31. #29 The Devil is in the Details
Hani   (01.22.07)
"...the palestinians have never missed an opportunity to miss an opportunity, so to speak. " You are clearly lacking insight to what happened in both Camp David and Taba. The so-called "irresistable" offer did not include sovereignty over the Haram Shareef. Rather, it was an vague "sovereign custodianship" over the surface (and not underground). The offered financial compensation for refugees (most of them would refuse that settlement anyway) was not attached to a committment on Israel's part to acknowledge the injustice which happened in 1948 - forcing me to live in exile. In any case, despite my opinion and yours the actions on the ground in Palestine since 1991 demonstrate that successive Labor/Likud/Kadima governments are sill and fully committed to the Zionist dream in the West Bank. Monstruous expansion of Har Homa, Ariel, M.Adumim, and the recent announcement of Maskiot prove that Israel gave up Gaza to consolidate its illegal theft in the West Bank. This gives the impression (to us and the whole world) that Israel took the strategic choice of settlement/confrontation over a negotiated peace - for profitability reasons. I'm convinced that with the swallowing of E1 in Jerusalem, and simultaenous expansion of settlements, the Jewish state reached the point of no return. Talk of "transfer" is both disgusting and shocking - if successful that would complete the genocidal onslaught started in 1948. I'm certain Israel will attempt to use the next major war (on either Syria or Iran or both) in order to launch massive large-scale terror on the Palestinians, hoping they would flee to Jordan and Egypt. It seems Israel is not interested in regional integration. Due to the above I believe the chances for peace are dead.
32. what is going on in the middle east

Israel is a nuclear power base empowered with the latest American weaponry: it is a true vasal of America.It is all about oil and oil and oil.It will run out so America wants to secure it with Israel's help. Who ever is for the use of nuclear power against a so-called ennemi is totally crazy! I am old enough to have survived the Japs and has lost family in Holland during the second world war. I had one Jewish uncle. Hitler wanted to denie the Jews the right to living: and what are some jews now doing to the Palestinians? To wish that Iran should be punished to annihilation is just criminal of the generations that survived the holocaust. What have you people learnt from all that? Where is the love and compassion spoken about by the Dalai Lama? If you are honest to yourself you know that you have continued to live in fear since the holocaust and just as Hitler did , you deny people that lived in the Middle East for generations, to live on their own land and worship in their own temple/mashid in Jerusalem. Shame on you Jews!!
33. "Stop the holocaust?"
IronOutlaw ,   Sydney, Australia   (01.24.07)
So he wants the world to stop the alleged Iranian/Hamas holocaust, because the world didn't stop the previous holocaust. Why then doesn't he stop the ethnic cleansing/holocaust, and the continuing theft of land in Palestine?
