I don't believe this and choose not to comment it any further, except to say that they could have done so at least 100 times already if that was truly what they had in mind.

Who's side am I on?

Both. And neither.

Both sides have done wrong against the other and are still doing so pretty much every day. Both have a legitimate right to live in the region, while neither have the right to forcibly dislocate the other.

Both the Arabs and the Jews deserve to live long and happy lives in peace. Neither side can hope to achieve this by continuing on their present course. So, I support them both. And neither. They both have to change if they want to get out of this whole mess.

Right here you point to the very difference: most immigration is driven solely by quality of life concerns, primarily economic. Certainly there was plenty of that in Jews going to the Mandate-but underlying that was an ideological and political movement that also helped immigration along-most immigrant around the world have no "-plans"-they move to make a better life. The Zionist movement did have a plan-to create a Jewish homeland, and Jewish immigration to the Mandate was crucial, given that as you stated, The mandate was overwhelmingly non-Jewish.

This gives the immigration into the Mandate fra greater political significance. IF (improbable but worhtwhile supposition) it became known there was a Chicano organization aided Mexican immigration into the southwest as a means of creating such a demographic balance as to return the southwest to being part of a soverign Mexican nation-what do you think the reaction in the US as a whole would be? (we already have that "genius" Huntington saying the same thing) I think it would be lound, vociferous, and while not likely violent, very antagonistic. Now imagine the WHOLE country was slated to become part of another soverign nation, or "just 50%" of it? Would that sit well with locals?
President Ike remove all Mexican mig illegal or legal and citzen back to Mexica in Operation Wetback untril the Court detiman He acted illegality on legal red and citzen.

First of all I would like to say that Hamas is fighting a legitimate and just struggle against an occupying power which commits crimes on a daily basis.

Secondly I wonder how anyone but perverted people can actually take any satisfaction in killing an aged cripple as he leaves a mosque. A very cowardly act.

Suicide bombers are not cowards, and they are not criminals since a people have a right to resist against the occupying power. The Israeli helicopter pilots who fires missiles after unarmed people are cowards and war criminals.

Then people complain that the Palestinans allow children to join the resistance. But the Palestinans are not capable of bringing foreign fighters into the struggle. Unlike the Isralies who shanghai young Russians to fight for them. When they see what is going on they want to go back. Putin is looking into allowing them to regain Russian nationhood.

Thus allowing children to join the struggle is a desperate but just act. Child soldiers are used all over the world and through historical time, and no serious condemnation has taken place, but in Africa where they threaten Western soldiers.

Check the facts before you speak

Yassin was almost assassinated 24 hours before, and it was stopped seconds before the rockets were lanuched because civilians appeared next to him.

This time special measures were taken to ensure that Yassin was sorrounded only by members of Hamas.

Several news flashes to the denser people:

Killing Yassin does have a target, and there are signs of destabilization in Hamas, because Rantisi delcares himself leader, and Haled Mash'al demands a vote for leadership after the mourning is over. Also, Hamas now has no high spiritual authority.


Yassin was on Israeli targets several times in the last months and wasn't killed because he had too many civilians surrounding him.


The new Israeli policy is a response to a series of failed attempts by Hamas to create "mega terrorist attacks" including a failed attempt to blow up containers of gas that would have killed Eli and half of his city, some week ago.

The new Israeli policy won't stop here, but will continue for several weeks.


Also, while Hamas is enraged, they have absolutely nothing new to show. For the last 3 months they were rolling at 200% steam to try and make terrorist attacks. Had Israel not stepped in, I'm sure that in the next month or two, Hamas would have managed to create another large terrorist attack.

Israel decided to act very harshly against the leaders of Hamas, to destabilize it.

Well is it not true that when a Russian 'jew' decides to move to Israel and get a cheap apartment and a job, that he or she then has Russian citizenship revoked? Of course you cannot disown your own nationality. But then when they discover they have to serve for three (?) years in the military they don't feel so comfortable, and want to go back. But they can't.

Is it not also true that in some IDF units Russian is the only language spoken?

Has orthodox jews not criticized Sharons uncritical immigration policy?

Putin is of course a humanitaran and thinks that if people were fooled they are the more wiser. And he is looking into the matter.

Some semi-intelligent remarks to this would be appreciated.
