If the Israelis were sending suicide bombers into Gaza, you can bet I would be all over them.

But it's hard to condemn a person for defending themselves against the attacks of madmen.


This is a blood feud; that means it didn't start three years ago. The latest retaliation by the Palestinians is in reponse to prior acts committed against them by the Israelis. Its gone back and forth between the two all the way back to the first terrorists acts which were committed by the Zionists against the Brits and the Palestinians in the 1930s and 1940s. And the fighting goes back even further to the first altercations that took place between the Arabs and the Zionists in the 1920s.

So you bring up the issue of defending oneself......who is defending against whom?

Only you would think Israel should just lie down and let the suicide bombers kill every last Israeli.

I don't think Israel should lied down and let the bombers kill them but rather I think they should let their Palestinian 'servants' be free.

As soon as the Palestinians stop trying to murder women and children and commit to living peacefully, I will gladly turn my attention to stopping the Israelis from attacking the Palestinian militants.

Most Palestinians do live in peace; however, there is a willful minority that will not........they have had enough. You are foolish to think they will live by your rules.
