Palestinian Terrorist Attacks Two Children with Axe

Middle East • Views: 3,158

This morning in the Israeli town of Bat Ayin, an Arab terrorist attacked two young boys with an axe, killing one and wounding another, then escaped. Soccer Dad has a report: Terror in bat ayin.

UPDATE at 4/2/09 9:40:37 am:

Hamas applauds the axe murderer.

“This attack was committed in the framework of the resistance,” Ayman Taha said. “This is a reaction to the continuing occupation and the continued building of settlements.”

“This is a natural reaction,” he said, “especially against the backdrop of Israel attacks. We are a people occupied, and it is our right to defend ourselves and to act in every way and with every means at our disposal in order to defend ourselves.”

So when does the PA name a building after this terrorist ax murderer? And put him on TV? They won't give him a parade because the Israelis would take out his car.

From an earlier post of mine:
If I were Netanyahu, I would make public announcements that no further talks will be held until the Palis turn over the ax murderer to Israel.
Any "authorities" that give him any awards will not be allowed in any Pali government or in peace talks. Any buildings named after him will be bombed.
And I would reply to all pressure to accept a Palestinian state with a remark that "We will be glad to make peace with Palestinians who recognize our right to exist, but we will NOT accept an entity which honors those who ax murder children."

No matter how reasonable that sounds, don't expect that. Consider how appalled the NYT was Lieberman's speech and what he really said! It's somehow shocking for Israeli politicians to demand any responsibility from the Palestinians.

Why do people continue to make excuses for these monsters? An incident like this will be mostly ignored. Or explained as the reaction to the 'occupation'. Or 'he's probably lost family members to Israel's brutality'. It's disgusting. The news media, the UN, and politicians in this country are absolutely soaked in blood. I find them evil.

But seemingly regular people are holding Israel to account for the atrocities perpetrated on them. It's overwhelmingly frustrating.

Notice how the MSM will label him (beyond settler).

There was an adult that intervened after the initial attack and probably saved the 7 year old. Why didn't he have a gun? Just because you can, it doesn't mean everyone always carries guns. Although since this was on the "West Bank" many do. I guess just bad luck. But you can bet the guns are out now.

re: #49 buzzsawmonkey

I'd like to see Avanti walk in here and expand a little on his comments from the other day about how Israel has to do more to explore avenues of peace with these people.

People like that will take this as an isolated incident and tell us we can't blame all Palestinians for the act of one. "After all, Christians are not resoundingly condemned for the acts of Timothy McVeigh" (except that we are despite the fact he was no longer a Christian -- but I digress).

Take all these isolated incidents and list them and their eyes glaze over. Their brains (what's left of them) shut down. I've had the argument with my FiL. When I finally emailed him a rebuttal he couldn't rebut he simply told me I needed to get a soapbox. They refuse to let the truth in.

And never forget, they think Israel's existence is the heart of the problem. So everything done against them is excusable.

I don't speak for Avanti, of course. I'm talking about the leftists who continue after all these years of atrocities to give the Palestinians the benefit of the doubt. He may or may not be one of them -- I have no idea.

91 dhg4  Thu, Apr 2, 2009 9:43:42am

Elder of Ziyon mentions the brutality that this attack demonstrated. It's very similar to a point that Charles Krauthammer made after the killing of two boys in the same area back in 2001.

This is not war. This is not even terrorism. This is bloodlust.
It is savagery so grotesque that it might not have been believed
had we not all seen that picture last fall on the cover of Time
of the Palestinian, having just beaten to death the two Israeli
reservists in Ramallah, exultantly holding out his blood-stained
hands to the crowd in a gesture of triumph.

People are not born with bloodlust. They learn it. It is no
mystery where the Palestinians have learned it.

(The article originally appeared in the Weekly Standard.)

92 MrSilverDragon  Thu, Apr 2, 2009 9:43:55am

99 zombie  Thu, Apr 2, 2009 9:45:01am

Let's say we conducted an experiment.

We took an Israeli Jewish child and an Arab child, and switched them at birth.

