[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it wholly amusing that Americans, especially women, are supporting a terrorist group in a part of the world where women are regarded as second class citizens, and little children are routinely raped and sold off as child brides. Let's not even start on honor killings.

While I am never happy about casualties of war, the big picture to me, is much more frightening. So many Middle-Easterners here, who have lived the brutality of their countries, see the benefit of Israel's free society and have expressed grave concerns for her survival.

In typical progressive fashion, it's all about 'the feels', and not about logic.

Ladies, would you like to live in Israel or in Middle-Eastern countries that allow you no freedoms you enjoy today?  How about your daughters? Do you consider honor killings and child rapes, sanctioned by the government, appealing?

As for those 'brutal Israelis', a few metro bombings, and suicide bombers in your grocery stores, etc would wake you up real fast, especially if it all came from the same people. You would not feel so benevolent anymore, if a simple trip to Giant could easily result in your death.

There is a reason why Israeli teachers carry weapons; it has become a necessity.  If you think Israelis consistently and deliberately target children, you need to do a lot more reading.

I think this is BS.

Why then do SO MANY Jewish secondary schools send their seniors to Israel during their last semester?  Do you think that if their trip was sprinkled with bombers in grocery stores parents would sign off?

Furthermore, if Israel is SO dangerous, why do many people make the trip year after year - with young kids in tow?

I've spoken to Jewish friends who tell me that it's a bunch of propaganda.

I am told Israelis are not living in fear.  They are not suffering on a daily basis.

I have nothing good to say about Islam - absolutely nothing!  So I support neither side.  But I do question how Israel is painted as a war zone when I have proof from friends who visit yearly.

So let's have at it, folks. Who is willing to prove me wrong?  (and prove my traveling friends wrong, too)[/quote]
