"Personally I would reactivate the New Jersey and sit over there and toss 16 inch shells into Gaza and Lebanon..."

That's because you are a sick mother#&%!$er with homicidal fantasies.

Lay off the Big Macs, Nigal. I think one of the major arteries to your brain is blocked.

The only way Israel can defend itself is with the cluster bombs we sold them. Otherwise, they're just another scrapper in the sand box. Israel's role to "stability" in the region is only such because we allow it)and I assume by stability, we're talking about a location from which to nuke the rest of the ME. I guess if you still believe the whole MAD scenario works, then have at it. The U.S. is consistently a victim of a thousand cuts.

What was that Xlax? I thought we went over to free those poor enslaved and spit upon Iraqis from the throes of mean, cruel and evil dictator? I guess our relative moralism is site specific. Long-time alies? The freakin' country has only been around since 1947.

I'm not sayin' there aren't some crazy mofo in the ME, but propping up govt.s through arms sales is a lame way to instill "peace."

I freely admit my understanding of ME politics is marginal. I've got some reading to do. But the point of my initial posting wasn't to get into a debate about Israel's right to exist (which I allowed doughboy to sucker me into), I was really to discuss the crazy, dualistic philosophy this country has of blowing shlt up (and let's face it, we blew up Gaza) and then spending millions and billions rebuilding it. It seems like the funds could be much better spent elsewhere.

Israel is a second home for some americans, but the symmetry of our flag won't allow fifty one.

Its pretty simple...the only country that does not have it in their charter to destroy a country is Isreal. The rest of them intend on the destruction of Isreal...just because.

The real truth is that if we weren't reining in Israel, there would be no Palestinian problem. Israel would have already solved it.

That's my point. I doubt they would kill every Palestinian in the world, but they may have pushed them off the bank. They may have completely filled the bank with Jewish settlements. They may have done many things that we might not imagine to eliminate the State of Palestine. But we have not let them. No more than we will let the Palestinians, the Arabs, Iran or anyone else, eliminate Isreal.

There's too much money to be made selling fired once ammo clips to the Israeli army. It's best to keep them feuding.

"I doubt they would kill every Palestinian in the world, but they may have pushed them off the bank. They may have completely filled the bank with Jewish settlements. They may have done many things that we might not imagine to eliminate the State of Palestine".

Partial extermination and ethnic cleansing of human beings from their homes does not seem like a good way of making peace.

There is only two ways that peace will ever exist between Israel and the Palestinians. When Palestinians formally and emotionally acknowledge Isreal's right to exist. Or when one side or the other achieves total victory.

All it would take is for the Palis to lay down their weapons and bargain in good faith. But, they already showed the world that they're not really interested in nationhood.

Jews can't procreate near as fast as Palis. Is that a contraction of Palins?

Mark, do you remember the year 2000 or were you too stoned? The Palis were offered a contiguous nation - 97% of what they claimed the wanted. They refused it - basically without bargaining at all. Even Clinton called the failure of the Palis to accept nationhood an historical mistake. It's unbelievable that I have to teach you about recent history.

If the Arabs would lay down their weapons there'd be peace. If the Israelis lay down their weapons there'd be no more Israelis.

Like I said, the only way to end the conflict is to let the two fight till there is a winner or for the palis to acknowledge Isreal's right to exist. Isreal can live next to a Palestinian state, but they can't live next to people who want them pushed into the sea. The Palestinians can end this war at any time. Isreal can only end it when the palis do.

One quick read through the Palestinian Charter will make it plain that peace is not in their plans and there will never be compromise with them.

Suck it, XLax.

"If the Arabs would lay down their weapons there'd be peace."

And:
If the Arabs would accept their fate as second class citizens in a land where they have lived for hundreds of years.

If they give up "right of return" to the places they were "cleansed" from.

In the sixty years since the formation of the State of Israel why can't these groups work it out?

*facepalm* - they've BOTH lived there for hundreds of years. Arabs in Israel enjoy freedoms and opportunity most others in the ME lack.
