31. Why Arabs don't like this lcompassionate Jewish occupation?
Jim F. ,   US   (11.05.06)
Jewish occupation killed ONLY 1000+ Palestinians and 1000+ Lebanese in the past few months and destroyed several thousand homes in both countries, why people hate this very nice, compassionate Jewish occupation is difficult to understand, indeed.
32. #1; "Palestine" doesn't exist!
Palestiniansareamyth ,   USA   (11.05.06)
Long live Israel!
33. #31 one-sided view
(11.05.06)
Of course #31 all these "murders" done by the Israelis were just for FUN! How right u r! The poor little innocent terrorists did nothing and were just walking around minding their own business when one day the mean old Israelis just decided to murder them for no reason at all! What we need to do is make sure the terrorists are free and unmolested so they can continue on their innocent and harmless mission of kidnapping, murdering, hijacking planes, and blowing up subways full of civilians while the Israelis show "compassion" by letting them destroy their country and murder their women and children. Good plan, you f-ing imbecile!
34. Make Pals to pay for every rocket they fire.
Albert ,   USA   (11.05.06)
Make Pals to pay for every rocket they fire.
35. 31 BS view: End your occupation in Palestine; problem solved
Jim F. ,   USA   (11.05.06)
I don't see Palestinians going after Mexicans or Japanese, if you can understand this.
36. Complaint.
Stan   (11.05.06)
A man walks into a police station in the PA telling the officer that some people are beating his brother for one hour. The officer asked the man " why didn't you come before to complain." Because before my brother was beating this people very hard, was the answer. By the way the man who complained his name is Abu Mazen.
37. Screw you Margaret Beckett! You are concerened because of
Allan ,   US   (11.05.06)
the mounting death toll of terrorist? You have a lot of nerve. It was the British government policies in the 20's, 30's and 40's that created this situation. Why don't you just crawl back under the rock you came from you maggot.
38. #35 your anology is plain ingorant
jerome ,   basalt, co   (11.05.06)
and you are stupid. You obviously don't understand because you can't see through your prejudice hate. this is apparent from reading your other posting #31 You should move to Afganistan and join the Taliban!
39. 38: What I said too much for your little brain to comprehend
Jim ,   usa   (11.05.06)
I'll make it simple: Look no body is bothering you CO. Hope you want stay calm if someone comes and occupies CO and throws you to Mexico.
40. Jim F. - PALs are focus point of worldwideArab/Moslem terror
Meir Elazar   (11.05.06)
So far the only continent that has not suffered from Arab/Moslem terror(Phillipines,India,Afghanistan,Iraq,London,NY,WashingtonDC,Paris,Amman,Sinai,Egypt,etc), for which PAL terror is the focal point, is Antarctica. When Arabs/Moslems get to Antarctica G-d help the penguins.
41. If Israel had a REAL PM and America had a REAL president
Bunnie Meyer ,   Santa Monica,CA USA   (11.05.06)
the terrorist scum would be history past.
42. tragic whenever innocents are killed, but .....
yonatan ,   nyc   (11.05.06)
the fight against terror must not stop. palestinians need to learn that using themselves as human shields is not a good idea, and won't win sympathy from me. when innocent children are killed that is something else, and i regret any loss of life under those circumstances, but medinat yisrael will not be blackmailed be groups like hamas, and when there are hundreds of rockets being launched into southern israeli towns you can expect this kind of response.
43. to lynne
Niki ,   u.s.a.   (11.05.06)
they did before 1967 did'nt they? king Hussein of Jordan massacred them in "black september", because Arafat caused him so much chaos there.....and eggypt, well eggypt , didn'nt want to take gaza back after they signed the peace treaty with Israel, they new better didn't they? or maybe nobody ever told you this stories?
44. 40 Elazar:Mideast was very quiet prior to Jewish occupation
Jim ,   USA   (11.05.06)
of Palestine and will become very quiet once that problem is taken care of. The rest of crap has no point and doesn’t deserve a response.
45. jim, why dont u go get a life, ok? thenx

46. I'm sorry
Jim ,   USA   (11.05.06)
sometimes i'm just being stupid, i suffer under torrets. hope you guys understand. just ignore my comments. shabat shalom
47. Reply to Abdel
Michael ,   Haifa   (11.05.06)
Abdel, I agree with every word in your analysis. I take issue with what is missing in your analysis, which is the psychological background of Jewish paranoia and fears. It is part of the equation that has to be taken into account and addressed by your side to the dispute. You just have to look at some of the right wing racist talkbackers to understand the depth of the sick paranoid hatred here.
48. France 2
RyanH ,   Ashdod Israel   (11.05.06)
French TV mentions that half of the deaths have been civilian - IDF 3. Who should we believe ? Margaret Beckett - words sum up the world today. The response is so scripted it is laughable - Regrets civilian deaths on "both sides" There has only been one Israeli killed and it was a soldier.
49. 45,46: Truth hurts, US is waking up, not buying media BS
JIM ,   USA   (11.05.06)
More Americans are looking for information from different sources about the mideast. They will get know about the expulsion (don’t wanna say ethnic cleansing) of Palestinians from their homes and country by armed jewish terror groups.
