Today a Israeli settler dangled his own child from a 3rd story window threatening to drop him rather than be removed from Gaza.
A woman protesting the Gaza pullout is said to be in serious condition after setting herself on fire at a roadblock in southern Israel. Earlier, an Israeli settler allegedly killed three Palestinian workers in the West Bank. Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said the settler committed "Jewish terror." Security forces have warned that Sharon could be targeted by extremists. Israeli soldiers have been dragging upset Jews from homes, religious centers and even a nursery school. Residents in one area pinned stars of David on their T-shirts and called IDF soldiers Nazis. Wednesday was the first day of forcible evacuations from Gaza, following a two-day grace period during which settlers were given a chance to leave voluntarily. But some of the settlers are refusing to go quietly. In one case, settlers pushed large cinderblocks off a bridge and tried to torch a nearby Arab house. |

And it ain't just the ones in Israel... NY Jews threaten suicide Neve Dekalim Settlement - Members of a New York-based ultra-Orthodox Jewish movement were threatening to commit mass suicide on Wednesday in protest at the Gaza Strip pull-out, security sources and associates said. The members of the Lubavitch movement had barricaded themselves inside a communal bomb shelter at the main Gaza Strip settlement of Neve Dekalim with gas cylinders, said their local leader, Rabbi Yigal Kirshenzaft. "There are about 20 of them shut inside a bomb shelter and say they have gas there," he said. |

What is a "normal" reaction to the government forcing you to leave your home and land? What would you do?
|
|
Every large group has some bad apples that makes rest of the group look bad.
Remember that next time we discuss about ROP |
|
Ban religion...and no I am not trolling or joking...organized religion is evil...more evil than the devil, money or any terrorist.
|
|
Anyone who thinks there will be any peace from the withdrawl is in denial. The Gaza was just too expensive to defend.
After the withdrawl, all buildings will be destroyed and any new construction will be carefully monitored. |
|
It's as if they have been fighting and hating each other for so long now that they don't know any other way to act. |
|
Same thing that Arabs/Palastianians have been doing for past 40 years? |
|
|
I wouldn't go in peace either. Fuck leaving what you built. The jews didn't want our tax dollars, they just wanted to keep their houses. If you've never seen that area, it is really nice. Palis will turn it into a shithole in no time.
|
|
|
They should ship the palestinians to Saudi. They have room and plenty of money.
|
|
Well not pulling a Michael Jackson and threatening to kill my own child for starters. |
|
|
Ya know I don't have a problem with that. I agree with that point. Even worse the withdrawl HAS emboldened Pali terrorists who WILL see it as a victory brought about by terrorism. What I'm talking about is shit like mass suicides, threats to drop children from third story windows and randomly shooting into crowds. |

I wouldn't be suprised if they don't want our tax dollars; Reciepts from China must be adding up nicely by now. |
|
|
Yep, some of that is a dumb idea. I would wage all out war against the palis and force their hand. Israel would have to call off the moving. |

|
The Suadis dont want them. nobody does. |
|
|
Boy, that Gaza place must be really nice. Maybe the good Denny's is located there.?
|
|
To quote Battlefield 2, "Artillery, your area!" |
|
|
The difference is that Israel doesn't name schools after their extremists, and you won't see heroic posters with a picture of that soldier who shot up a bus full of palestinians. |
|
|
But they earned what they got by attacking Israel in the first place. Lose the war, lose your home. Plain and simple. |

|
The palis don't have the sense God gave a piss ant. Lazy fuckers will turn a beautiful city into a shithole. Look at the landscape over in paliland, nothing to look at considering they have been there for 1000s of years. Israel turned a shithole into a modern city in less that 30 years. |
|||
|
Indeed. Extremists aren't "extreme" in the Islamic world - they're practically the norm. |
||
|
So? That's your sense of what's important . Perhaps if you stopped judging other's lives by your quality standards then that would'nt be relevant. Perhaps they like living in a shithole. If you don't, then don't move to Palestine. |
||||
|
Have you ever stopped and listened to yourself, or do you just like being contrary? |
|
|
I'm sure there is a school named after notorious member of the terrorists Stern Gang Menachem Bagin somewhere in Israel. |
||
|
Yeah, if the Government ever bulldozed your house to give to Illegal immigrants I'm sure you'd be tickled pink Steyr.
|
|
They don't like living in a shithole, they are just too useless to do any better. If I ever visit palestine it will be during the crusades. |

I remember a few months ago we kicked a major shitfit on this board when SCOTUS ruled for Eminent Domain. I don't blame the Israelis one bit.
|
|
I agree... I am just a bit pained to see Jews fighting Jews after all the - BG |

The Gaza was a spoil of the 6-Day War. Israel was attacked by Egypt, Syria and Jordan. They all lost. This would be analogous to the US pulling out of South Texas. The border dispute between The Nation of Texas and Mexico made the land between the Nueces River and the Rio Grande disputed territory. After the Treaty of Guadelupe Hildago, the border was set at the Rio Grande. This is why Nuevo (new) Laredo was created, Mexicans living on the North Bank refused to become US citizens. |
||
|
No kidding. Palestinians are the least desired Arabs. They originated as nomads and therefore, have no "birthright". So the snob Arabs tell them their birthright is in the farsical land of Palestine. |
||
|
Not that I dispute what you are saying, but wasn't there a unpopular Supreme Court ruling along the lines of your logic lately?.... |
|
|
Yep.... |
|
|
Not exactly. It's one thing to complain about such a thing, it's another to actually take property at the point of gun and give it to someone else - for any reason. Which, incidentally, is what's happening to the settlers in Gaza. |
||
|
Wouldn't it be funny (strange) when the Palestinians move in if the Israeli's start blowing them up on buses via suicide bombings |
|
|
I wonder if the palis will rush in before the IDF blows the houses? Get a free house and a terrorsit victory.
|
|
And they got that property in the first place how? The point of a gun, of course. Like I said in another thread, Israel should have properly annexed the terroritories back in '67, because there was no way in hell the 'settlements' could have lasted under 'psuedo-annexation'. Oh well. |
|||
|
That was their land for thousands of years, they took it back. |
||||
|
And it wasn't their land for well over a thousand years. When was the Diaspora? 585AD or something like that? |
|||||
|
Ding ding ding! |
|
|
Actually, captured territory after defending themselves in a war, and ending up taking territory from the aggressors. That's a little different then a politician arbitrarily reassigning property.
Very true. I think they should've just kicked the "Palestineans" out of their country and taken the shit. Would have solved a lot of problems. Either take the territory as your own, or give it up. This half and half stuff has been a huge problem. |

Michael Jackson is Jewish now??? |

I wouldn't hang my kid out the window or light myself on fire. And that's got nothing to do with ANYTHING. Like I said I understand why they don't wanna go. But the fact remains that some of these people are fucking nuts. |
|
|
DING DING DING. Hey everyone light yourself on fire, commit mass suicide and hang your kid out a window. It is apparantly the RATIONAL reasoned response. |
