		<description>Of course we have only the IDF&#039;s word for the number of &quot;terrorists&quot; killed.  And the IDF has a habit of calling anyone  killed by them, ipso facto, a &quot;terrorist&quot;.  So while it might be interesting to come up with alternative numbers, they will mean nothing.

 What the testimony proves, and is reconfirmed by the massive destruction the IDF caused, is that the IDF planned  and executed an offensive in Gaza meant to destroy large swaths of civilian homes and infrastucture there was both a collective punishment and  a callous exercise in improving military positions or a possible future incursion.  This created  highly significant damage to civilians, and to claim that this damage was &quot;mild&quot;  is to be totally blinkered to reality.

 It was also shown that the IDF fostered a callous disregard for civilians and clearly ranked the safety of IDF soldiers much higher than concern for innocent civilians.</description>

		<description>How? Because there weren&#039;t any.  Despite the lies and propaganda of the Palestinians, by any objective measure, the Israeli response was milder and less proportionally damaging to civilians than would be expected of a country in its position. Do you have an example of a similar attack on an urban terrorist center by any country that had a lower ratio of civilians killed to terrorists killed?</description>

		<description>BTW Jake,  the clown from Jerusalem,&#039;

It turns out your little link shows a picture of road signs in Saudi Arabia, not  Gaza or  Ramallah.

You just can&#039;t help soiling yourself can you Jake?</description>

		<description>How many Jews want to go into Gaza?

I laugh when I hear about complaining abotu the poor peolpepof Sderot.  I wonder how many of those people would swap with those in Gaza?

Proves nothing.  Most likely a doctored picture.</description>

		<description>Peace begins with a peace treaty. All that begins with a ceasefire with Hamas is new and upgraded terrorist attacks.    Hamas broke the ceasefire from the beginning. June 19th, ceasefire starts, June 24th Palestinians fire rockets at Israel.    Meanwhile, the problem remains, what good is a ceasefire? All it means is that the Palestinians get ready for deadlier attacks.    Menachem Begin never said that. You posted a lie with a lie about the source. The Begin quote was made up after the year 2000. As I demonstrated, anyone can make up a quote and lie about the source. I cited a quote from the same publication in the same year (New Statesman, 1982 ) in which you, Shingo, supposedly admitted the bestiality and that your mother is a whore. The Begin quote and your confession to being a deviant pervert, and their sources were made up. Do you really want to say that made up citations to that publication are legitimate sources of information, since that means that people should believe that you are a goat-blowing son of a whore. Are you actually saying that people should believe you are a goat-blowing son of a whore, just because someone made up a quote and lied about the source of it?    BTW, Muslim and Arab massacres of Jews, just a few examples:  &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1929_Hebron_massacre&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1929_Hebron_massacre&lt;/a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1929_Hebron_massacre&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  &lt;a href=&quot;http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:5VvzBKS3zj8J:answers.yahoo.com/question/index%3Fqid%3D20090629015956AAupqWy+massacre+jews+in+Palestine+%2219th+century%22&amp;cd=3&amp;hl=en&amp;ct=clnk&amp;gl=us&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:5VvzBKS3zj8J:...&lt;/a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://74.125.47.132/search?q=cache:5VvzBKS3zj8J:...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;    </description>

		<description>The Palestinians owned 50% of the land and Jews only 7% as was the case fo emany centuries.    They owned the land before the exitence of the  Ottoman Empire, though the so lcalled Jewish deeds of purchase by Jews from the Ottoman empire are frauulent.    The Palestinians didn&#039;t massacre anyone.    Tzipi Livni told the world that peace is not in Israel&#039;s strategic interest. Peace begins with a ceasfire.    Israel&#039;s option.  2 states or a single state where they are already a minority.   Israel becomes flooded with Palestinians and Israelis Jews start to leave the country.  Presto, no more Israel.    Hamas stuck to the ceasefire for 4 months before Israel broke it, even though Israel failed to honor it from day 1.  Israel talks about it&#039;s success disrupting their terrorist operations, but this is unverified propaganda.    You are a pathetic liar and a right wing hack.  Mehchem Begin told the world that Jews were the master race and that exemplifies the attitude of Israel.  It believes it is above the law and that all othe rpopulations and states are human excrement and it&#039;s slaves.           </description>

		<description>There are no Arab only roads, but there are definitely Israeli only roads which divide the West Bank into 3 non contiguosu regions.  Just like Nazi Germany.  </description>

		<description>Israel vilated Oslo from day 1, so it is menaingless to blame Arafat for failingn to fulfil commitments.  By the time Abbas was on the scene, Israel has thrown Oslo away altogether.    911 has eveything to do with US support for Israel, which Bin Landen told us.     Batak Obama does not call himself Hussein. Only islamophobes and right wing racist biggots ignore his first name.    US Arab relations have already improved ten fold since Obama&#039;s speech in Cairo.    Poor Jake continues to soil himself in public. It must be so embarassing for his family.    </description>

		<description>Israel has no strategic value.  Isrlea&#039;s technology is US technology.  Military is based on what the US gives to it.     Bin Laden cited Israel for 911.  It is completely appropriate.   </description>
