    Take America back before it's too late!

    sKiTzo - I'm a Palestinian-Jordanian. I came here to tell you that you should be ashamed of yourself. The views you're representing are NOT helping or representing our people in any way. Your comments are fundamentally bigoted and anti-Semitic. Please, never use my country as a misguided...

    Would we be better off had the Cold War continued to this day?

    No we wouldn't. We would, however, be better off if it ended more evenly

    Israel admits killing Arafat's deputy

    The same could be said for Menachem Begin and his work with Irgun, or Yitzhak Shamir and his work with Stern. Or Ariel Sharon and Qibya Yet I don't imagine you would have the same outlook if this were an assassination of one of the Israeli Premiers would you?

    It's official: The Jewish majority is no more

    I wouldn't say that the Jewish majority is no more. Although this statement encompasses the entirety of the areas that fall under Israeli control (and not just Israel), I think it's important to recognise the significant proportion of non-Jews under the administration. As far as I'm aware, the...

    Does GDP growth of 1.3% and inflation of 1.6% equal a recession?

    Now I believe that measures of REAL GDP growth take inflation into account already, unless you're referring to nominal growth?

    Middle Eastern Embassy/Consulate Attacks

    Disgraceful of you to describe an entire race of people like this, and to decontextualise years of cause and effect that culminated in these events. You should be ashamed of yourself.

    Israeli man sets himself on fire during Tel Aviv social protest

    Well the entire Arab Spring was triggered by Buazzizi setting himself on fire in Tunisia, so yes, I think it was pretty effective in gaining media attention.

    Israel breaching UN convention on children's rights[W:15]

    1 - As a result of built up resentment of "the enemy", the culmination of 60 years of conflict. The same reason why Palestinians are also more prone to violent behavior towards Israelis 2 - That's a valid point there. My only problem is that the IDF Marshal Law breaches UN convention of the...

    Israel breaching UN convention on children's rights[W:15]

    Yeah, I think that you will find much of this is exaggerated or often fabricated. However, I hold no doubt that the IDF are renowned for use of brutal force in some occasions. The recent scandal regarding that officer taking pictures with dead prisoners and much more (I will try to find an...

    Israel breaching UN convention on children's rights[W:15]

    Hey everybody, Hope you're all having a great day. I came across this article on the BBC today: BBC News - Israel 'breaching UN convention on children's rights' and was wondering what you all think of the issue? Is the treatment of Palestinian children immoral/illegal or is it justified? I'd...

    Hamas agrees to Egypt-brokered Gaza truce

    I'm not great at splitting up quotes and will fail dramatically on the iPad so I will just address your responses by number. 1 - The post I provided above is from just over a month ago and presents Hamas and Fatah's agreement on a deadline for unity, as well as speeding up the reconciliation. I...

    Hamas agrees to Egypt-brokered Gaza truce

    Hey Eagle, That link was posted in reference to Hamas' expressions regarding the recognition of Israeli borders based on the green line. With regards to your question, over the past year there have been significant plans regarding reconciliation and the formation of a unity government. 'Hamas...

    Hamas agrees to Egypt-brokered Gaza truce

    I see your point, and I think the potential for that is for unity with the PA. It has expressed some desire for recognition: Haniyeh: Hamas willing to accept Palestinian state with 1967 borders - Israel News | Haaretz Daily Newspaper While this isn't recognition of an Israeli state, it at least...

    A view of Palestine question you may not have heard: the Palestinian one [W:24]

    I agree, and I think that is the status that should be given to it. Yet I think many seek to recognise and refer to it as "The Jewish State"; I have no problems with it being a nation state largely populated by Jews, and based on Jewish principals. However, when it starts to become recognised by...
