How to SPIN a Military Occupation as * Self-Defense *

Great video! I actually just reposted it in a bulletin on myspace---i hope you don't mind.

And let me explain something to you about these militants and their supporting cast of "civilians." The reason why Israel uses such "disproportionate" force is because these Palestinians value life in a much different manner than you or I.

You can try to rationalize it any you way you want but Israel can't claim self defense when they are the occupying military force.

Palestinians are being slaughtered and they can not escape what is for all intents and purposes a concentration camp.

Civilians are being murdered.

Yep. Those very same civilians who elected Hamas and support them in their targeting and killing of Israeli civilians. Those very same civilians who willingly hide Hamas in their homes and then are surprised when their homes get bombed. Those very same civilians that danced on the streets when 9/11 happened and the World Trade Centers went down.

Yep. THOSE civilians.

Thank you... very thought provoking and adds to a couple of other things I wondered about...

It amazes me when people refuse to believe that these militants don't care about their civilian population, and they don't give a DAMN about any history with Israel. They fight because they HATE Jews. Hamas is one of the most hate-filled organizations in the world and people sympathize with them. Go figure.

This a very common mistake you are making. You think that these people ony behave through hate and without reasons. This is typicall orientailst-colonialist thinking. No, they have many reasons to hate. Please read:

The video is rubbish. What cridible people? This is propaganda. I am sick of people trying to defend either side.
Well after half a century and several wars, Isreal is stronger then ever. That indeed must be Allah's will. Now it is time for both sides to accept the sistuation and begin serious negotiations.

This is not propaganda and I (as well as the interviewers) am not defending one side. On the contrary, it exposes a well organized propoganda web operating since many years. Israel was always strong, not especially now. But it is highly suspect from where does this "strongness" come.

O cool, I guess they identified all 900 civilians before killing them...
