I reply to your two latest messages. I certainly never flagged you, only replied before.

Any people who surreptitiously take advantage of another people's goodwill under the guise of wanting to farm and are generously given that opportunity have been doubly betrayed by these people taking their land. No part of this baby ever truly belonged to Jews, so no divisions should be considered acceptable. And just as Arafat allows young men to fight and young boys, yes, did enter the fray as they saw the harm done to their people and could fight as well as any boys in our history did (I don't suppose you saw The Patriots) I too am willing to back these people to fight for their native land. These people are without free use of their own land and deserve to have it back, and it would not kill Israelis to evacuate as they should, as it would the baby. Commercial enterprise is not what makes a country valuable, as the U.N. and U.S. seemed to think when they turned it over to Israel and Israel took much more. I think the Egyptian princess who raised Moses out of compassion also made a mistake with good intentions. For this is the land of Near-East people, resonating for them with memories of their forefathers, not a land for invaders, twice over. I suppose you would ask AZ or Argentina to share half of its land because they were once foolish enough to consider making a Jewish state there, if Jews kvetched enough.

Okay, I read your reply. Do you honestly believe those Palestinian women want their little boys to go face tanks? And do you honestly believe that Palestinians can't get a hold of weapons so they have to resort to little boys throwing rocks for self defense? You haven't seen the photos stashes of weapons in the Middle East? And do you honestly believe those little kids wake up in the morning thinking, "I can't wait to get out there and throw some rocks!" No, they live under fear and oppression FROM the PLO, PNA and others, and with 50 plus Palestinian journalists arrested by the PNA, we don't get to hear the fearful Palestinians' side very often, but if you search the news archives, (USAToday?) you'll find some very brave Palestinian women trying to get the word out that they are FORCED to send their little boys to the battleline and stay quiet about it or be killed. No piece of real estate is more valuable to a mother than her little boy, but CNN would have you believe otherwise. Keep watching it, keep believing it.
