if you took away israels weapons, what would happen? israel would be destroyed. take away the muslims weapons, and what would happen? there would be peace. muslims, in general, are uncivilised scum. israelis in general, are not uncivilised scum. don't even try to compare the two.
I agree in part.
At least as far as the Israelis goes. I've spent good time with Israelis, and I will never stop considering them as generally good people.
You seem to forget the issue here: Israel exists on a land that was stripped away from the Palestines in the late 40's.
In other words: The state of Israel has no legitimacy.
I would love to see 240 or Bust start to look into the Israel/Palestine situation. I'm sure he would find evidence that were too absurd to believe.
Israel has been conducting a systematic cleansing of Israel during the last 50 years, demolishing old Palestine villages and simply telling the Palestines to go fcuk off, and building kibbutzes or simply handing over the land to Israelis.
A huge injustice has been done.
I don't think it can be undone, but Israel needs to be divided into equal parts, one for Israelis, one for Palestines.
Or Israel needs to at the very least acknowledge all the inhabitants of Israel, both Arabs and Jews, as Israelis and allow the Palestines to vote.
For 50 years, the Palestine people have been treated like shit.
Naturally, you will see lots of Palestines eventually finding alternative ways of "getting even" (in their minds) with Israel.
Israel brought a lot of this onto themselves by the way they treated the Palestine people.
Be as it may, there still needs to be a solution today. Start by giving voting rights to all Israelis. And that includes the Palestines.
