I am not a muslim or a jew but as a physician and a grand father I am deeply troubled by the Zionist Holocaust in Palestine and the western justification and defense of a rouge state illegally! formed in by U N. with no concern or consultation with the people of the land. the British who have messed up where ever they set foot promised the Palestinians to protect their interest, have conveniently forgotten their promise and armed the the Israelis to the teeth including nuclear weapons. U S A has now taken the roll of Economic colonialism and Britain acts as a poodle. U S A and Israel are above international law human rights and U N resolution e.g. Abu Gharib Guantanamo and U S A invasion of Vietnam and Iraq under false pretext.
when you are powerful stupid ignorant and arrogant you can do whatever you want, except against the holy grail, Israel.

I am a Christian trying to warn my church not to get into the evangelical movement of supporting Isreal. This is heavy on my heart daily, to the point that I just don't know where to turn. I really need to be in a support group or something, so I can get involved in some way of helping people understand. I would love to talk to anyone, just to keep my sanity. I'm really starting to wonder "where is god in all this suffering in the world."

Before we blame them lets look at our selves
We have two major problems one is that our Arab leaders in the region are in a deep sleep and are still thriving to live in a nice palace, drive a luxury car and eat the best food while sustaining a position acceptable by the west. Lets not blame the west as they didn؟t twist anyone؟s arms to be a robotic mechanism serving them.. The second problem is that Abbas and Haniah need to put their differences aside and work on the issues together in a united front and not be divided as they face a an enemy backed by high powered country؟s if not the most powerful in the world and give the civilians a chance to prosper and live a normal life and stop the suffering of the Palestinian people.

I have watched this massacre go on in escalated fashion for several days now. A little while back, I read that the Israeli government had threatened to kill and create a "holocaust" on the Palestinian people.

This was remarkable for the use of "holocaust" by an Israeli since the word has been so captive to the Jews.

It is a very powerless place to watch this. Sarah Rashed Belletto (San Rafael, CA)

Dialog is the only way out.
I'm Jewish and I'm a bit surprised that you address the West to point out the crimes they have committed against Jews for 2,000 years.
I also recognize that more Jews have dies in Christian hands than in Muslim hands.
I only write here because I do know that Arabs and Muslims are honest and can take an argument and analyze it logically (Algebra is only one of your contributions), but I cannot understand the irrational hatred spilled in the comments posted here. So please help me understand it. Here are the facts:
1. Let's not forget that life didn't begin in 1967. In 1948 Israel accepted a partition and the Palestinians didn't. Acts of terror in Israel and abroad (plane hijacking, bombs in Israeli cities, etc.) were common even before Israel occupied the West Bank and Gaza.
2. Israel returned Sinai to Egypt in exchange for...peace! This after being attacked 3 times with the clear intention to destroy it. Doesn't it say something about the "expansionist" tendencies of Israel?
3. Israel pulled out of Gaza and the result was the intensification of rocket launching. This experience will probably leave Israelis with little hope regarding peace. And this is after Israel turned 8,000 of its own people into refugees. The pullout from Lebanon was not a good experience either.
4. Before that, Israel entered into the Oslo negotiations to return land conquered in 1967. Things got to a point where 97% of the land was not enough. I don't know of any country that lost a war that demanded all the land back after trying to destroy another country (read your own comments here).
5. Talking about precedents, the UN recognized as refugees anyone that lived in the land for 2 years (totally unprecedented) and the descendants of refugees have never been considered refugees (Ditto).

If there is going to be peace among "cousins" this will happen when we educate our children on it. I for one, don't let my children talk bad about Arabs or Muslims. My parents were born in Syria, and although some of my relatives became refugees after 1948, Israel absorbed them, so I'm not bitter about it, but every coin has two sides, for G's sake, don't forget that.

You are an honest people. Do you prepare your children for peace?

My blood boils with anger at the racist genocide being committed against the people of Gaza. What angers me more is the silence and "excuse industry" that exists in britain where I live. It is true that this borne out of guilt, 99% of all brutality against the Jewish people has been carried out by white european christians. They seek to shift that guilt onto those who historically neve never done any harm to the Jewish people.
They talk about the nazis but they are quite happy to let the zionist nazis carry out their racist campaign of murder against the children of Palestine.
But like the nazis its the same old propaganda line of "blame the victim"

to Saleh Mansour- May God be with you. Not all Americans support Israel. There will be no peace in the Middle East until the Palestinians are given back their homeland. I am a Christian and I pray everyday for the deinfranchized Palestinian people.

May I suggest the following web site? www.sweetliberty.org, under search, please enter, "Benjamin Freedman speaks of Zionism"
Then judge for your self about "Zionism".
Can you tell me, If Israel is Americans ally, then "Where are the Israeli coalitions forces for Iraq"?
May I offer a answer? They are in Gaza shooting Palestinians,
like "Fish in a barrel"...
Anyone who supports "cluster bombs" , and "depleted uranium" bombs for the Zionist to kill "Arab people" will answer to
God...

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

What can I do to protest Israel's treatment of the Palestinians. I am a Christian living in a now Jewish run city. I would like to post something on the walkways here but am afraid of getting in trouble. Thank you and I pray for your people daily. God bless you! Teri

May Allah bless our heroic people in GAZA for standing and resisting the unlawful occupation of Palestine and refusing to kneel in front of all western pressure and the traitors among us, to give up their rights of independence,democracy and freedom. Inshallah One day Justice will prevail and our people will be victorious and NOT Puppets. FREE PALESTINE.

Hi,
Thanks for the artical, all you write is true, but belive me you are not going to get anywhere as long as you do not have the arab masses on the streets asking for their rights, as long as there is no arab unity,no western goverment is going to change the status quo.The answer to the Palestine problem is in Arab hands on the arab streets, it is not just a question of western blind support of Israel it is also what are the rest of the Arab Countries doing to support the Palestinen cause.

What should we do? We need years and years to restart and build a new well educated and cultured generation.

Posted by Anne Candlin on March 2, 2008 #30264

Everything you say is true, but most westerners remain ignorant of what really happened. We grew up being told the myths of Israel as a new socialist country for the "poor suffering Jews". It was only recently (5 yrs ago) that I learned the truth from some people who visited our peace group. It has taken me 5 yrs to fully learn and comprehend the extent of the vicious Israeli sytem and the collusion of the western media and governments. Since then I have visited Palestine and work hard to inform others.The whole thing is beyond belief, beyond humanity.The fight for Palestine is the fight for all human values against the corruption of the powerful of this world.

The necessity to debate this issue is pre-eminent; to save us from ourselves.
The taboo against such a debate eqates to a demise in our republic.

You receive a poor suffering guest at your home, generously offering him asylum , hospita;ity and shelter within it among your family members.

Profiting of your dumb human generosity, little by little he occupies your own home, then conspiring with unfriendly foreigners they force you out of it !!

You become a refugee,build a tent in front of what was your home and humbly suffer living therein. The robber watches you day and night,tries to give you a hell of life, but still he remains sleepless...

At last you surrender recognizing your home forced robbery , and beg its robber to let you live in as small as its kitchen,but even this poor request is rejected.

This is the Palestinian Nakba !!

Life will be difficult and impossible for both, unless Justice prevails.
