What is your answer I wonder? What do you suggest? What is the course of action that needs to be taken to achieve peace? Please specify your road-map for peace. I am seriously curios to know your answer.

Obviously, there is no simple solution. Indeed, there is no overall solution, just the enabling of a scenario which is less awful than others.

It starts with kids. When a child is born, it has no prejudices, no agenda, no religion, no fanaticism. All that becomes molded - mostly by parents, but also by a plethora of others and outside influences. If all newborns could be taken to a safe nurturing place where they could be brought up without hate-filled indoctrination, that would be a start. But alas, not remotely possible in the Middle East.

 

 

So your solution would be, if only there were some way to do it, to take all newborns away from their parents and put them in some - presumably government run - "safe place"?  If you're going to do THAT, let's just go one step better and start controlling who can & can't even HAVE children...  Don't say it can't be done; the Chinese sort of have.

 

We could call it "Popular Socialism"!

The road map to peace would be the Palestinians having equal rights to their Israeli cousins including the right to return.

Imagine Netnayahu giving them back the West Bank for starters including all the settlements and the new roads and infrastructure.

The next step might be Israel allowing UN inspectors in to Dimona to check out their nuclear programme to ensure Iran and others it was for electricity generation only.

To grant unconditional right of return to any Arab who wants to live in the borders of Israel would mean the end of Israel as a majority Jewish state. Israel would never agree to that, and should never agree to that. The reason Israel was founded was to be the ONLY majority Jewish state in the world. The Jews are a people with a VERY SMALL POPULATION and are not interested in conversions of others. Arabs (largely Muslim and also Christian) are in no such demographically vulnerable state and comprise of religions that actively convert. Arabs have MANY populous Arab ethnic majority states, and there are over FIFTY Islamic majority nations. 

 

Yes, ONE for Jews in Israel, a TINY one actually, that is somehow not tolerable to the world. w00t.gif

That's pretty amazing, don't you think?

 

Therefore I find your "peace" suggestion transparently disingenuous. It is quite simply a plan to end Israel. I am sure Israel would respond ... you know we're not that stupid, mate.

This thread is about anger mounting as the death toll rises in Gaza.  Not a single thing in your post is related to the topic.

Of course and that is exactly what their enemies desire. It ain't ever going to happen.

 

Now that Hamas have violated - yet another  - truce and are shooting rockets into Israel again, expect that death toll to keep rising. It is ALL on Hamas as they refuse to stop the violence and they refuse to honor their agreements.

Israel is showing it's true colors.
Imagine the outcry if an Israeli school was blown up! This is now pathetic!
UG, JT and co, bring on your excuses! ('Terror tunnels', 'Rockets' 'wipe off map' 'only democracy' 'anti-termite' etc etc etc...)

 

No excuses, I just leave you with one thought, if Israel wasn't humanitarian in it's operations,

there will be 10,000 dead and Gaza would be flat by now, much like the Russian did to Chechnya,

the Sri Lankan to the Tamil people, and Assad doing to his own people, do I need to go on?

 

 Sri Lankan to the Tamil people

 

What absolute bull scrap!

How do you define terrorism? People you like are civilians and others are terrorists?

Do you know what terrorism did for 30 years?

Please, I beg... dont advertise your ignorance on world matters.

It would be good if YOU come today and see how things are where terror reigned before.

These are the attitudes that encourage terror in this world.

Dude, I was only responding to Mr. Sata's so called plan for peace. Why are you shouting at me? I know of course ... the truthiness in my post is something you don't want broadcasted.

Over time... maybe not in my lifetime.. when peace one day descends, Israel one way or another will absorb Palestinians and they will meld with the Israeli Jews to become a single state.

 

And students in 100 years time will wonder what all the fighting was actually about.

The more Israel drags its heels and puts obstacles in the way (colonies expansion in West Bank, new preconditions) of a just peace agreement, the more a 2 state solution begins to look like a one state solution.

 

I think Israel is staggering blindly over to the wrong side of the history and the refuge for persecuted Jews that its founding fathers originally envisaged.

Tell that to the parents of the 67 Israelis that Netanyahu has just sacrificed with less to show for their blood than if on June 12th he had treated the kidnapping of the 3 Israeli teens as a regular homicide investigation, and accepted John Kerry's efforts to negotiate a permanent peace.

If you want to coin that term, go ahead. Popular Socialism might be the least crappy of all the crappy options for that region. Obviously biz-as-usual isn't working. Parents of Palestinians fill their kids' heads full of hate and vindictiveness and quixotic hopes of destroying Israel. Then, when a boy is old enough to carry a rifle, an elderly Imman will compel the boy to die for a quixotic cause.