The Arab child would be raised in the open, free society of Israel in a loving Jewish household.

The Jewish child would be raised in the death-worshipping soul-destroying hate-soaked Palestinian culture.

Would the genetically Jewish child end up becoming a killer, a terror-supporter or worse?

Would the Arab child become a normal businessman, a friendly helpful father, a PhD in Biochemistry?

I say yes. I say that what makes a Palestinian terrorist into a terrorist is his CULTURE, not necessarily his genes.

Now, some argument could be made that thousands of years of violent Arab warriors having the most babies with the victims of their raids and with their captured slave girls might indeed create a genetic tendency toward violence in the population. But I submit that ALL human men have the capacity for violence, and it is our civiliaztion and culture that suppresses it.

All cultures except Palestinian culture, that is.

The 911 hijackers were none too concerned there were infants and children on the four hijacked planes. The seven words above, DYRTKTC says it all. Children are innocent. Children usually cannot defend themselves and targeting children is considered, in almost every society and civilization, an act of base evil.

But not all. The Jewish children of 1939 had close to 100% fatality rate under Hitler. Sixty four years after the victory over Hitler, his disciples, modern militant Islamists, leftists and most senior European foreign ministry officials call for, or excuse, the murder of Jewish children.

Six years ago, I sat at my Passover Seder table sick with the realization that 30 Jews were dead and dozens more were horribly injured from a suicide suitcase bomb on a Seder just like mine. The whole point of a Seder is to share the experience with children. The whole point of the people who attacked the Seder was to annihilate the Jewish people.

Now Jews do have a unique history. I accept that some people don't like us; but I don't ask anyone to like us. I demand only the right for my children and I to be able to live. It is not much. But for those who target Jewish children, it is too much. All over the world, everywhere the Jewish people live, Jewish children are kept under guard as no other children on earth are protected. Our kids are special to us, so that is where they aim.

Today's attack on two Jewish children with axes shows that the slightest crack in the defense of our children inspires the DYRTKTC minded scum of this earth- they can ignore a child's cries of pain to kill them. Today's attacker remembered to kill the children.

Does anyone really think smashing an ax into seven year old can be a consecrated act? Better yet, what political or religious goal deserves anything other than a nuclear bomb if DYRTKTC is the core part of their "moral" existence.

It is moral to defend yourself. It is moral to take whatever reasonable steps are necessary to survive; you have a right to do so. This is the bedrock all human morality and law. It is moral to defend yourself by aiming at those who seek you harm. It is not moral to aim at those who are not a threat or cannot defend themselves.

Imagine taking a puppy into the back yard to kill it with a hammer. Imagine doing this a to child. A child. But this is the holy goal of The world never learns. DYRTKTC is our past, present an future.

Yet, it is a 100% certainty that, if the barbarian who committed this axe murder could be put on an al Jazaeera TV show, not only would he be given air time, he would be given the same hero treatment and "warm wishes" as Samir Kuntar , the murderer who killed a child by breaking her skull against a rock. [note to PM Netanyahu, kill Kuntar]

For the Obama administration and others who think that signing a treaty or handing over land to Palestinians will solve anything, I have bad news: the problem is not that Jews live in Hebron, the the problem is DYRTKTC. Until you destroy the Beast, what chance can people live together peacefully? Until you face the fact that the Islamic world and most Palestinian media function under the core "principle" of DYRTKTC. You can force Israel to sign any treaty you like, you will get war instead. Go anywhere in the Islamic blogosphere from the "Islamist Thinkers" (there is an oxymoron!) to the comment pages of al Jazeera and the Arab media of London and everywhere you look, everything you see will have DYRTKTC as its intellectual foundation.

The world can say and do as it pleases, the Jewish people will defend our children. Do not lecture us where to live when they do nothing about DYRTKTC.

The world never learns. DYRTKTC is our past, present an future. We will not lower our guard in the face of mindless genocidal hatred. We all face the beast and must destroy it. We must never forget what they remember or our children will die.

