Okay, you explained that once, and I've already forgotten.

If you have something to say on a subject, say it. Cutesy net-baby speak is for children.

I reply how I like, as everyone else does, weather its on topic or not. 'Cutsey net baby speak" as you don't have a clue what it is or means, when people older than you post on here using "cutsy-net baby speak".

This is not like most of the forums you're used to. We consider it polite here to write in language that others can understand.
Then you should have said that in the first place. Now there's something to discuss.

Okay then lets discuss. Without disputing over who's land is who's, Palestine has suffered far more causulties than Israelis.

And don't tell me this "biased" which makes it illegitmate. Any source is biased in some way.

You specifically said "older than me". So who here is older than me and uses those?


Not bad, except for the part about "confiscated Palistinian land". Until 1967 the West Bank was owned by Jordan. No one ever mentioned the "plight of the Palestinians" then. In 1967 Jordan attacked Israel over the West Bank. Israel won. Then Yassir Arafat formed the PLO and waged war on Israel. Israel responded by creating the conditions that exist today.

Israel actually treats the Muslims in-country fairly well. Do any of the Muslim countries treat Jews as well? Do you complain about that, or only about Israel and only because America supports them. Israel is surrounded by people who would gladly wipe them from the face of the earth merely for being Jews. Do you comment on that, or only on the side that suits you?

I don't condone some of Israel's actions, and I think they've gone overboard more than a few times; but given the nature of what they're up against overall, I think they've actually showed quite a bit of restraint.

The rocket attacks I mean....I'm wondering if there'll ever be a lasting peace in the area.
