Israel, by its attacks on Gaza, has created hundreds, if not thousands, of terrorists. Not my words but those of Paddy Pantsdown. Jesus, at last a politician of any colour who has the temerity to call Israel's actions disproportionate, indiscriminate and foolish. Paddy's always been a bit of a twat but kudos to the man for this. I suppose he doesn't have to worry about any Israel lobby breathing down his neck these days.

The Israeli economy is booming, as can be seen from the comments of a very wide variety of sources and experts (which John Kerry and many others should read and recognize):

• "Technology companies and global investors are beating a path to Israel and finding unique combinations of audacity, creativity, and drive everywhere they look. Which may explain why, in addition to boasting the highest density of start-ups in the world (a total of more than 3,850 start-ups one for every 1,844 Israelis) more Israeli companies are listed on the NASDAQ exchange than all companies from the entire European continent." – Dan Senor and Saul Singer

• "Israel, the land of milk and honey, is now also the home of business success, opportunity and major growth." – Hedge Fund Billionaire Henry Swieca

• "If you're going to the Middle East to look for oil, you can skip Israel. However, if you're looking for brains, look no further. [Israel] has a disproportionate amount of brains and energy." – Warren Buffet

• "[Israel is] the most important high-tech center in the world after the US." – Eric Schmidt

• "Tel Aviv has been named the second best place in the world in which to launch a high-tech startup company." – Viva Sarah Press

• "Israel has an enormous cash reserve of some $80 billion." – Hezi Sternlicht

• "Science and technology in Israel is one of the country's most highly developed and industrialized sectors. The percentage of Israelis engaged in scientific and technological inquiry, and the amount spent on research and development (R&D) in relation to gross domestic product (GDP), is amongst the highest in the world." – InvestInIsrael.gov

• "So why Tel Aviv? The city is overflowing with software developers and venture capital. Larger companies, including Google, have set up offices there. Facebook is now there, too, after acquiring facial-recognition developer Face.com in June." – Bloomberg.com

• "The Israeli startup scene needs little introduction. Tel Aviv is rapidly becoming one of the most innovative tech hubs on the planet, vying with London, New York and Berlin as Silicon Valley's second." – Monty Munford

• "Israel has a highly educated entrepreneurial community (40% with Masters/PhD vs. 42% in Silicon Valley)." – Zack Miller

• "From VC funds to conglomerates, foreign government partners to a smart international workforce, Israel has it all." – Ron Hershco, Brooklyn & Israel financier

• "Swiss research institute IMD releases World Competitiveness Yearbook, ranks Bank of Israel first among world's central banks." — Olga Viniar

• "It should be noted that Israel's ranking first in terms of the market's durability in the face of crises is the direct result of the Treasury and the Bank of Israel's actions, which withstood the pressures and did not pump funds into failing organizations and financial systems as the US and Europe did." – Uriel Linn

• "Israel is good at creating international cooperation for funding in the R&D programs they establish. And they provide a great ROI when done correctly." – Ann Liebschutz

• "Israel has one of the world's fastest growing developed economies." – Moital.gov.il

• "Israel's output growth remains relatively strong, unemployment is at historically low levels, its high-tech sector continues to attract international admiration, and new off-shore gas fields have come on stream." – 2013 Israel Economic Survey

• "We find ourselves in an age when both data is bursting forth via the Internet, and the economy continues to become more globalized than ever. For us it is a challenge, but even more, it is an opportunity." – Benjamin Netanyahu

• "Steve Ballmer [Microsoft's CEO] calls Microsoft as much an Israeli company as an American company, because of the importance of its Israeli technologies. Google, Cisco, Intel, Microsoft, eBay…live and die by the work of [their] Israeli teams…. Israel, a tiny nation of immigrants torn by war, has managed to become the first technology nation…." – Wall Street Journal

No matter what detractors of the Jewish people there have been throughout history, the Jewish people have survived. The economy of Israel will continue to thrive and grow – and when there is a will, there is a way. Indeed, as my mother used to say: "This too shall pass."

