Palestinians 'disappointed' by Obama - 10 Oct 08

Barack Obama and John McCain do share the same opinion when it comes to maintaining strong ties with Israel.

During a speech in June, Obama said that Jerusalem should remain the undivided capital of Israel - a comment which caused anger in the Arab world, and Palestinian-Americans in the US.

u do reliaze that only a fraction of attacks by palestine are suicide bombs right. its constantly on the news because the media only catches suicide bomb or vicious attacks of defense to make them look bad. plus israel doesnt defend itself heres how it works. 1st theres a town. israel comes in and blows the crap out of homes and innocent civilaians. then palestine defends itself from the attack. u think israel is SO innocent do you. well there NOT alright remember that.

ok then defend yourself,but dont start complaining whene israel defends itself also. it has to work both ways.when u send homicide bombers into israel to kill people then expect israel to attack back.

[htkilla567]

more of palestine has a right to defend itself. according to international law any country which is held by occupation has rights to defend itself in any manner possible. that means what palestine is doing is legal. however israel has violated so many international laws but the u.s has always backed them up. one is not allowing people to return to their homelands. that is illegal in international law. so is occupation.

if u fight then u have to suffer the consequences. the palestinians start fights always. so when ur people die you run around in the streets like animals. have u seen that? running around carrying caskets in the streets like animals. its sick to see. i dont see anyone else doing that. if u fight u die. plain and simple. any country that gets attacked should be able to defend itself. if a country attacked Jordan,Jordan should be able to attack back., Israel has a right to defend itself

[htkilla567]

ya what would u think if you were stuck like you were on house arrest and not able to move anywhere with your family being killed and Israelis saying it was an "accident". ya i would fight and im pretty sure anyone else would too. we dont start fights. we start fights. for example in aza right now, people are being bombed constantly, cannot get out of the area, and it is so hard for them to get food and money. thats hard and i woud definately fight.

[rhs6520]

you start shit with Israel then you people start crying and acting like animals when they attack back. if you dont attack them ,they wont attack you. if someone hits me first ,i hit back. if u send a homicide bomber into israel expect Israel to attack back worst. i live in the USA. if canada sent people into the USA to kill people what do you think we will do back?? we prob will bomb the shit out of them until they stop.

[htkilla567]

we fight back becuase the israelis occupied our land. did they have permission to get in our land? no! they just declared their state without even listening to the opinion of the palestinians. plus how can we live our own lives if people are there tormenting us and killing us and conquering us huh? exactly if you were in Palestine for just a few seconds, youd see how much israelis are ruining peoples lives.

[rhs6520]

im not a dude,im a girl and you people r dirty. look at u. you people act like animals out in the street. are u people civilized at all?? u know how much better the world would be with no palestinains or if the palestians just lived their own lives without bothering anybody?? they always want to start shit with people. if i started fighting with people im sure people would want to fight me back.
