Biden calls Israel’s house demolition policy ‘collective punishment’

Share:

biden brookings institutionUS Vice President Joe Biden called on Israel to stop the demolition of homes of militants’ families, which he described as “collective punishment.”

Biden also criticized expansion of Jewish settlements “in the West Bank and East Jerusalem” and called on the government to do more to stop “vigilante justice” attacks against Palestinians.

Appearing at the Brookings Institution’s Saban Forum, he focused on US support for Israeli security and said that the Obama administration had provided Israel with over $17 billion in aid since it came into office six years ago, including $1 billion for the Iron Dome anti-missile system.

Biden included in his speech lavish expressions of love and support for Israel and for Prime Minister Netanyahu “although we drive each other crazy.” He said

Addressing the Iranian nuclear talks he estimated that the chances for an accord were “less than even” and insisted that a “good deal” that would make the world safer is entirely possible.

According to Israeli professor Yossi Mekelberg ” in the occupied West Bank and the blockaded Gaza, Palestinian’s rights are constantly and continuously violated. Beyond the green line there is no trace of Israeli democracy, only a very harsh occupation. A source of particular concern is the implementation of collective punishment policy by the Israeli security forces, on the Palestinian population in contravention of international law.”

He added in a recent article :”The phenomenon is taking place not only as a specific response to Palestinian militants’ attacks on Israeli targets. It is a daily occurrence aimed to deter the population from any form of resistance out of fear and to ensure the security (not to mention control of the territories) of Jews at the expense of Palestinians’ basic rights.”

The last few weeks witnessed the return of the Israeli practice of collective punishment, especially house demolitions, of entirely innocent Palestinians, for acts, deplorable as they might be, that were carried out by others.

Mekelberg says the” Israeli government argues that house demolitions, as other forms of collective punishment, are actually not punishments but aim to deter others from carrying out similar attacks on Israelis. However, there is no evidence that collective punishment deters would be assailants.”

Mekelberg concluded that ” the demolition of houses of the families of Palestinians, who killed Israelis in terror attacks, can only be regarded as an act of punishment and revenge.”

  1. “Beyond the green line there is no trace of Israeli democracy, only a very harsh occupation…” the guy is a genius…all he has to add is that a state’s obligation to democracy applies only inside it’s own borders..
    also he can mention that ruling an occupied territory is not subject to same rules as your own state..hypocrisy to demand Israel to follow a non existing code that no one else does

    finally, the revered professor would do good to expose the reasons why he is being hypocrite towards Israel (that is unless the news paper chose to publish only some of his words, in this case i apologizing in advance :))

      “also he can mention that ruling an occupied territory is not subject to same rules as your own state..hypocrisy to demand Israel to follow a non existing code that no one else does”, fair enough. Does this logic apply to the People living under occupation? They shouldn’t be judged by normal international law. According to you both sides are free to continue breaking international laws and are free to commit war crimes.

      1. no my friend..
        acts committed by an occupying force are not subject to same set of rules as ruling your own country- therefor comparing the 2 is false and biased by the root of it.
        as for international court.. :))))
        we’re still waiting for the PA to file some complains..can’t you see? they always threat and do nothing . the PA & Hamas knows better then to open this can of worms.
        they will threat till they turn blue so they can show a fiction of action for their people but they will do nothing cause they fit the definition of war criminals and wish no one to look into that..
        it’s all a game, an act, a show..played in order for them to maintain their control of the people while continue receiving donation money..it’s crystal clear, how can you not see it?

          Ok, I can see we won’t agree here, but thats ok. One question, how are the Palestinians war criminals? They are an occupied people, so they don’t have to play by the same rules. Right?

