It wasn't the <EM>US</EM> who granted them the charter way back when. <BR/><BR/>And to be honest, I don't see them "ethnic cleansing" all the Palestinians - there are so many living <EM>in</EM> Israel who are doing just fine, you see? It's the constant shelling from Palestinian territory that they object to. I can understand that...and once in a while, they get sick enough of it to put the smack down, despite the world telling them how horrible they are. It wouldn't be right for us not to expect a response if we were shelling, for example, Canada. They'd be perfectly within their rights to fire back eventually. <BR/><BR/>Everyone in the situation just needs to get over "revenge," but it's not exactly "fair" (or particularly sane) to keep firing missiles at people and expect them not to do something about it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15875615042494162401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11302922.post-29155556802131515972008-04-17T04:01:00.000-06:002008-04-17T04:01:00.000-06:00Israel only exist because the US lets it and gives...Israel only exist because the US lets it and gives it money and support for ethnic cleansing and outright theft.<BR/><BR/>That's just not right.<BR/><BR/>It doesn't matter if you censor this because you know in your heart that you are part of the problem.Richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04573955585806562627noreply@blogger.com
