"If you lived in a civilised country, you'd note that the whole world is sickened by China's execution of a mentally sick Briton today" So what? Does China care? It couldn't care less. China claims its judicial souverenity, and rightfully so.

"you have forgotten the main element of Judaism which is hesed and rahamim." With this "element of Judaism" 6 million Jews, including 1.5 million children ended up in gas chambers. Sorry. Done with this element. Never again. BTW, there is another basic element in Judaism: an eye for an eye, and given the fact that Hamas wants 1000 murderers for 1 kidnapped soldier, this should be amended to 1000 eyes for an eye. During "Cast Lead" 1400 Gazans were killed, and 14 Israeli soldiers, this makes 100 eyes for 1 eye, not 1000 as is Hamas's approach. And what about 8 years of shelling Israeli towns, targetting solely civilians? DO you know how many civilians, children among them, were killed and crippled during those 8 years? It went on and on years after the last Jew left Gaza, and thus the pretext of "occupation" was eliminated. What guicy quotations from ANY law will you bring here, and what explanation will you provide? Hesed and Rahamim?

Thanks for your TB
34. Posters Comments A Sad Commentary On Israel Thinking
World Citizen ,   the world   (12.30.09)
To read these posts is to know that Israeli society is terminally ill. Your nationalistic jingoism will be the end of your sad hate-filled country. And when it comes you (self-deluded) will cry about a world filled with so-called anti-semitism.

Disproportionate is the whole point. That is how you END a conflict. I see you are from Jordan, so I will make it simple for you to understand: The sooner it is over, the sooner it is over.

A question you should be asking yourself !!
40. The victory of cruelty
Kerstin Sodergren ,   Hadera Israel   (01.05.10)
The world opinion is completely right. Let's hope that the opinion will materialze into real sanctions. The world have stayed passive for too long,while The Israly Army is constantly committing war crimes, and the governement is violating internatinal laws
41. mathematical mistake: 1400 dead
fortuna ,   from the south   (01.05.10)
London accuses the Hamas for looking at Jews as if they are animals, he is not even seeing them, he writes that the price was 10 dead soldiers and 300 wounded, and "forgets" to mention 1400 dead about 400 of them children. that is the price
