Gaza from Another Christian's point of view
by Tanas at 2009-01-06 09:50:58 | I do agree that Israel need to protect itself but why does Israel need to protect itself is the main question that no one mentions. Will here it is in one word:
OCCUPATION
Israel illegally occupied Palestinian land, made Palestinains homeless, and call them terrorist. So if you stop the occuptaion you will stop the violence.
Blessings, Tanas |

- occupation by David, at 2009-01-08 23:34:23
The fact of the matter is Israel left Gaza in 2005. Now if by occupation you mean the State of Israel, then they can not let themselves be destroyed and can't simply pack up and leave. Israel has tried negotiation with Arafat and he not only refused statehood for his people but stopped negotiating and went to war after having pledged not to. Since Hamas' stated goal is the destruction of Israel, asking Israel to negotiate with them is like asking the US to negotiate with alqaeda. - Occupied Territories by Anon, at 2009-01-13 14:46:27
Many people claim that if Israel were to leave the areas she occupied after the 1967 war, then the violence against her would stop. This is clearly false, however. We can see this when we look at the situation in Gaza which was handed back in 2005 and immediately became a terrorist launching pad for Islamist militants. If Judea, Samaria, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights were also handed back, Israel's plight would be so much worse as would also that of the Palestinians living in those areas
the truth

Yes I agree, I believe that there are many things we do not hear about and that we really do not know. Israel has to do this and I pray that the truth of what is really going on would be unfolded to all people. |

Gaza
by Emma at 2009-01-08 23:01:21 | Are we to follow the Bible or are we to follow how we feel?? For me as a Christian, I know that my heart is decietful and really the only way to the Truth is through His Word. God tells us to LOVE. He tells us He is Love and Jesus states very clearly that anyone who hates his brother is a murderer. The second greatest command after loving God with all your heart, soul and mind is LOVE ONE ANOTHER. Laos, do not repay a wrong for a wrong!!! Do any of these sound familiar to my fellow Christian brothers and sisters!
Should Israel defend itself??? NO. Should the Palestinians be killed, no actually murdered because they democratically elected a party that wants to defend its' rights as a State??? NO. No one is saying it is okay for Hamas to bomb Israel, however, of all the states in the Middle East, Israel is the only one with Nuclear capabilites and the most aggressive and hostile to it's neighbours. Lets not forget their war against Lebanon last year!!!
Lastly, people are talking about the Palestinians being responsible for their own deaths as they voted in Hamas. Let me ask....would it have been okay for Iraqis to go over to America and kill innocent people because the Americans in their bid to get rid o Saddam killed many civillian Iraqis. I know no one who would answer yes to this question as it is ludicrous, so why are you blaming the Palestinians???
Please pray for peace and stop the finger pointing!!! It is out of our hands but under Gods feet and one day we will all be give account of our thoughts and actions regarding this tragedy!!!! |

War: a choice not a necessity
by Nabil Habiby at 2009-01-16 07:21:31 | please brother, i urge you to cut the nonesense. For once, dont give the lame argument :" they are throwing their rockets at us". Are 30 rockets struck at with 30000 bombs? I do not speak for Hamas nor am i attempting to justif their actions, but do not try to convince me that war was the ONLY option that Israel had to stop the rockets. How about letting in food supplies? How about opening all the passages to Gaza? How about something called NEGOTIATIONS?
Now last time i checked Israel wasnt God, so i dont know who put you above us all, and who made you refree to this football match, but not everytime some Jew feels THREATENED does Israel have the right to launch a full-scale attack,killing thousands, wounding a multitude,and destroying all infrastructure to be found.
War never was the only option, rather, war has always been the choice of the bullies of this world, those who dont have mature communication skills, and who choose to flex their useless muscles rather than scratch their sleeping brain. |
