Israel must leave the governance of Gaza to the duely elected representatives of its people. Of course, being the ultimate rogue state, Israel will ignore international law so long as it has a partner like the United States. However, try as she may, Israel cannot conceal her crimes against the Palestinian people and against humanity in general by "righteous" indignation at the people who are trying to liberate themselves from one of the longest occupations in the history of mankind.

The legitimately elected government in Gaza has a basic right to purchase arms just like any other sovereign state. The US is being hypocritical by supporting Israel's blockade on Gaza. Every citizen in the US has a right to bear arms as stated in Amendment 2 of the US Constitution.

When the unarmed population in Gaza was bombarded for several days from jet fighters, tanks, warships, war ships aassinateded 400 school kids and babies CNN projected that the population of 3 or 4 countries will react most violent and swed Greece als in red color. Every thing was organized so that "anrchists", mostly hooligans and Albanians will prevale in the media. Once again ""anarchsts" manifestations are programmed for the end of this month by the 20 Soros's NGOs,so may be will be done once again what Tsipi Lini said. What an honeur! Chomki himself will address the "anarcistis" in Athens from hhis PC. Management preparation procedures: 1.- US general consulate in Thessaloniki was financing posters {I keep such a copy},illigaly posted in the streets, all in english, inviting to mainly musical events with groops bearing names suc as "Revolution", "Expolosion", "Street War" and such. 2.- At least 3 of the 5 buildings occupied by "anrchists" were "rent" from the 2.000 jews who own much of the center of Thessaloniki. Why?not only te empede manifastations for Palestine, but also because theywant to weaken every authority in Thessaloniki, beccause they want to materialize their old plan to institute an Alternative "Israel" in Thessaloniki "the mother of jews". 3.- The ex prime minister and may be future one from a jewish descent is president of the Socialist Internatinal with vice president Barak who was the minisiter of defence of "Israel" during the bombardments. He was urging the people to go in the streets and even in Christmas waw time was tauking about abulgarian union member agressed by ... nobody knows who threw against her acid. The city was covered with different posters about her...Important, but more imported is that 20.000 greeks lost their lives from mainly albanian asaults but nobody taulks about that.. because it woul be a racist manifestation. The jeish media all over the warld were considering more important what was happening in Greece, compared with the bombardent of Hospitals, Schools etc in Gaza and they were repeating again and again that the young greecs {some of them Albanian bandits with covered faces} were yealing "Pigs, assassins Policemen. Why? Because the bombardment in gaza started from police stations. We are approaching EU elections. One of the aims is to descredit Karamanlis who deals with Russians. Will Tsipi Lini take advntage of the rehearsal of the foreign manipulated riots?

Let's look at the facts. In 1948 boundaries were established by the UN and Britain in what was to be, Israel. The Israeli's instead of respecting that, they promptly ignored that. From then on they used there influence in many countries to persecute the Palestinians. I am sick and tired of hearing what happened to the Jews the holocaust. It's done, it's over. Learn from it but don't repeat it. There are new generations. They're NOT responsible for what there forefathers did nor should the Jews try to hold them responsible for it. They've milked it enough. Remember, millions died as well. They gave their lives in the cause of the Jews. For breaking the rules, they should be punished. What did the US do in Kosovo and Serbia? This self righteousness is sickening.

Are you expecting Israel to just take being bombed by missles daily sitting down. If the idiots in the Gaza and Terrorists in Lebanon cannot control themselves then by all rights they should be dealt with. Put yourself in there position and tell me you wouldn't do anything. Once Iran is destroyed, Syria and the rest of the useless terrorists won't have a breeding ground to stand on.

Wildey Moore, yes the borders were set. And you know what then happened? Israel was attacked in several wars by their "nice" neighbors. All the land which out of boundary was taken as a result of those wars.Israel was defending itself. If you do not want your land to be taken from you do not start the war. If you start the war, then it is a big a possibility you will lose and your land will be taken. That is the way of things, Wildey. Did not you know? Go Israel!!! Thank you for keeping is safe here in US by not letting terrorists take other. If some people so blind to see it it is their problem.

Nadia and Iransucks, you are spectacluarly ignorant of history to the point that one must ask if you should really be burdening us with your vapid and tiresome opinions. How would you like someone stealing your land and livelihood and killing your friends and families based on a selective (some might say 'twisted') reading of a historical text, over the course of 60 years? Maybe you would fight back? There can be no justification for terrorists targetting civilians, but only a raging hypocrite would fail to apply the same moral judgement to a nation such as Israel, who's leaders are guilty over the last 60 years of mass murder, the deliberate targetting of civilians, a complete disregard for international law, the illegal annexation of Palestinian land, illegal blockades and many illegal military actions. Would you just take 60 years of land grabs, bombings, shootings, racism, murder, ghetto-isation and flagrant breaches of international law? Or would you fight back? Can you say you would carry on life peacefully and with dignity, as the vast majority of Palestinians have? And Israel doesn't protect from terrorism, they are actually responsible for the radicalisation of many young men by their continued abuse of the Palestinian people: they have done more to further 'terrorist' causes then anyone else by fuelling the fires of injustice. In short, you have both been heavily propagandised and mislead, leading you to make intellectually redundant arguments that betray either an extreme hypocrisy, or an extreme ignorance, or both. I would suggest that you start thinking for yourselves and learn your subject matter before you spout off any more ill thought out nonesense.
