Quote:I'm not cheering anyone on Tallowood. I am trying to get you people to see that there is another side to this conflict and to forget about Hamas and think about the suffering of the people.
It's a bit hard to think about their suffering without your thoughts turning to the people who use them as human shields.
Quote:Howard and Bush have exacerbated this intense hatred for anyone different.
Are you suggesting that the palestinians take notice of what John Howard says? There are some things you can't honesty try to pin on him.
Quote:- If a person attacks you in the street, you should never hit them back, but you should reason with them. They are just poor desperate people looking for money.
I've never heard that silly advice before.
Quote:I am not justifying terrorism - but you seem to overlook the fact that it has come from both sides and as Israel has the more powerful armaments is that supposed to mean they are justified in their massacres?
Likewise, does the fact that the Palestinians are perpetual losers justify their position on destroying Israel, on using women and children as human shields, on sending children over the border as suicide bombers? You cannot negotiate peace with someone who insists that killing you is the only acceptable outcome.
Quote:How would you feel if the same was to happen here? When the aborigines occasionally get a little legal claim to some land, of which they were the original occupants - the fury, the derision, the anger and hate directed towards them proves what an intolerant country Australia is.
Intolerant? How many Australians lob missiles into aboriginal land? How does that even compare? Australians want peace. Hamas loves death like we love life, by their own admission. Even white Australian Muslims like Abu think that Israel has no right to exist and champion another war. Is this a result of him being kicked out of his home by Jews? Do you think the Muslims should be given free riegn to drive the Jews into the sea?
Quote:I know I don't condone genocide Mozzaok - that's a terrible statement to make. Why do you think half the global Jewish population is divided on this issue and those who support Palestine condemn the zionists? Or are they wrong as well?
Mantra the only people promoting genocide are the Palestinians. Which half of the Jewish population thinks Israel has no right to exist? Would that be the anti-semitic Jews? You need to consider what it is they actually disagree on. Stop pretending that any disagreement means that they agree with whatever your position is.
