Fish-n-chips, rotten teeth, soccer hooligans and the Union Jack. I wonder if Israelis condemn the English for "occupying" and "brutalizing" Northern Ireland?

It was meant tounge in cheek... meaning it is logically absurd for these English-weenies to hold Israel responsible for defending herself when her very state hood is at risk. Just as it would be absurd for Israel to butt-into Britans affairs w/ Ireland and prejudge the English Protestants in Northern Ireland. Sorry for any misunderstanding.

Hey, I knew that. Mine was supposed to be tongue-in-cheek also. Your point was a good one.

Here in the US that distinction belongs to the tax funded NPR. As a bonus they sometimes broadcast the BBC!

NPR is very stealth about thier left leaning agenda. Yet our kids get indoctrinated into this anti-capitalism propaganda via kiddie programming. You are correct, TY for bringing it to my attention.

"Forget the apparently inconsequential fact that Israel had only a few months earlier offered to disgorge 97 per cent of the West Bank, grant the Palestinians a share in Jerusalem, permit a limited return of the refugees and recognise an independent Palestinian state (which no previous ruler in the area had ever done)".

The answer to this dilemma is simply go ahead and return 97% of the west bank, and recognize a Palestinian state; UNILATERARLY! This will give Israel the upper moral ground worldwide, and force the democratic initiative in Palestine to forge forward. Bombing Gaza at night and killing scores of kids does not help Israel image.

Screaming about the British/French/German are against Israel is simply silly. They are against the misguided arrogant Israeli's policy under Sharon. The paranoia of the Israeli militants that labels their best friends anti-Semitic is causing lots of damage to Israel. Israel must reassess its hawkish policies, and go on with the program to mend the hostilities with their neighbors.

How insane is this!!! The Pallies will only be that much closer to Israel population centers and able to arm themselves to the gills. For phase 2 of this Jihad. For a more intense war.

Why should Pallies get a free lunch without even signing a peace agreement? That they will break anyway.

I do understand it is an unpolpular view. However, consider the move Sadat has taken during the dark day of non-recognition of Israel as a state?

I do not trust the Palestinians, specially their current terrorist leadership to commit to any treaty! However, one must start the confidence building measures, and continue working on discrediting violance as a mean for achieving anything! The current living condition in Israel is unacceptable, as well as the living conditions in Gaza/west bank! Somebody have to think outside the box.

I want to add, ... "Up yours!"
But I won't.

Think twice about insisting on going to Hell,
read the Bible,
dare God to show Himself to you.

If you are happily living in the confort and relatively safe environment of the USA, and would like the Israelis to fight and get killed, year after year...That is not so brave?

I feel for these people being unable to safely walk to the supermarket! This conditions are unacceptable. Instead of being angry, and increase the cycle of violance; simply look back to the time when Barak was negotiating, and peace appears to be within reach. At that time, considerable amount of goodwill between the two sides was there. The hotilities gives more opportunities to the radical Islamists to radicalize the region. To this end, no one wins. Reasonable understanding and cooperation to defuse this tention is needed. Don't missunderstand, I am not saying giving away anything without a solid agreement!

Not looking to "blame" anyone... but we all must be accountable for airing our biases or grievances in the press. I said, "these English-weenies" (sort of a term of endearment), meaning the BBC, as opposed to calling all English ppl weenies.

My father's side of the family tree is English.
