The non-terrorist supporting Palestinians suffer because of their leaders along with the pro-terrorist Palestinians. I never said they all want to exterminate us, just that they would vote in a pro-genocide government, just like they elected the pro-genocide government of Hamas.

I didn't say the Palestinians were doing an impressive job of making war on Israel, just that they choose to do so. And by your analogy, it would be more like the "resistance fighters" were demaning that the Germans leave Germany. Plus I don't remember any official groups declaring their intention to exterminate the Germans. Hamas's charter doesn't just say that they want to beat Israel, it says that they want to exterminate the Jews. Oh, please, the old "was it a literal day?" guff? Let me guess, you are a creationist, as well as all your other irrational beliefs. All living things on Earth bear the types of imperfections, differences, and similarities that you'd expect from systems that evolved through mutation and natural selection. Imperfections, differences, and similarities that you wouldn't expect from even the most incompetent designer.

If the Lebanese didn't want to be invaded by Israel, then they shouldn't have sent terrorists to attack Israel.

Us make faulty arguments? Nice Joke. And no, the Arabs weren't at fault seeing as it was the Israelis who started the 1967 war, not the Arabs. Every story has been one act of Israeli aggression after another. And when you say identified as terrorists, I suppose the IDF carried out a full independent investigation with experts going through all the data and they allowed the UN to verify it? No? The figures you give are so different from the ones we got from Palestinian doctors (the people that actually witnessed seeing dead people) that it's laughable. And killing 1,300 people out of a population of 1.5 million would be the equivalent of killing 260,000 US citizens in a 27 day period if this happened to the US. And it was the IDF who invented the use of Human Shields, something that is well-documented unlike the baseless accusations against Hamas. I suppose most of the allegations you make are just you looking in the mirror.

Hey, you guys keep making the same faulty arguments, my responses change when your arguments change. When you say 2+2=7, I say, "no 2+2=4". If you get it wrong again, then my response is still "2+2=4". The question is the same so the answer is the same. But you are getting the analogy. The analogy works just fine. The Japanese were at fault and were the aggressors, the Arabs are at fault and are the aggressors. When I said "identified terrorists" I didn't mean merely "determined that he was a terrorist" I mean people whose names and identities have been confirmed and who are known members of terrorist organizations. There are also about 300 confirmed civilian dead (89 of whom were children and 49 of whom were women). There were 162 who were "Arab and male" and not children who have not been identified as to whether they were civilians or terrorists. And no, when 10,000 soldiers with tanks, fully automatic weapons, fighter jets, attack helicopters, artillery pieces, etc. go into a heavily populated area to commit a massacre over 27 days, the casualties are in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions. Figure a 12 hour fighting day, each soldier killing one person every two hours (sounds pretty conservative actually) and you are looking at over 1.5 million dead. So no, what happened in Gaza was an extremely well targeted attack against terrorists who surround themselves with human shields to maximize civilian casualties. Sorry, but even the Geneva Conventions are clear that you are allowed to attack an enemy's military targets even if the enemy puts civilians around them.

Here's an excerpt from Israel's declaration of independence. ***** …Accordingly we, members of the People's Council, representatives of the Jewish Community of Eretz-Israel and the Zionist movement, are here assembled on the day of the termination of the British mandate over Eretz-Israel and, by virtue of our natural and historic right and on the strength of the resolution of the United Nations General Assembly, hereby declare the establishment of a Jewish State in Eretz-Israel, to be known as the State of Israel..

Don't you get tired of using the same arguments over and over again, most of which don't make any sense whatsoever? Seeing as the Japanese were at fault and were the aggressors, there is a slight difference between them and the Palestinians. 1300 people killed in 27 days is nothing short of a massacre. And how exactly do you identify a person as a terrorist – being Arab and a male I suspect?

You'd better hope not. The Palestinians hate America as much or more than Israel. You want them to take over and start smuggling nukes into American cities?
