I know people who live there and a lot who have visited the place. We have to realise that the media paints the picture and is very biased especially the BBC. There is another side to the story.

yes, the BBC is very biased, (towards israel IMO)

but having been to Gaza strip myself and knowing quite a few people there I feel able to comment, and considering that the palestinians have had their country taken from them they have every right to protest in whatever manner they see fit.

you could say the UK shouldnt defend the Falklands, just give it to the Argies.

as was said, one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter.

Israel gave up Gaza and was rewarded by rockets being launched from Gaza. Israel has the right to defend itself. If Israel gave up there would be no Israel.

how do you work that out?

israel was only formed a few years ago......

go do some research before you make stoopid statements.

israel is a manufactured country, so there was NO israel before it was made up, nothing would actually be lost in its demise. we would be back to status quo. (no, not the band)

go do some research before you make stoopid statements. Most of its in the Bible a historically accurate record, over a 3000 year period

israel is a manufactured country, so there was NO israel before it was made up, (the original inhabitants were dispersed, shipped out, murdered etc) nothing would actually be lost in its demise. we would be back to status quo Its a lot more complex than that. (no, not the band)

I don't think we will come to an agreement on this so we should keep our opinions and name calling to ourselves now.

I have not called anyone any names, simply stated well known and accepted facts,

if you cannot or are unwilling to back up your opinions with fact then I can accept that.

if you suppose the bible is an historic document(which it clearly isnt), then why are we missing the 12 books between old and new testaments,? alledgely? and why are so many accounts divisive of each other?

even today when we get a chinese appliance the instructions have been translated wrong,

its amazing how the bible is translated so right all those years ago,

and all this from a man stated we were trying to be non religious.

I apologise if I did, but you cannot make statements without backing them up, which I am of the opinion you did.

if you think I have been racist then please tell me in which post and how?

giving an opinion does not make one racist,.

unless you are a white protestant that is,

we are racist just by being here apparently.