Report: Obama Tried to Stop Gaza War Early

(IsraelNN.com) A new report in The New Yorker claims that United States President Barak Obama’s transition team worked to persuade Israel to end its offensive in the Gaza Strip before Inauguration Day, despite pledges that as president-elect that he would not meddle in foreign affairs, according to Fox news. The article claims that Obama's team worked to persuade Israel to stop bombing Gaza and withdraw its ground troops.

The article also quoted a former intelligence official as saying former Vice President Dick Cheney started "getting messages from the Israelis about pressure from Obama" before January 20. In response, Cheney reportedly portrayed Obama as "pro-Palestinian" in conversations with the Israelis. Cheney's then-adviser on national security disputed the story, saying an alleged conversation about the issue between Cheney and national security adviser-to-be Jim Jones "never, ever happened." But he did not dispute the specific claim that the Obama transition team was involving itself in Israeli affairs.

re: #81 Iron Fist

What sucks is that you know sooner or later Israel is going to let the motherfucker go in a swap for dead Israelis. Until Israel quits giving them live terrorists in exchange for dead Israelis, Israel will be on a slow, but measurable, decline towards the day when "Palestine" is Judenrein.

When that happens, Hamas and Fatah will get down to the serious business of exterminating one another.

First, Israel shouldn't release prisoners EXCEPT as part of a comprehensive peace agreement (not that I see one coming), and even then, the precedent is, war criminals complete their sentences; only regular military POWs get released.

But if they are, the deal should be live for live, dead for dead. If the Israelis aren't returned alive, the entire group of released prisoners are executed on the spot, and if any of the reception party are in the way, too bad.

And Israel should institute the death penalty for terrorism. A quick execution will cut down these "kidnappings".

re: #115 buzzsawmonkey

The "Palestinians" have a state. It's called "Jordan," and is made up of the lion's share of the old Palestine Mandate.

Currently, the "Palestinians" (an Arab subgroup invented in 1964) define themselves, every man, woman and child, as "refugees," which means that they define themselves as perpetually waiting to relocate somewhere other than where they currently reside. If they want a "right of return," let them go to Jordan.

"Palestinian" is an adjective, not a noun. The complete phrase is "Palestinian Arab," i.e. those Arabs who had settled in the British Palestine Mandate.

What happened in 1964 was that they consciously dropped the "Arab" from the name and made "Palestinian" into a noun. This was done in order to make the world forget that these people after all are Arabs, and that their ancestral homeland is Arabia, not Judea and Samaria or anywhere else in the Holy Land.

re: #99 zombie

Let's say we conducted an experiment.

We took an Israeli Jewish child and an Arab child, and switched them at birth.

The Arab child would be raised in the open, free society of Israel in a loving Jewish household.

The Jewish child would be raised in the death-worshipping soul-destroying hate-soaked Palestinian culture.

Would the genetically Jewish child end up becoming a killer, a terror-supporter or worse?

Would the Arab child become a normal businessman, a friendly helpful father, a PhD in Biochemistry?

I say yes. I say that what makes a Palestinian terrorist into a terrorist is his CULTURE, not necessarily his genes.

Now, some argument could be made that thousands of years of violent Arab warriors having the most babies with the victims of their raids and with their captured slave girls might indeed create a genetic tendency toward violence in the population. But I submit that ALL human men have the capacity for violence, and it is our civiliaztion and culture that suppresses it.

All cultures except Palestinian culture, that is.

And, who lets the Palis stay this way? Who enables them? We do! And, all of the their Arab brethren too. We do it because we want them to live in peace with Israel and hope tossing money at them and outright bribery will make them behave - the so-called "peace process". Their Arab brothers want them to stay this way because it let's them keep the hatred of the Jews fresh in everyone's mind and they can revel in that hatred through the Palestinians......Either way, the Palestinian people will continued to be used as fodder by the Muslim world and they will continue to breed one generation of homicidal maniacs after another until someone stops this cycle of shit. I am not holding out hope our current President is up to that task.

If the Palestinians continue this way, and there is no sign of them changing, Israel will have to deal with them in a harsh and brutal way until they finally accept the fact that Israel is not going away.

