    It comes down to economics. Why do all the suicide bombers come from the WEST BANK and not EAST JERUSALEM? Because the average salary in EAST JERUSALEM is 3 times larger than in the WEST BANK.

    As FDR said,“people care more about bread than freedom” What do you think the French, RussianRevolutions, Hitler and Mussolini’s rise to power were all about. Bread. And it’s going on now in Palestine.


  • They are pawns in the hands of the men in power of other middle eastern countries.


  • Yanni said: I’m not placing the blame entirely on the Israelis, but wake up dammit. My friend was there as a f**king aid worker. He carried no gun. He was in no way a threat. He was shot.

    u been watchin a bit too much american history x, friend. You’re not in a real life drama or nothin


  • American History X is a tight movie.


  • what was it about?


  • You haven’t seen it, Horten?? It’s about this skinhead (Edward Norton) who kills 3 black pepole that are tryin to steal his car, and he goes to prison for a few years. He gets out and he’s pretty much rehabilitated…I won’t tell u more, ya gotta see it for yourself man! Very cool movie.


  • But what waraxis said is true. Americans never purposely tried to kill innocent British or their Tories. Or at least I hope not.

    • sorry Moses - Canada was founded by loyalists displaced by American revolutionaries. Their descendents are currently owed nearly a trillion dollars by the American gov’t (a point brought up during Helm’s-Burton law days).
      Also w.r.t. the revolutionary war - you can consider it born of capitalistic motives, but one might wonder if it would ever have begun without the annihilation of the French armies and their native allies following the 7 years, war as well as defense against the Pontiac rebellion of 1763 (as well as the establishment of colonial forts along the border) by the British (sorry about the run-on). The British had the audacity to make the appalachian watershed a legal boundary to expansion by the pre-Americans, as well as increase taxes to retrospectively pay for the costs incurred by removing the French menace from [Canada].
    • facts lifted from John Keegan’s Warpaths

  • Crypt, sorry to spoil you, but the Americans (especially in the south) were very visious to Tories. It was common practice (in fact, taught in Pro-Revolutionary schools) to torture the Tories before shooting them. The British simply imprisoned their opposition on horrible Prison Ships. Note, I don’t count General Tarleton (the bad guy from The Patriot), as he was acting completely against orders.


  • I agree with Yanny. Despite the fact that I am a rookie, Jenin seems to be another kristallnacht.


  • yanny - please reread what i wrote. My first sentance was just a quote by Moses VII in order to refute.
    regards.

    based on what evidence. none!


  • If there was no direct evidence why won’t Israel let the fact finders in?

    Also, why did the Israelis not pay reparations to any of their victims? They should be forced to compensate the innocents because of their damage.
