Subject: RE: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
"You are so gullible" Once again you are claiming neutrality and taking sides, as you did when you distorted the effects of phosphorus on civilians. The weapons you are describing are new additions to the Palestinians meagre arsenal and are still piss-poor in comarison with what the Israelis have at their disposal. I doubt if it is coincidence that the Israelis have announced that they are willing to re-open negotiations within two weeks - a combination of the effects of their massive own-gaol over the piracy and the fact that Palestinian opposition appears to be increasing and becoming more efficient. This continues to be a David and Goliath (ironic that) fight with poorly equipped Palestinians faced with a heavily armed enemy using sophisticated weapons, tanks and planes, who are happy to target homes hospitals, schools and civilians in general. The Israelis continue to be the aggressor in this conflict and are recognised as such throughout the world. The reports of Israeli settlers taking over Palestinian homes and property continue, almost on a daily basis. The Palestinians are the victims who are entitled to show resistance. Compare the casualty figures in this conflict if you have any doubts. Jim Carroll
