>Yes, they are pawns. But of whom? Israel, who is trying to defend their very existence, or the Arab leaders who want to see Israel wiped off the map?

Their own leaders, to be sure, but can Israel keep them indefinitely in a prison? Is it really helping Israel's security?

>What do you think Israel should do? Allow their enemies to take up even closer positions to fire their rockets into the heart of Israel?

Not sure, but what they're doing now ain't the answer. How long have they been saying "We need to show the Arabs our strength?" How far has that gotten them in 60 years?

Z, I'm sorry, no matter how much the Palestinian leadership f**ks up or f**ks around, it doesn't give Israel the right to take land that belongs to the people. They're just pawns.

Yes, they are pawns. But of whom? Israel, who is trying to defend their very existence, or the Arab leaders who want to see Israel wiped off the map?

What do you think Israel should do? Allow their enemies to take up even closer positions to fire their rockets into the heart of Israel?


Say your neighbors are having a party and you grab a six pack from the fridge and head on over to their house. You've been doing it every time they have party.....you go over uninvited. Eventually, what do you think your reception is going to be?

In similar fashion, the Zionists invited themselves to a party in the ME when they weren't invited. Now you wouldn't foist yourself on your neighbors if they didn't want you over there. So why are you okay with the Israelis foisting themselves on the Arabs?

There is little that makes sense when it comes to the creation of Israel. Now I think we need to accept that truism and either help Israel dismantle itself or go our separate ways and let Israel fend for itself.
