Really, why is that? Are my published sources completely off base, or are you, Azazel, planning to embark on a selfless program of impregnating every woman you see?

I'm including the territories in the above count.

In that case, you're right, but Israel won't be contolling the territories in 20 years, anyway.

once in a while i like to see that wa-hat goes around comes around...
this is one of those cases.
how many young man and women had to die because of this old man's mental disease. this one got what he deserved...
however : again, 8 people were wounded as 'collateral damage'. yet another example of how the idf stands towards palestinian civilians... so when the next bus blows up the right can say again how outraged they are, without giving a second thought of the causes of this misery.

8 people were wounded.
Of course, I am sure you have better ideas how to kill him or capture him, without any harm done.

You may be right, considering the steady stream of Jews from Russia.

The stream of Jews from France might increase in the future, as well.

this very post shows your view on the value of the live of a 'normal' palestian citizen, now doesn't it ?
and yavoon
busses would be blown up at a significant lesser rate if the average palestinian actually had something to live for ...

While that's a safe bet, I wasn't trolling in this particular case. Shocking, I know.

how does that IN ANY WAY address my question? obviously u've inserted ur own view into my statement.
1)I didnt say nething about lessening the rate
2)I didnt mention "live for" which is ridiculously convenient.
look the entire arab world is a craphole. what are we suppose to do? hand them money? the rest of the arab world would be in a similarly craptastic situation if they didnt have oil to feed them.
if the palestinians want something to live for, why not stop being murderous hooligans who follow a religion of hate and oppression. THAT MIGHT GET THE BALL ROLLING.

How much do you want the IDF to value it? infinitely? There is the value of the Israeli civilians as well, to consider, and this man, in his coordination, and spiritual guidance, certainly contributed to the deaths of many.

ok, let me rephraze it
which of your two governements is democratic and actually has control over its armed forces : yours
which country has actually an industry to financially back up its policies : yours
so who do you think has the power to change things : you
not those murderous hooligans who following the religion of hate and oppression because it is the only thing that they have left...
I AM pleased that one of the leaders who was milking this sentiment to further his own glory is dead.
But it is up to you guys to for once in your history reach out a helping hand to your neighbours.

actually, 7 more people were KILLED, ( including his body guards), Yet I still don't it as anything but ethical. I sure would like to avoid as many deaths as possible, but still. Let's, even forget the ethical background of the man's action: By law, when targetting an enemy inside a civilian territory, the military must:
a) attempt to not hurt any civilians.
b) if that's not possible, try to assess the cost/benefit of that action. If he was just a Hamas peon, of course that would be unlawful, but this is not the case.

yes because never before in the history of western civilization has the west HELPED ANYONE....EVER...SERIOUSLY...IF WE JUST DID IT ONCE OUR PROBLEMS WOULD BE SOLVED.
k yah that caps felt good.
all evil needs to thrive is for good men to do nothing. the arab world appears to be full of good men doing nothing. so this is what they get. like anyone will chime in, **** needs to be changed from within, it can only be bludgeoned crudely from outside. so ur idea that us handing them flowers will make it all better is simply not going to work.

they live in an extraordinarily unjust land. oppression is rampant, cruelty is inherent and tennets that keep the first two in place are practiced w/ religious devotion.

yeah, your current approach does seem to get the job done ...
however, it's in your country that you jave to be afraid to take the bus, go out at night to a bar or do whatever you want
so, if you feel you're on the right way, be my guest to continue. I am not going to lose any sleep over it. It takes two to fight, so you brought it both upon yourselves, and you are both wrong.
and i don't need caps to make my point.

u have three simultaneous dillusions in this thread.
its two for love and one for war.
that somehow ur way is going to change anything.
and more generally there is some magical way that will make life better.
what if u were getting ur children blown up by a ppl who's stated goal was to kill every last one of u? would u hand them a flower? how many flowers would u hand them so they would do u the favor of blowing up fewer buses full of civilians?

Azazel,
in your opinion are the policies of your government successfully solving the problem you guys have with the palestinians? Are the policies of your government solving the issues with all the countries surrounding yours that do not like your country. This is not an attack. I'm just curious as to whether you are happy with the progress your country is making towards peace and tranquility in the region.

Looks like the Israeli security forces have been a bit too successful in stopping terrorists for Sharon's liking. This should stir up a few choice suicide bombings so he can renege on his 'commitment' to end the Gaza settlements.

Rome was first a city state, and at that time it fought against opponents the same size. Only when they defeated their counterpart Carthage they started expanding rapidly, and Romans soon began to include all Italians. And later under Caracalla the entire empire was considered 'Roman'. Rome was more than just that one city, that under emperor Traianus consisted of about 1-1,2 million inhabitants. At that time an enormous amount.
Most big cities such as Seleucia or Alexandria etc had around 200 000 inhabitants (and they were considered huge cities), and places like Pompei with only around 13 000 inhabitants or so were seen as 'cities' and not as villages like we would do now.
I would not consider Rome as a super small country.
PS: England at the time was one of the biggest and most powerful countries as well so I don't see what you mean there

Actually, Trajanus, I think that even before the destruction of carthage, Roman homeland included all of campagnia (sp?), as well.
