It's funny how the news don't mention the thousands of innocent people dying in Gaza and Palestine but only 12 in Isreal. The news, politics, Barack Obama, Starbucks, coca cola etc Are all too far up Israel's ass to say sh*t!!!

When you say thousands, you mean 40, around half of whom are terrorists eliminated by the IDF because they pose a direct threat to Israeli citizens. n the other hand, the 3 Israelis killed were all civilians, none of whom posed any threat, either to the people of Gaza, or Hamas. These Israeli civilians are not living on occupied land, nor are their homes being used to store weapons. Also, far more Israelis would have been killed had Israel not spent hundreds of millions of dollars developing a state-of-the-art missile defense system.
I think you have to remember, yes the Arab countries have been responsible for starting some of the mains wars, but you can't forget the fact that Israel did take most of their country away from them and have refused to give back the land they took before 1948 even though the UN told them to give back the land and have had international pressures. Not to mention the conditions Gaza and West Bank are under.
But didn't Israel initiate the 6 day war? I didn't read of the wars between the 1948 and 1967 wars but the 6 day war sounds like it was Israel's fault.
It doesn't sound too good when Israel sounds like the aggressor even in Western News.
Is there proof the likes of Osama bin Laden care not of Palestine? What about the other Arab countries-do they actually care (Jordan's massacre of the Palestinian Muslims comes to mind).
I'm trying to do a certain degree of History but this is more a Business and Politics question. How it has affected USA and Israel e.g. economies,oil,etc.
While yes, Israel did start it, the act was a preemptive strike. they knew other countries were going to attack them, so they struck first. the war was inevitable, it was the first was simply launched by Israel rather than their enemies. and, if you ask me, saying Israel is the nation that is wrong is like saying communism does not take away peoples' dreams. who knew the color red could cause so much pain?
(p.s. if your wondering why I spelled color differently, it is because I am American. (and proud!))
In the beginning, Palestine were probably the proverbial protagonist, since they were forced off their land. Unfortunately, that was a generation ago and now there are no good guys and there is no right answer to the issue.
The bad guys are the men who fight for power. The good guys are the innocent children. Let me tell you the truth, if the Palestinians and the Israelis swapped sides the Palestinians would have just like Israelis abused the weaker side.
So I would think Israel is not the bad guy but still does some bad things on the other side palestine people has been killing a lot of jews recently and the jews rightfully got the land after the war as the arab countries was moving there armys to the border of israel and israel took the opportunity to assault the arabs first and I would say the jews should be able to keep some land due to them fighting for this land and I feel like most people just look at the bad things israel did and never seen anything the bad things palestinians did to the jews so my opinion in that palestine should not be independent and I hope they never do have independence after the things they did to the jews.
