Israel: British Arrest Warrant For Tzipi Livni Threatens Ties

You know why many conflicts don't get resolved? It's the same reason that climate debates don't get resolved; the press' belief that there is always right on both sides and therefore there must be a middle ground. Its akin to giving equal air time to those who say the earth is flat to those who have science and facts on their side.

In the Arab Israeli conflict the press is basically giving the Arabs' (or Palestinians' in this case) terrorism a moral equivalence to Israel defending itself and retaliating to numerous attacks.

"BOTH countries" are not committing war-crimes. Israel doesn't !!target!!! civilians while Hamas and Hezbollah do exactly that. "BOTH countries" !!are not!! held accountable for their atrocious conduct. Accountability is strictly reserved for Israel's actions while the Palestinians always seem to get a pass b/c of their position. I put "BOTH countries" in quotes because as of today "Palestine" is not a recognized state, fyi.

Israel: British Arrest Warrant For Tzipi Livni Threatens Ties

Israel was taking a beating by rockets fired from Gaza - land that was unilaterally given up by Israel to the Palestinians. The land was supposed to be a launching pad for the nascent Palestinian state. Instead they used it as a launching pad to bomb civilian communities in neighboring Israel. This continued for EIGHT years without the world community saying a thing!

Imagine what would have happend had they actually built their state and show the world they intended to live as a peaceful member of the world community.

Israel was perfectly justified in retaliating for those attacks. None of us would have put up with our own governments' inaction for so long.

We need to start holding the Palestinians up to a higher standard if they want to join the world community. They can't get a free pass every time and then blame everything on Israel. Grow up and take some responsibility for yourselves!!
