Personally, I think the majority of the Iranian people have inhaled too much sand. It affects how they think. I also think war between Iran and the US/Israel is inevitable. Knowing it will happen one day anyway, the sooner we get it over with the better. Go Israel!

Why not send these Palestinians to the West Bank or Jordan? And why is Egypt or Lebanon not helping Gaza?

You can''t kill thousands of women and children, take land and keep food and medicine from people and expect them not to fight back.

Boycott Israel and the US.

At first, I did not care much about the Muslims moving into our neighborhood until they decided to build a mosque in his backyard without permits. Then threaten the local officials when asked to remove it. Of course he is in jail and facing deportation along with his family.
There should be a clear explanation of what %u2018Freedom of Religion %u2018 really means to these immigrants. When they first came here back in the late %u201850s they were more than happy to burn their robes and the Koran to be an American with Arab descent.
Now, we have these uneducated immigrants that do not want to learn the English languish or assimilate into the culture and customs of the country they want to be in.
Yes, these moderate Muslims should stay in their Muslim country with their Muslim ways, don%u2019t bring it here and make us accept it. We don%u2019t need it here.

The reason Hamas started firing rockets is that the Israeli government has been blockading Gaza since 2005. And have taken Palestinian land for 60 years. And created an apartheid system in Israel. What would Jesus do?

Where were these protesters when Hamas started shooting missles at Israel?

Where were these protesters when peace talks were being undermined by Hamas'' refusal to deal with Israel?

Where were these protesters when President Amadinejad said there were no homosexuals in Iran?

Where were these protesters when the Ayatollah began a crackdown on moderate candidates and office holders in Iran and allowed religious police to arrest individuals who violate religious laws and punish them publicly.

["It is very important for us to fulfill our humanitarian duties towards the defenseless people in Gaza and Palestine," said Ahmadinejad. ]

why aren''t they getting help from those that were firing the rockets?

after all, they seem like such courageous warriors firing a missile blindly ... not having any idea where it will land ... and who it will affect.

=====================

So what are you referring to ...the Bible, Koran, Talmud, Torah? They are all used to justify actions, more often killing of non-believers and others than not.