          1. right, they can act as they wish as long as they understands there is a reaction to every action- if they chose the violence path they should understand in advance they will encounter ten folds stronger violence.
            i’m not here to fix the world, I only live in it

          2. Indigenous Palestinians are a false claim, they are Arabs who took Palestine form the Cannanites, so they are imperialists

            Arafatus. You’re an uneducated Western Jew with no links to the Middle East. Canaan was the land of the Semitic TRIBES, roaming in the desert of Shem (Sham- Damascus in Arabic till this day), Abraham lived in tents in the Desert..he married two women, David had 500 wives.

            Jews are a race not a religion, you’re semi-crazy, the AshkeNazim think Jews are the only Semitic people in existence in the World, it’s surreal.. Not in history, science, anthropology, genealogy..

            The apostles and first Christians in Palestine prayed in Synagogues and Knesset (gathering place), Church is Knisseh in Arabic till this day.
            Coptic manuscripts 41AD relate to the history due to the proximity of Palestine
            Paul killed followers of Jesus (all Jews as Jesus).later he created Christianity, Moslems who converted to Islam were Jews or Christians.

          4. Earth to Hind…come in please. On second thought, do not.
            But do answer one question for me. Why did your prophet, you know the sadist clown Mohammed, have intercourse with a nine year old girl when he was 54. Is this normal behavior among Muslims?

            Actually Maborlz, I’m glad if you see some of the little truths, which are too often hidden in a pile of general crap that wraps it. The trick is to separate out the realities of life from the ‘belief’ bits … the things all the religions fall back on to attempt giving ‘reason’ to inhumanities. Laying ANY of the ‘crap’ on God is where they are all wrong.
            And ‘The Tribalists’ seem to be the worst.
            I note that Arafat said: “I’m a Christian from Iraq.” He didn’t say ‘I’m an Iraqi, and happen to be Christian.’
            You can see why they all walked away and left ISIS to pick up the weapons.
            Problem was, that move didn’t protect the little Tribal ‘lands’ with gratitude either.

            True as well, religion makes people think they’re superior to others. When that happens you begin to think others are lesser peoples (ex. Jews and goyim, Muslim & infidels). Sometimes evil is used to prove the point.

            Hind will never reply when you corner her, but it’s not her fault, her brain was conditioned to evade when it faces reality. Let me answer the question though. In the 7th century, before and all the way till the 20th and among all cultures and civilizations, a girl was considered ready for marriage and therefore intercourse as soon as she has her first period. Only recently did it become pedophelia to have sex with a minor (less than 18).
            Not to say that it was right, pedophelia has been scientifically proven to be extremely damaging, but it was the norm. Many Jews and non Jews “raped” 9 years old not for thousands but for millions of years. Heck, Mary mother of Jesus was 12 to 14 when God “forced” himself on her. Lot of examples in the Old Testament too of what is today outright criminal.
            What Mohamed did by marrying and bedding all these girls of all ages was nothing’s abnormal.

            In time periods when average life expectancy was 35, perhaps at best, unless one was coddled and protected and fed well, what we would consider ‘too young’ now was ‘old’.
            Some ‘Rulers’ – born with the silver spoons in their mouths – were leading armies at age 14 because their own parents had passed on from a disease, or a sword.
            I think ‘age’ is part of the problem with all the ‘ancient fairy tales’, that the ‘old storytellers’ and balladeers carrying the tales were actually filled with the imaginings of young minds, and embellished them accordingly.
            No-one has ever been able to define, with a mathematical certainty, the number in a horde. Although a lot of people (or sheep) were attacked by them it seems. :-)))
            MOST of humanity wore itself out simply working to death attempting to survive by scratching the land, when it finally figured out how to cultivate an edible.
            Most, cultivated it FOR a King … for example like the ‘famous’ Solomon … who managed to live quite a long time because he had MANY women ‘taking care’ of him. 😉
            http://ancienthistory.about.com/od/biblicalhistory/qt/020511-Wives-of-Solomon.htm

            He ‘reigned’ for 40 years … perhaps that makes his life a touch over 50?. Wow.
            Our problem is that there wasn’t a recording device around to chronicle events in the ‘inner sanctums’, to see how all those ladies kept him alive for so long. :-))))

          3. Israel should also withdraw immediately from the United Nations (whose full name seems more accurately to be UNAI, the United Nations Against Israel) and help found a robust league of democracies, a new body where human rights violators don’t preside over human rights councils and where blocs of Islamists and communists don’t dictate to progressive republics. The UN might have arguably been the greatest endeavor man ever embarked upon; instead, it is a tiresome farce run by malevolent circus clowns. This is one club to which the Jew, and the Jewish State, should not belong and not wish to belong.

