What i'd like to know is why the Palestinians are still refugees for almost 3 generations now. It seems to me like the arab countries are just keeping them there so they actually cause problems and so they can look miserable and oppressed. Do you not realize that the area is SURRROUNDED by arab countries with money and that they could easily accommodate all the palestinian refugees? If this happened, probably 95% of the problems would be solved, with 5% palestinians who actually wanted their land back.
You guys keep yelling OPRESSION and ITS THEIR LAND but hey, wasn't the arab nations' original intent back in '67 to KILL ALL JEWS DESTROY ISRAEL?? Guess what, Israel won the war and got land! Why should they give it back? That's what I don't understand. When something like this happens to european nations, everyone seems to shrug and not care. Let's bring up an example here...when nazi germany was defeated in wwii, eastern Prussia was divided among the soviet union and Poland. Do you know what happened to the original german populace? They were almost all evacuated back to germany. That was around 2 million people. That native german population has lived there for HUNDREDS of years, but no one seems to be screaming about ATROCITIES or how the poor people are getting kicked out of their country. There are honestly far more examples exactly like this and I really don’t see why the arab countries can’t accommodate the Palestinians, who would not only get a higher standard of living but also end almost all of the violence around the area. Having refugees for so many generations is fucking ridiculous, and it seems pretty clear to me they’re doing it on purpose.
Also, when the georgian conflict happened, russia not only invaded georgia, but they completely destroyed all of their infrastructure and fleet, and there weren’t nearly as many people who cared. China? Nope, not my problem. How come there are so many protests when Israel does something 'wrong' but when far larger humanitarian crises such as darfur happen, not many people seem to care?? I’m not saying that people SHOULDN’T PROTEST when something like this happens, but it seems that Israel gets FAR MORE ATTENTION over other countries.
This is absolutely.. ABSOLUTELY fucking disgusting... Possibly the worst post in the history of GW... This guy must be inri and that other racist, bigoted fool rhuan on a different account. So you think the blood of an Israeli is worth the blood of 550+ Palestinians? You're trying your absolute HARDEST to justify this fucking genocide that will spell the end of a people that have already been kicked out of their homes, and forced into a small strip called the Gaza strip, that essentially packed all of these poor Palestinian people into what people deem as concentration camps. You're making up reasons and getting your facts absolutely WRONG with your useless rhetoric.
I want to also say that the neighbouring Arab countries are really stupid as well by not letting the innocent Palestinians seek refuge into their country, as the arab governments are only looking towards their own self interests and their relations with the western nations (U.S. and Israel), because they're ruled by greedy, money hungry dictators.
Afura: As Ryan said, Israel violated the ceasefire... Read his post so this whole bullshit and state terrorism is solely Israel's fault and I'm not going to say that Hamas are the 'good guys' either because they at least try to do some nasty things but you have to recognize that the Israeli government is in the midst of committing a genocide. They have already (as well as numerous times in the past) violated the UN charter and have committed war crimes against humanity. What they are doing and HAVE already done is completely and utterly criminal and they should be condemned for it. At least 40% of the civilians killed were women and children and overall almost 2/3 if not more than this, were innocent civilians.
The whole world is starting to see the truth of this massacre now. Ever since they blew up that UN school filled with children, I think now the rest of the world is starting to see this WIP genocide and state terrorism perpetuated by this zionist government.

Israeli terrorism and Arab reactions
People in the US don't understand. Our TV screens are not like yours. Your TV screens are reporting the death of the Bush family cat, and our Arab TV screens are showing images of splattered body parts of children all over Gaza. And then Americans wonder why Arabs don't condemn suicide bombings by some Palestinian groups (although some Arabs condemn killings of civilians anywhere). Do you see why? They don't see you condemn the killing and butchery of their children when the Israeli military engages in terrorism on a scale far larger than all the suicide bombings of Hamas in its history. Israeli terrorists killed more in this week than years of suicide bombings. And Palestinians don't see you noticing their victims, and yet you have the audacity of asking them to adhere to your racist standards and only noticing the victims that you deem more precious than the Palestinian victims? If I hear one more American liberal saying: why can't the Palestinians feel for Israeli victims, I may toss obscenities at you.
