King david hotel hero terrorists and all. Israel invented modern day terrorism and Israel chucks these dud rockets into unpopulated areas then responds. Sickos.
Ummm. The king David hotel wasnt a terrorist attack on civilians, but on british officials(this being their military headquarters at the time) . And for good reasons.
Please read up on these subjects before you comment on them.
And WELL WELL before Israel became a state Arabs were launching "terror" attacks on Israel neighborhoods. See the Hebron massacre, Safed massacre, Jersualem Riots 1936-39... Geezus man. Even the modern word "assassin" comes from an arabic word. This is typical arab military tactics.
Except in this context, people asininely and naively assume, due to the orgy porgy propaganda monster, that the PA "condemns" Hamas, or Al qsa brigade, or some other terror of palestinian origin. This is all strategy. Typical political talk. Machivaelli. and Hobbes talk all about it in depth. Read leo Strauss "thoughts on machiavelli" to get a deeper idea about how politcs really works.
These attacks are ACTS OF WAR, that for decades have been treated as anything but that.

The last palestinian houses to be bulldozed were courtesy of Hamas www.nytimes.com...
Now thats ironic. The "democratically elected" government in Gaza, Hamas, does exactly that which the demonized Israel for.

This happens all the time in other countries. Yet when Israel does it, its world news.
Care to show what other country does this?
I mean, goes into another country and arrests hundreds of people to try and find one or a few criminals??

gday, we might have to give him that one.
As i could think of a few.
America and Our combined ALLIED forces on the war against terror.
No sorry my mistake they dont arrest that many people at once they just seem to blow people up with predator drones and smart bombs.
Sorry my bad
Israel is at the “very top of the list” when it came to human-rights violations, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said, showing little thaw in relations between the once-close countries.
This works, and IS the case because 95% of Jews ARE zionists.

You know a few Jews? fantastic.
Maybe ill reduce that number to 90%. As there are Jewish liberal fanatics and a few orthodox groups(Neturei Karta) that are anti-zionist/israel.
But i can assure you the VAST majority of Jews are zionist. If zionist means defending Israels right to exist, and given Jewish history, educated Jews understand very clearly the NEED for a Jewish state with self representation, and a Jewish state should exist nowhere else than their holy land, the land of Israel, than most Jews are zionist.
This shouldnt be surprising.
I cant find any statistics. all i know is that MOST orthodox Jews i know support Israel. Obviously not the seculae society, or the government there, but they defend Judaisms right for Israel.
Most secular, non religious Jews i know are zionist, and pro Israel.
