  1. Is it now considered evil to defend yourself from an aggressor, or are you just going to pretend that Israel's numerous violations of ceasefire agreements never happened? Here is a new concept for you, you answer my question. Then you can ask me questions. Your question is a loaded question.
  2. Would you give us a time frame for this particular slice of history that you refer too? 1949-2014 So, every Israeli act since 1949 justifies their evil intentions, correct? Is it now considered evil to defend yourself from an aggressor, or are you just going to pretend that Israel's numerous violations of ceasefire agreements never happened?

  4. Certainly not the people who broke the previous cease fire agreement and inflicted 100% of the casualties in their pursuit of collective punishment for the Palestinians' imagined crimes. To see why Hamas would reject a cease-fire from Israel, all you have to do is look at the history. 1. Israel breaks ceasefire agreement and due to its superior military force accomplishes its goals quickly 2. Palestinians retaliate 3. Israel calls for ceasefire before Palestinians have a chance to defend themselves or regain lost territory or whatever. 4. Palestinians obviously reject ceasefire It's like somebody punches you in the face, takes your money, and then when you start to fight back says "Hey, you know,... this fighting and violence is pointless. Let's all just live in peace and harmony."
  5. Define apartheid...here is the wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apartheid_in_South_Africa Just trying to help you Tinkerbell...all we have to do is what? A... All you have to do is change some names around and you have the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict right there.
  6. Yes. Israel withdrew only because maintaining the settlements in Gaza was costly while Gaza held essentially no economic resources. No, because I'm right, and you haven't really presented any arguments to the contrary. The genocide is at the stage of herding the undersirables into ghettos. They're just one step away from concentration camps. That's nice.
  7. You do that by making conditions for the persecuted population completely unlivable and dependent for their basic sustenance on you. Israel has slowly conquered Palestinian water reserves and farmable land, bit by bit over the years. They continue to dispossess Palestinians of their homes and lands and then hand them over to Israeli settlers. They refuse to recognize Palestine as a state in order to deprive it of many of the protections of the UN and Geneva conventions. They impose embargoes on the Palestinian territories, so they can't trade what they produce on the world market and face serious food shortages and nutritional deficits. They divide up Palestinian territory with Israeli only highways and dividing walls which separates many Palestinians from their families, jobs, lands, and basic utilities such as hospitals, power, and water. They impose an apartheid regime where only Israelis have access to civil courts, but where Palestinians are tried in military tribunals where they face arbitrary arrest, where they may be detained for long periods of time without being charged, where they face steeper punishments for the same crimes, where they often don't have access to legal representation, and where obtaining permits to build their homes is next to impossible. And finally, they deliberately target civilians in military strikes, under the pretext of their hiding supposed missiles and weapons, in order to clear the way for new infrastructure projects to support the settlers. Most of the info above can be found here points 39 and on: http://www.ohchr.org/Documents/HRBodies/HRCouncil/RegularSession/Session19/FFM/FFMSettlements.pdf
  8. Because the facts obviously contradict your position. If they didn't, you would have presented your evidence that Hamas seeks to eradicate all Jews. But of course, you don't actually have any so you resort to personal attacks instead. Here is a "fact" about HAMAS: Here twit: A... You forgot to mention the part where they never actually adopted that charter.

  10. You are so pitifully ignorant. Thanks though. Therefore, since HAMAS has recently merged with the PLO and HAMAS's declared policy position is to eradicate all Jews and Israel, that is not a declared genocidal position? OK A... This is simply false.
  11. Now I am going to give you another chance to be intelligent. I know the various definitions for your use of the phrase "'Four legs good. Two legs bad'" theory of history. You're not making any sense. I can't even figure out what your charge is here. It's the idea that in any conflict one side is the "good guys" and the other the "bad guys". This is usually followed by rationalization of the facts to fit this view. Ummm... no. Genocide is the systematic killing of a group of people based on their ethnicity, religion, nationality, or geographic location. So when you see a systematic killing of a group of people based on their ethnicity, religion, nationality, or geographic location and then call it genocide, that's not a circular argument, that's a fact.
  12. There's not much to compare, they're pretty much the same. Mostly from debates with other people and the sources they referred me to. http://www.amazon.com/The-Machiavellians-Defenders-James-Burnham/dp/0895267853 Mostly, all it takes is looking at what people do instead of taking whatever they say at face value.
  13. The Israeli state must be truly blessed to be run by angels. That's a simple but very interesting question. One thing before we go, Israel's motive is not the blind extermination of Palestinians for its own sake. Israel is interested in the land and resources that the Palestinians occupy, and they don't care what they have to do to get it, even if it means they have to take it by force. Israel relies heavily on the support of the US and the UN. If they just went in and straight up started slaughtering Palestinians, their leaders would face all sorts of opposition from the rest of the world. Everything from trade embargoes to being tried for war crimes. Obviously they want to avoid those scenarios, so they have to resort to a "round-about" way of achieving their goals.