50. Jim, USA has sympathy for the Devil
John ,   NZ   (11.05.06)
51. Lynne
Michael ,   Haifa   (11.05.06)
You may possibly be quite correct, but correctness is not going to solve the problem and I'm sure that you are aware of that. The problem will only be solved by the wisdom of intelligent leaders on both sides in understanding the basic psychology of the other side. Being correct is insufficient, having "street sense" is a necessary condition.
52. #44 Jim - Pal terror began nearly 100 years ago
meir elazar   (11.05.06)
Pal terror began in the 1920's. There was also the Hevron massacre of Jews. Haj Amim Al-Husseini collaborated with Hitler. Since then we have had fight numerous wars for survival. The PALs have always chosen war over peace. They left a negotiating table with an offer of 100% of Gaza and 92% of WB (an offer they will never see again). The have blown up our innocent children with suicide bombs at dolpharium, Sbarro, Mike's, etc. The have exploited our kindness of given them jobs to come back and blow up the Park Hotel and the Heb. Univ. Cafeteria. Their charter unequivocally calls for our destruction. They democratically elected the terrorist HAMAS to their govt. The started the Intifada I and II, they kidnapped Shalit and murdered Eliyahu. They continue to launch Qassams against our cities. Well we have found solutions: The FENCE, roadblock, border crossings to contain the terror in their backyard - not ours. We have targeted incursions against terrorists as they target our civilians. They hide behind their women and other human shields. They kidnap journalists, foreign aid workers, and anyone else. When they are not try to kill Israelis, they are killing each other. The have no responsible leaders that can form a responsible non-corrupt govt. So long as their is no serious peace efforts on their side, we will do what ever is necessary to protect our citizens.
53. Gaza
Joe Simon ,   Kfar Aviv, Israel   (11.05.06)
Interesting. The "Palestinians" have the right to attack Israel, but Israel does not have the right to fight back. Let the Arabs stop attacking Israel, stop kidnapping Israelis, stop terror in all forms. They will be surprised to find that Israel will not do anything to them either.
54. #22
v. n.y. ,   usa   (11.05.06)
egypt and jordan owned the lands the palestinians are on now. the palis were occupied by egypt and jordan at one time. when both left, these countries did not allow the palestinian to become citizens and in return, put them in refugee camps and denying them citizenship in egypt and jordan. lynne, the reason egypt and jordan DO NOT HAVE REFUGEES HERE AND THERE is because the kicked the palestinians out after rulling over them in the past. not one arabic country offered them a citizenship. no one wanted them and so they became refugees because no arab country will incorporate them as citizens. this is why they became refugees!!!!! and since they didn't want them, they threw them in israel's lap after 1967, invented the country of "palestine" and the concept of "palestinian refugees" and systematically bombarded the arab world and the palis minds with their rights to palestine, kill the jewish occupiers, jerusalem is yours, etc... LYNNE. YOU ARE LACKING REALITY!
55. #43
v. n.y. ,   usa   (11.05.06)
and also do not forget that the PALESTINIAN ISSUE was not even heard of prior to 1967. i was there. you never heard of the palestinian issue before the 6 days war. then, the arabs just wanted to drive us into the sea....later, after they lost the war in 1967, they decided to invented the palestinian refugee issue and mediatized it by lies all over the media and papers and to any other country who would listen to them. they used the media to perfection. the woo is me agenda. look how bad the israelis are. they took our lands. WHAT LANDS? you are not refugees but the rejects of jordan and egypt who didn't want you either.
56. 44. Prior to the establishment of the State of Israel
John ,   NZ   (11.05.06)
the land was a barren desert. Why din the Palestinian claim the land then? nor why do they not object to the UN. Now that Israel has turned the land from a desert into orchard, they want it. Even if Israel give them back whole of Israel, they would also fight amongst each other and destroy it. Look what happen to those glass house, Bill Gates bought for the Palestinians from Israel b4 they pull out. They destroy it. and you Jim has sympathy for them. Go back to your jungle, Jim
57. To No. 52
NYC Girl   (11.05.06)
Please Meir, Jim's mind is already made up. Don't confuse him with the facts.
58. IDF . IS A GREAT ARMY, WHEN ATTACK UNARMED POPULATION
Halis ,   Italy   (11.05.06)
no other comment, they are brave fighters , how do you call someone who shoots unarmed women , find a right term to call that hero ...... it's up to you
59. #51 Michael..
Lynne   (11.05.06)
yes, you're right.. I believe in this too.. both sides should elect new governments for a start.. both sides should be willing to accept one another as nieghbours.. but I usually see it more as Israel's responsibilty because they are the stronger side.. Israel should CLEARLY announce its borders.. and announce Palestine as a sovereign state.. in order to do this both sides should be willing to meet and talk.. away from violence..
60. v.n.y... #54
Lynne   (11.05.06)
Palestinian refugees are Israel's responsibility... what you are implying is that all Palestinian refugees are from Gaza and the West Bank.. which is not true.. there are Palestinians from every city and village in Palestine/Israel who are refugees.. Israel should NOT expect Arab countries to give those Palestinians citezenships so that they can take them off its shoulders!! if Israelis took their lands then it is their duty to compensate for the damage they had caused them... the refugee problem had started in 1948 and NOT after 1967!!
