Answer 2

I was reading the paper the other day and found the most humorous but most truthful political cartoon I've ever seen. It showed an Israeli Tank being attacked by rockets and missiles, and had a little guy named "the rest of the world" telling Israel to stop their aggression.

Let's also take a look at this issue from a different angle.

Say for example if the Mexican Army decided to cross the border with the United States and captured a few California National Guard Troops. Then fired off some cruise missiles at Camp Pendleton.

Well anyone with half a brain knows that if Mexico did that, the United States would simply shock and awe Mexico back into Aztec History. If Mexico continued to fire missiles at US targets, the United States would simply remedy the problem by invading Mexico to get rid of the hostile government and therefore remove a threat from the region.

So what's the problem with that? There is no problem!! It's called self-defense. So why can't Israel do the same?

Now getting back to the current conflict and world perception of current events.

The perception in the Arab World (and many in the rest of the world) is that there is a problem with Israel defending herself. However that perception is based on hatred and racism. All the Israelis want is to simply be left alone and live in peace. However time and time again they have been under constant attack by either their neighbors or terrorist groups like Hamas, Hezzbolah, and others.

It’s ironic that no Jews are allowed to legally live in any Arab country while Arabs are allowed to live in Israel. Even if those same Arabs would kill every Israeli man, woman, and child if given the chance, they can still live there and even participate in the political process. Racism? Where is it on the Israeli side towards the Arabs??!

I wonder if it ever occurred to Arabs and Muslims who are racist against the Israelis that maybe if the Israelis were left alone to live in peace that everyone might get a long better and maybe their wouldn't be constant conflict?

Otherwise it's a non-stop fight. If Hamas, Hezzbolah, etc decide that they want to shoot rockets and missiles at Israel or simply send their members to blow themselves up in nightclubs until the end of time, then we will only see a future of endless violence.

Israel has no problem living in peace with their neighbors. Its neighbors however, cannot say the same. The attitude of the Arab World will never admit it, but if the Arab World had their way the people of Israel would evacuate the entire region and be forced back into the ocean while bullets were flying towards them. They don't admit it so they let non-Arab countries like Iran become a major power and exert its influence over the region just like Iran's ancestors did with the Persian Empire's control in ancient times over the Arabs.

My message to the Arab world is that if you really want true peace, quit blowing yourselves up to get to your virgins. Stop firing missiles, rockets, bullets, and your mouths at the Israelis. If you can stop that the world would finally see peace in the region, but with your track record I wouldn't place my bets on the lot of you!

By the way, someone mentioned earlier "disproportionate use of force" as their reason for being offended by Isreal defending herself. I wonder if the same people who believe this way felt that the Allies used "disproportionate use of force" against Nazi Germany on D-Day or when the American Pacific Fleet took the Philippines back from the Japanese in WW II. Maybe it was also a "disproportionate use of force" when allied forces pushed the North Koreans and Chinese out of South Korea? Or when Russia defended itself against the invading army of Napoleon Bonaparte that had practically destroyed itself by attacking Russia in winter, did Russia use "disproportionate use of force" as well? I wonder if those same people felt that the world used "disproportionate use of force" in 1991 when countries around the world helped free Kuwait from Iraqi Rule. I'm sure these same people would also be offended by the United States using a "disproportionate use of force" against Al Quida in Afghanistan in 2001/2002 after Al Quida destroyed the World Trade Center on 9-11-01.

Wars are meant to be won, not lost. If Hezzbolah and Hamas didn't want a war, they shouldn't have captured Israeli Soldiers and fired off their rockets, not to mentioned their suicide bombers.

Yes, yes I know. The anti-semetic crowd disagrees with me yet again because they are, well anti-semitic. But hey I guess all of you who are anti-semetic are using a disproportionate amount of your brain in their decision-making because you hate Jews so much. Shows how much that crowd really wants peace after all.

Answer 3

Israel has overdone it. The terrorists got 2 Israeli soldiers and Lebanon has hundreds of civilians killed. Call it collateral damage, but if it was my family being killed by Israeli bombs and I;ve nothing to do with Hezzbollah, I'd give you Israeli hell to pay!

Actually it doesnt matter which side it is! Stop the killing now or blow each other out already, we're bored of your wars already!

Answer 4

because of fact maximum Palestinians are from what's now Israel, and function been prevented from going residing house because of fact that they grew to alter into refugees interior the 1948 civil conflict that led to Israel's business enterprise as a state. an identical UN that acknowledged the state additionally insisted that the refugees be allowed to return, as international regulation demands. because of fact that then, Israel has prevented this, ensuing in persevering with conflict as an offended dispossessed human beings attempt to regain what's theirs below international regulation. So in case you sense Israelis have a suitable to shelter their place of beginning place, does not this same suitable prepare to Palestinians to shelter that exact same place of beginning place against people who've ethnically cleansed them? of course the answer would desire to entail refugee return, as the rest will supply justification to the different militarily solid team that ethnically cleanses human beings, which contain Bosnian Serbs, separatist Abkhazians, Moroccans who're occupyiing Western Sahara, Sudanese combating Darfuris, and so on... in this actual case, the Gaza coastline does not belong to Israel, and that they've no suitable to avert help shipments achieving Gaza. in the event that they performed this operation in international waters, this would be an act of piracy below international regulation, not greater helpful than what Somali gangs do. despite in the event that they are ending up a unilateral operation, (a) they have not got the dazzling to attack impartial ships in international waters, and (b) they are only allowed to seek help ships, no longer preclude them from achieving refugees. They publicly suggested that they'd attempt to take the ships to an Israeli port, returned legally no distinctive form what pirates do, although their motivation is distinctive. Israel is now seen as no distinctive from what the Bosnian Serbs did to Sarajevo interior the Nineteen 1890s, killing human beings to avert help getting by using an unlawful blockade. it is the two disgusting.

Answer 5

They are only getting upset because innocent people are getting killed along with the guilty. When children die, people understandably get upset.

Besides, war is offensive by its very nature. It is going to make people upset, angry and scared.
