Have any of you actually been to Israel? It's quite a lovely country (at least from my experience).

2. Also on the whole "USS Liberty thing" you may want to read the part where it says "Both the Israeli and [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_government_of_the_United_States"]U.S, governments[/URL] conducted inquiries[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Liberty_incident#cite_note-NSAhistory57-1"][2][/URL] into the incident, and issued reports, which concluded that the attack was a mistake, due to Israeli confusion about the identity of the USS [I]Liberty"[/I]

Wrong.
The attack was deliberate.

What the Israelis did not know, according to "Body of Secrets" -- published by Doubleday and scheduled for release Tuesday -- is that the U.S. National Security Agency had a surveillance plane flying above the Liberty.
The book quotes by name a Hebrew-English translator on that U.S. plane as saying the Israeli pilots talked about completing an attack. He said "they mentioned an American flag" -- suggesting the Israelis knew they were attacking a U.S. ship.
Bamford's other named sources include a former top N.S.A. official who conducted a review of the attack and an Air Force major general.
Israeli officials have not responded to CNN calls seeking comment. [/quote]
brb taking over the world so i can purge shit like this
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;21790597]"Israel holds the world record for curfew days installed over Palestinians."
Really? I thought it was France.
"Uprooting trees as collective punishment."
They really care that much about their trees that it's an effective punishment?[/QUOTE]
Well, the entire country goes through ecological recovery. Tree removal, allows for massive setbacks, as soil becomes eroded by the winds.
[QUOTE=Incognito;21788664]I'm sorry that I had mistaken you for an idiot after you you confused [B]PAKISTAN[/B] and [B]PALESTINE[/B] for the same country, on top of that you just implied that Hamas and Al Qaeda are the same entity. If you had any knowledge on the subject you would know that they are not, you would also know that Israel has murdered more civilians in one conflict that Hamas has during their entire existence.
I personally believe that Palestine is the lesser evil of the two, the people that live in Gaza and the West bank just want a country to call their own, what Hamas does to try to reach that goal is not the fault of the Palestinians. Meanwhile Israel thinks that just because they where "given" that land by god, its alright to murder and persecute and entire group of people.
Also about Hamas, I do not support there actions, but they where not created to "kill the Jews". They where created due to the suffering of entire group of people, the same people that where murdered and driven out of their homes by Zionists. These Zionists are the same people that run the Israeli government, the same government that stuck all the Palestinians in glorified ghettos. These people are also the reason the U.S has so many enemies in the middle east.
One more thing. Nowhere did you condone anything, you just said that we should support the Israelis rather then the Palestinians just because they haven't attacked us, that is incredibly stupid reasoning. Also good job on deleting your other post.
Before you try to say something like "Hamas has killed many more civilians that Israel has." I went and found the casualty figures. Numbers in () are people that are under the age of 18. This is just from 2005-2009
Deaths:
Palestinians: 1754(309) - Israeli: 117(12)
Injuries:
Palestinians: 6297(864) - Israeli: 1183(14)

Ok... maybe I wasn't specific enough for everyone to understand what I'm saying.
I had the LOCATIONS of Palestine and Pakistan mixed up, I didn't think they were the SAME country. Nobody is fucking perfect.
Also, I never even mentioned the word Hamas or anything about their sole mission being to kill the jews, I was talking about all Islamic terrorist orgs in general, particularly Al Queda. Where the hell did I even mention that I thought the two organizations were the same? (which they obviously are not)
Also I'm not blaming any country for ANYTHING (except Israel for not taking better measures to prevent civilian casualties) because terrorists are more like factions, not countries. Also I know that many of the countries that they may reside in do not entirely approve of their actions, but they can't really do anything about it or they refuse to.
Oh and nice job trying to insult some one who agrees with and acknowledges the fact that Israel has killed innocent civilians...
Also I deleted the post because I expected alot of people to take it out of context like you did.
I never really said to support Israel, I'm just wondering why you guys are complaining about the country when there's so many other people to complain about... you know the guys actually trying to kill us?
