Re: Hypocritical? You be the judge

I'm not necessarily saying I would do the same in Israels shoes, but as a third party I don't think you have a right to judge the Isreali's given the history.

For instance, I don't think people in...

Re: Palestinians

I agree that Isreal should withdraw, such would be a prudent policy. They can't hold onto the lands, and it isn't helping them strategically. Now that they have nuclear weapons they don't need...

However, I don't think they have any moral...

Re: Palestinians

I don't have a lot of sympathy for the Palestinians. Had the Arabs left Isreal alone, they would still control Gaza and the West Bank, perhaps even more territory. Thier continual efforts to...
