Faced with an overwhelmingly superior force, that's exactly what I would do. For the sake of my children.

Yep my native American ancestors must have loved their children more than the Palestinians love theirs.

Let's see, the first US vrs Indian tribes war started in the 18th century and the last battle was in the 20th century (1918), I'm thinking this conflict has a ways to go if you want to make that comparison.

My children are far more important than a piece of dirt. Why would you find that hard to believe? Do you have kids? |

Yes the battle will go on until Christ returns.
So accepting this ugly fact we must support Israel and their necissity to fight the Palestinains and their Arab allies, even though the Israelis are not perfect just like their less than perfect antagonizing counterpart the Palestinians.

They may regard children as less valuable compared to holy land.
Additionally, the loss of such dirt leads to overcrowding and a serious refugee problem in neighboring regions, which is a serious problem in terms of health care and education. It's a fair guess to say that Palestinians are not happy about this. |

I do. But a place is just a place. One can build a home in a new place. It's family that can't be replaced. |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | | | |
