Isnt it in time for Palestinian people to change their way of thinking?

No matter what the question, killing is not the answer. MLK said peace is not a goal but a way to live.

Yes, it's true, and let me tell you something else that may surprise you: they are not more beloved now.\nThe only reason that Arab and Muslim countries help the Palestinians with their wish to have Israel is that they don't want to have them as immigrants.\nIn fact, I've been told by an Egyptian guy once that they enjoy the Israeli- Palestinian conflict because they cannot decide whom they hate more. After one of the sides win, he said to me, the Arab world will finish the other side.\nMaybe he was just radical, but his words are still shocking me.

It may not cause big changes in a short amount of time...but you never know when, where, or how you may influence another rational mind, and thereby ignite change.\nI'm thankful to Yahoo for giving us the means to express our opinions here.

No they are not. The Palestinians are just a band of displaced Arabs of different tribes having a go at Israel. If they left Israel alone there would be no trouble. The Palestinians are egged on by Syria. The British and Americans should support Israel and not a stupid bunch of Arabs that deserve all they get! The trouble is that the lefties and poofters and dregs of our own society support Palestinians to take the heat off themselves.

This is what they usually do.They could not care less if it's civilians or militants they kill as long as they are Palestinians.\nAnyway they said it was a "mistake" but they seem to do many "mistakes" like this one.

Your question really has no answer, if it did, everyone would be implementing those ideas all around the world.  You can't change others or countries, only yourself.  Study hard, work hard, take risks and keep an open mind to new views and ways of doing things...that's all anyone can do.

First I'm inclined to think it was a mistake, but the purpose for the withdraw or giving of land to the Palestinian people was to try and work towards a peace.  Israel was to give up this strip of land and remove its settlers from it, and the Palestinians we're to reign in the terrorist who constantly bomb the Israelis.  We'll see if it works. I don't think it will.

No. People just cant come to our country and change it to better them. Its been this way and we should not change b/c of them. Its a free country so you have a choose not to say it.

It has not changed my view at all it has only reinforced my belief that thier religious leaders manipulate thier followers in order to gain more power over them by feeding the ignorant followers more BS. It took them 4 months to organize a protest.Suppressing free speech is an atrocity. Burning an embassy of a country because the nation it represents has a free press is a ludicrous, double atrocity. But the apologists for the Arab/Muslim world — those who worry about “cultural sensitivities” above all else — are surely gearing up to excuse the “outrage” expressed because of newspaper cartoons. There has been no similar fury over Iraq’s Muslim terrorists killing approximately 30,000 other Muslims. And yet, we have seething masses because of a cartoon

no, i'm hopeful, but it seems so unlikely...and not either side is 100% innocent...but seems that israel is intentionally setting goals and demands for the palestinians to meet in order for hopes of peace that they know they can't do, or make it impossible for them to achieve.  ruining their land, burning farms, bulldozing, shooting people in the streets is not way to allow that area to stabilize and police itself.  several years ago israel kept saying, like they are now, that they need to get police out and stop the militants, but with the occupation, they would shoot at anybody even the police, making it impossible to their job..so its very much like palestine gets set up to fail, add to that all the frustration and hate coming from the palestinians and its a candle and powder keg.

Certainly, but it will be a bit late then to be changing minds.

Everyone is the West is doing all they can to build a second Arab state in Palestine, for the still stateless Palestine Arabs.\n\nIts the Arabs who hate the idea. Because it would mean they would have to give up on their main goal -- destroying Israel.

HAMAS has radical origin and if US isolate them they only get stronger and convince their supporters on radical  attitudes. because they won't have other options. if that would happen, they started to give the messages that  we are alone and have to solve our problems  with only  aggressing.this won't to help peace settlements in middle  east...but if care it?

Yes,they will some day...And let's hope that they are going to wake up before it's not too late...\nI think that after the war in Lebanon people have started to realize that Israel is not exactly the victim there...and have started to see Israel's real face...\nBut unfortunately as long as Israel has US full support there is not much we can do about it...

I think that the way people live is a greater persuader than what they say. As long as non Muslims see fanatical people rioting in the streets as in Paris a few months ago,\nor over the cartoons a few weeks ago, it will be difficult to expect people to be open minded enough to listen to what you have to say. I mean come on, Iran's president denied the holocaust and Israel's right to even exist. I don't recall seeing them rioting in the streets!

Ok, If you want to learn then let me start with a brief history. Palestine was occupied by the Zionists in consequent steps after the Balfour declaration in 1917. Since then the Palestinians (Muslims, Christians and Jews) have been in struggle to free their land from what was then called "Israel", yet they were always willing to accept any reasonable solution to the crisis as long as it takes into consideration their basic rights including the rights of 7 million Palestinian refugees to return to their homes in the so called "Israel", a right that is stated and ensured by the UN and international law. However, the Zionists want the whole Holy Land "Palestine" for them alone, and that's why they kept attacking Palestinians and committing massacres in them even after the 1948 war. In 1967 Israel took over the rest of Palestine (West Bank and Gaza Strip) in addition to the Sinai desert from Egypt, the Golan heights from Syria, South of Lebanon and west of Jordan.\n\nThe Palestinian resistance never stopped and will never stop until the land is freed. Unfortunately the global media is mainly owned or run by Zionists who succeeded so far in hiding the truth of what is going on in Palestine from the rest of the world.\n\nWhatever the Palestinians do it should be understood as a resistance and fight for their just cause. How would you react to someone who would kick you out of your house and occupy it by force?! It is more of less the same thing.\n\nAlthough for Palestinians any Zionist living in their land is part of the brutal occupation, they the resistance groups (led by Hamas) agreed 18 months ago not to attack Israeli civilians (this does not include Settlers living in illegal settlements in the West Bank or Gaza Strip), an agreement which Hamas respected disregarding the thousands of violations of that agreement from Israel through the past 18 months. It wasn't until 2 weeks ago when Al-Qassam Brigades decided to stop the cease-fire after the Israeli army killed a whole family while they were enjoying their time on the beach of Gaza (I won't be surprised if you told me you haven't heard abou this massacre at all).\n\nAl-Qassam, along with other brigades, attacked a military point on the border of Gaza and captured an Israeli soldier from the site. Such an attacked is very justified considering the daily attacks of Israeli on Palestinian cities by tanks and air fighters, killing and injuring hundreds every month, if you are in the United States or in Europre then most likely you won't receive any news about these attacks as it the media duty their not to disturb your peace with such bloody news! If you don't believe me on this you can conduct your own research on who owns and runs the American media (including Fox news) and their political and ideological interests.\n\nIt is war, and inter-attacks on military forces from either sides should not be interfered by International law, specially when the one taking action this time are the people of the right, the Palestinians.\n\nThe Palestinian resistance groups captured an Israeli soldier, and what they asked for before they release him was to release around 500 women and children prisoners from the Israeli prisons. Is this too much to ask for? And has anyone asked themselves how did those go into prison at the first instance?! Israel justifies it by saying that even the children are terrorists!!! (And by the way, according to the Israeli law, a Palestinian is considered adult from age 16, so when we talk about children here we actually talk about les than 16)\n\nIn addition to those there are more than 12,000 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli Jails, some of them have been there for 30+ years many have been charged with hundreds-of-years sentences, just ridiculous!\n\nPalestinians would love to live in peace and take their kids to school and go to universities, but what would you say if you know that in average Palestinian stude
