| 737331 | 2009-01-12 07:05:00 | The Jews absolutely believe that their god gave and promised the land to Abraham and his descendants. This absurd belief is really the root of the trouble. . Thank you, That tells me all I need to know |

| 737332 | 2009-01-12 07:29:00 | I'm not trying to be argumentative - it probably comes out that way! :) If I see a statement presented as fact when it cannot be proved, then I will stick in my oar . Without being a nitpicker, I wouldnt call the last 2000 years 'uninterrupted settlement' - the Romans and Byzantines certainly served up copious quantities of anti-Semitic persecution, but that's a side-issue . . . . . . :p Try these links: . wikipedia . org/wiki/Gaza#Ancient_and_Biblical_periods" target="_blank">en . wikipedia . org . wikipedia . org/wiki/Ancient_Egypt#New_Kingdom" target="_blank">en . wikipedia . org . friesian . com/notes/newking . htm" target="_blank">www . friesian . com The current conflict cannot and will not be resolved given both sides are coming from different ideological starting points, and the fact there is money to be made from conflict . The area in question is absolutely steeped in history which cannot be ignored when looking at any conflicts associated with the area in question . It has had more than it's fair share of conflicts over the past 3500 years and more than it's fair share of occupiers . The point is that there is so much history and persecution associated with this area that there is almost no hope for any world leader(s) to contrive a long-lasting and meaningful peace, especially whilst people feel they have been wronged . As a side note : in researching this you should also find the origin of the derogatory word 'philistine' . Andrew |

| 737333 | 2009-01-12 08:31:00 | Thank you, That tells me all I need to know I think one has to look at this statement........ (It also has to be remembered that the Jewish propaganda machine is enormous, worldwide, and backed by America.) Who would you say is getting bad press? |

Who would you say is getting bad press? It isn't really a question of who is happening to be getting a 'bad press' at any particular time, though it could be deduced perhaps that people and the media are beginning to see through the ongoing propaganda. The enormous tome "The Great War For Civilisation, The Conquest of The Middle East" (1368 pages in paper back) by Robert Fisk details the subtle and not so subtle propaganda methods used by both sides to twist the 'truth' to suit their particular agendas. I mentioned the Jewish propaganda machine because it is the most effective, it is world wide and coordinated. |

You say the Jews have a good propaganda machine,I have yet to see a good word about them.Just endless marches in favour of the Arabs. Irrespective of which experts we turn to,we are left having to choose a side and for me it seems the Jews are much maligned. And that is being both frank and earnest. |

| 737336 | 2009-01-12 09:08:00 | So, these protesters, do they really understand what is happening and why? ...Does the Palestinian propaganda machine not realise we know full well who fired 1st ending the peace accord? Are you referring to the cease fire between Hamas and Israel, which began in June 2008 and was broken by Israel in early November 2008? |

Allow me to be frank......:) Why do we have to choose a side? Why not be impartial and informed/uninformed spectators? In fact why even spectate? I think Metla may have got the solution in his first post in this thread.....except for the shrapnel part..... |

| 737338 | 2009-01-12 10:05:00 | Who would you say is getting bad press? All of them to be honest. The stench is over whelming and I offer my support to none of them, and that includes the protesters. Shooting rockets over the fence is done to get a response, they got what they asked for....and are probably more then happy with the result. Its just a game, a game where people die. A curse on them all. |

I am being Ernest:) when I say,that it is not a question of why we take side,the fact that is the tendency of most of us,same as a football game,or tennis etc. Some like Met can see the bigger overall picture and condemn the lot,but this is not available to the rest of us. |
