    Elections have consequences, they should have thought of that before they voted.

    The parents had a choice, the children didn't.

    So it's time for Israel to find its own way in the world without US support.
    So do crimes like that. Israel has been coddled, protected from the consequences of its behavior, for too long.

    I don't think it would matter much longer any way.

    The USA and The UK are in such a hole, that soon they will barely be able to support it's own.

    yeah the party that loses leaves power.
    So they should have voted for a corrupt party that sells them out? I know you feel all palestinians deserve to die because they want their rights but voting for a party that said they would secure them is no reason to kill children.

    All actions have consequences. Funny how you think jews and Israel shouldn't suffer them.

    I know you lack the humanity to care but what you support and go yeah about is quite simply the worst crimes a person can commit.

    Your dealing with someone who thinks the palestinians deserve to die for having the balls to stand up for them selves you think a simple moral truth like that is going to sway him?

    I'm sure that you also believe 9/11 attacks were thus justified consequences. You know OBL uses democracy as a argument against attacking 'innocent Americans' :shrug:

    Peace be unto you

    Can I ask, do you consider Palestinians to be human beings?

    Looks to me like the point the Israeli guy is trying to make is that the Palestinian children are suffering because their parents are perpetuating a war from within their own midst. Does a pretty crap job of getting the point across, though. As for spidergoat, please tell me you don't think the kids actually deserve to suffer for whatever the parents are doing. Say it ain't so!

    If the society deserves to suffer, then the kids will too. It's not as if the Israelis are condoning murder, just the limitation of goods to the terrorist regime and it's citizens.

    Yes it is.

    Murder and worse.

    We should cease protecting them from the consequences of such behavior.

    I point to the level of reasoning and argument visible throughout the defenders of Israel's behavior, and rest my case.

    One can easily say the same thing about any sanctions, such as with Iran. Will the economy and therefore the children suffer? Probably.

    If so, the same moral judgment would apply.

    In particular, if the Iranians were herded into reservation areas and fenced in, enabling enforcement of the sanctions and freeing up land, water, other resources, for the imposer of the sanctions, then the equivalent moral judgment would seem reasonable.

    But Israel has a unique record of action here, and has lost its moral standing more or less completely. It cannot survive like this in any admirable, or even supportable, form. Time to find out which way it is going to choose.
