OK Even assuming what you say is true and not doctored in any way or transformed to suite the mindset of extreme individuals - then, according to your definition the only people not guilty of terrorism are probably the Tahiti and Micronasia - I think I herd of a story that a policeman in one of these Isalnds arrested a local and forgot him in the holding cell for a month.
So I guess to define terrorism we need to be a bit more specific and not generalize the definition to include just about every country on this god forsaken rock we call Earth.
The point is not 'who isn't guilty of being a State Sponsor of Terrorism. The pointis that The USA and ISRAEL are not accused publicly or scrutinized by their allies. That they can get away with it and it not even be in our own history books is a farce in the name of freedom and liberty.
Sure many countries have terror within their borders. But the USA and ISRAEL are different in that they Sponsor it across borders and they are supposed to be Developed Countries (Israel is still developing in many ways though)
Once again I suggest you read the whole post so we don't have repititious arguements that kill discussion. We are not talking about 'terrorism' we are talking about State Sponsorship of Terror. Don't know the difference? REview the last 2 pages before this one.

and then you talk about apartheid? That seems to be contradictory don't you think?
apartheid: n. racial segregation and discrimination (in South Africa).
Fisrt off, Jews and Arabs are Semitic therefore race has nothing to do with it. The difference is religion. How many Arab countries are there? How many Muslim countries are there? How many Christian countries are there? How many Jewish countries? Yet Israel is the problem?
why would I be a racist? I didnt even use the word jew OR semitic in my post. by the way, i am an arab, and have been the victim of racism, so I'm the last person likely to be a racist. I have no problem with the israeli people. For the most part, the moderate (ie non-radical zionists) are good, hardworking people. However, that does not stop Israel from being an illegitimate state, born of violence and theft against the palestinians.

Why is it that anyone who criticizes Israel is anti-Semitic? I thought Arabs were also Semitic people...
Seriously, though. I agree that the US and Israel sponsor terror. Though this is something of a sidenote, it's public that Israel sponsors white slavery right now! And forget about the ill-equiped Palestinians who have been bulldozed, blown to smithereens, etc. And, Oops, I think I have a couple more examples for you...
I'll bring sources later because I'm drunk and I don't feel like posting them now. There was an Israeli troop who shot a young Palestinian girl dead. Afterwards, he riddled the body with bullets. But, it was OK because the girl was supposedly dead already.
At a checkpoint, Israeli troops made a Palestinian man play his fiddle for them. This was a big deal because it was reminiscent of what Nazis did to Jews at checkpoints. However, the people weren't upset because of the incident; they were upset because it was an insult to Jews that they did this to the man.
Our govt has a document called Operation Northwoods, which authorizes the use of terror acts on US citizens as a means to get the country to go to unpopular wars.
Key elements in our govt orchestrated 9/11, easily the biggest terror attack of the new millenium yet.

Think what you will of this source, but www.jewwatch.com... has a good database of Israeli Atrocities. Also check out www.thememoryhole.org... for a good deal of 'forgotten' American activities such as Operation Northwoods. You guys need to get over your nationalism and realize that we aren't always the good guys here. Even if your 'scoial' studies teachers told you we were.

Its obvious that we are not always the good guys but when comparing the US or Israel to the Palestinians, Iraqis, Syrians, Iranians, Egyptians or Lebanese we are FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR better. We as Christians or Jews can criticize our religous openly - Muslims cannot do that (See SALMAN RUSHDIE). Freedom in the US and Israel is far better than that in any of the above nations.
We need to put things in perspective and deal with REAL issues and not minor technicalities and customized definitions of the word TERRORISM.
Regarding that jewwatch site - DISGRACE. No nation or religion is clean but concentrating all the sh*t one can find about a group (be it truth or a lie) is deplorable. Jews have been persecuted throughout the ages and with this filth on the web it seems that it will never end.
But I guess blaming the Jews is easiler, they are only 15 million world wide and they have no oil.

The whole "Jews have been persecuted for all time" thing is a cop out. Did anyone miss what Africans and those of African descent have gone through? Oh, no one cares, I guess...
White slavery is not the opposite of slavery involving Africans and the like. It is basically organized prostitution. European women and girls (yes, underage) are either tricked into going to Israel looking for a decent job or they go willingly because they don't know how bad it is. In other cases, they kidnap them. Some of these women then go to other countries who have deals with the Israelis.
Check it out for yourself, it is real.

I wonder why Jews have been persecuted through the ages. Is it because they have big noses? Is it because they are tight fisted?
No. It is because of their own actions. Wherever they have gone, they destabilised the existing population. Jews do not believe in integration and in doing righteaous deeds for the good of all. Jews believe in accumalation of as much wealth as is possible by any means necessary.
