Try to convince the usa gov who r supporting all this brutal israeli actions,and the israelies will stop,\nwhy should the israelies destroy a whole town to free one  soldier!!!\nthey can negotiate over him in a peacfull way,\nor\nthey sure can send a special force unit to search for him and save him if they know where he is, instead of all that,\nand if they dont know where he is,so how they think they will save him by mass invasion to gaza,and by destroying the infrastracture of a city with a very hight population,not carring how many they kill and harm in the way?they propably will get him killed that way\nand in the same time all the innocent civ,including KIDS,will be badly harmed by the electricity & water cut.\nWhy r u punishing the palestinians for electing their gov in a democratic way,is it cause u dont like their DEMOCRATIC choice,u make them suffer this way?\nusa could stop all that with one phone call from the white house,and try to stop a new human massacres,but i think that the american gov ,agree and bless whats hapening.\n\nsend e-mails to usa gov and ask them to stop & not support whats happening there,thats what any good average american can do.

Actually it would be better to give these billions of dollars to Palistine than to give it to the demented terrorist warmongoring state of Israel.\n\n  BUT ! Its because the entire Bush administration is JEW!   They have infiltrated our government  with duel citezen ship and their oath is to Israel not the government they serve. Not to mention their intelligence  ( mossad) + ( by deception we shall do war )  is more than likely black mailing most of our elected officials and the ranson is billions to the biggest wellfare burden on the American tax payer. This tiny terrorist state is about the size of Road Island  and reacieves billions per year plus muti-millions in military aid , not to mention that Americans have finaced their wall completely to keep palistaine out and Israel is still begging for more money. We have financed their genocide of the Palistinian peoples and the leach Israel keeps asking for more. They are nothing more than a filthy burden on the American people. They are the greatest racist in the entire world!\n\n Click on the link below and you will find the entire Bush cabal is run by crimminal Israel.They make your laws, educate your children with untrue history and they rob you of your heritage by banning it from your childs education. Most of these leaches are members in our government but have duel citizenship with Israel and all laws they make and everything they do bennifits Israel not America. \n\n It is they who caused America to get involved with Irag and soon Iran by making the laws that demand we fight Israels battles because they are cowards. They will fight the enimies of Israel if it takes every last Amreican!  By deception they will do war is their motto. Since they are such great deceavers they don't belong in our government. I thought is was illegal to have an official in our government who has duel citizneship? Time to vote these wellfare leachs who syphone the American economy out of office! This next election , every American should not vote for anyone who is Jewish or pro jewish..... vote them out once and for all and lets get our country back out of the hands of the terrorist!\n\n   Spread the word! Send this link to as many people as possible and warn America. Start an email alert wereas you friend sends it to ten people and they send it to ten people or more. Have this entered in as many links as possible, most will do it for they are angry with Israel. Lets put an end to forein countries running ours. Get them all out of our offices and out of our courts which they also control!Most judges in America are jewish and always vote in favor of the jew in accordance to their Talmud. they will never serve you rigthous  no matter how much evidence you have to the contrary because it is against their laws to faught a Jew over a gentile, therfore you will always loose to their crimminal efforts.\n\n  Don't believe the TRIPE that Israel is GODS chosen land. There is no mention of a chosen land for Jews in any true biblical writings, nor does GOD or his word call Jews Israel or Israel JEWS. This is the mindset of demented people who believe the Jewish lies despite what GOD has warned the world about not believing anything that comes out of the mouth of a Jew, in Titus 1: 13-14. We Chrsitians are to NEVER believe the Jew and it is time we became as strong in our religion and follow GODS laws and throw the Jews out of Christianity once and for all!\n\n The Jews NEVER invited the Palistinians to stay, that is a lie from the pits of hell! That is why they have built the wall to keep the Palistinians out so that no-one but Jews can live in that state. Oh sure thay have a few Arabs in that state but that is so when they tell you that Israeli citizens have been attacked by bombs in one of their black flag operations and they tell you it is an Israeli citizen that was killed they are in effect telling the truth. But really it is an Arab or many more whom have been killed because Jewish blood is n

Israel is definitely a flash point in the mideast and a big reason why there is such a reift between the US and most of the Muslim world.   I have no clue why we continue to support them to the extent that we do ---- likley due all the political contributions in the US ---- We let Israel have a secret nuclear weapons cache, but we threaten Iran for the same thing - no wonder we are viewed the way we are.   I am not saying give the land back. but clearly the borders need to be reset and a lot more settlements taken down --- The US policy on Israel has not worked in the US's favor in over 4 decades ---- It really needs to change

Kinda hypocritical, isn't it? I mean look at palastine right now. we push and push for a democratic election...we get one, a clean one...and HAMAS is elected!! HA! So NOW what do we do???? Stand for democracy?? \n\nIt is a tangled, complex world out there...and it is hard to stand up and say ALWAYS and NEVER.

So many times Israel got away with murder because US has vetoed every single sanctions against it...So it is because of the support of US and the silence of UN...This is their idea of justice...\nWhile Israel's crimes are called "self defense",the Palestinians fighting for liberty will be called "terrorists"...because they don't have the full support of the most powerful country in the world:USA... \nOf course.if Israel can't blame this one on Hamas(although I am sure they will find some reason to,'cos they always do),it will be called just a "mistake"...No one will ever accuse Israel of deliberately killing civilians.even if they do... \nWe saw what the reaction at the Israelis deaths are:they have to transform all into an international tragedy...Everyone must know that they still "suffer"...while 18 Palestinians who were sleeping in their beds are murdered it's not so important...'cos they were kille in "self defense",'cos Israel has the right to "defend" itself against unarmed civilians...