            Be it killing one million animists in Sudan, or killing one million of one another as they did in the Iran/Iraq War, or killing 70 million Hindus which they did in their many jihads of southern Asia.

            WE in the Middle East have nothing to do with Sudan, Iran, Hindus, or Asia. Israel is allied with Saudi Arabia that helped foreign Jihad go to Syria. The first massacred by “rebels” were Christians who were born there and Armenian Genocide grandchildren, millions of Christians are gone from the Levant thanks to the West and allies. See UN Report below, before i go, thank you for exterminating our Christians by proxie$$$.. We will never forget. They were living in Irak and Syria for 2000 years. Gone with the Wind.

          7. Hind, are you a reenactment of Pavlov’s dogs? But your response being the propaganda that’s been beaten into your brain for your entire life.
            Muslims are killing Christians in Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Yemen, Lebanon. Is this close enough to home for you. Of course, Christians are not allowed to carry bibles or wear crosses in countries like Saudi Arabia and they are not even allowed in Mecca.
            Your bullsh*t about Islam is first class taqiyya and I’m sure your Muslim masters are proud of you for it.

            What you want of me, Israel is aiding them, Israeli planes violates Lebanon’s air space everyday, spying on Lebanese Army barraks taking data for ISIS. Israel does what it want’s. I know all about Saudi Arabia Wahhabi hate Christians. Jews write “Jesus mother was is a whore”, on monastery’s walls. You seam to know Islam a lot but i don’t..we never discuss religion with friends, that’s all you talk about (another Zionist troll)..
            “Muslims killing Christians in Syria”, yes since 2011 with the Jihads invasion, the Levant was Christianity Chateau Fort.. millions are gone.
            As for your Mohamed raping a nine year old, you didn’t read the Talmud.

          14. No. I read the Qur’an and hadiths and there I learned all about the pedophile prophet named Mohammed.

            Sorry for the audience.

            First- Yalkut 245c (about Christians)
            Extermination of the Christians is a necessary sacrifice.

            Zohar, Shemoth
            Tob shebbe goyyim harog – Even the best of the Goyim
            (Gentiles) should be killed.

            Avodah Zarah 36b
            They decreed in connection with a heathen child that
            it should cause defilement by seminal emission so that an Israelite child should not become accustomed to commit pederasty with him…. It is therefore to be concluded that a heathen girl [communicates defilement] from the age of three years and one day, for inasmuch as she is then capable of the sexual act she likewise defiles by a flux. This is obvious!
            ———
            Avodah Zarah 36b-37a
            R. Joseph said: Come and hear! A maiden aged three years and a day may be acquired in marriage by coition [intercourse], and if her deceased husband’s brother cohabits with her, she becomes his. The penalty of adultery may be incurred through her; [if a niddah] she defiles him who has connection with her, so that he in turn defiles that upon which he lies, as a garment which has lain upon [a person afflicted with gonorrhoea].
            ——-
            Sanhedrin 55b
            Rab said: Pederasty with a child below nine years of age is not deemed as pederasty with a child above that. Samuel said: Pederasty with a child below three years is not treated as with a child above that.
            (24) I.e., Rab makes nine years the minimum; but if one committed sodomy with a child of lesser age, no guilt is incurred. Samuel makes three the minimum.

            That’s nothing, the horror is unbearable..

