As for your example, I'm sure you would be less tolerant of it than Israel (if that were possible) but how about we give you another one to chew over? How about if Canada suddenly moved in and took over 90% of the US and gave you curfews and basically controlled everything you did and or said. Would you be pissed? Would you start resisting a little?
OK, and when you started your little resistance/protests, how about if those nasty Canadians started shooting you? Doing daily sweeps to pick up any possible dissenters?
What would you do then? You've been oppressed to the point where you have no resources to speak of. You're completely outgunned (hypothetical example OK?). What do you do? Just accept it?
You'd hate the bastards too and you know it.

All of them are under oppressive dictators, all of them could use your vocal support. Yet not a peep about these locked down folks. Not a fucking word. Why??? Cause the issue is not as sexy; no mean jews are there to point a fickle finger at.
Israel is a democracy surrounded by peeps who want to push them into the sea. Why those on the left are so for this is beyond me...
Breeze said:You have a good point, I am not pro Israel by any means. I'm just sick of the whole situation and am not optimist about anything being worked out anytime soon. As an American of Scottish descent I do not have much in common with either side, ethnically or religiously, and if it weren't for the possibility that some Islamic wacko's will get nuclear weapons I probably wouldn't be overly concerned over a situation that I have no control over. If any number of Muslim countries or groups had the means they would nuke Israel in a heartbeat. Then, as always, we would get right in the middle of it and we would have WW3, or maybe even Armagaedon on our hands. I know both sides have done some pretty vile things to one another, and I realize the Palestinians cannot win in a head on military confrontation, but randomly murdering women and children is inexcusable and cowardly. From what I've observed, it seems that if the Palestinians would stop sending exploding humans into Israel, maybe Israel would stop sending tanks and helicoptors. I've heard people who accuse the US of intentionally killing civilians in the Middle East as a way to justify 9/11, as if you can compare the Trade Center attack to one of our bombs straying off and hitting an unintented target, or killing noncombatants because one of their family members is shooting at our troops through the front door of their home. Until Fallujah, we were having soldiers killed by gunmen shooting from Mosques, because gunmen knew we wouldn't dare attack a holy place. I guess we decided that if they weren't going to respect their own mosques and use them as battle stations then they would be fair targets, now Fallujah has fewer mosques. Israel could destroy Palestine in a day if they wanted to, and we could wipe out the Middle East if we did not show constaint. I doubt if Middle Eastern countries with nukes would hesitate for one moment to use them.