Before Bush took over the Israeli/Palestinian Peace process was going nowhere.  In 1998,After The Oslo Accords in which Israel gave up 98% of what the PLO and other Palestinian groups wanted. Yasir Arafat, After having won the Nobel Peace Prize. Rejected all that Israel had done, and restarted the INTIFADA.\nTrying to force more concessions from the Israeli government, Hamas set off a series of Homicide Bombings, and in response, Israel moved troops into the West Bank and laid siege to the Palestinian Authority Headquarters.  The US, under the leadership of G.W. Bush,  started the Process all over again with the Roadmap for Peace. We didn't disengage.  We moved forward.  The Palestinians Decided that they wanted to continue the war, they lack the will for Peace.  As apparent during the latest escalations by Hezbollah and Hamas.\n\nEDIT: Oh and the other 2%?  Why that was the death of every last Jew Desecrating the land of Israel.

The USA DOES NOT support TERRORIST ORGANIZATIONS.. Hamas has ACCEPTED RESPONSIBILITY for HUNDREDS of TERRORIST ATTACKS during the Palestinian/Israeli conflict. \n\nIf the USA would continue their financial support of the Palestinian Government (lead by Hamas). They would be no better than Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Cuba, North Korea, and Sudan when it comes to financially backing terroristic efforts.

Because it is a democratic state with Western values in the middle of the Middle East.  Israel is the only democratic country that grants equal civil liberties to women and religious and ethnic minorities.  And it's filled with Jews! Yuck!  The fact is that more Israeli Arabs think that Israel is better than other countries compared to Israeli Jews! (See http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1137605866664&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull)\nBut it's not even the Jewish thing, as much as the fact that Israel, and the US, symbolize the West and corrupt values to fundamentalist Muslims.

I like Israel, personally. I can't say I agree with EVERYTHING Israel has done since 1948, but I do believe they only want security for themselves. This is understandable since they are surrounded by enemies who want them wiped off the face of the Earth. Keep up the fight. America still loves you. Shalom.

Haven't you heard the rhetoric? It is because Israel is the only democracy in the middle-east!!!And Britain cant say much either because the British government sold Israel all the necessary means to start their nuclear program. Double standards as always.

It all started when the USA decided to take part of Palestine and give it to the Jews. Yes I agree that the Palestine people should get over it now, but have to understand their aggression. \n\nJust think if (let just say) Germany decided to take your state (because I don't know where your from) and give it to the Muslims. You would be pretty upset also. \n\nSo I think your question should be "Why is that Palestine is so angry with the USA?" It's because we basically told the people that used to live in (Israel) that they had to pack up all their things and leave from their home land and move.

I see that some of the people answered saying that hamas is a terrorist organization,therefore should not be supported. Well the same could be said of Israel. I wish that my tax dollars did not fund Israels terrorism. The U.S. gives Israel 3 billion a year and what do we get in return? A middle east that is constantly on the verge of ww 3, an atmosphere that clearly only benefits the oil markets with the constant instability of the region.

It was the Palestinians who refused to negotiate with the Israelis over land, and not the other way around.  There is plenty of land for both, and the real fight has never been about sharing the land.\n\nThe Palestinians want the Jews dead.  They use the land to rally support.  \n\nI would personally not trust information from an organization called either deir yassin or jews against zionism.  Pure propaganda.\n\nIrael is our US ally.  And before we make them give up any more land, maybe we should show them by example.  Let's all give up our homes, businesses and existences and move to Europe.  \n\nIsrael's claim to Israel is more legal that our claim to the US.

One must really lack basic compassion to call children, women and civilians, who have been under brutal occupation for 40 years thugs..\n\n..in regards to the question, it's not that they don't Want peace, they don't want FAIR peace. the roadmap was a way of achieving peace, as was Camp David as were Oslo talks.. however, what they entailed for ISrael, is total economic, military , socal Domination. For Palestinians, not a state, rather series of buntustan-like regions where they are allowed to exist. \n\nwhat is fair peace, well for starters, listen to international community. Many resolutions for fair peace has been proposed by the UN, 242 for example, which always receives the same vote: all the world for it- US and Israel against.\n\n*EDIT*\n\neven if you go with what the person above said, which for the most part, isn't really relevant, but lets go with it. and accept his argument..that Israel is righ towner of 'the promised land' as God said so..therefore his conclusion is, we can treat Palestinians as inhumenly as we like, kick them out of their homes and keep them in camps surrounded by a wall (sounds like ghettos to anyone?) just because they don't belong on this Holy land of ours. \n\nwell is this not the reason why Jews were persecuited and murdered all over Europe and in Holocaust in Germany..all because they did not belong there..\n\ntoday we Rightly condemn what has been done to Jews, how can we then not condemn when they are doing exctly the same things to Palestine today ..under the pretext of 'defense' or more recently ' War on Terror'.

The stated cause of the invasion of Iraq was because it didn't obey the united nations, why should israel not have to. Oh, I forgot, Israel and the united states are allies and consequently can do whatever it likes to whoever it likes.

The Palestinian people have their own government and land.  And it is the Palistinians who carry out unprovoked attacks against the Israelis.  The Israelis are simply retaliating against the Palistinians and their terrorist Hamas government.