        3. Palestinians are a miserable and pathetic people. They slit the throats of innocent Israeli families, then whine when
          Israel sets up check points to prevent this. They blow
          themselves up on crowded Israeli buses, then whimper when Israel prevents this with a wall. They shoot rockets at Israel by the thousands, then kvetch and moan
          when Israel deploys Iron Dome defenses to prevent this, too.
          ==

          They forced the construction of the wall. They necessitated
          the checkpoints. All of their misery is their own doing. But they will never acknowledge that truth; because that would mean self-reflection and intelligence (decency and kindness) on their part– all characteristics they and their
          leadership know nothing about.

            Your another person who has taken the Israeli story hook, line and sinker. The Palestinian people are ruled by either the PLO, FATAH or HAMAS these entities have given israel reason to get away with cold blooded murder for decades. How do these groups get continuous funding and continuous supply of weapons? Israel knows more about HAMAS than the Palestinians and they have been using the same CARD for decades to justify their always increasing land/water/natural resource grabs and occupation of Palestinian, Syrian, lebanese, Jordanian and Egyptian land. Make no mistake the only people to benefit from the middle eastern turmoil are the instigators of this mess.

            Why are you trying to educate Muslims about the prophet? They know that he married a 6 year old and had sex with her at 9. Your point? What year did this happen? you do realize that this was not uncommon during those times. As soon as a girl had her 1st period she was good to go.

            Are there Jewish practices that are strange and considered immoral? Maybe the practice of a Jewish mohel?

          7. So it’s OK for a prophet to rape a nine year old girl. I guess that explains a lot about why Islam treats women like dirt.

          8. man-o-war Avatar

            From todays perspective it’s certainly not OK, lot got drunk and impregnated his daughters, and God forgave them. Would that be OK today? Of course not! I think you’re broad generalizations are offensive and it’s really hard to take you seriously. There are hundreds of millions of good hardworking Muslims all over the world, and they’re not out there plotting world domination.

          9. There are two basic camps of Muslims:

            ~ the “jihadist”, who wants to hack
            our heads off.

            ~ the “moderate”, perfectly content
            with the jihadist hacking our heads off.

            You’re Christian? What will happen to people that refuse to except Jesus Christ as their lord and savior?

          11. Muslims are not evil. Islam is evil. It is supremacist with the goal of Muslims ruling over all others, including killing those who do not acquiesce to Islam.

            When did your brain turn to mush?

          24. man-o-war Avatar

            When i started reading your comments.

            What was Israel before 1948?

          25. “Why is it Muslims are free to violently conquer lands
            anywhere and everywhere without a word of protest from American Muslims, or any Muslims or any liberals?

            But if Jews have a legally established homeland Muslims and Liberals and their ilk will never stop protesting against it? Why is this do you suppose? What explanation can be given other than as the Qur’an states
            repeatedly that Islam’s goal is to establish a worldwide caliphate in which all non-Muslims are subjugated.

            For instance, Mohammed was born around 571 AD thousands and thousands of years after Hinduism, Buddhism and Judaism existed. But within a
            few centuries of Mohammed’s birth Islam had violently conquered vast sections of Asia, all of North Africa and smaller sections of Southern Europe.

            Now Muslims tell us that all this land belongs to them even
            though, for instance, in Afghanistan they killed every last Buddhist who once lived there. According to Muslim logic per Israel shouldn’t this land belong to
            the Buddhists?

            Or in North Africa all the Berbers have been forcibly
            converted to Islam or have been killed and now we’re told all this vast landmass belongs to Islam. That’s interesting, if not completely hypocritical.

            And what about Southern Thailand. Did anyone know that in the last several years something like 5,000 Buddhists have been killed by Muslims because, or so we’re told, the land the Buddhists are on belongs to Islam.

            And Southern Russia? Muslims are relentlessly waging a slow reign of terror in Russia because, you guessed it, Russians are treating Muslims poorly and they should give up the Southern section of that country to
            Muslims since Islam deserves all lands.

