Rick,

"when hamas sends some missiles and other forms of explosives into the israeli population for no other reason then to kill jews, the world does not tell them to back off, but when israel retaliates "

And this surprises you?

Rick, sometime about 15 years ago their propaganda became better press than ours and WE became the BAD GUYS (again) The more the world changes, the more it stays the same! I guess it would be OK if Israel only killed the exact amount of civilians as Hamas?

No, it would only be OK if Israel killed EVERY member of Hamas!

For the same reason why people run around claiming that Bush "shredded" the Constitution when he took the same actions that Bill Clinton, FDR, and Abraham Lincoln pursued (and in the case of FDR and Lincoln, Bush did not go to the same extremes they did).

It's called propaganda. Couple this with people's willingness to believe such propaganda, and the wholesale ignorance of the truth, and you get the condition that puzzles you so.

radical left wing nuts

"This is an illegal bombardment by Israel. It is barbaric and it's even more barbaric that it's being done by the Bush Administration," said Hussam Ayloush of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

"There's no doubt that Israel's propaganda machine is working by blaming the victims," he said. "Gaza's people are prisoners in their own land. We depend on the help of the American people."

Protests were also scheduled for later in the day at the Westwood Federal Building and the Israeli Consulate on Wilshire Boulevard just east of Beverly Hills.

Edina Lekovic of the Muslim Public Affairs Council warned that the attacks will only breed extremism in the region.

"Instead of curbing extremism, this is going to breed more militancy on the ground. The actions today only guarantee further bloodshed," she said.

At the Westwood protest, actor Mike Farrell said he is "one of those people horrified by Israel's over-reponse

"Not that I'm in favor of Hamas by any means, because firing rockets into Israel is not the way these things get resolved in a productive way," the longtime activist said.

That whole "State" is entirely dependent on hand-outs . . .

I ask the same question, Rick. I think we should pour ourselves a nice, hot cup of STFU and let them do what they want to do.

Palestine would be annexed in less than 2 weeks... of course, they'd be committing genocide... which I have to assume they are against.

I believe the whole matter could be resolved if Israel would simply agree to the reasonable demand by the Palestinians et al that Israel and the Jews be annihilated. Or is THAT too much to ask, selfish Israelis?!

^They're infidels, Scott, not Israelis. Do your homework, dammit.

My bad. "Infidel dogs, whose blood shall run like rivers through the streets when Allah's will be done!"

(Better?)

don't worry, you will not receive the curse of the maven

for one agreement.

be careful tho, the next one might be the killer.

I don't agree with your politics on a lot of things Rick, but I agree on this one. I believe that Israel should do whatever is necessary to defend itself against the terrorist countries all around it.

Many of the "religion of peace" bozos seem to miss the part about how many muslims have made it their declared goal to eliminate the Jewish people. It is amazing how many people seem to be able to just ignore that part of things.

BECAUSE THE world is screwed up Rick! You tell us this every other day!

Rick,

Because the Jews killed Jesus.
