But as long as you occupy people because you say their race of religion is different you will create the type of situation that leads to what you have now

ok this is a new one for me....we are occupying the palestenians because of THEIR RELIGION and RACE! oh boy...any help here from my usual adversaries?

sheesh.....you dont know a whole lot about the population and citizens of israel either that or something is clouding your eyes.

We are occupying them cause of a war in 67, and we are continuing to occupy them today for a variety of political/military and religious reasons..nothing and I repeat nothing has to do with either the religion or race of the palestenains in the westbank or gaza.


sheeesh...where did that come from! (somebody doesnt know much about israel dispite the vast amount of info available.....)

and as far as your comment that "terrorist acts do not justify persecution of a larger population"...in a perfect world I agree, in my world of harsh choices and reality, its the only thing that stops it in the short run...and its the only thing that succeeded and continues to do so.....until the next opportunity comes along in a august/september

and for the final comment.....i understand you have been in the westbank and israel, so you have seem much of what actually goes on-me too.
