Speaking as a former protestor of the Viet Nam war: I was just a teenager then. I knew little about politics. I understood one thing, that I hated war.
Does anyone here actually like war? Of course not! Do i enjoy seeing innocent civilians die? Certainly not!
Did America want to get involved in WWII? We wanted to remain in our own country. Ignorance is bliss, so the saying goes. That is until the Japanese attacked us at Pearl Harbor. Then we were awakened from our dream of safety at all costs and our hoping that our ememies would just magically cease and desist.
If these nations had their way, Germany's Hitler for one, we probably wouldn't be typing comfortably in our homes arguing about Israel doing all She can both to defend Herself and making sure bombs don't continue to hit Her and kill Her innocent civilians. If Japan had destroyed America you may not be enjoying the freedom of complaining about your Government (if you're American.) There will be no Christianforums if the Islamic Fundies rule the world. Half the pograming you enjoy on television would not be available for your viewing pleasure. So much for "American idol." I may not agree with men looking at women in mini skirts but be prepared fellows. Women you can forget about voting and don't even dream of kissing your boy friend in public.
When they start dropping bombs on our shores, when our freedoms are threatened, when our comfortable lifestyles are challenged, when our women are placed under Islamic Law, when it's illegal to be a Christian then maybe people will get why Israel had to take the measures that they are taking. But it seems as though some comfortable spoiled Americans and Europeans don't get this. They are enamored with Hezbollah (sp?) blind to the fact that they (we) may be the next target of Jihad.
What is Israel? A democracy! How are you able to enjoy your freedom? People fought and died so you can be free.
When the bombs fell on Pearl Harbor that's when America woke up. Wow! People out there really do hate us and want to distroy our country. Israel has known this for a long, long, time and She won't give up Her freedom. Israel is a friend of democracy.