            Or, let’s take Sudan as another example. How many millions have been killed in Sudan? How many babies and children have starved in Sudan while Islamists steal the food from aid compounds? How many women have Muslims gang-raped in Sudan all because that land belongs to Muslims and only Muslims. All other people can go somewhere else to live, I guess. They can go to South Sudan, but wait a minute, now Muslims are killing the people of South Sudan too.

            And Kashmir? The same. Despite Hindus having lived there for 3,000 years – something like 2,000+ years before Mohammed was born – Muslims tell us Kashmir belongs to them. Amazing logic isn’t it? Muslim logic, I guess.

            And that brings us to Israel. Israel also belongs to Islam
            too. Did you know that? It’s true. Just ask a Muslim or a liberal if you prefer. Even though it’s no bigger than a small pimple on the caliphate’s ass it is still their land and they will fight to the death to prove their point.

            Doesn’t the logic here make a lot of sense. Isn’t it as
            clear as day? Of course it does. The world belongs to Islam and we’re mere players on their stage.

          26. STOP CONFUSING THEM WITH LOGIC!!!!!!!!!

            double plus- we can now stop giving them all this free electricity they take from us and not paying, we will not be forced to supply them water as we are now when the law say they are depended on us.

            No one wid start a war wid Israel if it moved back to Europe. Plain and simple

          54. not true, most are ME, if you do the math it makes sense- most European Jews died in WWII and from the ones that left, only a fraction came to Israel.
            ME jews on the other hand were not harmed & came mostly to Israel, including the entire jewish population of Iraq, Maroco, Yeman..whole comunities

            go to europe anyways.. how does it makes sense to leave one arab state be it iraq/marocco/ yemen due to anti-semitisme and go to another arab state palestine. they hate u all over the arab world. in europe they love u.

          56. i would not go to Europe these days even if i had a EU passport, too many Muslims there right now that kill people- it’s safer where i was born, in the Jewish state.
            the Muslim’s wold’s hate don’t bother me one way or another..that’s all they are- haters and i’m not going to get offended by that anymore then i’d be offended of the sun raising in the east- it’s a fact of life and we got to live with it.

            i thought u were born in iraq? Now u were suddenly born in the jewish state?
            i donno why u think only muslims hate the jews? i have already told u that not only muslims hate u guys.
            b4 u started to kill muslims and muslim babies in particular they were the only ones who defended and protected the jews – a hugeeeeeeee mistake in retrospect. what else cud explain the fact that jews r still around in the ME. in fact muslims r excellent in terms of coexisting as opposed to europeans and jews. while their were no minorities other than christians in europe until recently and while the jews r cleansing muslim and christian palestinians alike the diversity in the majority muslim world has survived for well over 1000’s of yrs.

          58. besides, it’s kind of hypocrite on your behalf, don’t you think..”in the name of justice”you want to deport me the “European Jew” to Europe, when you find out i’m from ME, you still want to deport me to Europe but now cause you “care for me” and don’t want me to be where there are anti Jews feelings… (what would be your pre-text when i contradict that?)
            yet, you are speaking from Europe right now.it is flooded by the same Arabs/Muslims you want to “protect” me from :))

            In 1882, the Jewish population of Palestine was about 24,000. In 1914, the entire population of Palestine was estimated at 634,133 Muslim and Christian Arabs and 45,413 Jews. In 1920, after the British mandate, the official census showed the Arab population, both Muslim and Christian, at nearly 600,000, still greatly exceeding the Jews, who numbered 66,574. Until 1948 the Arab population continued to exceed the Jewish by roughly 2:1. Ibid., p.25. “the last official British census in 1931 found Arabs in Jerusalem outnumbered Jews 2:1 with surrounding areas averaging 98% Arab!
            The Ad Hoc Committee on the Palestinian Question in the United Nations found in 1948 that, except for Haifa, ‘the Arabs have a clear majority over the Jews.’ Ibid., p. 26. “So much for the Israeli.. claim that for centuries Jews in Jerusalem and surrounding areas have outnumbered a tiny Arab population!

