Subject: RE: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
True enough and more than likely to happen as often as the Israelis feel the urge.
Whatever Israel has to contend with in the shape of (exremely primative) rocket attacks or whatever; the Palestinians have to contend with 100 times worse - if you think I am making it up compare the casualty figures (and the Israeis don't have to rebuild their homes, schools and hospitals after every 'neighbourly' visit or cope with seige conditions thanks to the blockade, checkpoints and Berlin-type wall).
I am tempted to take up your own technique ofr denbate and ask what France has to do with this debate, but let that pass.
Do I take sides - yes I do, but that has nothing to do with my criticism of Israel's genocidal behaviour.
Do I say the rocket attacks are wrong -I have said what I believe in terms of killing people - do I believe they are any more wrong than what the Israeli's do to the Palestinian population; men, women, children, young, old - they don't discriminate - certainly not - pinpricks compared to chemical weapon attacks, et al.
I'll do a deal with you; I'll say they are wrong if you withdraw your supporyt for Israeli fascism, British massacres in Derry and violence-provoking marchers throughout the six counties - or anywhere else.
