What I commented on was that it had not been denied...the "news" agencies made a statement, but never followed up on it.

My other thoughts on the Jewish situation, although I believe the government would not publicly make statements of fighting with the Israeli's, if the Palestinians are not eradicated, the threat continues.

I care not about the plight of foreigners in other nations. I worry more about our own children being fed rather than children of our enemy. Our resources have been going overseas for ages, as we are the #1 donator of food and aid to the middle east, yet they continue to blame us for their own woes. Let them starve while killing each other over a scrap of worthless land. When they bring their trash to our shores, I think it should be pointed out that although Israel has showed the world that they can live amongst the enemy, they have DONE NOTHING to eliminate the threat and wipe out their enemy once and for all.

How many "peace talks" are they going to have with Arafat before they actually DO something. After 30 years, you would think these ignorant people would see the error of their ways. Either eradicate all palestinians or give up. Allowing bombing after bombing to occur is not how to prevent the same events from re-occurring. All terrorist groups originate from training in Palestine terror camps, which should have been the primary target. Arafat should have been assasinated before taking power. You cannot make peace with your enemies until you have brought them to their knees and they can no longer present a threat to peace.

Now that this activity may continue until my children or grandchildren come of age is the only thing that frightens me. I am not afraid to face the enemy or those who sympathize with them in this country.

However, the cowards do not fight. They only bomb and attack the ones who cannot defend themselves. If they refuse to control their own hostilities toward each other, then the problems should be dealt with. We nuked two cities in Japan for much less death, which was inflicted upon a military target.

I personally have no sympathy for your views. Far from it. In fact, I'm a big supporter of Israel. The people living in Israel today, except for the very old, simply had nothing to do with the originial partition of the area into two states. I'm sorry, but your thinking on this issue reminds me of Arator's.

You blame Jews for not "wiping out" the problem long ago, coming up with a final solution for the area.

You basically condemn Jews for not doing something that if they did do, you would immediately condemn as racist on their part. While I understand the logic, Israel is a democracy, and democracies tend not to operate in such manner. None of the surrounding countries are democracies. Israel is in a tough position. Your hostility towards the Jews has a long pedigree.