            To paraphrase Arafatus who should stop being a moron;

            “The Zionist knowledge of history is jaw dropping.

            “Zealots don’t care much about reality”.

            The Pompous little Watching Dog: Occupiers the Arabs sided with The Nazi In world war1 and two. (?)

            Zionism was created by Russian Fascist Jabotinsky in 1916, the Fascists Russian Jews killed the Romanoff family. Anarchists and Nihilists rejected religion and morality “The Possessed”, in Dostoevsky.
            ISIS are Moslem Nihilists.

            Fyodor Dostoyevsky helped popularize this sense of nihilism by offering up the savage caricatures of left-wing political operatives that we see, above all, in The Devils (also called The Possessed; 1871).
            The chief “devil” in this book, Peter Verkhovensky, is a self-described nihilist notable for his desire to bring about terrible destruction and for his utter lack of concern about what might follow that destruction. Peter Verkhovensky’s real-life prototype, the notorious anarchist Sergei Nechaev (1847–1882), had written in the Catechism of a Revolutionary (1869). “The revolutionary disdains all doctrinairism and repudiated all peaceful science. He knows one science only: the science of destruction.” Third, the term nihilism came to be used, again in political life, in a sympathetic sense to denote the Russian revolutionary movement broadly peaking termed nihilism. Anarchists Emma Goldman (1869–1940) and Alexander Berkman… (1870–1936), both Russian immigrants to the United States, used the term nihilist in their memoirs to refer to the heroes of the Russian revolutionary movement.

            Emma Goldman-“Comrade Reynolds resents the contention of the Jews that Palestine had been their homeland two thousand years ago. He insists that this is of no importance as against the Arabs who have lived in Palestine for generations.
            I do not think either claim of great moment, unless one believes in the monopoly of land and the right of Governments in every country to keep out the newcomers.

            Surely Reginald Reynolds knows that the Arab people have about much to say who should or should not come into their country as the under-privileged of other lands. In point of fact our friend admits as much when he states that the Arab feudal lords had sold the land to the Jews without the knowledge of the Arab people. This is of course nothing new in our world.

            The capitalist class everywhere owns, controls and disposes of its wealth to suit itself. The masses, whether Arab, English or any other, have very little to say in the matter”

            NB. Nothing has changed and we know who sold Palestine in WW1.

            Probably some kind of ‘retaliation’ for all the ‘piggy’ cartoons Hamas pumps out for their kids. But of course, wrong to make ‘printers’ change what was written in what is supposed to be a text-book … imagine if later in life they find an earlier edition. 😉
            It’s shoa gonna confuse them, at the least, when the neighbour asks what nabka they used… Assuming the neighbour recognizes that these were the same folks who were supposed to look like Porky.
            I agree that ‘antisemitic’ labelling is SUCH a crock, when used to vilify someone else’s little customs – for instance like wine and Christmas trees and actually saying the word prefixed by ‘Merry’ in a greeting of goodwill. It tends to kill the ‘goodwill’. Or even makes some of us shout it back when the retailer’s slave says ‘Happy Holiday’.
            I am old enough to be an irreverent bastard – and I’m not on holiday anyway.
            MERRY CHRISTMAS! :-)))
            On (Hanika,Hanukkah,Chanukah) and Ramadan I’ll return their ‘Happy&Peaceful’ greetings – in the time-periods they occur.
            (none make sense – like Easter – changed that one to Spring Break. 😉
            But isn’t this just like the ‘new-talk’ of nasty ‘Phobes’??? Or that real old gem, ‘Racist’?

I felt it more as I experienced it – in youth – a ‘child’s day’ and moments of a time in life. The ‘Magic’ of Christmas was real enough … in ‘my’ time … and I attempted to pass some on. Now, it’s memories and sad reflections. What can we say?

