Thread Name: Palestine (continuation)
Subject: RE: Palestine (continuation)
"Why does that make me ridiculous?"
Here's why
"Israel's case is that there were no "murders" on the Marmara."
One more time - I have never at any time condoned the the use of rockets on Israel - show me where I have.
I have said that I believe they are an inevitable consequence of a conflict caused by the oppression of a powerful state on a weak and defencless Third World people in order to expand its territory.
My stance on this matter is a humanitarian one - I support neither Israili Zionism (as you do) nor Muslim extremism - I have always argued that religion in any shape or form should never be an influencing factor in the running of any country - my statement exactly:
"As far as I'm concerned, all such states can go to their own chosen hell in a handcart, as long as they don't take the rest of us with them"
Now perhaps you can tell us where I have ever at any time advocated the use of weaponry of any sort on civilians - quoting another member of this forum who says he disagrees with me (I can't see any wide discrepancy between his argument and mine) is no proof of anything other than we might disagree on some things, nothing more.
