Calling people Nazi's because they do not agree with Israel's policies is pretty low and considering that you have family that died at the hands of the Nazi's, you should be ashamed of yourself for using them to justify Israel's actions. I think it is the way you cry "stop thief" whenever anyone brings it up. Reality Internet Personality |

Is it racist to think that most Arabs want to see Israel out of the region, when "A high 84 per cent believe the Palestinian question is the cause of all Arabs and not the Palestinians only." http://www.aljazeera.com/indepth/opinion/2012/03/20123793355501965.html And in case you missed it, recently Amnesty International accused the Palestinians of war crimes. http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/mar/26/amnesty-international-accuses-militants-in-gaza-of-war-crimes-in-2014-conflict |

Is it racist to think that most Arabs want to see Israel out of the region, when"A high 84 per cent believe the Palestinian question is the cause of all Arabs and not the Palestinians only." The report also alleged other international humanitarian law violations during the conflict, including Palestinian militant groups’ storing munitions in civilian buildings and United Nations schools, and launching attacks near locations where hundreds of displaced civilians were taking shelter. So who are these civilians? Are they Palestinians? Its racism when you hold an entire people responsible for the actions of some of them. Reality Internet Personality |

Its racism when you hold an entire people responsible for the actions of some of them. & that is a worldwide problem not just a Jewish/Arab one. It is also one that will not disappear, at least in our lifetime. |

Its racism when you hold an entire people responsible for the actions of some of them. The Jewish vs Egypt/Arab/Sumerians/palestinians/lebanes/manymore problem have existed for about 2600 years! |

It is the Nature of the Sin, and Amount of Sin, which matters. If you're going to travel that path, then you're wrong. Sin is sin, regardless of how small or large. |

It is the Nature of the Sin, and Amount of Sin, which matters. Not where religion is concerned, a sin is a sin. To start "allowing" the little ones to slip through, history has shown that it is difficult to stop the big ones. So if one wants to use religion, it's all or nothing, wouldn't you agree? |

Except for Religious Fanatics: I don't see 'Main Stream' Religions, having an 'All or Nothing' Philosophy, in many areas. & that's the problem! They decide what is best for the masses. Do their holy books actually say the "little ones" can slip through the net? |

I know I've often said that it takes all sorts to make a world, but sometimes, just sometimes... |

... Now that comment gives me quite an insight into your world view. Are you aware of the simple fact that with 8 billion people on the planet, most of them must be fairly peaceful and nice, or we'd be living in apocalyptic chaos? The every day acts of heroic love and kindness do not make the news. Its actually a minority of people that do all the terrible things in the world. Muslims make up 23% of the global population. Most of them aren't trying to kill you. The ones that are have grown up in unstable regions where they have seen loved ones murdered and oppressed by Western forces. Perhaps they didn't realise that their loved ones were being killed by "the good guys" for their own good. Reality Internet Personality |

... So their own killing them before Western Forces entered the fray does not count? Or their own killing them after Western forces depart does not count? |

Global Peace Index The world's leading measure of national peacefulness, the GPI measures peace according to 22 qualitative and quantitative indicators. http://www.visionofhumanity.org/#/page/contact If you look at middle east it look quite good if you exlude Syria, Iraq, Pakistan and Afghanistan. If you look at Europe even better if you exlude KALININGRAD, Russia, Ukraine and perhaps Greece.

This is valid as Egypt is involved in the dispute. Where are the Western Forces involved in this? When they can't even treat their own on a humane level, how can one expect Israel to accommodate the Muslim world when that world wants them gone? |

... Its really hard to read your posts, Clyde. I don't even know what you are trying to say here and I can't be bothered to try and figure it out today. I wish you'd stop using ALLCAPS. It makes you constantly look like you are ranting and shouting. That and the use of extremes like "evil" and "vile" etc etc. I can't deal with your apparent frothing and spitting right now. Ease off the CAPSLOCK and I might be able to decipher your posts a little better. Reality Internet Personality |

That and the use of extremes like "evil" and "vile" etc etc. You know I never noticed that. Do you think it is deliberate? Like a poetry thing. Reality Internet Personality |