      3. it’s not true – PA has the option to apply to Hague and if it happens, so would Israel .(Israel can’t file a complain till PA applies and accepted)
        the option is there, but the PA chose is not to do it .
        I imagine (assume ;)) that PA will not do it cause :
        a: the court will burst the bubble PA cultivating about “war criminal Israel” and leave the PA with no more illusions to sell the people
        b: PA itself, including it’s Hamas & PLO leaders would find themselves charged with real war crimes.
        they say one thing and act the other way around for 10 years now, doesn’t it make you wonder about their true intentions?

        1. While Israelis laud their scientists, their artists, their
          doctors and multiple Nobel Prize nominees and recipients, Palestinians have a long and ignominious tradition of extolling the virtues of those who commit mass murder, slaughter
          innocents on buses and hijack commercial airliners. Public squares and streets are named after them and their children are taught to emulate them. The contrast between
          Israeli and Palestinian society could not be starker. One society celebrates and encourages progress and life while the other has morphed itself into a death cult, steeped in perverted traits that are an anathema to Western civilization.

            Nobel Prize are Noble when they support Zionism, Einstein was not.. Albert Einstein, on April 17, 1938, in a speech at the Commodore Hotel in New
            York City, said:

            “I should much rather see reasonable agreement with the Arabs on the basis of living together in peace than the creation of a Jewish state. Apart from practical consideration, my awareness of the essential nature of Judaism resists the idea of a Jewish state with borders, an army, and a measure of temporal power no matter how modest. I am afraid of the inner damage Judaism will sustain — especially from the development of a narrow nationalism within our own ranks, against which we have already had to fight strongly, even without a Jewish state. ” [1]

            In January, 1946, in a reply to the question of whether refugee settlement in Palestine demanded a Jewish state, Einstein told the Anglo-American Committee of Inquiry,

            “The State idea is not according to my heart. I cannot understand why it is needed. It is connected with narrow-minded and economic obstacles. I believe it is bad. I have always been against it.” [2]

          “At this particular time, the Israeli air force flew over the Riyaq airport and the two barracks of the Lebanese army in charge of security in the region, to spy on this particular site. Israel was spying on a Lebanese
          military location, which may be targeted by Syrian armed opposition fighters. This happened amid Western media reports about the cooperation between Israeli authorities
          and some armed Syrians in southern Syria. This raised legitimate concern among the Lebanese that Israel is spying on them to serve the fighters. The transfer of data collected from the Israeli fly overs of main locations of the Lebanese army, to armed groups, may be of great
          service to the latter in their attacks against the army and their attempts to breach its bases. This might also benefit Israel itself, as these steps will increase pressure on Hezbollah through terrorists, from the northeast to Hezbollah’s areas of deployment where it confronts the
          Israeli army. Thus, the routine Israeli airspace violations turned into a hostile and serious step that required an anti-aircraft response by the Lebanese army, which is a rare step to be taken in Lebanese airspace and territory…..continue

            Have you seen the height of the cliffs around fiords ?? I’d say ‘down’. Certainly higher than me, a lot of those Scandinavians. At least they have a few alluvial plains to launch a boat from. When all the ice melts, they will still have the Reindeer high and dry. 😉

            Perhaps I should have used the terms .. ‘over’, and ‘under’. ‘Top’ and ‘bottom’.
            Mind you, if it was conventional to hang a map with the South Pole at the top, you would have to take the time to flip all the names over so you could read them … a huge task.

            i pointed out that despite all ur “secularism”, “democracy” and “freedoms” 20% of the westerners r on antidepressants. 20% is such a huge number proving that ur system is no where near perfect as u claim it to be why i dont want u to bring the ME any of those.
            i’m not saying the iranian model is perfect either, what i’m saying is that if u take care of ur own 20% depressed, we’ll take care of our 90%. and we dont need u nor ur democracy to fix that for us. all we need is u to take care of ur 20% and let us alone!

