31. Fear is the wrong word
Brod ,   USA   (04.14.10)
It will only embolden the Islamist-Jihadists to become more belligerent. Israel should deter them through strength. Should they embark on the path of chaos and riots, Israel should impose Law and Order on them by expelling the ring leaders and masterminds from the Land of Israel.
32. misleading quotes from Alan Dershowitz
Richard L ,   France   (04.14.10)
Alan Dershowitz! You mean the man that Norman Finklestein exposed as a plagiarist? You mean the same man that misquoted Goldstone and then bitterly criticised him for things that he (Goldstone) never wrote? You must be soft in the head if you believe anything Dershie writes!
33. #22 Vanessa-You can talk till you are..
Janice Cohen ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (04.14.10)
blue in the face, these people are not interested in facts, history, etc., only in some kind of fantasy dreamworld where they are "freedom fighters" struggling for some non-existant "truth" which the average western cannot comprehend nor should it.

Learn your history Ramla bombing was an isolated incident in revenge for countless Arab atrocities. Since the British occupation forces supported the Arabs and did not protect Jewish civilians, the Jews felt they had no choice. But it remains an isolated incident. Deir Yassin was no massacre but a bloody battle against well-armed Iraqi soldiers. Arab eyewitnesses at the time had no idea what Ben Gurion (who wanted to defame Begin) was talking about. As for Kfar Etzion, you are confused. At the end of a bloody battle between the Kibbutz and the elite British-commanded Jordanian Legion, about 130 Jews surrendered. The Arabs proceeded to massacre the unarmed prisoners. But you forget to mention Shamir and Begin were wanted because of the attack on King David Hotel of Jewish fighters against the British occupation forces. I hope that is because you agree that an attack on the illegal British colonial presence was justified.
35. Neither # 18 nor # 26 are posts by Jehudah Ben-Israel
Jehudah Ben-Israel ,   Qatzrin, Israel   (04.14.10)
These as well as a number of posters before them are fake ones, a bad attempt to prevent a proper discourse of the matters at hand. And all, because the factually based arguments that I present are too much for this impersonator to deal with. Sad! Indeed, sad that this is the Muslim-Arabs and their advocates here deal with reality...!!
36. Israel wants Palestinians to quietly accept
Fadi   (04.14.10)
Israel wants the Palestinians to quietly bow their heads and accept the occupation of their lands. They want Palestinians to submit to Israeli authority and domination. Well too bad! If you don't want rocks and stones thrown at you, then END YOUR ILLEGAL OCCUPATION and REMOVE YOUR ILLEGAL SETTLERS from the lands. .

Shulamit, believe it or not, Noor lives in the US !!
38. #7 Nour-Are'nt you in the least bit..
Mike M. ,   Seattle, Wa.   (04.14.10)
worried that your "violent resistance" could lead to another full-blown tragedy for your people ? After all they are not exactly known for their competence or good judgement..
39. # 34 Zionists terrorism in the Mandate days
Ben Alofs ,   BANGOR, Gwynedd   (04.14.10)
The 1946 King David Hotel bombing by the Irgun was a terrorist attack by any definition. Although it did kill British military personell the vast majority of those killed were innocent civilians, Arabs and Jews. At least 15 Jewish civilians died. Zionist terrorists were the first to invent the use of the carbomb. They placed it in crowded market places. Ramle was certainly not an eception. There were several such attacks in Jerusalem and in Haifa. Some of them organized by Irgun and Stern. Others by the Hagana. As far as the ethnic cleansing campaign in 1948/49 against the native Palestinian Arab population is concerned, Aryeh Yitzhaki, an Israeli historian, who served as director of the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) archives, researched massacres during the 1948 war. He attests that in almost every conquered village, Zionist forces committed war crimes such as indiscriminate killings, massacres and rapes. Palestinian testimony confirms atrocities in numerous villages, including Nasir al-Din, Burayr, Hawsha, and Ayn al-Zaytun. Yithaki's research of the IDF archives records at least TEN major massacres, which he defines as more than 50 victims each. He also acknowledges the enormous impact of massacres in precipitating Arab flight. Other researchers found evidence of massacres in 33 villages or towns. Deir Yasin is only the tip of the iceberg.
