Disgraceful. If you had any Idea what the situation was like on the ground you wouldn't be making such foolish remarks.
FACT: The Israeli unemployment rate is 9%, while the Palestinian unemployment is estimated at 40%
FACT: 60+ new Jewish-only settlements have been built on confiscated Palestinian land between March 2001 and July 11, 2003. There have been 0 cases of Palestinians confiscating Israeli land and building settlements.
FACT: 0 Israeli homes have been demolished by Palestinians and 4,170 Palestinian homes have been demolished by Israel since September 29, 2000
FACT: 1 Israeli is being held prisoner by Palestinians, while 9,599 Palestinians are currently imprisoned by Israel.
FACT: Israel has been targeted by at least 65 UN resolutions and the Palestinians have been targeted by none.
Is anyone really surprised that this old woman has killed herself, and tried to take a few Israelis with her? Given that the situation is so dire one should expect this.

Carl the Green’s Keeper: “FACT: The Israeli unemployment rate is 9%, while the Palestinian unemployment is estimated at 40%...so what's your point?” The sharp rise in Palestinian unemployment, is universally viewed as resulting from Israeli policies of closure and movement restrictions.
“FACT: 60+ new Jewish-only settlements have been built on confiscated Palestinian land between March 2001 and July 11, 2003. There have been 0 cases of Palestinians confiscating Israeli land and building settlements....lie” This was written by Jonathan Cook, a British journalist for the London Guardian. Remember: “The Occupying Power shall not deport or transfer parts of its own civilian population into the territory it occupies.” - Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949.

“FACT: 0 Israeli homes have been demolished by Palestinians and 4,170 Palestinian homes have been demolished by Israel since September 29, 2000....lie” As written in B’Tselem, “Through No Fault of Their Own,” Nov 15, 2004.
“FACT: 1 Israeli is being held prisoner by Palestinians, while 9,599 Palestinians are currently imprisoned by Israel.....lie” Found by The Mandela Institute for Human Rights – Palestine (last updated April 30, 2006) and Reuters.
“FACT: Israel has been targeted by at least 65 UN resolutions and the Palestinians have been targeted by none....lie.…” Erm, the source is the UN, DUH! If you cant open your eyes wide enough to see that this is the truth why bother to open them at all? We will never have peace if ALL SIDES take a step back and look at what they’re doing. Israel has a lot to answer for.

Yuckler, you seem to be engrossed by the myth that a suicide bomber is somehow worse that shooting someone In the head. Also, you say that my opinion is biased because of my religion. You say: “In the first instance, the land belonged to Israel, and promised to them by God. The land was never the land of Palestinians, at that time there was no Palestine. Israel built settlements on their OWN land. FACT” If there was ever a religious motive for this conflict this is it, how can you base your argument around they myth of the lands being ‘given to the Israelis’ by God? Fruitless.
Here’s some Jewish people that would disagree with you, Yuckler: http://www.jewsagainstzionism.com/

Erm Yuckler, I did not say that I support the killing of innocent civilians. You should note that this situation is a two way street. Palestinian kills an Israeli, an Israeli kills a Palestinian, what, apart from the name is the difference?

Yuckler, don't patronize me. Ancient biblical history has no bearing whatsoever in determining a solution in this conflict. I am very aware of the history and my opinions are not biased, take a look at what is happening today, not what happened thousands of years ago and we may find a solution.

FACT: Palestinians do not want peace because they do not want to be Palestine, they reject any deals to make palestine a country because they want the entire Israeli country
FACT: Palestinian suicide bomber families train their young children to be suicice bombers
FACT: Palestinian terrorist groups shield behind innocent civilians, they don' care if innocent palestinians die as long as they can parade the bodies of dead people for a-jazeera
FACT: Palestininas LOVE to parade the corpses of their dead around.
FACT: Terrosist are not freedom fighters, they are pshychotic
FACT: Your Islaeli settlemts you spoke of WERE ALREADY DISMANTLED!
FACT: There were Jews living in the Holy landWAY before 1948...they were living there for many many yearseven feore Palestinand arived to Israel.
FACT: Palestine was never a country, only after Israelis rebuild, worked, and made the holy land prosperous did Palestinians demanded to have the lands.
Fact: You want sources?
By the way...There is NO EXCUSE for terrosism.
The Real victims are the children both Israeli and Palestinian.

Yes, yes, of course the rational and just answer to political inequality is to perpetuate violence and murder at will. I'm sure God is very happy with the old coot and she's playing a harp at his right hand side while hand feeding jews to Satan.
I must have missed that bit in the Quaran where it says "any slight to the Muslim people must be avenged with the use of explosives and pyrotechnics to blow the living hell out of anyone unlucky enough to get in the way."
Of course such actions are justified... hang on, I've just realised that all the corner shops that used to be owned by whites in my neighbourhood when I was a kid are now owned by Asian muslims.... I must avenge this inequality... where did I put the semtex?

Mr.Mister you seem like a reasonable man,Well! So am I !Do you think western people like me,do not shed tears when we see Palestinian or Muslims being killed .That's not because I am Christian,but because I am a human being.The rest of the world is just like me(or most people are):they cannot see any justification for the act that the old woman committed.Two wrongs do not make a right.

Israel is targeted by the UN because the UN wants to destroy Israel, the UN would not be sorry if Iran did nuke Israel, neither would the Europeans.

Whatever the facts it is wrong to murder anyone whoever is doing it for whatever reason.
Perhaps you can explain why religion causes more war and fighting than anything else?
