when you see George Bush wasting your tax money just trying to make Israel's dreams in the middle east a reality? As Americans, don't you feel that the people in the Bush Administration who are more loyal to Israel than to the US are just harming you and wasting your money and killing your soldiers just for the sake of extremist zionism? or has the US media brainwashed you completely and made you think that Israel is really so nice and romantic and that its people are the chosen people of God (really?! how come that a God can be so biased for some of his creatures against all the others?! crap!!!) and that the Arabs are nothing but as*holes and terrorists? did your media tell you that Israel is still occupying Palestine and parts of Syria and Lebanon and that any nation has the right to militarily resist miliatary occupation? were the "founding fathers" of the USA terrorists when they militarily resisted the British?

sometimes I just feel Americans are so naive and uninformed!

Governments and terrorists organizations have different agendas which can make WWIII happen. Without their greed for power and wealth, can we people stop the threat of war by spreading peace and love and respect for all race and religions in our world?

has technology been so bad that it has made it more difficult to dig up or process oil int he past years or decades? we know why salaries increase, because basic commodities increase, because oil prices increase. but what makes the price of oil increase?
if the explaination is supply:demand, then alternative fuels should be sprouting from everywhere rahter than being controlled.

The Israelis and most of our media are lying as usual.

But here's the truth people :)

"basically the current stage of what's going on -- there's a lot more -- begins with the Hamas election, back the end of January. Israel and the United States at once announced that they were going to punish the people of Palestine for voting the wrong way in a free election. And the punishment has been severe.

At the same time, it's partly in Gaza, and sort of hidden in a way, but even more extreme in the West Bank, where Olmert announced his annexation program, what’s euphemistically called “convergence” and described here often as a “withdrawal,” but in fact it’s a formalization of the program of annexing the valuable lands, most of the resources, including water, of the West Bank and cantonizing the rest and imprisoning it, since he also announced that Israel would take over the Jordan Valley. Well, that proceeds without extreme violence or nothing much said about it.

Gaza, itself, the latest phase, began on June 24. It was when Israel abducted two Gaza civilians, a doctor and his brother. We don't know their names. You don’t know the names of victims. They were taken to Israel, presumably, and nobody knows their fate. The next day, something happened, which we do know about, a lot. Militants in Gaza, probably Islamic Jihad, abducted an Israeli soldier across the border. That’s Corporal Gilad Shalit. And that's well known; first abduction is not. Then followed the escalation of Israeli attacks on Gaza, which I don’t have to repeat. It’s reported on adequately.

The next stage was Hezbollah's abduction of two Israeli soldiers, they say on the border. Their official reason for this is that they are aiming for prisoner release. There are a few, nobody knows how many. Officially, there are three Lebanese prisoners in Israel. There's allegedly a couple hundred people missing. Who knows where they are?

But the real reason, I think it's generally agreed by analysts, is that -- I’ll read from the Financial Times, which happens to be right in front of me. “The timing and scale of its attack suggest it was partly intended to reduce the pressure on Palestinians by forcing Israel to fight on two fronts simultaneously.” David Hearst, who knows this area well, describes it, I think this morning, as a display of solidarity with suffering people, the clinching impulse."

When the American people stop their government from sending a total of $90 Billion of their taxes to Israel to support their barbaric acts then the fighting will stop.

And also when the American people stop their governments from vetoing any chance of a peaceful settlement, then maybe there will be an agreement.

I wonder why there is always a problem in middle east. What is the history about it? What is the solution? Who is at fault? What can be done to stop this. it is we the people who suffer. like the price of crude has started to flair up causing expensive gas.
