kapkomet Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 "You Jews" is just as discriminatory! Brutha, you really got to look at the spirit of people when they post. 99% of the people on this board have no hatred or racism - they just generalize. It might be poor choice of words that we use but you're just as guilty. So for the 100th time in the last couple of weeks (glad to see where you actually admitted you were wrong, btw) please quit labeling everyone racist just because they oppose your viewpoint. You definitely got a hot button. What if someone walked up to you at your TSA job, would you rake them over the coals for poor choice of words or would you let it slide, knowing they meant no harm? Just sayin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapkomet Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 When someone says, "no wonder everybody hates the Jews." , how would you take it? I'd take it in the context of what they were saying and not parse out two words out of a sentance and start calling people racist. I know it's a sensitive subject but labeling people racist over poor choice of words makes you just as bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlliniBob72 Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 My question for I4L would be, is what Israel is doing working? Other than gaining vengeance, what is accomplished by these assassinations? If Israel is looking for revenge, it's a good tactic, but if it is looking to effect change, then I doubt it's working. Israel has taken this hard line approach for decades and nothing has changed. Is it time to come up with a new gameplan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zach61 Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 You Jews are so sensitive. You take to personal attacks and then don't like it if you're generalized when you want to speak for a whole country. And then right away, you want to play the race card and say I don't like Jews if I don't agree with you. Actually, I have nothing against Jews and I even forgave them for killing Jesus.

LowerCaseRepublican Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Apu, How much of the conflict is the fault of Palestinians and in one or two paragraphs, is there anyway to justify bombs on buses and other civilian targets? I cannot think of one reason. I think the PA takes some of the blame in feeding the violence that is continually going on...radical fringes just like the extreme right wing Likud party in Israel. It's true that the majority of the people in both countries...the Jews aren't big fans of the Likud party (there was a recent vote of no confidence in Sharon that almost won) and a lot of Palestinians are not big fans of HAMAS, Islamic Jihad, Al Aqsas Martyrs Brigade, etc. It's just the dire straights that has played so many people into the respective groups. It's difficult to give a percentage saying that they are responsible for this quantified amount but I'd say it's about 30% Palestinian fault if I had to put a percentage amount out there. (then about 45% Israel and then 25%US etc.) As for the suicide bombings, I don't condone them but I understand why they happen. I can see the mindset of a person pushed to the edge enough to want to do something like that...almost like the kid who brings a gun to school and shoots up his cafeteria. Strictly militarily, the Palestinians can't fight Israel at all (thanks to so much US aid to Israel) so they are forced to resort to stone throwing and suicide attacks. I don't condone it but with the economic dire straits they are in and the active role that Israel is playing to not help them out (even going around Arafat to help everyday Palestinian Joe Schmoes), I understand the reasons that there can be a deep seeded hatred for Israel...just like many Likud-niks hate Palestinians.

1549 Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Stopping a street gang is easy. Send in a mechanized infantry battalion to the South Side, use Bradleys to level crack houses and armored humvees with .50 cals to run down and capture or kill any and all suspected gang members. In one night you could totally eliminate Chicago's gang problem. It's too bad that most folks find this solution unpalatable. I am sorry that I am responding to this late, but it is so ridiclous it made me laugh. This solution was used in 1968...have you seen detroit lately? Remind me if I am mayor not to put someone from the military in charge of any street gang task forces. (Sorry for blasting Detroit CW, but it still hasn't healed...even you can admit that) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texsox Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Texsox...where was the outrage and world's condemnation when on November 4, 2002, the US killed 6 suspected al-Qaida members in Yemen with a Hellfire missile fired from an unmanned CIA drone at the car in which they were travelling? (CNN) This is silly. You cannot justify one action by another. The assassinations was wrong. To go back and say "well he pushed me first, no he did", has gotten both sides to this point. Is it more important to be correct or to end the bloodshed? Its you against the world. I will side with world opinion that assassinations are wrong.

LowerCaseRepublican Posted March 23, 2004 Share Posted March 23, 2004 Saw this on Fark and had to post it. Israel says all militant leaders Marked for Death, no one is Above the Law. Israelis are Out For Justice, Militant Leaders are Hard to Kill. Arafat still Under Siege, Palestinians Under Siege 2. All of Middle East is On Deadly Ground.
