Criticism of Israel's Enemies

3 Comments

wow - don't be so harsh...

You say you are going to criticize the enemies of Israel but there isn't anything I would call criticism here - you speak of the Palestinians as though they are justified in their actions. You haven’t condemned their tactics are horrific or terrible, just ineffective. You even go so far as to state that to stop the armed response would “[mean] that some recent and some future violent deaths of Palestinians must go unavenged” – this is how you criticize them?

These people aren't on a plight for justice as the African-Americans were in the 60's - they aren't looking for equal educational opportunities or the right to drink from the same water fountain - they want the Israelites to die - they aren't fighting for their homes, they are fighting jihad.

Where is the Martin Luther King's of this group? They aren't even as justified as Malcolm X in his demand for equality. At least Malcolm X was demanding equality albeit by means of force – these people are simply demanding that Christians and Jews die.

I know that not all Palestinians are like this – but your post isn’t to all Palestinians – we are talking about the ones who have decided to strap on bombs and walk into shopping malls.

Palestinians should thank God

for Israel's restraint. How do you deal with them? Remember the effort Bill Clinton went to to boost his legacy--and how pathetic Arafat made him look? If the Palestinians laid down their arms tomorrow it would be the end of violence. If Israel laid down their arms tomorrow, it would be the end of Israel.

Palestine

Palestinians were not shouldered out of the way. They left so as to not be trampled underfoot by the invading Arab armies.

A funny thing happeded on the way to the annihilation of the newly founded state of Israel in 1949: Israel won.

Why should faithlessness be rewarded by the return of abandoned land? Why should those who intended to return to their land, and that of their Jewish neighbors, after Israel was destroyed be rewarded?

They gambled and lost. They bet on a weak horse that they couldn't even sell for dog food.

Turnabout is fair play.
