In U.S., doubts over targeted assassinations are not as taboo as in Israel

bang

Does anyone else have that right? Do Palestinians involved in armed struggle have the same right to "strike down any enemy at any time"? That would of course not only mean that they can attack Israeli soldiers wherever and whenever, but also that they have the right in your view to assassinate Netanyahu or Avigdor Lieberman. If we take the view that anyone has the right at any time to kill whomever he or she sees as an enemy, then that makes literally everyone in the world fair game, so long as the target is seen as an enemy. Or is Israel the only country with that "right"? If so, why is this a right for Israel and for no one else? What confers upon Israel the right to "defend" itself if these rights aren't shared by every other country and citizen on the planet?

What an odd, twisted sense of morals you have. Was Stalin's murder of millions of his citizens OK too? And Pol Pot's murder of 1.8 million Cambodians - was that OK too? What makes you tick?

.. quite expected.

there remains only one state for all.

We cannot continue to violate people's rights and expect no repercussions.

but you can dream on, Lala...

They will have to learn to live without "right of return" and Jerusalem as capital.

Palestinians, regardless of the degree to which they practice their religion or if they are Muslim or Christian, are seeking to achieve statehood. People like you can use a multitude of reasons to imply that Israel should not end its occupation of the West Bank but the only valid ones are those that approximate to reality. The ultra-nationalists and religious extremists want to establish a greater Israel and the Netanyahu government has given them enormous leeway to proceed with their ambition. Meanwhile the Palestinians aspire to have their own homeland on their own land, not because of political Islam as you put it, but simply because they believe they should have their own state. 2-states for 2-people is the just solution for this conflict. Abbas has recognised this, Israel refuses to do so.

It should be noted that your insistence that they renounce right of return and Jerusalem as a capital are to them unreasonable demands.

aLL iSRAELI SETTLERS WANT IS TO ESTABLISH FACTS ON THE GROUND AND THE EUROPEAN AND AMERICAN FOOLS LTET THEM!!

One takes someone else's property -- and then sees them asking for a whole fifth of it back as an 'unreasonable demand.' Sounds like the sort of thinking criminals of the pathological persuasion engage in.

Land acquired in our War of Independence in 1948 was was a defensive war of Palestinian Jews against Palestinian Arabs and 5 Arab states that wanted to drive the Jews into the sea. The borders before 1967 were fixed by the 1949 Armisitce and internationally recognized - except by Palestinians and their talkative defenders like you.

How else can you describe the Abandoned Property law other than illegally acquiring Palestinian territory by force?

Uri Avnery, “No one asked the Arab Palestinians whether to accept or reject anything. If they had been asked, they would probably have rejected partition, since - in their view - it gave a large part of their historical homeland to foreigners”.

internationally recognition by any country. Just one will do. Other than Israel... The Armistice Agreements said this : " the provisions of this Agreement being dictated exclusively by military considerations." "It is emphasised that it is not the purpose of this Agreement to establish, to recognise, to strengthen, or to weaken or nullify, in any way, any territorial, custodial or other rights, claims or interests which may be asserted by either Party in the area of Palestine or any part or locality thereof covered by this Agreement,"

So yeah -- it's been 64 years since Israel violated the borders she herself accepted. And the rest, as they say, is history. At any rate, you've certainly never looked back, have you? I wouldn't advise it -- nasty sight.

As Israel was declaring its legal borders, it was terrorizing people outside its newly-declared borders. To repeat, all of Israel's conflicts have been over land outside its legal borders.

This is unfortunately true, and that's why it will probably be necessary to remove people like you by force.

Israeli crimes are the crimes of Zionism. To blame all Jews for Zionism is like blaming all Germans for Naziism, all Russians for the crimes of the Bolsheviks, all Europeans for the crimes of the various European empires (Spanish, French, British, Dutch, Belgian etc). In short, racist nonsense.

the Germans and the Israelis both elected their government. that goes for adolf and that goes for all the governments elected by the israelis who took and take the land from the palestinains

Keep squawking. It's going to make the visit of your terrorist leaders to the Hague that much more satisfying. And it is going to happen, whether you like it or not. And if AIPAC/Congress says anything, then they should be arrested, tried, and executed for treason to the United States of America.

There are Sunni Muslims, Shi'ite Muslims, Druze, Maronite Christians and various other Christian sect. Plus Palestinian "refugees" who are not allowed to be "Lebanese" citizens. This is the main reason for civil war in "Lebanon".

for you, my dear, the only righteous are your own kind. not humankind

They're adjacent to Israel.

like they did to Israel. They actually earned their land.

Yes it did, on September 11th, 1683, the Muslim Turks were stopped at Vienna...

vove77 - You're talking about the Ottoman Turks, not the Arabs.

Two major wars in history kept Imperial Islam from invading deep into Europe and that's why you'll see the remnants of Islamic architecture in Spain and Turkey.

or isralis and jews as if both were the same, they are not

,.. Europe fell in the Middle Ages at least we have this beautiful remains of arab architecture

and again the Jews lived in Andalusia started another wave of diaspora or endured forced conversion to Christian

which you Europeans love to call the "Apartheid Wall". Well, it's our "Apartheid Wall" that helps keep us safe.

Not even built on Israeli land. With a No-go land also on Palestinian land.

By the way we should also mention the 13 Israelis killed (4 from friendly fire ) Ratio : 1400 : 9.

It's a matter of perspective; if another country killed the number of Jews that Israel has killed of Palestinians, you would undoubtedly term it a massive slighter.

Hamas Interior Minister Fathi Hamad stated that up to 750 Palestinian militants and policemen were killed. 295–720 civilians were killed in the conflict. Difficulties in ascertaining an accurate Palestinian casualty count have been attributed to a number of factors. It was reported that Hamas fighters had been ordered not to wear military uniforms during the fighting. Israeli-Arab journalist Khaled Abu Toameh wrote in The Jerusalem Post that this practice led to the over-counting of civilian casualties and under-counting Hamas military casualties, as Palestinian casualties arrived at hospitals without weapons or any other signs revealing they were fighters

I can agree that the second was a bit of a setback, but the first one was a 100% win for the Palestinians. It was so successful that it allowed the formation of the PA in the first place, and gave the ability for a lot of Palestinian leaders to return home.

It's only been around for over 1300 years now so I'd advise you to go back to school very soon and this time don't doze off so deeply in your history classes.
