samudra,

Most of the nonMuslim world looks at Israel as the second largest terrorist state behind the US. You should really grab a newspaper and read it sometime. I hope someday you become civilized and understand that killing babies doesn't make you a hero, quite the contrary. There's a reason who so many in the world compare Israeli military tactics with German tactics during WWII. Read up on the Warsaw ghetto and compare it to Gaza. The truth hurts, doesn't it??

"This professor calls this a "war". It's not a war. How could one call this a "war" with one side armed to the teeth, and the other armed with rocks? This is a bloodbath, not a war. This is state-sponsored genocide, ethnic cleansing. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. The spin on this entire ordeal is disgusting."

100% agree

Why to people act like Gazans are armed with ROCKS?? Rocks weren't what hit a school bus a couple months ago, rocks aren't what killed civilians in their car while driving on a road near Gaza, rocks aren't what destroyed homes near Beersheva, give me a break. Hamas, and Islamic Jihad are ARMED, not with rocks but with guns, and missles, at the end of the day, I'm against what the war on Gaza but I don't pretend that Palestinians are only throwing stones.

Professor of Political Geography? He reminds me of a football hooligan. I was waiting for him to shout "WANT SOME?! AYE!". I doubt the man could even spell "political geography".

who IS this British bullshitter? Spouting the official IDF propoganda.

[MichaelRMcCoy]

shaliAnn - You actually try to ignore that two separate poorly manufactured justifications for attacking Iran have been thwarted by rogue elements in US intelligence and the Pentagon?

Your credibility is taking a beating, Einstein.

[MichaelRMcCoy]

shaliAnn - The US Senate is Israeli occupied territory, any attempt to deny it is to engage in remarkable banality.

Denying US jingoism? If you require the term hegemony to be defined, aren't you in a bit over your head?

You actually claim that two separate manufactured justifications for attacking Iran have been thwarted by rogue elements in US intelligence and the Pentagon? Do you spend much of your time in a cave? Or is your source for information limited to government approved outlets?

[MichaelRMcCoy]

shaliAnn - What a shame such education has utterly failed to hone a mind capable of critical reasoning - and you continue to validate your premise through abject ignorance of the facts.

Facts that aren't terribly illusive to the sensible, objective mind.

A stark reminder, that those that proclaim their own brilliance, seldom are.

[shaliAnn]

'MichaelRMcCoy'.... A terrorist nation would have a policy of deliberate attacks on civilians, with intent to cause fear and death. As regards the balance of your overwrought comment, I refer you to my previous reply. P.S: I have a doctorate in physics. I'm afraid you begin to bore me, therefore I recommend you find someone of your academic level to joust with.

[shaliAnn]

'MichaelRMcCoy'... "would it be prudent to support your point ?" What nonsense. It is Your aim to indict U.S. foreign policy and military expenditure. It is you who is obliged to present salient facts in a coherent argument ,with proper context, in support of your claims. Jingoism: a warlike foreign policy. U.S. hegemony: clearly pejorative usage you neglect to define. Attempts to justify an attack on Iran. Your comment amounts to little more than accusations and anti-U.S. rhetoric.

[MichaelRMcCoy]

shaliAnn - to validate the critical aspect of your central assertion - that Israel is not a terrorist nation - you must find a way to dismiss/deny the core legal reality, that the remaining Palestinian lands (that have not yet been stolen) are under active and ongoing military occupation by the State of Israel.

Does it occur to you that this is the sine qua non in any discussion of who is, and who is not a terrorist?

Let us assess your credibility, shall we?
