Question

If 34 Israeli jews were killed, Steven Spielberg would make a boring movie about it.

Answer 1

Arab lives are not as worthy as Jewish lives. This is Zionist thought and a way of life. And, it has permeated the American media and of course our government. Non-Jews do not hold the same worth as Jews.

When a brave American in politics or in the media does manage to speak or write the truth of what Israelis do to Palestinians, they suffer for it with blacklists, protests, job loss,character assasinations and death threats(former president Jimmy Carter, former professor Norman Finkelstein and more)and strawman candidates put up by Jewish interest groups( former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney & others). And journalists are removed from their jobs(contracts bought out) or their location and of course are called anti-semitic by other journalists(usually rightwing radio slimballs who serve the administration and Israeli interests) and ,of course, the Jewish Lobby [ex.: Ashley Banfield (who reports stateside on fluff now) Chris Matthews and Geraldo Rivera( both do not mention Palestinian suffering anymore)].

Answer 2

No mainstream media coverage in the United States what with the AIPAC thing and all. But I'd bet my life it got mainstream coverage in Europe.
The European media doesn't suffer fools gladly. They report what IS...as I found during the time I spent there. And to the fool known as "Truth", don't you believe for one MINUTE that a Palestinian parent has EVER strapped a bomb to a child. Where in the hell do you get your information?

Edit to Sparhawk: that Palestinian family having a seaside picnic that was blown away by missiles launched from an Israeli 'copter was a real threat, wasn't it? Why does Israel merely have to say "Oops, we made a mistake, my bad!" and the U.S. public buys it?

Answer 3

rape? that's too big a lie even for a hamas supporter. in fact, israel was accursed for not raping(!!!) palestinian females i'll cite to you one of my previous answers: there was a sociological research paper i'd seen a few years ago, and the main thesis of it was (i don't remember the exact phrasing) that the the IDF soldiers not rape the palestinian woman, because they racists, and they not consider those woman as humans on their level. as no IDF soldier ever raped a palestine female, but your purpose is apparently to slander the Israeli army maybe you should use this approach for your propaganda purposes? (why i got a feeling that the intellectual level of the discussions sank below sea level in this topic?) edit: i admit didn't read the whole thing you wrote because your introduction was untrue so i concluded the rest coming from you would be as authentic. that's the reason me referring only to the first 1-2 sentences.

Answer 4

Don't you know? Israelis are the "good guys", they can do no wrong. And if you say differant, you're an anti-semite. If you want a good, well researched book that tells both sides of the story, read "War without end" by Anton La Guardia. You'll find out that while we probably still should support Israel in general, there really aren't any "good guys" on either side of the struggle anymore.

Answer 5

Ever since the IDF began using phosphorus bombs and land mines, the media has under-reported events in that part of the world. Last summer they were killing civilian Lebanese Christians, and the U.S. virtually ignored it - maybe because we sell them the weapons. Once renowned for their ethics, precision, and efficiency, the IDF has degenerated into bloodthirsty killers, no better than their adversaries. Perhaps the U.S. is advising them?

Answer 6

Quick we better buy Israel more missles to slaughter Palestinians with, they might be running low.

How many were women and Children?
How many were Christians?

The mainstream media won't touch thre fact that Hamas was elected as the legal government because the Christian population of the Occupied Area voted for Hamas.

Answer 7

I think you should join the Palestinians who strap bombs on their children. You could do the same and find out if their are 72 palaces with 72 virgins waiting for you. Then we would not have stupid Lib crap like this.

And seeing you favor terrorist why don't you go and hug Iran's Imams while your at it.

You libs are traitors.

How many innocent Jews must die for you Democrat KKK Nazis to be seen for who you really are and the Jewish lobby here stops supporting the left.

Keep it up and this will not take to long for them to see all of you on the left.
And are you a member of the ACLU by the way or working for Obama bin ladens campaign?

Answer 8

Agree with Dog Snoop..AIPAC is the culprit.

Answer 9

How many buses and classrooms have Palestinian homicide bombers blown up, killing innocent Israeli children? I have no sympathy, both sides are guilty.

Answer 10

The point you have to constantly keep forgetting is that Israel is responding to cowardly attacks by their enemies. But you will never be able to see that due to your own prejudice.
