Take it easy, totallybase (from the previous anonymous)
Bad day, today, uh? Please take a cup of coffee and relax. Take it easy.
"The Israelis are mean and nasty buggers"???!!!!! You accuse me of hatred towards Palestinians but I wonder whether you will use this language when talking about Palestinian. Who is the hater here? Which letter is fuller of hatred and anger?
"weak ignorant fools like anonymous". Thank you. I appreciate your compliments. I love you too.
You are using the "red herring" fallacy (saying other things - in this case anger language- to deviate the attention for my arguments) and the "straw man" fallacy (putting things in my mouth I haven't said). You do everything but argue with logical arguments.
Of course, Israelis are not saints. Far from that. But I don't understand people who depict Palestinian as saints and Israelis as devils (or should I say "mean and nasty buggers?").
In our Western world, due to our Christian and Socialist heritage, we have sympathy for the weak. But the weak can be good or bad (the same as the strong). Neonazism in Europe is weak (nowadays), for example.
Palestinians have to stop blaming Israel of all their faults and start making self-criticism, to correct their mistakes. But they can't so becuase they are victimism junkies. Instead of trying to solve the problems of their fucked-up society (so they would be stronger even to deal with Israel), they only produce suicide bombing, hatred and violence.
When Israel left Palestinians alone in the Gaza strip, they begin fighting between them. Somewhere they found a way to blame Israel of their civil violence. Palestinian Foreign Minister Ziad Abu Amr said: "Hamas and Fatah are like two brothers in a cage. If you put two brothers in a cage, and deprive them of food, they will fight each other". It's never their fault even when they kill each other. It's always Israel's fault, Western world's fault or some weird conspiracy theory (like when arabs claim that the Twin Towers crash was produced by the Moshad to victimize Muslims). They are inherently good and everyone else is inherently bad (you only hava to red the Quran to see this). This way the Palestinians (and the Arab world) will only get worse and worse
