Just in this evening in Afula (the closest city to me, pretty small and quiet one) two or even three people were stabbed. 20 year old soldier coming back home from the army got stabbed+ in those momments i got updated on another stabbing in Afula, no details yet (19:51).
In the afternoon (15:56) a man got stabbed near Kiryat Arba .
Female stabbed near IDF Headquarters in Tel Aviv (15:05). (The stabber was given work permission and used it to go on a rampage and stab her and few bystanders with a screw driver, got neutralized by an IDF officer who was on his way home).
One stabbed in Jerusalem, lightly wounded. (12:23).
And there are a lot more lately. And those do not include stones thrown on buses and cars all over the county injuring dozens.
Tell me how many of you heard about all those cases?
We give them work and they stab us back. We send them irrigation pipes and they turn them into rockets. We send them building materials and they use them to build terror tunnels under our homes.
How do you feel about illegal settlements, illegal occupation and the long term effects of occupation on a populace that is being confined to a shrinking geographic area? How do you feel about a two state solution?
When they will start behaving like a state and not like a terror organisation i am sure they will get what they will be deserved, but right now they do not deserve any more than they get, and they got alot! (you just don't hear about it through media).
about illegal settlements: 90% of Palestinian settlements are against any law, the fact that they get water and electricity is because the Israeli government decided to build them those infer structures. they get electricity and clear water from Israel. A state should be able to produce those or at least have money to buy from others, they do not have the capability to produce any thing valuable other then sympathy from naive people. And the money (they get from funding of course, they do not produce any thing by themselves) , goes to funding their "struggle".
Let me put it this way: If the USA will shoot rockets over Canada, what do you think Canada will do? Im sure Canada wont stand and suffer.
Israel is actually standing and suffering, only because we can, we can defend our citizens, they hide behind theirs and send them to die and then accusing our soldiers, yes!, our soldiers of killing them to protect our citizens.
Come to Israel and i will take you to a place where children study in a bomb shelter, i will take you to meet guys who instead of having fun in college are recovering from stabs and bullet wounds. f*ck it, I will take you to meet a son of my grandparents friends who lost his friend and both of his legs when he went to fix the electricity after a rocket fell near a kinder garden.
This is f*cked up, and what that is more f*cked up is you for example and others judging the situation from your calm,bomb free homes.
What happened in France is unfortunately just the beginning, please wake up because it is already too late.
I asked some relevant and valid questions for you to answer and you call me a f*ck up? You're obviously unable to discuss them in a calm,polite and friendly manner so I'll leave it. Just for the record, I lived in Israel for 3 years, you don't have to show me a thing.
Neither side has a monopoly on goodness or evil. Instead of concentrating on the differences between the two sides and who is most to blame it might be more helpful to work towards common goals, like teaching our children not to hate others who are not like them. If each side only compiles statistics concerning how the other side has hurt them they will only give more people reasons to hate and kill each other. An eye for an eye will eventually lead to a whole world that is blind. It's easy to find reasons to hate. It's more difficult, but also more productive to find reasons and ways to forgive and be reconciled with our enemies. Forgiveness and reconciliation benefit both those being forgiven AND those who forgive. Forgiveness and mercy are not a sign of stupidity or weakness. They are the ultimate demonstration of strength.
Hating people and banging your head against a wall both have something in common: It really feels good when you stop doing it.
Israelis also like killing brits Tom Hurndall and Ian Cook to name a few, people who went out there to help people living in danger of the IDF killed by the IDF. Destroying UN property and resources is another favorite. Having lived in the middle east for a large part of my life, I can also confirm the people of Israel are far less receiving towards foreigners than their neighbours, even foreign children will be mistreated by the local kids. Gaza is basically Auschwitz Nice propaganda tho. Kid throws a stone, you decide a fair retaliation is to drop a bomb on their game of football after school. You dont allow aid to enter by sea (and actually attack aid ships) but that wouldnt be the first boat attack.... ahem You control the fishing when people are starving. So away with yer propaganda will ye, go and ride yer fancy bike, stay off the "poor little me" drugs you're on and pass the bike or the drugs to your neighbours who actually look like the people native to the land. Not just a bunch of European Immigrants claiming "rights" Peace!

No matter how much observed truth you show to Israelis and their brainwashed followers, they will find some way to allow the mental gymnastics to cloud their better judgement.