An interesting dynamic is flaring up in the US which relates in a roundabout way to the posts above and to the problems in M.E.: Tens of thousands of Latino boys and girls are risking dire harm by sneaking in to the US. The US feels obliged to shelter them. When US gov't does anything, it always spends mucho dinero. So each kid (average age: 14) will get lawyers, shelter, food, counseling, etc. It could amount to tens of thousands of $$'s per kid. I'm not saying it's good or bad, but merely pointing out how US officialdom feels an obligation to care for those youngsters - who also come from failed states (similar to Gaza).

Now segue to the M.East. Look at the map that Jingthing posted with Arab States all around. If the map included all Muslim majority countries in that region, it would be twice as big. Do other Muslim countries take emigrants? If not, why not? Couldn't be indifference, could it?

Right. Sacred angel just like Bin Laden.

Heart (and mouth) full of love.

Actions full of hate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmed_Yassin

Actions speak louder than words.

 

There are others much less cunning than Yassin  too, by the way:

Since we are on the topic of Gaza death toll...
Even the traditionally anti-Israeli and Pro-Palestinian BBC had to admit that Hamas' provided casualty figures have been "inaccurate" and questions the claim that the IDF attacked "indiscriminately".


Well since it is 2014 we do not need bar charts or anyone's word
We see actual footage of dead or crippled men, women & children daily.
What either side says the number is irrelevant what we see is heart wrenching period.

Yep, facts no longer matter anymore. Only anti-Israeli bias rules! That's also some kind of mania I guess. (pun intended)


Perhaps your definition of facts is different?
For me Facts= "a thing that is indisputably the case."

 

What we see is fact

As I previously said the number is irrelevant as 5-10 would be too much.

Hundreds? More? Well I think  you can guess yes?

 

Instead the JDL types would like to trivialize deaths by claiming it is only 500 not 600? etc???

Yeah no arguments here just facts

The fact I stated is what I have seen of Israel's attacks is heart wrenching

 

Play your anti-Israel card elsewhere as it is worn thin here.

When folks denounce someone like North Korea's nut job Kim Jong-un

Do you assume they hate all North Koreans? Hate the country North Korea?

Sounds silly doesn't it? Now you know how yours & others anti Israel claims/defense sounds too.

So a military operation in a condense populated & very hostile urban area, full of Hamas armed guerrilla militants, hidden rockets, bombs & civilians used as human shields supposed to have less than 5-10 casualties?

Wow. How about no casualties at all?

 

Your analogy is severely flawed. 

Since North Korea is not compared with another country or nation, just have its regime/government/army being denounced for its atrocities on its own innocent civilians (not suicide bombers or any terrorists), I assume that indeed these folks hate the NK regime/government/army. Of course not the people.

 

In Israel's case, it's being compared with another "nation", and the criticism for its self-defense actions to protect its own residents from ongoing terror attacks is far from being balanced. 

I wonder how would Russia, Turkey or Syria react to such terror attacks on their lands and how would the world respond to them. Oh, wait! These already happened/happening.

Did you also post your thoughts on those threads? Or is your deep sympathy and "progressive" opinion is reserved only to pity the poor Hamas terrorists and condemnation of Israel's self-defense actions?

You can't make a peace treaty with Hamas, they are pure evil and will break every single one, no question about it.

They have to be totally eradicated, by any means.

Noam Chomsky ... "a Jew himself" ... now that settles it! facepalm.gif

No it does not,If it settles anything is only that he is a Jew,

but it does illustrate that there are opposing views to yours in both sides of the divide, and that not all Jews are of the same mindset.

I am really disappointed in you Jingthing, as a member of an oppressed minority , I would think you would be a little more sympathetic toward an other, but I guess, at the very least, one good thing come out of it, your attitude serves to illustrate that gay people are just like every one else.  Some good , some bad, some smart some stupid, some compassionate,others not, in an other word, just human.

 

Your logic is flawed.

 

Gay people are supposed to support a radical Islamist Jihadist terror organization that:

 

treats its women as chattel

murders its gay people

is dedicated to a genocidal agenda against Jews

murders any internal dissenters

uses it's own children as human shields knowing they will be killed when they launch rockets. for purposes of getting pictures to use for international propaganda

 

Not quite, dude.

 

You continue to disappoint me

I would think that you at least would know the danger of engaging in generalizations about people.

Any people

and would know that as all Gays are not alike, so not all Muslims are alike.

and frankly your assertion that for some (faulty) reasoning  they deserve what they get, is, to say the very least.

disgusting.
