But you don't see any of this cartoons when kids (and infants ) are getting blow up by the Palestinians That statement is pure prejudice. You cannot possibly know if there are no cartoons to be seen about Palestinians. Although I don't follow all magazines and newspapers in all of Europe, I do remember seeing cartoons mocking the futility of Palestinian strategies for statehood. Why??? Err... Because you are prejudiced and WANT TO believe that: (1) All European media mocks ONLY Israel (easily demonstrable as false) and... (2) Nobody mocks Palestinians (also untrue) If I put a Muslim moon... You mean, a "crescent"? :-) ... in one of this cartoon and show him blow up kids, the whole world will jump, not in the case of the Jews I don't know where you live but it must be pretty well isolated from the outside world if you have never seen such a cartoon, or indeed criticism and mocking of this self-defeating strategy. On that note - Do remember that yes, we are all very sorry and sad for the Jews persecuted indiscriminately and brutally in WWII. But no, that does not mean the world is supposed to ignore the brutalities Israel now excercises on Palestinians.

Israel brutally killed terrorist murder leaders. Isn't that awful!!! How dare they indiscrimately attack leaders of a terrorist organization that has openly boasted that it will destroy the entire nation. Israel should just let the suicide children into their borders. It's a violation of human rights to seal borders, preventing cowardly civilian attacks. Those Jews are just too sensitive. What's wrong with a little blood libel? After all, don't those Jews enjoy blood as part of their Passover celebration? They just don't appreciate the European "sensitivities." It's certainly wrong not to care about the Palestinians who live in squalor because Arafat and the Arab leaders continue to use them as human pawns.

Amots, Show me the Palestinian tanks. Show me the Palestinian helicopters firing missiles into crowds, show me the Palestinian "concentration camp" fence separating Israelis from their jobs, farms, families, schools and hospitals. Then we can talk realistically about the sins of the Palestinians. Palestinians like this woman pleading with the IDF: cactus48.com *** Rachel Corrie, humanitarian volunteer, murdered by the IDF: electronicintifada.net