Naturally, minnow, as an antisemite yourself you are confusing criticism of "Jewish people" (which you will not hear on this forum) with criticism of the actions of the Israeli regime (which, I'm proud to say, you will hear quite a lot of). If you can't see the difference, which patently you can't, then you are beyond help (which we know anyway). As an aside to your litany apropos of how well Israel is doing (and good luck to Israel for that), bear in mind (if you have a mind: you have this tendency to quote an awful lot of other people's minds, I find...) that Israel's healthy condition is largely predicated on favourable trade deals with the US and the EU, not to speak of having to spend very little on their military, as the US pays for that (about three billion per annum at last count). Not bad for a desert nation of about eight million. I hope you won't mind the inconvenience of having this stark reality thrust into your unseeing face, minnow. I fully expect any response (don't rush - I'm not bothered) to both ignore what I've said and to include extensive and unattributed quotes from God knows where you get your lies from. Nighty night. Don't let the truth bite.

Just since 2001, Israel's GDP has grown 1,000 percent and its economy is now larger than Egypt's economy despite the fact that Egypt has 10 times Israel's population.

At the same time, the Palestinian Authority and Hamas have received billions of dollars in foreign aid and support. But instead of joining in Israel's modern economic boom and encouraging partnerships, the political leaders have clearly invested in rocket launchers and terror tunnels instead.

In other words, as Israel's economic success grows and the economic opportunities for Arabs in Israel grows, so, too, does the violent strategy of Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad.

And as long as politics trumps economics in the Middle East, there will never be peace.

Israel's economy is soaring—why isn't it bringing peace?

They have once again used chemical weapons in the form of white phosphorus in Gaza and have used chemical sprays to evict farmers from their lands - doesn't auger particularly well for a future ban on chemical weapons.

But with the Jews coming to build up and improve the land, hundreds of thousands more Arabs poured in to get the jobs and opportunities with the Jews that they could not get elsewhere in the Arab world.

And, according to all the economic lessons we have learned about jobs and harmony, there was peace.

For more than 40 years the Arabs and Jews worked together peacefully to drain malarial swamps, remove salt from the soil and plant millions of trees. The result was mandatory Palestine was able to absorb the massive increase in Arab and Jewish population that came into the area to join in the effort.

In the 1920's a larger industrial boom began to mirror the agricultural progress and the economic prosperity really started to become apparent.

So, naturally one would think that the peaceful co-operation between Arabs and Jews increased — or at least continued — as well.

But the opposite happened.

Just as mandatory Palestine began a 400-percent increase in businesses creation, a 1,000-percent increase in the number of jobs and 10,000-percent increase in capital investment, the peaceful co-existence between Jews and Arabs was shattered. After an anti-Jewish riot in Hebron in 1923, bloodshed became more and more common. And even though the economic progress and opportunity never ceased, peace has never really returned since.

Maybe you think that it's OK for rich countries with big armies to invest in weaponry but not for piss-poor nations under siege. I love your double standard. But, unlike Hamas, the Israeli regime doesn't have to make any big decisions about how to use their dough. It's all provided by you, the yanks, no questions asked, even when they're slaughtering kids with gay abandon.

The London Guardian reported Sunday that "The Israeli military is using flechette shells, which spray out thousands of tiny and potentially lethal metal darts, in its military operation in Gaza."[1] -- B'Tselem, the Israeli human rights organization, says that although these weapons are not banned per se, "other rules of humanitarian law render their use in the Gaza Strip illegal. -- One of the most fundamental principles is the obligation to distinguish between those who are involved and those who are not involved in the fighting, and to avoid to the extent possible injury to those who are not involved. -- Deriving from this principle is the prohibition of the use of an imprecise weapon which is likely to result in civilian injuries." -- The London Independent also wrote about Israel's use of flechettes.[2] -- So did the Belfast Telegraph, which also posted a graphic RT video showing wounded Palestinians and interviewing Mads Gilbert, a Norwegian doctor, who called Israeli attacks "immensely disproportionate."[3] -- A Google News search shows that discussion of their use also appeared in articles published in Israel, New Zealand, Canada, China, France, Lebanon, Iran, and Russia. -- We have only been able to locate one article published in U.S. media about the use of flechettes, published by Newsweek, where their use is presented as merely an unproven allegation.[4] ..
