Palestine Is Still The Issue

Recommended Posts

A spider webbed state of corridors and pock marks in between a hostile neighbor? LOL there is no compromise there, there is only submission bent over backwards.

Israel was aggressive with its air force and still is. The siege is not legal it's another example of Israel breaking the law and getting away with it. Israel's policies against Palestinians are fundamentally illegal by international standards, and they should be.

If this is so then why are they not being held under international sanctions? Why can't they get the votes to bring consequences to bear on Israel? The UN spends an inordinate amount of time and effort criticising Israel so why do they stop at words? If the case is so clear cut and most of the nations of the world are in agreement then why?

Exactly..... yet people the world over continue to push and push and push at them for simply wanting to live on a piece of land they can call their own

in peace. The whole thing is irrational and it's going to end badly.

If that's all they want then let's cut Greater Israel in half and give the southern half to Palestine. Put peacekeepers in for 50, 100 or 200 years. Whatever it takes to heal this torn land once and for all. Your Christian-Zionist prophecy be damned sir.

Because Israel has powerful friends in the UN.

First of all, it's not MY prophecy, I only read and believe it. Second, I think that if a day comes when you see with your own eyes that it is the Palestinians who actually will accept nothing less than all the land, you are going to be greatly disappointed and feel pretty foolish.

Only one that I know of and that's the US. And it is my belief that if Israel did not possess a nuclear weapons stockpile even my country would have washed hands of them long ago. We are known for being brutally self interested. But their status in the world changed forever in about '67 when they became a member of the Club. Now they are recognized by all the rational leaders of the world to be here for good and all. Only the Palestinians and Islamists who use the Palestinians still hold out hope they can be removed from the scene. I think the world wouldn't cry if Israel was destroyed, thinking they "deserve" it. It's interesting to me how the greatest conflict of modern times had it's genesis in an old family feud. I've often thought of the conflict as a message from our Creator showing us what happens when we cannot coexist, even with our own kindred.

I have no idea what content you're talking about, but I stand by all of my content. Why don't you show up over there in that dinosaur thread and say something rude to me about my content.

You do and you won't admit it. But it's nice to know that you've finally run out of insults and other BS that you can't even make a full paragraph anymore.

And also, Somalian pirates do attack foreign flagged ships in international waters. Hence why there is a massive anti-piracy operation in the area involving a lot of naval vessels from around the world. And why doesn't the Somali government do anything about it? It can't. It cannot maintain control over the capital city let alone over the country side. Although things are looking up there since the Kenyan invasion.

I find that israel is the only westerised state in the area, thats why is persecuted so much.

As it goes against the grain to the way middle eastern think

But then again, i think its a dummy cause to find a way to kick off like a proxy to other an country

For me israel is a nice place and is a sucker in the games being played

whilst being a good country

until a definate decision is made it will always be the same

nice OP!

See how it's all about the land for you? I don't represent those Palestinians, whoever you're talking about. I represent the ones who want self determination, self esteem, self worth, and self responsibility. They deserve their own statehood and all of the rights, benefits, and privileges that statehood confers. Palestinian refugees and non-refugees can come home.

You don't believe your own prophecy because you support Zionist mass migration and illegal colonies. You can't have both, unless you're a bloodthirsty monster trying to exterminate "the Jews" and "the Arabs" both! And based on the way you write, you're not a monster. The strongest emotion running through you is fear and perhaps even paranoia. You reek of fear sir. I think your belief in that prophecy is bad for your health. You need to chill with some cheeba cheeba.

Whatever you think you're talking about, bring it. I find my own content utterly defensible, whatever it is you're slobbering about.

Now that's what I'm talking about. A massive anti-Israel operation in Gazan and international waters involving a lot of naval vessels from around the world. The Turkish, Greek, US and others should escort Gaza-bound ships breaking Israel's illegal and widely condemned siege of Gaza. These should be government ships escorting these flotilla, and we should also remember our treaty with NATO (something quite easy for someone from NZ to neglect or disrespect, I'm sure).

New Zealand is so out of the way, I think NZ should pay welfare to Israel. It's money from such a pure and disconnected source. It'll look genuine. Israelis will see your flag on the package and think "Where's New Zealand?" Win-win-win for everybody.

You may have finally struck nail on head. It IS all about the land for a Christian Zionist. As a group our concerns are for the people of Israel but of at least as great importance is that God says in His word that the land is His and is NOT to be divided - not even by Jews! I think many of their problems come from the fact that even THEY have been trying to give away land for peace instead of just trusting His word about it. Sometimes it seems to me that the whole situation was contrived as some sort of test for the human race and we're failing miserably. As to the fear, if I am I'm not overly aware of it. I'll admit to some since my outlook for the future is pretty grim in the short run but I really do believe things are going to be infinitely better in the not so distant future. Now I will attend to Cheeba Cheeba....

I already brought it for everyone to see. You can defend your intolerance if you want. But it ain't gonna help you.

Good. Tell me why you believe such intolerance then. If it is so defensible, you should be able to defend it.

Unless you can show me where Israel raids international vessels in international waters on a regular basis, this appears to be nothing more than a complete and utter waste of my time explaining the obvious.

You've lowered yourself into a pit of lies. My content is defensible and stands on its own, wherever you dream of finding it. Next time, remember to tell the truth and actually find my content you're only lying about. You waste your time fleshing out my arguments with Zionists and making a fool and a liar out of yourself. A kid half the world away from the world's problems whose government is a great big do-nothing thinking he can tell me what to do with my money. You're tossed in the head, kid.

Yes because posting a link showing you blatantly criticising a Hindu's views of vegetarianism is a "lie".

You waste your time fleshing out my arguments with Zionists and making a fool and a liar out of yourself.

