I could never understand how someone could defend what happened there. One thing we need to remember is that you should never blame an entire group of people though for what the leaders have done. I believe the leaders of Israel screwed everyone in that area and disturbed the peace of so many nations. I will never blame the Jews as a whole though, just like I don't blame the Germans for the Holocaust, the Spanish for the Inquisition and so on. This only leads to hate and scapegoating, and leads to more wars.

You're exactly right Pandora. It's a tragic situation, but if one blames a group of people then that will cause more problems.
Although, I find it interesting that the Jews in the Old Testament, the "Chosen Ones" according to some, kicked out the native inhabitants of Palestine, going so far as committing genocide against whole races of people because of their "sinful inferiority". I'm not implying that Jews are responsible for that but it's just an interesting parallel.

Did you know that every day muslims fire rockets into Israel?
Did you know that Ahmadinejad has said that muslims need to wipe israel off the map?
Did you know that muslims engage in terrorist activities every day?
Did you know that muslims deny the holocaust?
Did you know that the areas occupied by israel were occupied only because israel won the war against Egypt, Syria and several other Arab countries?
Did you know that that war was not started by Israel but by the Arab nations?

Do you know that this website is for learning different languages?

I think that mision of this site is making new friends, this should be a place where we can meet people from diferent countries and nationalities and talk about nice things. There are 1 milion websites where you can talk about politics, dont do it here.

Harregarre please say true things!!!!! you dont know whats happening in whole word?!?!?!

I believe that racialism is much more terrible and dangerous than nuclear weapon.
Free your mind - a nationality doesn't matter.

and what's happen with comments? if you ask a question - pls listen an answers

When Israel was founded 60 years ago, I can understand why the Jewish wanted an own nation. They were prosecuted in Europe for centuries, with it's peak in the Holocaust in the Third Reich. The only problem was that the region they founded their state already was inhabited by the Palestinians. But, since many European countries felt responsible for the Jewish and the USA had a powerful Jewish population, the Jewish were supported and the Palestinians had to leave their home. This caused reactions like Harregarre describes them. And as Israel now is threatened by Arab nations they react as described in the question. And people on both sides only see the injustice done by the other side and so justify their gouvernment's reaction. And talking about US politics: I think the greatest problem isn't that the USA is involved, but that President Bush wanted to leave the situation as it is right now (or actually 8 years ago) with the USA not involved. And that would really mean to leave an overpowered Israel that would be able to invade or even evtinguish all neighbour countries.

This is my oppinion on this topic.

People are so evil.How can someone watch what is happening and stay out of that?!
I wish I could at least help those refugees but it would be anyway for a short time.
We are in 21st century but we still have awful prejudices about some things.There are definitely many things I could never understand.

This is very bad since the wars do not help anybody and the people who lives through it cannot live in peace.
