It's plain and simple for there to be peace in Palestine and Isreal. Isreal needs to stop the occupation of the land. That, of course, is what began this whole conflict.
People in America are so blind..How can you argue with the killings of hundreds of Palestinians weekly or even daily. On the american news you are only hearing one side of the story. America is made up of so many jews, in Holywood, news anchors, jurnalists...etc. And i believe that has a big thing to do with how we are hearing and believing of what is going on over there.
I am not against jews or anything. I have many jewish friends and love to learn about their culture, I am just against what the Isrealis are doing to the Palestinians. i will also have you know that Sharon has been trialed as a war criminal in Europe.
What i am most stunned about is when the UN had a vote of if we should send proctection to the Palestinians. EVERY country agreed that we should EXCEPT for ( of course) America. PROTECTION people! Can you imagin! we aren't even asking for the Palestinans land back(which i think they should get back anyways), just protection from getting killed.
All I want you to do is try to look at the other side of the story and ask yourself questions before believing one thing. I know and hope the peace will come eventually and don't be afraid to speak out what you feel. That's the only way people will know how you are feeling about this.

Israel itself IS an invasion!First there was Palestine which contained Palestinian Muslims,Christians and Jews.Then the occupying England decides to put all jews in a part of Palestine.Then they leave and Israel takes up ALL of Palestine And they want more surrounding territory!And Jews from all over the world automatically have the Israeli nationality,as though being Jewish were a Nationality and not a religion.How can you even say that they're not transgressing?The land belonged to PALESTINIANS of all religions,not all JEWS of all nationalities!!If that's not an invasion,then I don't know WHAT is;and if that's fair,then I can't imagine what you could possibly think of as wrong!

Also,you obviously either don't know or are choosing to ignore the fact that Israelis ordered and allowed the MASSACRE of Palestinians in refugee camps,by Christian Lebanese,for which Sharon was forced to resign ,but never convicted(though he sooo deserves it).Never hurt anyone,huh?

As for the palestinians,they don't have a real army,how else can they possibly get their l;and and their rights back when it's not a situation of justice but one of "survival of the fittest?"
And what about the Palestinians scattered around the world because they don't have a "nationality",anymore?Or how about the many many Palestinians jailed in Israel without their rights ?There's a 14-year old girl in there right now,without even being allowed to see or speak to her family,and all because a full-grown Israeli soldier said she "attacked"him(without arms)!!!And all the while,the Israeli army is composed of men,women AND children,and Jews around the world are encouraged to go to Israel for trips and army camping!Peaceful people.

As for "never bombing anyone",I beg to differ.In 1967 Israel invaded Sinai in Egypt and other Arab lands.My family can still remember it.Is this their land too?Is this right?And even when they were kicked right out again in 6th of October,1973,and a "treaty" was held.they still sent ISRAELI PROSTITUTES,INFECTED WITH AIDS to spread the disease in Egypt in the early 90s.HOW LOW-DOWN AND DIRTY IS THAT????

I DARE YOU to say,with a clear conscience that they're the good guys!But,if my impression of you according to what you said is correct,you're just intent on defending them,no matter what they're doing (or what you think they're doing).

Let me also add that your media is not giving you the right versions of events,always.Also,that your CNN and CNN International sometimes give different information from one another(and International is closer to the truth).

that Isreal has been getting the brunt of everything. I believe Isreal has done a great job in managing their country. Not to mention the fact that Isreal never bombs anyone else....they are attacked . All they have been doing is defending themselves. I myself being a Christian believe that once so-called peace comes about in the Middle east that the end times are coming. I do not expect anyone to criticize me on that either.

But personally I feel sympathy for Isreal and only Isreal. I believe that they have done everything just and right.

I believe we can hope for peace, although I am not so sure we should be. I am a christian who belives in god and jesus strongly. I believe God will do what is right. And if this war is not suposed to end for a while, then it wont. I hope that this war will not continue. My school is thankful that no one has lost any parents yet in the attacks or the war. I believe all we can do at home right now, is keep sending money to the firefighters, give your love to your family and friends, and pray. That is all I ask of you today.
