Terrorism and warfare is not the same thing, period

The Palestineans are a sick, twisted and violent society that has contributed NOTHING to the world ( typical Muslims) and they will be put down like mad dogs one day and I won't shed (1) stinkin tear for them, because they had so many chances and they choose more violence over peace.

If the shoe were on the other foot and a Muslim power was occupying the U.S. and that foreign power had far superior military means, I have no doubt that Americans, if backed into a corner, would resort to extreme means to defend what they believe in. What state is it that says “Live free or die”? In other words defend what you believe in or die trying.
The real question is what is Zionism? No doubt there have been many discussions in this conference on this issue and you have made studies in this regard, and you may know what I want to emphasize, but it is something worth mentioning.
We must see what the real story of Palestine is. Is the conflict in Palestine a war between some Jews on the one side and Muslims and non-Jews on the other side? Is it a war between the Jews and other faiths? Is it the war of one country with other countries? Is it the war of one country with the Arab world? Is the conflict only over the limited lands of Palestine? I think the answer to all these questions is negative.

Excuse me for not having a 'link' here but I read somewhere a recruiter for Hamas' homicide bombing 'faction,' for lack of a better description, called someone else in the Hamas organization and got his wife on the phone. The recruiter said he wanted to speak to her son about becoming a homicide bomber. The women told the recruiter that she wouldn't let her son become one.
Arafat has already been offered statehood. Arafat's net worth was estimated at 10 Billion dollars. Money that comes from the U.S., E.U., and Arab nations Arafat considers being his own. There are about 2 million people in the west bank and he has 10 billion??? - do the math. Their own leader oppresses them more than Israel.
I also find it bizarre that Arafat's wife lives in Paris? No jihad for her?

I disagree strongly. Yes, we would resort to guerilla tactics to kill the enemy, but we wouldn't kill ourselves to maybe kill a few of them. We would die fighting, but we would try to live as long as we could to fight on. Our culture doesn't glorify intentional suicide, and no matter who was occupying our country, our mothers would NOT be happy and proud if we told them we were going to kill ourselves, no matter the cause.

even if it was true that the muslims of this particular area are indoctrinated to believe that this is what is needed to expell the invader,
you have to wonder what exactly caused them to feel the need to go to such extreme lengths TC?
there has to be some cause behind it.
no people are like this for no reason, regardless of whether you think its a good reason or not there still has to be one.
dont you wonder what that is?

this is what palestinians are pissed of about becuase if they agree to israels "peace" deals they loose the right to claim back there 250,000+ property and this is why the palestinains have never accepeted a peace deal with israel becuase israel refuses to the "right of return" which means they have to give back the property which they stole from the palestinains.
