Israel is a TERRORIST country

Ashra, you are incorrect Israel did not steal land from Palestine. Prior to the establishment of the Israeli state the area was under British control, who for convenience used the old name of Palestine for the area. The area had been inhabited since biblical times by Jews and more recently by nomadic Arabs as well as some other peoples. The British suggested forming two states and the Arabs initially agreed to support this, they then changed their mind greedily wanting all the land for themselves. Israel was formed and received international recognition from the world community. Many Arabs emigrated into the area and called themselves Palestinians greatly swelling the number of Arabs in the area, Yasser Arafat himself was Egyptian. Many Jews also moved into Israel some from Europe and a great many refugees from neighbouring Arab countries who expelled all Jews. Immediately, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria started an illegal war invading Israel and occupying parts of it. They also illegally occupied the West Bank and the Gazza strip. After Israel defeated this outrageous assault it took control of West bank and Gazza strip. Let's also remember that initially Jewish settlements in the area lived without any militia until a number of unprovoked attacks by Arabs necessitated the formation of defence corps. all the best urban

Webmayestro, "may be the promise Is killing people, Destroy their houses, and accusing them of terrorism!!!!" Presumably here you are thinking of the expansion of Islam. Israel has defended itself from Arab aggression, remember the first Jewish settlements in the area had no militia until unprovoked attacks from Arabs necessitated forming defence corps all the best urban

And I hear Egypt is too uncompassionate to let them it. all the best urban

I really do not see that reported in press/media. Are you referring to the suiside attacks done by some Muslims in Israel. Why do not you try to uunderstand one fact here, just why these people are pushed so hard they are now ready to do anything, i repeat anyting just to take revenge. Life has actually lost its charm for some of them, thanks to the Israeli atrocities.

Hire people for Suiside attacks:) Why dont the Isrealis (JEws) start doing the same. I just cant understand how can someone get ready to get him/herself killed for money. As far as the Iran statement is concerned. Its a political statement and must be seen as that. Politicians say lot of things they do not actually mean.

No, I think he is referring to the evil attacks by the cowardly Hezbullah all the best urban

So that means critisizing Muslims for violance is not usually right and Israel has been involved on governmental leval in killings of innocent citizens, women and children more than its rivals, the muslim states surrounding it.

Fair enough. I just do not agree on the Holocaust thing. This is all made up. No such thing ever took place. Are you aware of the fact the Jews spread roumors of Holocaust immediately after the WWI as well, it was against Russia at that time. This is a part of their game to prove themselves as poor victims.

Terrorism can only be justified when ALL other avenues have been explored and found to be fruitless. I live in the UK, and personally do not believe that the state of Israel is justified - if as claimed, it is repayment for the Nazi atrocities then why did the Slavs only get a homeland within the last 10 years (when Czechoslavakia split), why do homosexuals, Romany gypsies & disabled people still not have a homeland? Only 35% of those killed in the holocaust were Jewish (which is bad enough in itself), but 40% were non-Jewish slavs! We have faced terrorism, from the IRA. Initially, the Irish had no real political alternative to terrorism, and won Eire. The UK then instituted an anti-Catholic form of apartheid in Northern Ireland, which the vast majority of citizens of mainland Great Britain were unaware of. But, the Catholics DID have a vote, and could have a political resolution to matters, yet the IRA (and the UDF are just as deplorable) continued not just to plant bombs and kill indiscriminately, but also terrorised the Catholic community it was supposed to represent. This was finally reduced, thanks to the brave actions of the Catholics in Northern Ireland, largely focussed by the ladies of one family, when a member of their family was killed by the IRA in a pub. This would serve us all well to take as an example. You stated that the West only reports Islamic actions against Israel, and not the other side - I have corrected this misconception. The deaths of a family on a beach in Gaza, shelled by an Israeli gunship as they picnicked; the recent deaths of 4 innocent citizens in the West Bank. These stories are in our papers and on our main news broadcasts. Whilst the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank are occupied, denied the right of genuine political representation, and Israel hides behind the US veto on the UNs Security Council, I feel there may be no alternative to acts of terror - I hope I'm proven wrong. However, Lebanon has a government, has periodic elections in which all citizens can cast their vote, and influence their countries political direction and behaviour, and therefore has a choice, I do not believe that you can allow your country to be used to attack another country and not expect that country to react. Israels retaliations are deplored across Europe as overly intensive, and contravene the Geneva Convention that states the risk to innocent citizens lives must be a priority of any country planning and executing a military campaign, and they must be protected by design. After all. had the UK government destroyed Derry and levelled a quarter of Dublin whenever the IRA struck, you can be sure there would have been uproar across the world. Until the people of the Lebanon choose peace, just as the Catholics of Northern Ireland said enough is enough, the killings must stop, on both sides, then Israel will continue to strike back. Human beings on both side will die. And the media will continue to have their stories.

yeah i agree with u but still news channel shows their point of view] but we see news so v see it from ur point of view

..amen Moudas.. :)

Israel is justified for having been invaded and having had rockets launched at it's towns. If Hezbollah wasn't prepared for this response - maybe they shouldn't have started it. Nations are not houses with police departments to call. Your sloppy attempt to frame the situation into a form that shows Israel at fault is pathetic. If your country is hosting people who are attacking another country from inside your borders - you had best work to stop them.

Mecboy, I understand your concern, however the Nazis were far-right wing Fascists, yet your own nation behaves like one, too, and is supported by the USA which is as rightwing a country as you will find. Throughout Europe the elctorate can choose between leftwing and rightwing parties, but in the USA there are only rightwing parties! Behaving like the German government during the 1930s will not endear your country to Europe, who are all too aware of the dangers of ultra right wing government. Shalom.

Israel is not a terrorist country, Its has Jewish in it, It has a military to protect it from any harm. If you were a Jewish, such as Elie Weasel. Wouldn't you be scared of Any remaining Nazis?

Question from a Non American who is been corrupted by media other than FOx Media - Is the Modern State of Israel the state that was promissed by God to Abraham or are we supposed to wait for the Messiah to come? Under Jewish theology the Messiah has yet to arrive. Under Christian Theology, Jesus is the Messiah. So who is supposed to set-up Israel? Was David Ben Gurian a spritual figure or was he merely a politician? Was he setting up Israel as a political entity or a spiritual one? Please, I am from a Third World country and am in need of enlightenment from USA and all the Freedome of Debate that you have ;-(

Promised Land - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_of_Israel Instructions to Israel - http://www.bible-history.com/map-israel-joshua/map-israel-joshua_conclusion.html I strongly believe that Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Iran and Turkey are against Israel in defense of their homelands. You, too, will defend your homeland against immigrants that you welcomed and who later want to take over your homeland!

Spoken like a very smart 5 year old. Very very bad people... In what text book did you read that one?

haha I didn't call him dumb. Why would I call him dumb? Do you feel all grown up calling me dumb? LMAO! oooooh. I was calling the statement dumb, which I suppose wasnt' nice or mature, I'll blame that on my migraine. I will apologize to HIM. Im sorry for that. But what are you the defender of everyone you think was called dumb? I'm sure he can defend himself. Unless he needs you to defend him.... W/E.
