I was wrong,
what more do you want me to say,
you know I thought you were really cool and Im sorry i offended you. And I am not going to further discuss my political views of Israel and the Palestinian because they are irrelevant,
no matter what I say its not going to change the situation in Israel, and no matter what you say its not going to change the situation, and Its very disturbing to me that the Jews and Palestinians cant live in peace but both sides are not completely innocent, what I am ashamed of are the actions of former Prime Minister Menachem Bagin but these were actions way before he became prime minister, this was when in retaliation for attacks on Israeli civilians, he led his spec. Ops in doing the same thing to Palestinian citizens. This does disgust me. But there is never going to be peace if each side insults and mocks the other. I just watched an interview on NBC last night with Yasser Arafat and 3/4's of the interview was dominated with him saying that the Israelis are liars, and the American propoganda is lies, and that everyone is a liar and that he is jut an innocent man being abused by lying governments left and right.
That is not a way to work towards peace. The whole situation is ironic and almost incomprehendable because the Palestinians are blowing themselves up because the Israelis are intruding on their lands and aresting the people organizing these suicide bombings and attacks, and the Israelis are going in and arresting these people because they are planning these attacks and bombings. It is an endless cycle. The Palestinians have a right and deserve to be allowed to live with full rights in Israel, but so do the Israelis. The Palestinians dont need a seperate state, and the Israelis dont need a seperate state, if everyone would just cast aside their religious beliefs and share the country we wouldnt have these problems. If the Palestinians worked peacefully for theirs rights like Martin Luther King Jr. did then it would be much more effective. But as long as they are voilent they are just pushing themslves farther from peace, and they are only heightening the anger of the Israelis. But when you have a leadership that threatens to not control terrorism unless you give them everything they want, something they dont necessarily deserve to have only for themselves, then there is a big problem. Like these snipers in the I forgot what its called, but the big church in bethlehem... If you watch the news it says the Israelis and Palestinians are going on with discussion to end the violence from the church. If the Palestinian leadership has to get something in return for doing something they are obligated to do, its just as if Yasser Arafat himself is inthe church with a sniper rifle. I hate the hipocracy that comes from both sides. Why cant this just end!!!!
and thats basically all I had to say...
