Welcome to SubSim eskachig

I've read your first posts with a keen sense of interest because I have long been a supporter of Israel and her struggle to maintain the right to exist.

Sometimes I struggle with condoning the methods used but always balance it out by making an allowance such as 'you weren't there so how would or should you have reacted' or something along those lines.

Watching this thread develop over time I was honestly struggling to support or justify the actions of Israel but after viewing the video evidence my conclusion is that Israel took a big gamble with international opinion/feeling and once that card had been played they were forced by the actions of the ships inhabitants to take special measures to meet the situation that developed.

Right or wrong initially the end game was probably forced upon them but in hindsight (such a wonderful gift) they should have known how the situation would more than likely escalate.

The General Topics or snake pit as some of the regulars is the place to come for some lively topical debate.

Tis a pity you've been confronted by the 'internet tough guy' so early in your membership but my advice would be to take little or no notice, none here do, he is in fact a constant source of entertainment.

Don't bother posting facts and source links to back up your points because they are usually dismissed by a blinkered opinion.

They've been out of the brig for less than a week and already your the recipient of bullying type statements.

Do a bit research on the boards, you'll soon get the picture.

I guess some people never learn.
