Oh right. So when the Palestinian terrorists use innocent Palestinian civilians to hide behind it is evil, because Hamas and Hezbollah say they are on their side. But when the Israeli's hide behind innocent Palestinian civilians it's fine because they are the enemy! Even though they are not terrorists and therefore not the enemy, but they are 'cos they look like them and stuff and...... My brain hurts:S


I didn't say it was ok. As a matter of fact Israel did not say it was ok. Did you not read the article. What I said was its not the same thing and its not.

To go a bit further I do think its not as bad.

What they say and what they do are two different things.
Of course you don't see it 'as bad' because you view Arabs and Muslims as Untermenschen. Nice to have you out of the closet.

Oh so cowardly shit like this (See picture) is aceptable. I ask again where are your pictures of Hamaz and Hizbollah hiding behind human shields?
Face it your views are based on uninformed racism against Arabs and Muslims who you simply view as sub human.



Come on, in the first picture it looks as though they're arresting/detaining somebody - not hiding behind him. Surely you can see that. It's better than a simple execution, wouldn't you agree? The second picture, well, without context it looks pretty foul.

View the previous links and you will see that the first picture is actually of a Palastinian being used as a human shield.

Actually I did recently see plattoon of Islamic women from one of those two group with with rocket launchers and machine guns, saying that they too were ready to fight. Then it was explained that they were more for a show of moral support but either way its no secret that human shields are common in the Islamic world.

Actually I have nothing against Christian, Agnostic or Aethiest arabs. On the contrary I have quite a few good freinds like that. Three of them I can think of that I work with are from Lebanon and a couple from Syria. I feel sorry for them because I know many of them have family that could be blown up as we speak. But just as well I feel sorry for freinds in Tel Aviv. And more importantly, I understand who started it and on whose territory it started.

It came from this article http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4314898.stm and it doesn't actually say that the person in the photo is being used as a human shield. It's likely what the press calls stock footage or a stock photo. Now, that said, I won't deny that the Israeli's have never done that - the article makes it quite clear that they have.

Hold on let me blink. No you really wroth that.

So the option given to the Palestinian people by Israel is get executed or act as a humane shield for Israeli Soldiers?

They'd gun them all down.

Case #2 - The Israelis drop leaflets telling women and children to evacuate a city. They then see cars streaming out of the city with white flags flying from their antennas. Do you think they would bomb the escapees?

Answer - yes, they have. They are targeting fleeing civilians even WITHOUT military forces marching behind them.

Defend Israel all you want. They are behaving abominably as well.

It's Every bit as bad. Using civilians as a human shield is surely an absolute.

to go a bit further, I'd say it was WORSE. Firstly because while Hamas & Hezb'Allah may use folk as willing human shields, the Israelis kidnap civilians arbitrarily for the same purpose. Secondly, It utterly destroys Israel's claims to any moral right in this conflict.

The use of hostages as human shields places Israel right there with Saddam Hussein and Nazi Germany. A significant degree worse than any terrorist organisation which has the support (or at least co-operation) of the people in which it operates.

Have you never read any of my posts before? Actually I will go one step further and say its not fair to blame all Muslims, because most of them were born into this faith as opposed to having chosen it. Women who don't follow it are more likely to receive and "honor killing" than anything else. As a true Muslim, I suspect you don't need me to explain the "honor killings".
Now to finally state my opinion, I blame Islam. I think its a psychotic religion/cult that will always come back to violence and I believe that until it is irradicated there will be wars over religion. Now so that you know in advance, I will not spend the rest of my day responding to posts of people trying to dig back 1000 years something they can blame Christians for. And just as well I will not respond to somebody mentioning something horrific that was done by somebody who was just randomly raised is another faith. I am obviously addressing opinions voiced by clerics who speak for a religion, kind of like the Mosque from Jersey City, NJ that funded the 1993 world trade center bombing or the prime minister of Iran calling for the destruction of Israel or the Iatola calling for the execution of Salmon Rushbee because he was offended by his book or the violence in Denmark over the cartoons, I mean the list just goes on and on. I just don't have enough time to play this game again.

He doesn't belive that Muslim life has the same value as Jewish or Christian life thats why he doesn't think its as bad. He views Muslims as Untermenschen just as the Israeli govenrment and soldiers do.

I understand your point. However, this is my take on it. Somebody recently failed trying trying to break into my truck but broke my door handle. Now, I wish I could beat the ever-living shit out of this guy. So I am by no means a fan of his activity. However, I do think less of a thief who is willing to steal from his own mother, family or freinds. And I don't believe that all of these women used as human shields do so voluntarily. I have heard of reports where they were otherwised threatened with "honor killings" instead.

