Ned, I agree that:
"3) Israel's only solution to Hamas's attacks is to withdraw from Gaza?"
And also the West Bank and the Golan Heights, and to work to meet the legitimate demands and concerns of the Palestinians, let the Arabs who were forced back of Israel come back in, and things of that nature.
After this, if there is still terrorism, Israel has the right to defend itself. It does not have the right to occupy other people's land or to kill or detain innocents.
Of course, the simple solution is to go back 60 years and make sure Israel was never created. Since time travel is impossible, though...

quote: So, Saint Marcus, you propose no solution to the mortar attack other than an Israel withdrawal from Gaza. |
A. Withdrawal would be preferable
B. If they don't withdraw, don't use overkill to kill terrorists (kill one terrorist, kill 12 civilians in the proces, wound 100+ others)
quote: When the Serbs in Bosnia or the KLA in Kosovo attack UN forces, I assume your solution is the same, withdraw. |
Hmm...the UN did withdraw from Srebrenica, did they not?
Anyway, it is a false comparison. the UN's presence in Bosnia was legal. Israel's occupation of the Gaza strip is not (check all the UN resolutions on the matter).
Ditto what in Afghanistan?
Also, the UN approved I believe.
quote: And, I assume, when the first Nazi shot at allied forces after WWII, we should have withdrawn from Germany. |
After WW2? I don't quite follow you.
quote: David, What are you agreeing with
1) Hamas has the right to kill Jews?
2) Hamas has the right to hide in civilian areas?
or
3) Israel's only solution to Hamas's attacks is to withdraw from Gaza?
What do you agree with? |
He said he agrees with me 
1. no
2. right? no. but it's a reality, and those people shouldn't have to suffer for a handful of extremists hiding there.
3. it's preferable. but if not, any israeli incursion should be proportional and ethically just. killing a dozen, and wounding a 100, including children, isn't proportional, and certainly not ethically just.

This is actually an effective weapon against overpopulation, if it wasn't for the whining....

Well, SM and David, I think even the Israeli's would love to withdraw from the occupied territories in the context of peace agreement that included a guarantee against further terrorism. However, they actually did this, in connection with the multi-step Oslo accords. Their withdrawal was conditioned on an end to terrorism.
But it did not end, did it? It only got worse.
Even under your own logic and pre-conditions, Israel has a right to defend itself because it did withdraw and did turn security over to Arafat.
On the bit about WWII, clearly the four powers were a hostile occupying force in Germany after WWII. The question I had for you is whether the only solution to terrorist attacks on these occupying forces was their withdrawal from Germany?
If you respond once again that the four powers were a legitimate occupying force because Hitler was the aggressor, well then, under this same logic, Israel is a legitimate occupying force because the Arabs were the aggressors in '48 and in '67.

When we see a suicide bomber, where is the 500 post thread condeming it?
Do I see you and so many of the same familiar names who love to bash Jews say a SINGLE word against it, out side of some sort of "they deserved it/stole the land" kind of post?
Marky Mark is the perfect example, he knows I have spoken out continually for a homeland and peace for Palestine, but here it doesn't suit his "dirty murdering jews" theme, so he calls me a bigot, a silly troll from a silly man.
Before long you will see the SAME Europeans (and a few Americans) post the same clap trap that basically says the Jews got what's comming to them.
The SAME F*CKING LINE THE NAZIS USED.
In fact, one swine here likes to call the Jews Nazis, and says they "play for sympathy" based on SIX MILLION OF THEM BEING EXTERMINATED BY PEOPLE OF HIS ILK.
But who cares, they are just Jews, not real humans, right?

You might want to add this Jaako, since I'm in no mood to mince words, your analogy is assinine, Soviet Partisans didn't fire from crowds, nor blow up German civilians as suicide bombers, nor burst into German towns and execute German children, the target for them was the Heer, never the civilian population.
Hammas is no Freedom fighter organization, all you do is prove my point, you support terror, under the guize of "freedom figther" in your half-assed example, and it disgusts me.
