Inside Story -Olmert rules out Hamas truce-23 Dec 07-Part 2

[shawry86]

really have no real education on this conflict what so ever....

[shawry86]

and muslims who support palestine cus in islamic teachings you are suppose to help your muslims brothers and sisters in need, but yet you then attack zionism....i seriously dont understand your mindset....zionism got hijacked by extremist jewish settlers...the original zionist kibbutz movement was very liberal and more hippy than nazi..i dont think religion and politics go so zionism always did have a floor, and their was already people in palestine...but attacking zionism just proves you

[shawry86]

i wish people would stop saying they support peace but blindly pick sides, you can protest against israel but this doesnt mean you cant accept their right to exist, just as you can support israel but also not forget the palestinian struggle...i wish humans would get a clue and realise life is to short to waste it on fighting....and ive also been to the middle east and have seen many israelis and palestinians get on perfectly fine....yet the news never reports this aspect

[shawry86]

i was against both the war in gaza and the rockets fired into israel, i accept the right for both israel and palestine to exist, i understand the people in power never represent the majority of the people, and i also understand most people just want to get on with their lifes, im aware about the crimes that israel has done, but im also aware of the help some groups in israel have done to try and work for peace, just as im aware of the palestinians who also work for peace...

[shawry86]

as soon as israel was created instead of accepting a 2 state solution the arab world went to war with them...i do not agree with settlements on palestinian land nor do i like the power the religious sect has in israel..but most israelis do not like this either...just as most palestinians do not support everything hamas does but the world media thinks a settler with a russian accent or a palestinian carrying a rocket represents the people who suffer in this conflict

[shawry86]

why do people who have no connection to the place think that picking sides does anything good for the innocent people...if you truely cared about palestinians you would try and support peace and not just protest when israel does something, you would also protest about the racism in the arab world towards palestinians in places like egypt, jordan and saudi to name a few places...we all know the arab world uses the palestinian struggle as a means to justify their hate to the jewish state

[TWOROBIE]

Apart from a very small minority there have been very few Jews living in Palestine since the Romans kicked them out 1500 years ago. Most debate on this site is from murdering Zionist, NOT by orthodox jews who condem zionism without question

You aren't fooling anybody, that is a mutation of the NAZI SYMBOL. You Israelis have no religion, you are european rejects that helped Hitler build the concentration camps, since you would kill your own children for greed. Israel is an abomination on humanity.

[MommieDearest67]

The Palestians are no good! They are shit people, stupid and don't do any good. Just breed more shit people.

[Jehovahwarrior]

What diguse me is to see the doom of the rock on the area of the Haram ash Sherif. I understand how a cause can cause you to become so enrage you also feel like you have to do somethin. So muslims blow themselves up. which is ok to them & mohammad. but Jesus said to Love. mohammad said to behead & torture & kidnap & kill tratiors of islam. Jesus followed His purpose down perfectly. islam is mohammads mastermind in order to fulfill his own lust for greed, power & self-gratification.

Have you ever read the Qu-ran? It doesn't seem like you speak Hebrew or English. Using biblical propaganda to explain your modern political ends makes no sense. No sons of Abraham deserve any land or peace if they insist on using ancient myths to justify mass killing. Forget about Islam and Judaism, and perhaps intelligent discussion can occur. Maybe I have it wrong, but the analogy I use to portray the conflict is the David and Goliath myth. In this analogy, David is no Jew.

[Jehovahwarrior]

David is a Jew idiot.

[Jehovahwarrior]

The Holy Land of Israel was given to the descendents of Abraham, Isaac & Jacob(Israel).

Which we know to be the Jews & the Lost Tribes of Israel. I can give you as many Biblical versus as you need. because of their disobience the were Diaspora & only a remnant remained. more vrs. after punishment(ending) Now the restoration of the Chosen People & Nation w/ Jerusalem as capital as was since the 10th century BC. The Bible is alive prophesies are still being fulfilled.

Jesus is Lord.

[Jehovahwarrior]

This is it. The were given the Holy Land (ALL) & (some) to Abraham, Isaac to Jacob later named Israel from which linkage came to be known as Jews derived from Judah son of Israel. Nation of Israel was established when the land was conquered by the Israelis in the late 10th century BC. In the early 10th cent. BC King David conquered the ancient city of Jerusalem from the Jebusites. From that point on Jews have keep a continouos presence. thats 3000 plus yrs. Long before islam.

[Jehovahwarrior]

Olmert is a spineless leader. There is no way he should be makin concessions on givin up any land of Israel, a coward for not takin back all land that belong to the Jews. & for mentionin the division of Jerusalem. They need to wake up now. He is makin grave, also insane policies. This is the same coward that let hezbollah challenge the IDF. He must go, borders should be closed & Jews should claim the Holy Land the official Jewish Homeland. Now!!!

[hifiveoverthere]

why cant you respond using politics? why just use racial slurs? do you realise how much it weakens your argument and your people when you resort to petty name-calling?

[kam3Oen]

Keep praying monkey. We'll keep developing awesome new technologies.

[dvdks871]

When we agree to give them our land for the sake of peace, the first thing they do is to desecrate holy graves and sites. We, on the other hand, had this opportunity to desecrate their mosque but have some respect, although it was built directly on the site of our holy temple.

[dvdks871]

Occupation occupation occupation that's all they know and that gives them the right to do anything and every thing

When the truth is it's our land way before Mohammed was invented, and the Jews had been living there since. Check out the grave yards- the tombstones of our rabbis are dated back to hundreds of generations, these rabbis have been living here throughout all the ages.

[hifiveoverthere]

the hamas fellow's argument was based solely on the basis that the kassams raining on sderot every week are 'non-lethal'. as if they are being sent with roses attached for romantic purposes, and any deaths are incidental.

Its a shitty situation, but it comes down to the Israeli's targeting miliants to defend themselves, and the palestinian terrorists chucking rockets at schools to kill as many people, civilians or otherwise, as possible

[crazycatfguy]

Collective punishment is illegal even under a legal occupation.

Excellent episode. Thank you Al Jazeera from the USA.
