agree with that conclusion. Just because both sides have done things which perpetuate the conflict does not mean that they are equally responsible for the way things turned out. Both sides have some portion of blame for the current situation, but Israel's is larger for the two reasons I've listed numerous times. The first is that as the victor in a war it is your responsibility to rebuild your enemy in a shape that is acceptable to you and to them (as the US did in Germany and Japan in WW2 and are doing now in Iraq). Israel failed to do this. The second reason why I think Israel is more to blame for not resolving the current conflict is simply that they are more capable than the Palestinians, and with capability and power comes responsibility. Why then are you so biased towards the Palestinians? Are you just plain anti-semitic? Or are you ignorant of history? I explain why above, and have said the same thing numerous times on this chat board. As for being anti-Semitic, the above explanation of my view has nothing to do with ethnicity or religion, so no. And at the end of the day it really doesn't matter whether anybody thinks one side has greater responsibility than the other, they've gotta resolve it themselves.
