Re: Israeli Gaza Airstrikes

They believe God promised them the land from the Nile to the Euphrates. They've got a lot of land to steal yet. Using their justification when they provoke a response out of the arabs and then occupy land, they can circumvent U.N resolution 242 and instead permanently occupy the land.
They have two blue lines in their flag for a reason.
1) The Nile
2) The Euphrates
Zionism = Racism
&They pretend they aren't trying to take the land but everything they're doing is to protect themselves from the terrorists.
I like the article, and a few things stood out which were mentioned in this thread:
In September, Bush spoke at the United Nations. No cause could justify the deliberate taking of human life, he said. Yet the US has killed thousands of civilians in airstrikes on populated areas. When you drop bombs on populated areas knowing there will be some "collateral" civilian damage, but accepting it as worth it, then it is deliberate.
That could relate to the Israel&Gaza war. Schroedinger you spoke about collateral damage and said it was different from Palestinians who attacked Israeli civilians, what do you think about this? Do you think bombing a place knowing there will be a lot of civilians dead, is ok? Do you think if 10 civilians die and 1 terrorist dies, then it makes their deaths not as bad?
What if i was trying to kill you but killed Sam instead, isn't it still the intent to kill that matters? Who cares if you meant to kill another person, the whole point is you wanted to
kill someone. The Israelis are killing civilians everyday; atm they say theyre attacking terrorists and Hamas, and they know there will be civilians getting hurt but do they actually care about the civilians dying? No they don't. So why doesn't this count as them knowingly killing innocent people on purpose? What makes it different?
At least the Palestinians are trying to get their land back, and others are fighting to KEEP their land, since the Israelis seem very into bombing house and trying to scare Palestinians out of their homes so they can steal MORE land.
It is targeting Palestinian police forces and killing them,
including some such as the chief of police, Tawfiq Jaber, who was actually a former Fatah official who stayed on in his post after Hamas took control of Gaza.
What will happen to a society with no security forces? What do the Israelis expect to happen when forces more radical than Hamas gain power?
This kindof got me thinking, they ARE attacking these stuff, so if these attacks/war ends, &the Israelis continue with their a few deaths per day thing, what happens next? Do people think, the Israelis will kill all of Hamas and all 'terrorists', then the innocent civilians will live peaceful lives with the Israelis?
To those talking about Sufi/Salafi, they're both different things. Salafi: a part of the Sunni sect [kindof similar to Wahhabism], Sufi: a different sect, in Islam, altogether. Schroedinger did say it right. :/
