The Israel rules

America's support of the Gaza attack proves once again that our mythical image of Israel has blinded us to its faults -- a myopia with devastating consequences for both countries.

    Wasting time with teenagers

    It's usually futile, like arguing with infants.

    Sometimes I wonder why I bother, especially when no point has been made at all.

    I just don't like the idea of a civilian population having war waged on it over such bogus reasons.

    So, does that mean you like the idea of waging war on a civilian population over legitimate reasons? What reasons would those be?

    You insist on making this an issue of race and religion when it is one of war and warfare against civilians. Thus I cannot help but think there is something wrong with the way your mind has been programmed. Bombing civilians is NOT COOL!

    -- something stinks

    You're the one with the Jewish problem who keeps bringing up race and religion, not I.

    For someone who claims they don't like war waged against civilians you don't seem to mind thousands of rockets launched at civilian areas.

    Your "concern" seems to be limited to non-Jewish deaths, and then only if the deaths are caused by Jews.

    You think there is something wrong with how my mind is programmed because you are a child, and that is how children think.
