I'd just like to see the Palestinians DEMONSTRATE a little PEACE, and totally STOP the terrorism. Israel keeps offering the Palestinians their own state, and the Palestinians keep responding by killing Israelis. But the Palestinians are portrayed as the "good guys" while Israel is an evil occupier. It gets tiresome.
(20:00) Israeli killed in drive-by shooting near Jerusalem
By The Jerusalem Post Internet Staff
Palestinian terrorists killed a woman motorist in a drive-by shooting near Givat Ze'ev, northwest of Jerusalem, a short while ago.
Another woman occupant of the car was moderately to seriously wounded in the chest and leg. Medics took her to Hadassah-University Hospital in Ein Kerem.
The attack took place on Route 443 near a gas station at the entrance to Givat Ze'ev.
The terrorists reportedly fled in the direction of Ramallah, Israel Radio reported.
It certainly does. Every apparent attempt at peace by the 'Palestinians' and other Arabs with Isreal has proved itself to be disingenuous by subsequent treachery. All of which ends up being traced back to their leadership. Combined with reams of statements and documents from Arab leaders and states that clearly outline the complete destruction of Isreal there is no reason whatsoever to have any sympathy for their 'plight'. No matter how many pictures of cute little kids they can produce.
As an American of non-Jewish and non-Arab descent I really don't have a familial stake in their problems. I would prefer that our gooberment had stayed out of the whole thing. Way too late for that. As an American I would like to see our gooberment support principles in its international dealings that reflect our own founding principles of liberty, freedom and justice. I don't see how supporting Isreals right to exist out of one side of our mouth and condemning its right to self defense out of the other is consistent with that.
For years the whiners have been saying that we should discourage Isreal from doing anything substantial or meaningful to defend itself because it will drag us into a war or wars with the 'Arab world'. Well hello! The 'Arab world' has dragged us into wars with it anyway. Or were Desert Storm and Sept. 11th just productions staged on a Hollywood movie set?
