German Foreign Minister Westerwelle calls Gaza blockade unacceptable

land grab after land grab

You kind of forgot the part where the other parties threaten to annihilate them, attack them first and lose every single time - spoils of war.

how to start a war!

Throughout history, war planners have used various forms of deception to trick their enemies. Because public support is so crucial to the process of initiating and waging war, the home population is also subject to deceitful stratagems. The creation of false excuses to justify going to war is a major first step in constructing public support for such deadly ventures. Perhaps the most common pretext for war is an apparently unprovoked enemy attack. Such attacks, however, are often fabricated, incited or deliberately allowed to occur. They are then exploited to arouse widespread public sympathy for the victims, demonize the attackers and build mass support for military “retaliation.”

Like schoolyard bullies who shout ‘He hit me first!’, war planners know that it is irrelevant whether the opponent really did ‘throw the first punch.’ As long as it can be made to appear that the attack was unprovoked, the bully receives license to ‘respond’ with force. Bullies and war planners are experts at taunting, teasing and threatening their opponents. If the enemy cannot be goaded into ‘firing the first shot,’ it is easy enough to lie about what happened. Sometimes, that is sufficient to rationalize a schoolyard beating or a genocidal war.

Do you mean to say that the tiny country of Israel purposely started a war with 4 giant Arab countries with 4 giant Arab armies and somehow got them to attack first - by slight of hand - on numerous occasions over decades?

I am starting to detect a pattern in your posts.

I still think the arabs need to get off the Bedouin lands. Once the Bedouin people are freed from the yoke of oppression imposed by Jordanian immigrants, then there can be a discussion.

I detect a pattern in your 20.000+ posts as well, you're sick, see a doctor, get a life.

The whole problem started when Israel was "created " on land that belonged to other people, that's why those people call it "the nakhba"

The whole problem will end when Israel either makes peace, or seizes to exist. To be honest, I prefer the latter !!

The hand book for the Israel/Zionism apologist is very simple and consists of 4 main rules only :

1) No matter what happens Israel is always right and the Palestinians, Hizbollah, Hamas, Syria, Iran and Arabs and Moslims in general are always wrong

2) In other parts of the world worse attrocities are committed, so whatever Israel does is not so bad

3) People that dare to be critical of Israel are humiliated and ridiculed

4) When running out of arguments, play the anti semitism card, always guaranteed to work.

I am going for a swim, the weather is too nice to bother reading your crap, as you seem to have an endless supply of it...

You say Israel must either make peace or "Seize" (sic) to exist.

May I ask what you propose doing with the 7.5 million residents of Israel? Are they to become loyal subjects of Hamas and, thus, convert to Islam or do you have another solution to the problem?

Anti-Semitism seems to be a reasonable argument in your case.

Enjoy your swim.

[powderpuff]

Completely stupid.

The Israeli's simply need to vet cargo to prevent weapons & explosives from entering the "territory".

It ain't a sovereign nation yet.

Perfectly within their rights.

Freaking libs just don't have a clue.

If your not prepared to pick up a rifle & defend Israel form terrorists shut your trap. TIA.

Where would you get such an idea!!!

Why Westerwelle never mention in Israel the crime of the ring of suspects used forged documents of claime funds paid by Germany by Germanyt to the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany Claims Conference JCC.??

FBI investigators on Tuesday arrested 17 people in New York in connection with a $42.5 million organized fraud against a compensation fund for Holocaust victims.

The U.S. Attorney's Office is charging the 17, who include six current and former staff members of the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany Claims Conference, which issues payments to Jewish Holocaust victims, with making false financial claims using false documents.

Norman Finkelstein is right with his book.
