Jews seem to think that Jewish life is more important than that of non-Jews.

Well Frank, the Palestinians don't have American taxpayer supplied F-16s to do their killing from the air now do they?

Well TS, I think it's more correct to say that Jews value JEWISH life more than any others. And it is obvious that you have never met any Muslims. They do not celebrate the suicide of their children. This is a hateful, racist Jewish canard. They are gracious welcoming people, the very opposite of the vast majority of Jews that I've met over the years.

Most people support their country, especially when it is constantly under attack. Perhaps when the bombing stops, the Jews in Israel will be able to think less about their loyalties and be able to get on with normal life more easily, which they want to do.
I suppose you could just as easily say that Muslims support Palestine, no matter how many innocent people this country kills.

I disagree. I am Jewish and I support Israel. Israel does not think that one life is more valuable than another. However, Israel is almost 100% of the time defending itself. The bible clearly says, an eye for an eye, life for a life. When Palestinians, etc.. attacke Israeli cafes and kill innocent Israeli citizens, Israel has the right to attack the aggressors. Israel tris everything they can to avoid loss of civilian life, but sometimes that is unavoidable. Israel is no better than America. America goes wherever it wants and says they are there for diplomatic reasons, and kill thousands of Iragis, Pakistanis, etc.. Is an American life more important than an Iragi, Pakistani or Afghani life? No. Should America have retaliated by bombing Afghanistan? Apparently, at the time, the majority of America felt that retaliation was justified. So, don't assume that Jewish people value Jewish life over any other life, because Americans are doing the same thing right now.

I don't know from where you have such a ludicrous opinion. This question is a clear indication of how ignorant people are on what the historical facts regarding the mideast, and how the Arafat y"sh
and his people continue to re-write world history with the support of the UN and other partisan groups. If only Muslim mothers loved their children more than they hated Jews, there would be peace in the world. No other group of "civilized" people have glorified suicide the way they do. Jews value all life above all else, since they believe that everything comes from G-d.

Your premise is false, as you know.

As we know, the Israelis pulled out totally from Gaza in the summer of 2005. The optimistic intention and hope was that the Palestinians would build a self-sustaining society in Gaza, based on the innovative and profitable hothouses left by the Israelis.

Instead of this, the Hamas and other Muslim terrorist groups immediately began daily bombardment of Israel with Qassam missiles, targeting the innocent Israeli civilian population.

Now these terrorists have been "successful" and killed Israelis. Then they accepted a ceasefire and immediately violated it time and time again.

Clearly, the Israel Defense Forces have the capability of flattening Beit Hanoun, the town from which the Hamas terrorists have launched hundreds of missiles.

Why does Israel not flatten this part of Gaza to stop the murderous attacks? What other military action should Israel take to defend its citizens?

Hundreds, if not thousands, of Jews all over the country have demonstrated to demand an end to the bombing of Gaza and Lebanon. In one of these demonstrations, 17 Jewish protesters were arrested in an act of civil disobedience.

Thousands of Jews have signed a petition demanding that the United States intervene to stop the wanton killing of Lebanese civilians by the Israeli war machine.

Jewish organizations that sponsor such demonstrations and petitions, such as Jewish Voice for Peace http://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/ , are experiencing exponential growth. Jews are looking for ways to express their outrage at the actions of the Israeli government, and of the blind support accorded by the Jewish establishment in this country.

I assume the "this country" means Israel. 1. it is their country.They should be loyal. 2. Military targets are fair game. it is up to the people with the targeted places to get their civilians out of harms way. Their death is not on israels shoulders. Its on the govt. the "innocent" ones belonged to. 3. Until the middle east agrees that Isreal has the right to be a sovereign nation, there will be trouble.--

inspite of updated will advance in US giving to cut back poverty, US help as a % of private earnings is 2d to final between rich countries, with even almost all of this having strings related, going to American businesses in those international places and being tied to commerce deals, which recommend the money must be spent on American products. You supply approximately 25 cents according to American according to day day in distant places help; with inner maximum giving, yet another dime. It’s plenty, in finished, as a results of fact there are a number of us. inspite of the undeniable fact that it’s far at the back of the point of sacrifice made by human beings in maximum more desirable countries. under a million/2 of help from the USA is going to the poorest international places the main important recipients are strategic allies including Egypt, Israel, Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iraq. Israel is the richest united states of america to acquire U.S. suggestions ($seventy seven according to Israeli whilst in comparison with $3 according to person in undesirable international places). take a glance on the chart under of how plenty the richest international places supply, Swedent the main beneficiant united states of america supplies 112 cents for each hundred funds earned in the rustic, in 9th place you have the united kingdom which components fifty two cents, then way down in nineteenth place out of the 22 international places indexed comes the U. S. who supply an insignificant 20 cents according to $a hundred funds made. i think of a extra constructive question could be why do united statesa. supply so little distant places help and why does this form of huge share bypass in militia spending to assist Israel and . maybe yet another sturdy question is why do the american media perpetuate the myth of united statesa.'s generosity to the poorest human beings in the worldwide whilst it basically isn't real.

Gee...What a loaded question....Why don't you just come out and say you hate the Jews???? Oh, and I don't see a lot of Jews strapping bombs to their children and blowing up supermarkets. Talk about valuing life... point the finger at the guilty.

I think it is because Israel is a small country surrounded by larger nations that want to drive them into the sea.
