After lurking here for quite some time, and reading several thousand OPs, one thing is as clear as water from the Kakwa.
Slayer, Neo and a few others have a good handle on whats really up.

So once again you are admitting to letting others control your train of thought. If that's the case, please list some of the content in this thread that these members have contributed that you agree with and why, or some of the content of mine that you disagree with.
This isn't a cheer leading contest dude and trust me not everyone agrees with them as most the people in this thread actually disagree with them and have completely countered their arguments with facts and logic (feel free to dispute any of them).
You would have actually realized this if you bothered reading the thread.
As for your personal attack based on my avatar...

The Israeli state appears to believe that might is right.....that empathy is weakness. They are wrong - it is the opposite that is true.

Reading the posts between you and humanity4ever reminds me of the conversations between Ivan and Satan in the brothers' karamazov
You're too obvious to the intelligent/honest posters here, corruption.
Would you admit that you're trying to equate the extreme minority of Jewish/Israeli extremists to Islamist extremists? The numbers are gargantuan in difference. One side has at most 10,000 or so supporters (usually of the late rabbi kahanes policies), while the latter has supporters in the millions. Pretty much the entire Gaza strip, a large portion of the west bank, Egypt etc.
You never temper your posts with any fairness - obviously following saul alinsky's directive that to 'qualify' your argument is to lend support to your opponents.
You're not an honest debater. You're a propagandist, who, as superman2012 flippantly mentioned, works in the propaganda office of the Canadian Secret Intelligence Service (CSIS).

In an idealistic sense, you are right.
Unfortunately, it would be suicide to empathize with an entity that seeks your annihilation, and I'm referring to the militants in control of Gaza, not the innocent civilians.
Hamas will not respond to empathy or diplomacy, they are empowered by it. The only alternative is for Israel to respond with force until Hamas capitulates.

Why is it that anyone who criticises the Israeli state's actions are automatically tarred as Israel haters and lovers of violence directed toward that state? That is NOT what any of this is about. This is about mutual respect and for the right of all people to be afforded a decent and free life.
