Mostly through faulty leadership, I think they do a good job at it themselves. They are definitely their own worst enemy.
Interesting..Neither. Hamas is oppressing Palestinians.
They're both oppressing Palestinians. The question is, what's so unjust about it?
The ugly truth is that nobody in the mideast particularly likes "Palistinians", including Arabs and fellow Muslims. How many did Jordan kill in that ugly business 50-some years ago? About 100,000 I think..
For those who think there is hypocrisy on one side or another of the Israel/Palestine issue, please vote and explain your position.

They just use them as an excuse to bash Israel.
Interesting..
And how do you know this?
Ever been there?
Ever had a heart to heart talk ?
If your OP was composed with total honesty Winston, your OP should have explained the the proper context of the original thread for this Poll.For those who think there is hypocrisy on one side or another of the Israel/Palestine issue, please vote and explain your position.

Basically, that thread deals with the Lebanese oppression of Palestinians living *within Lebanon*, and the horrible conditions in the 12 main Palestinian refugee camps *within Lebanon*.
But as everyone can plainly see, your Poll OP does not mention the oppression of Palestinians living *within Lebanon* at all. Your OP does not mention the hypocrisy of the Lebanese complaining about Gaza when the condition of Palestinians living *within Lebanon* is far worse.
Instead, your Poll drags Israel into an oppression of Palestinians that was formulated by and is maintained by the Lebanese. Four-generations worth of oppression.
At face value, you have framed your Poll here in a distinctly dishonest fashion.
Hamas and radical Islam is the most radical oppressor. I voted neither because my previous sentence states my beliefs. However, chosen between the two I would say Lebanon. Israel doesn't oppress Palestinians.
I don't even bother with Goobieman polls.The posting of the poll constitutes the message, and I think the message is pretty clear--here's your chance to go on record. If you believe both are committing an injustice, say so. If not, vote some other way.
