"I don't see much of an uproar over the killing of a pregnant mother and her 4 children. After disabling the car, the cowardly terrorists walked up to the car and shot them point blank, giving the woman one in the belly to make sure that the fetus was dead." Israel should consider taking action against those murderers, but it is not a matter for the US to get involved in. Yesterday in Africa, rebels cut off a woman's ears, tongue, fingers and toes. They then raped her 11 year old daughter repeatedly while the mother watched and bled to death. "Of course, it was her fault for being there" as you like to say. Israel's war is not my war. I will repeat it, just in case you didn't get the jist of it: Israel's war is not my war. And, just in case it still didn't sink in: ISRAEL'S WAR IS NOT MY WAR

You're making excuses again for the US and Israel, and trying to change the subject. I denounce what was done to that woman. We in the US can't control that group - but we can certainly control our own soldier, who have invaded another country - and are in charge of that country right now. One has nothing to do with the other. Remember, we are supposed to be there to bring them freedom. Not to torture and humiliate them. This is a very sad time for the US - as I believe we have hit a real low in our behavior toward others. We've done all of the wrong things here, and it will come back to bite us in the *ss unforunately. Israel could do a lot to help it's image also. They could start by getting out of all of the Occupied territories tomorrow morning - just withdraw - and take down all of the illegal settlements also - by force if necessary. International law, and their own Israeli Supereme Court all show that this is not Israeli territory, but another people's occupied land. They can start the ball rolling by getting out now - and stop breaking international law. That would show them to be on the side of right, when they stop breaking international law. I really think the US should threaten to withold all US aid if they do not say within 6 months. That might prompt them to reconsider. Are they all bad? No, not what I'm saying at all. But they have contributed to the hate against them. >> I don't see much of an uproar over the killing of a pregnant mother and her 4 children.
