(18,184 posts)There's bigger stuff happening in Iraq.
But maybe that was the plan all along, to keep us distracted with an issue where there are two sides so the Punch & Judy show can continue.
Meanwhile ISIS, which everyone allegedly hates, is allowed to run amok without the world lifting a finger.

It seems any and everywhere we intervene things get worse. For instance look at South America, we've created a mess there also over the years

This is unacceptable what Israel is doing with their squeezing the Palestinian people to the point that the Palestinians have to do something even if it is in vain. You can't just let a bully keep on kicking you and not at some point fight back. Israel has been bullying them for decades now and it needs to be brought to a stop

Until the rest of the planet can enforce international law and punishment for war crimes, this planet is doomed.
The bullies will declare that anyone who isn't with them is against them; they will declare them terrorists and then it's kill, kill kill.
Notice that Israel has increasingly used this 'collective punishment' approach since Bushco declared that illegal war and occupation in Iraq.

Israel needs and has to be STOPPED and the sooner the better.

Notice how the media never mentions the massive weaponry of Israel while talking rockets all day long?
