Gustave, I am ashamed of you. You evaded my question and you juxtaposed my statement in manner that is not analogous to the question that I asked you. I asked you a simple question about the futility of Palestinian violence. I asked, "If it's impossible [for the Palestinians to win] why do they continue? Why do you not condemn them?". Keep in mind that it was you that said that the Palestinians could never win a military victory over Israel. Unsurprisingly (to me), you didn't answer either of my questions. I infer from this and numerous other statements you have made about Jews that you want the Palestinians to continue fighting and dying in vain and that you are unwilling to condemn their violence. Indeed, your 'answer' was to change the subject altogether and to bring up the issue of Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem. The issue of Jerusalem is certainly a valid argument on it's own right, but it is not a valid response to why the Palestinians wish to continue killing and dying in vain. Of course, you also conveniently omitted the fact that the Palestinians are just as intransigent as the Israeli's on the subject of Jerusalem. Also, you never answered my questions about what it is you meant about Palestinians securing a political or ideological victory. So I ask again. What exactly do you mean by a political or ideological victory for the Palestinians? And, if the Palestinians were to win such a victory what if anything would it mean to their current situation in the mideast? It's still absolutely amazing to me that there are people on this board that think people like yourself and Emile are somehow making good points on these issues. You are unwilling to answer straight questions nor willing to elaborate on many of the comments you yourself make.
