Unjust Occupation?


It is amazing that throughout this "conflict" between Israel and Hamas, people (even here in America) are continuing to defend the actions of the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas. After Hamas fired a barrage of over 6000 missiles into Israel, what is Israel expected to do?

If it were the other way around; or any other country, no one would blame them. Yet, because it is Israel..., the nations cry foul. This is especially amazing, since there is no such thing as Palestine or a Palestinian people. The people of "Palestine" are Arabs not Palestinians. The area of Palestine was occupied by Greeks, and was never an Arab or "Palestinian" land.

I believe what is also insulting is that many liberals will continue to suggest that Islam is a religion of peace, there are just a few bad apples that spoil it for the rest. However, if it were Christians or Jews acting in such a way, liberals would condemn the whole lot. And as a matter of fact they do.

Israel has every right to defend herself. And the nations should quit trying reward the "Palestinians" for their bad behavior by giving them more land or cowering to their demands.
