That's the whole problem imo, the more military troops you send in, the more hostile they get, which is quite natural of course! Also, you guys probably never have heard of it but: If you treat your population well, they won't complain and you wouldn't have had this conflict, perhaps how I'm saying this now, seems a bit simplistic, but I still think it's true!

that's not true
recent polls actually show that the areas in which IDF worked, the support for terrist actions has dropped by a quarter. this compared to gaza

How does your brother feel about the settlements?
|
no particular feeling. he's not lefty if you ask this. neither is he a believer in a wider israel.

Being that he would be guarding illegally held territory, that would make him a legitimate military target...
|
irrelevently what he's guarding, once he's in uniforms he is techncally a legit target.

If I were him, I would ask to be transferred somewhere else, unless he believes in what he's doing.

that's nice, but the army can't ask people's opinions - it gives orders.
my brother, just likes me, believes in abiding the law, leaving the political decision (and the territories ARE a political decision) to the politicians.

Actually, he said that it's possible he won't be assigned to a settlement, and will instead guard within Israel.
I'm not sure though, since he might have been "soothing the truth" when talking to my mom, so she won't worry.

She's not a real rehead.
She has light brown hair (was blond when she was younger).
It's a color wash.

Yeah, so?
You were talking about him being a legitimate military target. I simply said that such things aren't important to the pals. They kill anybody.
Whether or not Americans or anybody else is a bloodthirsty murderer doesn't matter. Palestinians are. Unless you want to refute what I said, shut your trap.
|
I was merely pointing out your pathetic generalisation with a healthy dose of irony, which obviously went sailing far, far over your head...
So yes, I was already refuting what you said, but apparently you were not sufficiently mentally equipped to figure that out and therefore telling me to shut my trap is moot...

It would appear that he doesn't have any, given that he doesn't appear to be protesting the move.

Its begun.
I hope that none of our friends in Israel are injured or worse by Iraq. I pray for you all.

If they are, then I would blame the US for jumping the gun before the current round of weapons inspections had ended...
