And add to that, that the Basic Law of Human Dignity and Liberty basically violates itself (" target="_blank">http://www.servat.unibe.ch/law/icl/is12000_.html)... "Section 8 Violation of rights There shall be no violation of rights under this Basic Law except by a Law fitting the values of the State of Israel, designed for a proper purpose, and to an extent no greater than required or by such a law enacted with explicit authorization therein."

If she was being honest maybe she'd tell you how violated she felt by this "excessive" violence. Maybe she'd tell you, that even though she's well trained and have inhaled gas before, on a weekly basis, this time she couldn't shake the thought that she was dying as she ran to find a place that had fresh air.

Yes, I'm very worried about this as well. The protests don't get mentioned at all in israeli media unless someone dies. To see it on FOX of all networks… it's a head trip. It's strange they were on the Palestinian side, to begin with. and even stranger that the army didn't know (when they bring the media, they tone it down tremendously- that's how we know)

You're right. We're not "peace activists", we're "freedom fighters". "peace" would imply that there are two equal forces here. We were unarmed, we opened a gate, two of my friends arrested and after I was skunk juiced, they fired over 80 gas grenades into a panicked and dense crowd. Is that's the best commentary you can dish out on the most biassed network on satellite?

So true Annie, These propaghandists seem to have missed the part about enthnic cleasing requiring one ethnic group removing another. In the case of dismantling the settlements, it would only take place if the Israeli government agreed and would thus be conducted by Israel, not the Palestinians. Jews forcing Jews to leave by definition is not enthnic cleasing. We keep being reminded that Isrle unilaterally widrew from Gaza, so this would be another unilteral withdrawl.

eitan, You keep repeating the same line that you disagree with oposing arguments, but have failed to provide a counter agrument, other than to say you don't agree. The fence already cuts into Paelstinian land, and from the Israeli prespective, gives access to land that does not belong to Israel.

Actually I consider you an idiot 'Ismail' because you didn't get that, but heck: whatever makes you happy.

He doesn't believe that – but he thinks if he post it that somebody else just might., And they told me that the jews were smart…

I wonder if that's what you'll be saying when Israel is shunned and broke and at the mercy of 1.5 billion Muslims. That will be most interesting…

For a time you will cling to Palestinian land – and then you will be removed kicking and screaming as fanatics will do – and then there will be peace.
