Where have you been since 2001?

The only way to stop any conflict is if one side can practice restraint. The greater of the two powers naturally has to carry the bigger burden.

This could have been a great opportunity for them to show a bit of mercy, but now we're going to go back into the same cycle of fear mongering and blame.

Hell, they could have even used this as a diplomatic opportunity to come to term settlements.

You're right... they could curl up in a ball and cry Uncle to Hamas. THEN Hamas will admire them for their restraint and will want to live peacefully beside the Jooos and all will be forgotten!

Right?

Yup, Right in the middle of a war a group is standing around shooting rifles into the air having a party. So other than that what did you think of the wedding.

It is astounding the amount of weddings we target! One after another after another!

Face it we can sing and dance and pretend but it won't change the fact is was Hamas and likely
from inside Israel. The Egypt thing is really a non starter her. We seem so reluctant to blame or
mention a specific group. Who else would have the resources and the capability to carry out this
mission.
Everyone is ready with a click of a button to condemn Israel and sometimes they deserve it but
we wait with silence and suspicion when it comes to pointing out the culprits on the other side.
The only other group is Hezbollah, and they operate mainly in the north from the area of Syria
and Lebanon.
I would bet this is Hamas and from within the country itself. Lets just call a spade a certain kind of
shovel. and get on with it.

I guess I'm just a joo hater, aren't I?
Undetermined.

Couldn't they have at least waited to find out who it was before dropping bombs??!?
From your own post...

Israeli security forces tracked down some of the assailants and killed seven in a gunbattle, she added. Almost immediately Israel said the attackers came from the Gaza Strip and made their way through Sinai, which borders both Israel and Gaza.
Dude, it's the Israeli defense minister - of course he's going to say that.
Step one, The Israelis are lying.

That's like asking Peter McKay if it's worth sending NATO in for maple syrup extraction.
Step two, mock.

There was no proper investigation before they decided to start bombing people.
Step three, start making claims with absolutely no proof.

Even if it was Hamas, that still doesn't mean you should just go bomb your enemies.
Step four, pass judgment based on your emotions.

The only way to stop any conflict is if one side can practice restraint. The greater of the two powers naturally has to carry the bigger burden.
Step five, hold Israel to a higher standard.

This could have been a great opportunity for them to show a bit of mercy, but now we're going to go back into the same cycle of fear mongering and blame.
Step six, denial and shifting of blame.

Hell, they could have even used this as a diplomatic opportunity to come to term settlements.
Step seven, claim missed opportunities, because of Israel's alleged wrong doing.

Maybe not a Joo hater, but you're getting there.

This is pretty f'd up.
I agree. You should try and change, before it's to late.

It's messed up but are you really surprised at this point?
Not at all. The usual suspects always turn it back on Israel.

This government is completely insane, extremist right-wing nutjobs.
You got that right, you nailed Hamas succinctly.


You have a photo album for your personal photos. Stop wasting band width.

Nice costume by the way. I wasn't all that surprised that you dress up like a super hero. Your chosen name, how apropos.

Oh yeah... we always seem to bomb weddings and nothing else. Odd isn't it?
Another failed try at deflection. People who live in glass houses....

By the way, that was 5 weddings by 2008. How many since?

And why, again, are they in the middle of a war zone?

I have been saying, do not mess with Israel. They probably will never learn.


"The PRC said its commander, Kamal al-Nairab, his deputy, Immad Hammad, and three other members were killed in the Israeli air strike on a home in the southern Gaza town of Rafah.
The faction vowed revenge for the attack, which hospital officials said also killed a two-year-old son of the owner of the house. Locals earlier gave the boy's age as nine.
"The people who gave the order to murder our people and hid in Gaza are no longer among the living," Netanyahu said on television. "I set a principle: when someone harms the citizens of Israel, we react immediately and with force.""

Yeah regardless of the fact that they're mostly killing innocent civilians including children.. Israel is a true lunatic state.

We know already know you find it irrelevant and ok that Hamas and Palestinian militants target Israeli children and women.

You did have to tell us again.

Israel is a true lunatic state.
I agree. Why they show such restraint is beyond me.

Yep, a terrible thing those soldiers did. Good thing they were charged and convicted. because Israeli law frowns on that sort of thing. Unlike you and you buddies.
Well that saves me from having to prove my comments...

Thanx for proving me right, yet again.

While I disagree with measures to bomb Gaza on principle (their own principle), couldn't they at least wait to properly identify the negligent parties?

Is it that difficult to get a simple confirmation of their identities?

No deflection at all! I am addressing the assertions.

The US attacks wedding after wedding after wedding. We are constantly attacking weddings. At least that is what they are saying. Isn't it astounding how many weddings we attack? It has to be way more than 5 because it seems that every time we drop a bomb it happens to hit a wedding party. At least that is what we are told.

(how absurd)
