"...it's much the same sort of thing the Nazis used to do. "We have taken 1,000 citizens hostage. If the Resistance blows up our ammo dump, we will kill them."

Only a blind man would see them as "much the same sort of thing".

Blowing up a Nazi ammo dump in time of war is the same as blowing up a civilian wedding party or cafe?

Bulldozing an empty village is the same as killing 1,000 civilian hostages?

Travis, you know that, and I know that. But the Palestinian fanatics and their syncophantic supporters will pay no heed to the difference.

Of course the Maqui regretted the 1000 killed but that just made the surrounding country that much madder at the Germans,and provided the Maqui with more members and support. Win Win.

What is the answer in Israel? I don't have a clue.

I AM tired of seeing young Israelis with their arms blown off,while Palistinian spokesmen talk about Israeli "oppression".
