Title: Interesting principles, Luvvie Name: Johnboy City: Sydney State: Australia
..."ensure each side`s leadership makes its own decisions relating to its citizens. She stressed that any administration should act according to these basic principles on the matter of refugees"... Those refugees are claiming that they are Israeli citizens by birthright, Livni. They are correct. What you are claiming is that ANOTHER nation - Palestine - has to take those refugees off your hands simply because you don`t want them. Why should Palestine do that, Luvvie, when you offer them no incentive to do that? "and Israel`s security just as President George Bush outlined in a recent letter signed by `The U.S. Congress`." Notice it is always "Israel`s security"? Notice how nobody ever talks about "Palestine`s security". It is to be left defenseless before Israel even after "independence". I would have thought that a people who have just suffered 40 years of military occupation at the hands of the IDF would find that hard to stomach.
