First of all, you need to understand that it is the Palestinians who are under the occupation not the Israelis. The Israelis are the occupiers, the Palestinians are the occupied. It is the Palestinians who have to live in Isreali-run refugee camps in the land that was their country once. It is the Palestinians who have to deal with Israeli checkpoints within their own communities just so they can go from place to place. It is the Palestinians who are not allowed on certain freeways that slice through their communiites becuase they are for Israeli motorists only. If all this was not enough, the Palestinians are bombed, killed, kidnapped, imprisoned, tortured and kept in prison camps for years without any trial. And yes they throw rocks and even fire rockets. But they are massacred in return even though they are the occupied and it is their land that was taken from them. This does not mean that the Isaelis have to leave the region and settle somewhere else. It just means that the Palestinians sould not be killed or forced to live like this or forced to live in exile.
Consider this, if you see a woman being raped by some guys and you notice that the woman is kicking, slapping and screaming as she is raped and beaten by these men. Do you sit their and say that we need to be even-handed or fair to both parties? Do you sit their and say that if the woman could just stop screaming and kicking then we could talk to the rapist to discontinue raping at their earliest convenience?
For the Israeli and Palestinian issue you have to take sides, and you have to pressure the party (Israel) that is clearly in the wrong to stop immediately.

Time and time again Israel has tried to make peace with its neighbors, by giving into their demands. Israel just wants to live in peace and quiet. This is why Israel withdrew from Southern Lebanon in 2000 and from Gaza last year.
These withdrawals have only led to violence. In the north, Hizbollah has amassed a large arsenal of weapons in Israel's absence, that it is now shooting down onto Israel. Gaza has become a terrorist haven. As soon as Israel withdrew the began further attacking Israel. The 'palestinian' culture is one of hatred and violence - and cannot exist without it. The cannot accept peace, and won't allow it to happen.
"Palestinians" were a people created in the last century solely for the purpose of waging a campaign of violence against Israel. 50 -75 years ago the term "palestinian" meant Jew, but today the local Arabs have coined themselves 'palestinian' and have created a culture of hatred and violence. These are values taught to young children in schools. Peace and tolerance are not taught.
Israel has movements such as "shalom achshav" that preach peace at any cost. These groups are free to criticize the Israeli at any time. Why is there no Arab version of "shalom achshav".
Througout history, every Israeli overture of peace has resulted in more violence. In 1947 / 48 Israel agreed to a 2 state solution. The Arabs response was War. In 1993 the Oslo accords began the handing of autonomous power to the 'palestinians'. This lead to an increase in regular suicide bombings. Buses all over Israel were bombed on a regular basis. In 2000 Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak agreed to give to the palestinians 97% of the land Israel captured in the 1967 war from Jordan and Egypt (not Including the Sinai that was already given away). The 'palestinians' did not accept this. They were offered a state, and they said NO! Their response - the second Intifada. Finally, last year Israel withdrew fro Gaza, this resulted in IMMEDIATE violence, including the daily bombing of Sderot and Ashkelon, in addition to the more recent kidnapping of an Israeli soldier.
In summary, Israel offers peace, arabs respond with violence. To me, this justifies military action. Israel already attempted diplomacy and good will. This was flat out rejected. The arabs want a war, and now they have one.
Israel needs to root out these 2 terrorist organizations, and make the WORLD a safer and better place to live.

of course Palestine !
Haven't you read that the Israelis had been persecuted by Hitler the Great in Europe before they were assisted by the barbarian British to steal Palestine?
Perhaps they were persecuted; nevertheless, i doubt the 'Holocaust'. This so-called 'Holocaust' is a means used by the Israelis to blackmail the Europeans, mainly the Germans.

Zionism all the way!
Palestinians had their chance to have a country after the WW2 but blew it. Basically, they didn't want Israel to have a country or to exist as a people. Of course, there's more to it then this. Google the subject.