Hitler did what he did in the firm belife that he was a Christian and was caring out Gods will. I could go onto name dozens of others but I hope you get the point. People of every religion have used God to justify the most terrible of acts. No doubt you'll find some reference from the Koran to 'prove' what a blood thirsty bunch the Muslims are, and I could pull out dozens of references from the Bible to counter the point. Islam isn't the problem any more than Christianity or Judaism is. The problem is a Socio economic, political one which varies regionally. With Israel there is alot of issues on both sides. To blame it all on Islam is ridculous and lazy at best.

Your attitude explains why you have such a close minded view. You state what you believe but when facts (that you obviously know exist) are brought to your attention you choose not to see them.


At least your honest, and now we know you are not searching for answers or another point of view your goal is to spread hate.

I would quickly state that the facts dispute what you say. However to be completely honest there is one specific instance that does have me baffled about that arguement. UAE. I don't really underststand how a place 96% Muslim can be so pleasant and not troublesome. Some would be quick to say its because they are all rich, but if that was the case then Saudi Arabia would not be such a breeding ground for terrorists. I would say that UAE is hope for that faith but I am actually thinking there must be something different about their faith. Maybe they are really agnostic and just claim to be Muslim, or are all Shieit or Sunni. I am not sure. But something is different.

Excellent example, Trent.

WorldNet Daily: Somewhere to the right of Hitler & Pinochet. Only exists to make The National Enquirer look credible.

Thus we can assess the likely truth of a given article and it's credibility.



You just asked for articles, you didn't specify any approved sources.

Hey, go do your own research. There's more than one article that questions the veracity of the Al Dura incident. In fact, WorldNet was talking about the LA Times article that suggested fraud.

And for the pic of the Israeli soldier "pointing" his gun at a kid with his family... looks like an optical illusion to me. The Israeli is way more in the foreground and looks like he's not really pointing directly at the kid.

Yeah Turkey is one of the more moderate ones. Not by any means as peaceful as UAE though. But I seem to recall that there was a difference with them from the start, something about an Ottaman Empire.
I saw in some history channel special that Mohammed was illiterate and the Koran was written by people he preached to 25 years after his death. For that reason it split into different views with similarities amongst the people he preached to.
I find a lot of this history fasinating and worth being studied. But you have to admit there is currently no equivalent (of a non-Islamic religion) in the world to Hamas, Hizbollah or Al Queda. These groups are the greatest threat to the world currently.
I can admit to the flaw in my arguement that Islam will ALWAYS make terrorists. But can you explain why Islam is the only religion that will endorse terrorists. As for Hitler, I heard he was actually half Jewish. And while he was trying to annihilate Jews, the Catholic Orphanages were taking Jewish orphans in and raising them "Catholic" to save their lives. I know, personally, Polish Jews who were saved this way. They never really converted to Catholism and the Catholics who saved them did not intend for that to be the case.

Now, to suggest that because there was some Christian teaching that Hilter had, that Christianity could somehow be responsible for his actions is proposterous.

Hitler's philosophy was race-based, not religion-based.

He didn't care about the Jewish faith, but he believed that the Jews (& non-whites) were an inferior race.



Just to drive down that particular side road a little further...

Was Hitler actually anti-semitic? Or was it simply that they were a convenient issue having weathered the economic collapses of Germany better than the general population? In much the same way as ALL politicians go to church on Sundays.

Julius Streicher was a committed anti-semitic shit. Himmler had some amazing views on race, particularly so for someone who looked like Himmler! But was it an actual belief, or was it pandering to the German desire (at the time) to blame someone (who they could get at) for their economic chaos?

Hi Trent,

I meant what I said. Worldnet Daily is a good example of using the overall character of a website to determine it's "impartiality". I assume that's how you used it.

Were you actually arguing about the 6 year old Al-Dura incident, then I'm sure you'd have used something like:

http://www.camera.org/index.asp?x_article=856&x_context=3

Which demonstrates the origins of the accusation.

Having said that, I wouldn't normally trust Camera.Org as far as I could throw them!! Viz:

http://www.camera.org/index.asp?x_context=4&x_outlet=12&x_article=811

is where Camera.Org claim a study by Glasgow University shows anti-Israeli bias in the BBC... While the actual study:

http://www.gla.ac.uk/departments/sociology/units/media/israel.htm

shows the complete opposite.

I agree that both sides need to be disarmed and a 3rd party needs to take over security for both sides. Someone mentioned the Swiss guards, or any other unbiased group would be great.



I hearby authorize Darius to form a disarmament committee to ensure that ALL of the Islamic States that have avowed to destroy Israel have a timetable to make all of their military armaments dissappear permanently.

I am sure that once that is set up.. that the Israelis will disarm with our help... and both sides will finally all live in peace.
