Austin repeats 'ironclad support' for Israel in conflict with Palestine

SrA John Monette - nice deflection, my argument holds all the water. until you live with terrorism every day, when you have to wonder if going to the grocery store will be the day some asshole straps a bomb to themselves and kills you, you have no right to judge them, or our support of them. I call you an idiot because the label fits your view. And Israel did not start this mess, The Palestinians did 70 years ago.

SSG Robert Perrotto Keep telling yourself that but I'll keep disagreeing.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen - You , my friend, are free to disagree. so is Monette, I am punching holes in his argument that somehow Israel is to blame here. Israel did not launch 100+ missiles at random civilian targets - Hamas did.

SSG Robert Perrotto No argument there from me. My point is that since Israel was established the US has acquiesced to their every want.

how about Israel stop evicting people solely because they are not Israeli?

what will stop the rockets - stop forcing Israel to be defensive.

SSG Robert Perrotto - Political pressure, economic pressure, and if that doesn't work force. That is all the Palestinians understand, anything else is just wasted on them. MHO
