Default Does Isreal have a right to a physical barrier

Do you think they should be able to wall up thier borders and isolate themselves? Or tear it down?

Their not isolating themselves. They are caging in the Palestinians. And, no they do not have the right to put up the wall.

Default I think they have the right to protect their civilians

Until the Palistinians can prevent future bombings of little children going to school and people shopping, I think Isreal has the right to protect its citizens in whatever way is needed.

Americans would not tolerate the attacks on our civilians like what we see in Isreal. How hypocritical are we if we deny them the same rights to protect their civilian population that we would demand for ourselves?

Nobody is stopping the Israelis from building walls where ever they want, in their own territory. Right now, that wall takes up some nice territory from a future Palestinian state.

Default Good to hear from you Spork

Who says its not their land? How much did the Arabs respect Israeli land ownership in the earlier Arab-Israeli wars?

Compare it to the land in Karelia that by all rights should have been Finnish but was part of the Soviet Union. Should those areas be returned to Finland now? A lot of ethnic Finns were displaced and I am sure many more were seperated from friends and family as a result of the Soviet occupation of areas that were more Finnish than Russian.

I think that is a little extreme. Yes they certainly have "their hands tied" by the terrorist elements in their society. But to generalize that they are animals is a little crass.

You sound almost like "MR. I AM LOOKING OUT FOR YOU" who thinks that Iraqis are basically "numbskulls" !!
