Palestine Or Israel?

[brynasmith]

When you watch the BBc or what ever else you must not see what is really going on. I live in Israel and around my city we are surounded by palastinians. Eveyday I go to work I get shot at or stones are thrown at my windows. anyone who owns a car here has to get bullet proof windows- and that doesn't always help.
I go into Jerusalem and I try not to get close to any other person. Who knows if he doesn't have excplosives in his bag. I mean come on, how can you ask us to live like that and not kill the terrorists that are responsible for the fact that some of my friends have been killed in bombings? who some of them so badly wounded that they'll never be able to talk about it. How can you expect us to sit down in our houses and do nothing while our family is being killed??? Is that what you would do??

Who do you support?

IMO-

I support Jews to have their own place to settle, but if they lost the land in a war, to the victor go the spoils.

Unless they can prove that the Bible which allows them Israel is non-fiction, I don't believe it.

The palestinians deserve their land back, but I don't agree with their ways of obtaining it.

How to settle this conflict? The palestinians have to agree to live peacefully with the Isrealis, but get rid of those idiotic checkpoints 1 by 1.  Palestinians should not be restricted to their little patch of land, they owned all of Isreal at one point, can they not all coexist?

you say:"I support Jews to have their own place to settle, but if they lost the land in a war, to the victor go the spoils."
for your information the jew captured israel by war, they didn't recieve just because they believe that it belongs to them. You have your facts wrong, it's the pales. who believe they can get the land as a present that it belongs to them.
Maybe you should know your facts before you state your opinion.

Every one needs to calm down.

There has been so much blood spilt. I don't believe killing people will ever make Palestine/Israel or this world for that matter, a safer place to live in. What is the truth? Who is right, who is wrong. The answer probably is, we just don't know.

First the killings must stop. No more retaliation. Maybe even a little less media coverage.

I have friends who are Palestinian and I have friends who are Israelis. I do know they are all human beings. Every one has the right to live in peace; that their children may grow up in a safe and loving environment. This possibity has been stolen from the children of your region. They will grow up with hate and revenge embedded in their hearts. That's why it is important to try and create NOW the prerequisite for peace for your people in the future.

Somebody has to take the first step to end this constant downward spiraling. Maybe it should be YOU.

@ edit. The topic was Who do you support, Palestine or Israel> I support Israel and Palestine.

missile attack that killed 150 palestinians=reaction of troops to a suicide attack some 3-5 hours earlier...
second, babies shot in the head and kids with their guts spillin out is kinda gross, dont pur it that way mate... these are the answer to palestinian militant terrorist groups that are out there to stop the peace process, what they want- the whole of the land of israel to be palestine. what we, the israelis want- peace and quiet...
take a moment to think about what your saying before posting.

p.s: i am israeli, i have the experience to tell you what i typed above, so with all due respect, i think i deserve a little more respect ot my words...

[thewizeard]

Not getting any more peaceful though. Tommorow or next week the next attack as retribution. Nobody is winning everyone is losing. This is thus not the solution. As for respect, that can't be forced either.

[tralalala]

so whats your suggestion smart arse?? ^_^

Read again what I wrote earlier, go and sit down and think about it. You say you want respect for your words, you could possibly get it, if you were more polite?

Manners maketh man!

Now what exactly makes no sense. If I had the answer to the problem there would have been peace many years ago. What would you wish for me to edit? If it would bring peace and quiet I would gladly do so.

as i said a few posts ago, you cannot make anyone change their mind...
