Absolutely accurate assessment. Target innocent civilians and any any sympathy I might have for your situation is gone like a fart in a windstorm. Target citizens and your citizenry is gonna be, should be, targeted. Hamas and the Russians target citizens Ukrain and Israel...target their citizens. Nobody complained when the Germans and Japanese had their citizens targeted.

There's not a chief of naval operations to help Israel due to Tommy Tuberville's protest

This issue will never be resolved until Israel and the Palestinians decide how to live together. Right now they have chosen to die together.

Some of us hold that Israeli Jews have chosen not to die at all. And since they're Jews, most Christians do not go along with Israeli Jews having a right to exist.

By the end of WWII European Christians, had had it with Jews. They had had it before WWII but the war did it for them. European Christians decided the easiest way to get rid of the problem was to cooperate with Zionists and establish a homeland on the dirt that most Jews saw as their historic homeland. Israel was arranged by European Christians.

Could the homeland have been set up anywhere else? Of course it could. Why not give the Jews a homeland in a corner of Germany. Give them 25% of Germany. Seems like ultimate justice to me.

But I am not surprised that European Christians decided to go ahead an plop down what was left of European Jews right in the middle of the only people on earth who hate Jews more than European Christians. Let somebody else do their genocide for them.

What they didn't plan on was Israelis being willing and able to defend themselves more effectively than most of Christian Europe had been able to under the onslaught of Nazi Germany.

The most ardent supporters of Israel are white evangelical Christians. Israel is supported both emotionally and financially.

Survivors of Auschwitz reporting Polish christians giving the soon to be dead Jews the slashed throat salute as the train rolled through the Polish countryside.

Don't be an asshole whell, everybody hates the Jews. The christian world looked the other way for 10 years while European Jews were being slaughtered by the millions by German nazis. What is bullshit is the phony shock from the christian world when the news and the newreels of the liberated death camps were released in early 1945.

Fucking Germans who threw up the nazi salute and who lived within smelling distance of Belsen Bergen and Dachau feigning shock, shedding bullshit tears, when they were forced to go to the camps and toss the rotting Jew bodies from mounds of them into mass graves in the newsreels.

I can tolerate all kinds of crap out of you, whell...but don't be an asshole about the holocaust.

Israelis and Palestinians live together just fine. My niece was on a three week archeological dig up near Haifa a few years ago. Almost every day at the end of the work day the team had dinner at a Palestinian cafe on the way back to their hotel. The place was packed every day with Jews, Muslims, and tourists. The food was great, and everybody got along just fine. One other thing...the archaeological team was made up of Jews and Palestinians, mostly college students in Israel.

Jews and Muslims get along fine. Many are from the same goddamn gene pool. It's terrorists who want Jews, all Jews worldwide, dead...who Israelis have no interest in living together with.


This is a war against Hamas, not against Gazan Palestinians. Palestinians who are dying because Hamas wants them dead. Dead Palestinians are propaganda that Hamas thrives on. Why do they put their rocked and mortar installations in neighborhoods, next to schools, in hospital parking lots? It's not to deter Israeli air strikes...Hamas knows it won't deter Israeli air strikes...it's to generate as many dead Palistinians as possible. Dead Palestinians is Hamas' goal.