A Palestinian attacker wielding an axe has killed an Israeli boy and wounded another in a Jewish settlement in the West Bank, police say.

The incident took place in the Bat Ayin settlement south of Bethlehem. The attacker is reported to have escaped.

Doctors said the fatality was a 13-year-old, while a seven-year-old boy was being treated for serious wounds.

The military wing of Islamic Jihad and Imad Mughniyeh Group said they carried out the attack, Israel Radio reports.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the attack as a "senseless act of brutality against innocents".

Reports say it appears to be the latest of sporadic attacks by Palestinians in Israeli-occupied territory.

“This attack was committed in the framework of the resistance,” Ayman Taha said. “This is a reaction to the continuing occupation and the continued building of settlements.”

“This is a natural reaction,” he said, “especially against the backdrop of Israel attacks. We are a people occupied, and it is our right to defend ourselves and to act in every way and with every means at our disposal in order to defend ourselves.”

"Palestinian" is an adjective, not a noun. The complete phrase is "Palestinian Arab," i.e. those Arabs who had settled in the British Palestine Mandate.

What happened in 1964 was that they consciously dropped the "Arab" from the name and made "Palestinian" into a noun. This was done in order to make the world forget that these people after all are Arabs, and that their ancestral homeland is Arabia, not Judea and Samaria or anywhere else in the Holy Land.

Yes, indeed. That, too.

re: #162 Alouette

BBC:

A Palestinian attacker wielding an axe has killed an Israeli boy and wounded another in a Jewish settlement in the West Bank, police say.

The incident took place in the Bat Ayin settlement south of Bethlehem. The attacker is reported to have escaped.

Doctors said the fatality was a 13-year-old, while a seven-year-old boy was being treated for serious wounds.

The military wing of Islamic Jihad and Imad Mughniyeh Group said they carried out the attack, Israel Radio reports.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu described the attack as a "senseless act of brutality against innocents".

Reports say it appears to be the latest of sporadic attacks by Palestinians in Israeli-occupied territory.

Yep- knew it would be there. . .the "settler" got it. . .with the underlying "what did you expect" tone. . .farrkin hell!

And Israel will respond disproportionaly. . .what would be a proportional response to this? Shudder, horrible horrible horrible. . .

Zombie and buzz. I talk about that a lot. For the most part, the "Palestinian people", weren't invented until 1967. Before that, the term meant as you two describe.

I've read contemporary description, pre-1948, referring to Palestinian Jews, Palestinian Arabs, Palestinian Christians.

One thing that always amuses me...left wing Christians who bemoan the shrinking Christian population in the area, but hate Israel. They are blind to what is really happening. It's interesting how anti-Israel Christians have aligned them selves with anti-Semitic Arabs.

The term "Palestinian" was widely used before 1948. It referred to Jews and Christians in the Holy Land.

To me for Dick Cheney to say that Barack Obama supports the Palestinians is pretty non-controversial. But Hersh (assuming that it's he, who wrote the original article) is writing for a bunch of New York liberals, who probably put on Cheney masks when they go trick or treating with their children. To them, Cheney saying that is even further proof that he's the spawn of evil for denigrating Barack Obama's "peace" efforts. I was careful to write that Hersh was writing for his audience.

I think that the Israeli government decided that it didn't want to start off relations with American on a bad footing. I'm not convinced that there was direct pressure.

Behind the shield of screen-name anonymity, I am going to make some remarks more frankly than I might otherwise.

I am an American Jew born and bred, and now live in a small town in Israel where there are several Israeli-Arab villages near by. Some of these Israeli-Arabs -- who are of course Israeli citizens -- work in my town or others near by, some of them in responsible positions in places like banks and hospitals.

I get on very well with them. (And have also suffered the occasional humilation of having an Arab correct my Hebrew.) I LIKE THEM. They tend to have a good sense of humor, and I always like people with whom I can have a laugh.

Yet there is always the lingering silent question -- are they genuinely decent as they seem to be, or is it taqqiya? And I HATE having to think that.

