I didn't think this thread was worth reading because it's so obviously biased, but it seems to have drawn polar opposites to it, who have made some really disgusting remarks above...

I mean, I get that this source isn't true, but it seems to me like a lot of people have a very, very strong bias towards Israel - more than I thought you guys did.

My source is just a compilation of reports about the subject. They were professionaly written including sources. I cant see anything  more trustable than these reports.

FACTS
Since the beginning of the second Intifada, Israeli authorities have detained more than 2 500 children. As of December 5, 2004, approximately 373 Palestinian children are still in Israeli prisons and detention facilities. Most of them are held within Israel and far from their places of residence. 3
According to the Israeli organization B“tselem (which use the term Barrier and not the wall), the route of the Barrier was dictated by extraneous considerations, which have little to do with security. Almost no attention was paid to the extensive harm this route will cause Palestinians. The Barrier divides neighborhoods and cuts off access to jobs and schools. The Barrier will be detrimental to 38% of the Palestinian population on the West Bank. 4
During 2004 Israel demolished 181 homes in the Occupied Palestinian Territories as a means of punishment and 1 357 homes claiming military necessity. These demolitions left some 11 500 Palestinian homeless. Altogether Israel has demolished 4 100 homes during the Intifada. As a result at least 28 000 Palestinians have been rendered homeless. 5
There are 55 permanent staffed checkpoints in the West Bank. 17 checkpoints deep into the West Bank restrict movements between Palestinian cities. 27 checkpoints control movements between Israel and the West Bank (including 10 around Jerusalem), 13 of which restrict Palestinian movements within the West Bank and not only into Israel. 11 checkpoints are located inside the city of Hebron. In addition, there are currently 17 checkpoints in the West Bank, which are occasionally staffed and hundreds of un‐staffed physical obstacles.6

@Ottomania - I think you're better off finding facts from other websites. I'm not discrediting the validity, only saying the site may have a lot of bias. As for usmarine, I don't think it was you, actually, but some people seem to think the Palestinians are doing a lot more wrong than the Israelis. Or that they do not deserve to exist - despite the fact that they were there, and have been there for centuries. It's a war, and each one fights with the means they have. Wars on impoverished nations create terrorism. Long lasting wars create terrorism. This war has been both.

Israel has the upper hand in many ways, yet they are unwilling to put in effort to stop the actual terrorist groups from forming, but much rather cut of the many heads of these organizations. It feels to me like they prefer to have a war against a smaller enemy, from which they can benefit both in the eyes of the USA and with monetary means. It's not like Israel has lost many.

I'm not saying that terrorism is right, valid or the right thing. I'm not saying numbers are sufficient to define what terrorism is doing to Israel. But some politician somewhere in Israel is keeping them from being "the bigger man", and digging out terrorism at its roots. They're really rich, have tons of resources at their fingertips, but would rather kill 50 civilians and have one terrorist among them, than do deeper operations that destroy actual terrorist groups from the inside, and perhaps lose one man in the process.

Obviously your men will always be worth more to you, but it would be nice to see a selfless act from Israel for a change, instead of the self-absorbed image they have created thus far.

The "Jews" aren't hated for being Jewish. They're hated for invading others' territory.
Islamic culture has a history of gretaer tolerance than any Western one. Look at Baghdad as far back as the 800s. But we digress. THe arabs would have no problem with Israel if it satyed put and stopped bulding.

However, Israel wants to expand into the Mesopotamian axis. Thus, arabs are forced to fight them.

The Oslo accords were created to stop that problem. However, no party is accepting them anymore.

Moreover, if Israel wants my sympathy, they should stop ATTACKING. "Attack is the best defense" is an outdated dogma.

A big part of the dislike of Israel in that region is because they are Jewish. They associate Jews with Israel.

So since you said that... Should we nuke Saudi Arabia, Yemen and Afghanistan when those two buildings fell?

Owned by Britain, given to the Jews to own as per what the UN passed in 1949. Stop bitching. It was British territory, they can do whatever the fuck they wanted.

You and explicitly implied  that the reason behind the hate is not the land stealing but it's because they are jews. If you would have read some of the story from 1850 when the jews from immigrated to Palestine you would know that it's bullshit. Jews where treated very well only when the Palestinians found out the Zionism real intentions of stealing their land. At that time they become aggressive like any other people would do.

Stealing land from some one who stole it in the first place is wrong. Kind of late learning the moral of stealing.
