For folks interested in history, not propaganda, which doesn't include you, by the way, a cursory study of the history of the area is acknowledged ethnic cleansing by the Israelis. Admitted. Owned. They're proud of it.

Only US conservatives deny that. The Rest of the World knows it.

So, you have the IDF attacking people with some rockets, AK-47s, and some RPGs. You have Israel invading entire countries, in response to the kidnapping of 2 soldiers.

After Israel has kidnapped countless Muslims, tortured them, robbed banks, shut off water, power, travel rights, anything to make life miserable for Palestinians.

To make out Israel as a victim is to deny what Israel professes.

But you do.

And one can't expect anything from anyone who can't admit Bush has lied his ass off to get people into this war, who believe there is a "win" out there, who have gone from nukes to wmds to "democracy" without a twinge of conscience.

Takes a certain level of maturity to see reality.
