    That tells me that less Palestinians have been killed by Israelis over the last two decades than the number of African Americans killed by street crime EVERY YEAR.

    Worst. Extermination. Ever.

    It's my contention that what the Palestinians need is a Gandhi, a militant pacifist totally committed to nonviolence but at the same time utterly devoted to the Palestinian people. Militant nonviolence worked in India and the United States, it could work here (though admittedly the leaders of both those movements were murdered and neither have yet accomplished all their stated goals).

    Has there been such already and do they yet survive?

    Also, I have been given to understand that while they are far from salubrious places to live today that both the Gaza strip and the far south of Irag naturally have a general climate and topography resembling either Greece or the Riviera, but warmer. Is that true?

    Turns out that what SA has now is essentially Marxism. Its why the nation is tearing itself apart at the seems. Being against apartheid in SA was superficial at best for most. It highlighted the irresponsibility of most who simply assumed that the transition away from the traditional colonial rule was going to be democracy. Clearly, that didn't happen. So, interesting that you brought it up. When you suggest that you want to abolish Israel, you are, in fact, directly providing comfort and aid to the terrorists Hamas and Hezbollah.

    Please explain how African Americans have any pertinence to the Israeli-Palestine conflicts in this thread? Please explain the parallels you appear to be drawing, or at least start your own thread and stop hijacking this one.

    How exactly is South Africa “essentially Marxist”?

    Where exactly have I suggested “abolishing Israel”? Is your argument entirely reliant on lying about me?

    You think they could all be sent to Madagascar?

    Why do they have to be sent anywhere? A major reason the Jews are there now is that they lived peaceably together with the Palestinians for hundred of years until just relatively recently. Palestine was the major area of Jewish refuge throughout Medieval times, many of the Sephardim came there when they were expelled from Spain in the 1400's

    All you nationalists want us all to live totally separately in little"pure" enclaves. That's worked so well for the world since the idea of nationalism was first proposed in the late 18th century.

    Anyplace has gotta be better than an "open air concentration camp", right?

    Because they're a crazy death cult that's clearly not compatible with living in close proximity to the most free and tolerant nation in the Middle East.

    That was then, now they're a crazy death cult.

    Would you welcome crazy death cultists into your enclave?

    So the rocket attacks did not take place then? Whew, what a relief.

    It's the "let's pretend" game. C'mon, play along and don't spoil the fun.

    Palestinian pacifist.

    Now THAT is an oxymoron if ever there was one.

    You clearly aren't aware where the Nazis wanted to send all the Jews before WWII

    Every single Palestinian there suddenly converted to this cult in 1948?. All several million people, man, woman, child?

    Are you a Christian, or do you even just have Christian relatives or friends? Why, then, do you go demonstrating at the funerals of fallen US soldiers along with your other compatriots in the Westboro Baptist Church? Don't try to deny you do that, ALL Christians are EXACTLY the same.

    I don't have or want any enclave, that's my whole idea. I have this jerkwad neighbor with 65 illegal guns who's constantly making veiled threats on me and my family for no reason I can see beyond the fact that I fly Old Glory on my flagpole instead of the Stars and Bars like him. Far as I can tell he's in this Insane Death Cult called the Right Wing *******s. I handle that by contributing well to the Policeman's Charities and having stickers that say I do displayed prominently, not by saying all right wingers should be deported.

    It's just a bit of 'gotcha' game anyway. Someone at Breitbart figured out no Demcorats tweeted, and ran with it as a story.

    I am kind of surprised, with as hostile to Israel as the dems have been, that any of the Democrat presidential candidates would volunteer to publicly support Israel, for fear of making their pro-Palestinian supporters angry at them.

    Yeh, you'd almost think Democrats were individual human beings instead of these inhuman beasts who want to destroy humanity for no reason

    So you think it is acceptable that they kill innocent Israeli civilians?

    It's not an organization, it's an official policy of the Palestinian authority, and they won't do away with it, despite worldwide condemnation, because it's very popular with the Palestinians.

    So? Every Palestinian now supports them foursquare? Every muslim is in ISIS and every Christian worships at Westboro Baptist?