I don't consider it time wasted. What I'm seeing now is a very thin argument comprised of nothing but deflections to the poster. If your position is so defensible, Yamato, defend it. Don't try to deflect it because it won't stick.

Do you actually have a functioning brain in that head of yours? Or has it been dumbed down by all those "morals" and "standards" that you so willingly flaunt about yet don't actually live by?

Israel Deploys Nuclear Weapons on German-Built Submarines

image-358622-galleryV9-ukcq.jpg

The Dolphin class submarines are built for Israel in a shipyard in Kiel (March 2012 photo).

A German shipyard has already built three submarines for Israel, and three more are planned. Now SPIEGEL has learned that Israel is arming the submarines with nuclear-tipped cruise missiles. The German government has known about Israel's nuclear weapons program for decades, despite its official denials.

Germany is helping Israel to develop its military nuclear capabilities, SPIEGEL has learned. According to extensive research carried out by the magazine, Israel is equipping submarines that were built in the northern German city of Kiel and largely paid for by the German government with nuclear-tipped cruise missiles. The missiles can be launched using a previously secret hydraulic ejection system. Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak told SPIEGEL that Germans should be "proud" that they have secured the existence of the state of Israel "for many years."

In the past, the German government has always stuck to the position that it is unaware of nuclear weapons being deployed on the vessels. Now, however, former high-ranking officials from the German Defense Ministry, including former State Secretary Lothar Rühl and former chief of the planning staff Hans Rühle, have told SPIEGEL that they had always assumed that Israel would deploy nuclear weapons on the submarines. Rühl had even discussed the issue with the military in Tel Aviv.

Israel has a policy of not commenting officially on its nuclear weapons program. Documents from the archives of the German Foreign Ministry make it clear, however, that the German government has known about the program since 1961. The last discussion for which there is evidence took place in 1977, when then-Chancellor Helmut Schmidt spoke to then-Israeli Foreign Minister Moshe Dayan about the issue.

The submarines are built by the German shipyard HDW in Kiel. Three submarines have already been delivered to Israel, and three more will be delivered by 2017. In addition, Israel is considering ordering its seventh, eighth and ninth submarines from Germany.

The German government recently signed the contract for the delivery of the sixth vessel. According to information obtained by SPIEGEL, Chancellor Angela Merkel made substantial concessions to the Israelis. Not only is Berlin financing one-third of the cost of the submarine, around €135 million ($168 million), but it is also allowing Israel to defer its payment until 2015.

Merkel had tied the delivery of the sixth submarine to a number of conditions, including a demand that Israel stop its expansionist settlement policy and allow the completion of a sewage treatment plant in the Gaza Strip, which is partially financed with German money. So far, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has met none of the terms.

Check back on SPIEGEL International on Monday for the full English-language version of SPIEGEL's cover story on Germany's cooperation with Israel over its submarine program.

I wrote: "You think that it does, but what you think also violates your morality that "killing is wrong". How you express your inadequate moral code in your own life leaves much to be desired in light of the daily bloodbath of Animalia you "require". Your diet is more important than your morality. That's not true for people who actually believe that "killing is wrong". "

Hell yes that's what I said. What's the problem here? Let's make sure we always understand the context of the discussion I'm having with someone else before you cherry pick it. I'm challenging the self-assured moral code of an atheist that claims "One must weigh the pros and cons of obeying the Golden Rule" which isn't a moral it's a moral evasion.

Thanks for posting this. Not trying to be sarcastic but it is the first time I've actually seen one (other than just the sail). The Dolphins are the "patrol boats" of submarines. Yes, with a nuclear tipped cruise missile they provide a credible first strike OR counter punch. The Israeli and German relationship is an enigma to me. I think the Germans look upon the Israelis as deserving help after their history together or possibly Israel is just a good customer. These subs, in my view, provide a true level of stability since no nation, even Iran could attack Israel with nukes and expect to escape retaliation in a big way. The problem with Iran, however is that rationality isn't guaranteed with a theocracy. Khomeini actually stated that losing all of Iran was acceptable if it ended the Jews. His thoughts were pure rational to himself: after all, the "martyrs" were guaranteed paradise.

Thing is, he wasn't an atheist. And I am sorry but I find it highly offensive that you go about calling other people's morals "inferior" when yours aren't exactly "superior" either.

Why would I lie to you? You called me a Zionist, a racist when you have no evidence to prove otherwise. I can find plenty of quotes of you flaming other posters. And if you weren't flaming them, why were you tempoarily banned? Clearly, if your posts are so squeaky clean as you claim, there was no need to ban you.

But they did, so clearly you aren't as angellic as you profess.

Why would you lie michaelw; maybe because you're desperate for a rock to throw.

Anyone who claims that they were born with their morals and that the essence of their moral birthright is "killing is wrong" deserved some further analysis.

If you support Zionist policies, you're a Zionist for our purposes. It works like any other political label.

Thing is, he wasn't an atheist

"Thing is", based on what? If he's somebody who can deny the morality right out of the church, that's atheistic enough for me. Denying Christ to pretend we're born with our moral codes like animal instincts, especially after being a member in the Church for decades, is beyond atheistic enough.

You're just going in circles chasing your tail, michaelw. You don't have a problem with anything substantive I've said about this issue. There's nothing worth arguing about anymore but you can't let the Nothing go. Banter and insults don't interest me and you can do better than that yourself.

Apparently Zionism comes in many flavors historically. But one need NOT be Jewish to call oneself a Zionist. I do so because of my religious belief in the Jewish right to possess the land based on the holy scripture. This is not a wholesale endorsement of every stupid or even vile action of the secular State of Israel which is no more "holy" or better than any other flawed, human institution. Above are some of the other forms of Zionism.