They don't misunderstand. They quote him as saying things he never said. I had someone tell me that Rush Limbaugh said he wanted Obama to fail because he's black. That is NOT what he said.

Because the people I hear from are mostly fans, I assume they don't wilfully misquote him, but that's another possibility.

re: #249 Clio

Behind the shield of screen-name anonymity, I am going to make some remarks more frankly than I might otherwise.

I am an American Jew born and bred, and now live in a small town in Israel where there are several Israeli-Arab villages near by. Some of these Israeli-Arabs -- who are of course Israeli citizens -- work in my town or others near by, some of them in responsible positions in places like banks and hospitals.

I get on very well with them. (And have also suffered the occasional humilation of having an Arab correct my Hebrew.) I LIKE THEM. They tend to have a good sense of humor, and I always like people with whom I can have a laugh.

Yet there is always the lingering silent question -- are they genuinely decent as they seem to be, or is it taqqiya? And I HATE having to think that.

That's hard. All the best to you and yours.

The thing that I wonder about is whether they are really willing to build their lives and futures as Israelis. And if so, will their children be so willing? Or would they really rather want Israel to melt away into an Arab-dominated Palestine?

Maybe I should not have brought up the subject at all.

266 Clio  Thu, Apr 2, 2009 10:48:23am

re: #259 buzzsawmonkey

I will observe in passing that the constant drumbeat that "settlers" and "settlements" are the problem is nothing more than a groundwork being laid towards the destruction of Israel in its entirety.

Israel was founded by "settlers"--Jews who came to the Land of Israel from other countries with the objective of creating an independent Jewish homeland. The "settlers"--that is, the chalutzim--were (are still?) the heroes of Israeli history as the colonists and pioneers are, or were, the heroes of American history.

That is being implicitly attacked with the demonization of today's "settlers," and today's "settlers" are being relegated, in the Jewish state and certainly in discourse elsewhere in the West, to the status of Jews in pre-Emancipation Europe--a despised and shunned minority.

It is all the more important, then, to remember that to the Arabs and to the anti-Israel West Tel Aviv is a settlement, no less than any small enclave perched atop a West Bank hill. All Jewish residency or presence in the Land is a "settlement," with the possible exception of those enclaves of Jews which existed prior to Independence--though we should remember the Hebron Massacre of 1929, and recall that even before the State of Israel had any chance of coming into existence, even these enclaves were considered fit targets for attack by their Arab neighbors.

Whenever I hear or read of a U.S. president -- any U.S. president -- kvetching about "settlements" I want to yell back at him "You are president of a country that SETTLED from Plymouth Rock to Waikiki and called it Manifest Destiny."

re: #243 buzzsawmonkey

The media typically call "East Jerusalem" "traditionally Arab." It is "traditionally Arab" only because for 19 years Jordan had rendered it judenrein, which is not much of a "tradition."

I have a book on Jerusalem which includes a German aerial recon photo from 1917. You can see the walled city. You can see numerous structures to the northwest (ie, predominantly Jewish neighborhoods), although relatively low density. To the east (those "traditionally Arab areas") there is virtually nothing.

Hama rules are to war what no-holds-barred rules are to personal fights. Anything whatsoever goes.

Putting aside the barbarity of it, because the "people occupied" are unlikely to be swayed by appeals to their better nature; (if they had one, they wouldn't be acting like that), have they thought about the possible consequences of a large scale fight with those rules, and only those rules, to moderate it?

It is a completely valid concern and there is no reason not to bring it up. Even more so today, when there is evidence that Israeli Arabs are becoming more radicalized or alienated thanks to Hamas and certain anti-Israeli Arab MKs. From what I hear, Arab Israelis do not learn, or are reluctant to learn, many crucial aspects of Jewish/Israeli history, including the Holocaust.

My ancestors did not come to America on the Mayflower. They arrived at the end of the 19th/ beginning of the 20th century. Nevertheless, as an American, colonial /revolutionary American history is still MY history. How can you have any concept of national unity if the populace rejects parts of the history they don't like, or don't feel applies to them personally?

