I am glad that perhaps we can drag our attention from Gaza for a second to see just waht else is happening around us. Sudan Cameroons Congo Mymanmar Horn of Africa Nigeria The list goes on. Trouble is when it is non-whites killing non-whites so many do not seem to care.

The Arabs were fighting each other long before Mohammed ever arrived. They did not learn it from anyone else. All self-taught, just like everybody else. Our favourite pastime is fighting each other.

Penguins on Macquarie Is really don't help much. Nor do Hobbits.

To Arctish Post 2559 is a concise and quite reasonable summary of the Aliyahs. Thank you

But would an international peace keeping force keep Jews safe from attack? If not, then don't bother. There was UNFIL in Sth Lebanon for decades but its record at containing/controlling Hezbollah was very spotty at best.

That you for the post. Israel is the only one doing (trying) to do that to Hamas and yet they are constantly vilfied, crticised, condemned by yourself and many others. Who else will try/do defeat them on the ground is not Israel? What does xefeated on teh ground actually mean? Defeat at the...

No more legitimate that the Jews rememebering they were evicted from their homeland in the 120s AD by the Romans. That land has had so many claimants over the centuries. The most disputed land in history I daresay.

I have not overlooked the haters in the settlements. Why do you believe I have overlooked them? The expansion of the settlements must be stopped. I know about Tantura. A massacre that should never have happened. Destroying an example of living together is a monstrous crime. Why would I be...

In 1929 it was the Jews in Hebron (West Bank) who faced lynching, arson etc. Headline from 1929 newspaper. It is a sad fact that 100 years later the inhabitants of the West Bank still seem to hate each other. They are seemingly incapable of living together in peace. The passing of generations...

Been a while since anyone popped their head in here