            Just transfer the stereotypical ‘cry babies to you’… there will be no misunderstanding.

          36. but it’s about arabs, not jews.
            i.e:
            you* start a war with israel, israel kick your butts , you* run crying and blame anybody but yourself.you never even attempt to rise above this, you* just keep crying

            * “you” applies to all Arabs through out the years since 1948 war Egyptian/Syrians/Jordanians/Iraqis/Lebanese/PLO/Hamas etc etc etc

      2. Let’s see. Out of the 22 Arab countries, zero are democracies. The Arabs say that the one democracy in the picture -Israel — is evil, and that if only the Arabs in the vicinity (the Palestinian Arabs) were allowed to set up their own nation next to Israel, they would suddenly stop attacking Israel and would become nice and democratic. Yeah, right.

          It is a defeat for Israel to start comparing itself to Arabs. Israel must be comparing itself with modern, democratic and free countries. If it’s portraying itself as a step better than the Arabs then the whole idea of a state of Israel has failed miserably.
          PS: Tunisia is an Arab democracy.

          Your reply has nothing to do with what he said. He stated undeniable facts, you’re stating assumptions and insults. When you defend the Jewish state blindly what’s the difference between you and the ISIS guy who is defending his Caliphate (a Muslim state) blindly?
          Wrongdoing must be pointed out. The truth must be said. What Michael said is very true and was said with respect. You ought to learn from him instead of insulting him.

          1. I state facts you don’t want to hear the truth..You don’t want peace the only thing you understand is IDF response..To your war crimes…

            More assumptions that limit your analytical skills.
            I recognize israel’s right for existence more as a de facto presence rather than a just or divine one. History is full of such examples where populations moved from one place and grabbed the lands of others and settled in their homes. It was never fair but so is life.
            I don’t defend palestinians who tried to do exactly the same as the Israelis did, moved to another land and (tried) to grab it and settle as in Lebanon, Jordan, Syria…
            Both Israelis and Palestinians have done the same unfair and unjust things, saying one is better than the other is wrong.
            While many Palestinians do not want peace, many Israelis do not want peace either. I like to support those on BOTH sides who want peace and after the next elections I’m hoping that the balance will tilt in the favor of that group.
            If not… Well popcorn ain’t Gona kill me watching the warmongers continue the fight.

    3. Modern Muslims have religious conflict with: Hindus in Kashmir;
      Christians in Nigeria, Egypt, and Bosnia; atheists in Chechnya; Baha’is in
      Iran; Animists in Darfur; Buddhists in Thailand; each other in Iraq, Pakistan,
      Somalia, and Yemen; Jews in Israel; Why is Islam involved in more sectarian and religious conflicts than any other religion today? In fact, why is Islam the
      only religion in conflict with every single one of today’s major world
      religions?

      But you think belligerent pugnacious Islam has legitimate grievances in this
      constant conflict, and that, for example in Palestine, Islam is just defending
      its own reasonable interests?

      No, not at bottom. At bottom what we have in Islam is a violent,
      expansionist totalitarianism. That’s why Islam is in conflict all over the
      world with every other religion.

        Your stating the obvious, if you ask wargame they are only doing as the prophet did and are only being obedient as the prophet taught them to fight. It’s not the moslems who are at fault, its the creed they follow.

      doron is a moron

      Is it unorthodoxed for a jew to criticize Israel’s inhumane practices? Why the blasphemy over someone simply doing what any member of a democracy would do? Oh wait, I forgot, we have to give Israel special treatment, and there are always caveats that apply in their interpretation of “Democracy”.

      Doron, I call you a moron because I expect you to know better. Instead you come across as a tired, broken record apologist who sanctions the daily genocide undertaken by the government of Israel.

      1. Moron makes a good point, Nothing gets Israelis more pissed than Jews who side with humanity.