274 Almost Killed by Space Hookers  Thu, Apr 2, 2009 11:04:36am

Baruch Dyan Emet...

These stories fill me with atavistic rage. My anger is not just directed at the axe wielding monster. My anger is directed at the glee of the Arab world for such atrocities. Only creatures like Hamas, their many supporters and like minded drooling mobs could possibly call this a good thing, celebrate it and gloat over it.

Everyone be clear for once. We have a culture that celebrates and applauds the axe murder of boys.

I imagine how I would feel if I were one of those boy's father's and I heard some jackal going on about "resistance." Can you put yourself in his shoes for a moment? Would the desire to simply kill those animals not overwhelm you in that position? I truly am asking you to think along those lines for a minute. Your son was carved up by a slavering monster and some other slavering monster is speechifying about it - how it was a wonderful thing - how they would get you and your wife and your other kids too if they could.

With that firmly in mind. Consider that Israel has never fought Hamas with the same sorts of tactics that Americans would in this situation. The Israelis are that (I believe too much) restrained.

Suppose that the Mexicans were doing this sort of stuff in Texas - launching rockets, random kidnappings and murders of Americans - suicide bombers - and now also suppose that we got to hear them gloat about it? How long would there be a Mexico? Hell, we wouldn't need to send the army, the Texans would go themselves.

I am trying to make very clear the difference between Israel and any other Western Nation. Going back to the way that the US would treat Mexico, if the Mexicans were like Hamas - the fact is that in any military action, civilians will get killed. The Israelis have a much lower tolerance for that - even in a wholly justified war - then we in America do.

I am not trying to make a call for arms exactly. I am saying that the time will come for decisive military action. Eventually the Arabs will push Israel far enough that the Israelis will just roll over them like the US rolled over Germany or Japan. And let's be really clear, that was total war on our part. When that happens hundreds of thousands of Arabs will get killed.

The WaPo will, no doubt, blame the "right-wing" government's announcement that it will not automatically accept the "two state solution." Had the Israeli public not elected that right-winger Netanyahu, then this poor beleagured Palestinian would not have been compelled to murder a child with an axe.

If anything, this only proves what everyone here already knows - before one is "given" something akin to "statehood," one should be required to prove that one is ready to join the Civilized World as opposed to a land of bloodthirsty savages raised and governed by a religious death cult.

When I was in college, more years ago than I am prepared to admit, I got into a conversation with a guy at a "foreign policy club" and made this very point. That if Israel should evacuate from its territories, so should Americans return to their countries of origin. The idiot agreed.

The Neander Valley, where the first remains were identified, and for which the Neanderthals were named, is in Germany, so in prehistoric foreshadowing, the Neanderthals must have been Germans who invaded France. Researchers have raised serious questions about early Neanderthal links to France, as no remains of cheese or wine have been discovered at Neanderthal sites.

This is a circular argument and is why Israel is forced to bow to the world. Fact is Israel has made many concessions over the years to make peace only to get kicked in the groin afterward. Anyone who thinks there will be peace in the middle-east while Israel still exists is hopelessly clueless. What is ridiculous is that a tiny strip of land that *is* historically and verifiably been inhabited and ruled by Hebrews for thousands of years is too much for the world and the very large neighboring Arab countries to bear. What was once called Palestine also includes land now occupied and controlled by Jordan, Syria, and Egypt. Those countries aren't being forced to give up any of their vast land for a Palestinian state, why is it that Israel must?

Israel constantly is being attacked and vilified for justly responding to those attacks, at what point would we say enough is enough and go to war for keeps? We would *never* tolerate what the Israelis are asked to tolerate...

You are moving the goalposts. We were talking of what you seemed to advocate, ethnic cleansing. That has no end either.

I am with you in the broader picture. Palestinians, and Arabs in general, have created a vile culture symbolized by Hamas, and Arafat before. But I maintain that many of them are ignorant pawns.

Your ultimate solution, at least as you seemed to describe it, is no less vile.

There are plenty of Palestinians who could have a decent society. Unfortunately they are a minority, but I speak with some knowledge because I have employed them and I know of at least one and his family, who I don't believe was unique, that risked his life not only for me personally after the invasion of Kuwait, but also helped our forces determine where the Iraqis were entrenched in Kuwait. I know of others who probably would have done the same.

The point is, there is a difference between the predominant culture and individuals within it. You don't seem to be able to see that, nor think how to change the status quo without resorting to what most of us, I at least, would consider obscene acts.

As long as there is a facade of "peace", Israel will be forced to accept continued aggression and attacks and constant fear.

Frankly, I question why you would call it ethnic cleansing when clearly Israel has just cause for all out war. Israel has been taking it on the chin ever since they were given statehood once again, how much longer would you live under constant threat of rocket attacks, suicide bombings, etc...

Alright, I accept your clarification in intent, but in words I see no way that your statement would lead to anything different, whether you intended that or not.


I'm sure there are plenty of Palestinian people who are good and decent and would simply like to live their lives without war, but a good majority do not want peace and never will allow it.

And they won't because the other Arab states, let alone many of their own, won't let them. That has been evident for a long time.


Only solution then for Israel, since I am squarely on their side, would be to fully take over the land and anyone who fights is the enemy, anyone who doesn't can stay, but the status quo has failed and it is bad for the Palestinians who want peace and it is absolutely bad for Israel's sovereignty. As long as there is a facade of "peace", Israel will be forced to accept continued aggression and attacks and constant fear.

But what you advocate is nothing different from what was the status quo going back to 67, or whenever it was. That didn't work out either, and I am not above being critical of Israel for giving the others the ammunition that has kept this going, and getting worse. I refer to the settlement programs in particular going back to the 70's, that were done under the front of "defensive" lines. I remember the arguments then. Defensive lines composed of settlers with families?

Frankly, I question why you would call it ethnic cleansing when clearly Israel has just cause for all out war. Israel has been taking it on the chin ever since they were given statehood once again, how much longer would you live under constant threat of rocket attacks, suicide bombings, etc...

I am fully behind response to attack, and in no way in a "proportional" manner. That term has cost us also many lives, at least going back to Vietnam.


I advocate Israel taking over the land forcefully, engaging *any* who take up arms, and forcing those who do not act to live in peace out of the land...

I hope you realize that that is no solution; just history repeating itself and worse, it in effect means a one state solution with a hostile sector of the population breading like rabbits. Cynically speaking, that might be the Palestinian's best hope, because it would mean the equivalent of the "right to return" accomplished by other means, and all they need is a generation or two to accomplish it.

However you did also say that the Palestinians had no claim to land. Now which part can be debated, but perhaps that was also something you did not clarify fully?

I just left a restuarant /bar where I had dinner with my wife and daughter, and they had karioki.

I ended up singing will smiths just the two of us to my two year old daughter. I had a couple drafts with my meal, which facilitated it. feeling a love for my daughter so all encompassing that I would do anything to protect her.

and I mean anything.

if I extended my love of my child outward to all the children of my culture /group/nation what ever you want to call it, with equal ferocity of which the palistinians spread hate,

and I was Netanyahu I would spread death among the palistinians the likes of which they have never experienced like the angel of death without the hint of remorse or mercy and there would be wailing and nashing of teeth among the arabs who call themselves palistinians that would shake them and thier death cult to the very foundation leaving them with the choice of dying to the last one or finnaly rejecting thier death cult.

and if they still chose death I would give it to them god have mercy on my soul.

Oh my. Back to that negative rewritten connotation of those awful settlements. You need to read "From Time Immemorial" by Joan Peters. The land of Israel was desolate and rebuilt,period. She will give you the U.N. documents to prove it. The lies have been repeated so often that it's just acceptable to blame the "settlers" and the "settlements". Again it really is time to correct the propaganda.

re: #315 Naso Tang

Not only do I suggest that you read Joan Peters' book but I also suggest you check out the "settlements" and see how these people have built up barren land. It gets really old listening to people scapegoating the settlers. These people are heroes.
