All of Iran?Never said it was. But is the position of Hamas and Iran.
Sad that it has elevated to such usageExcept they have rockets
OMG, No but of the official government. Ya know the people in power.All of Iran?
Both should be embarrassed. And yes, it is that dirt (arm pit) that the divide is over. Both sides have committed horrible atrocities over time.Perhaps Israel and Palestine are embarrassed over what the real problem is. Land. So maybe that’s why they hide behind terrorist groups and say the fighting is over religion. Just a hunch.
When did Israel kidnap, rape, murder and parade around any Palestinian? When did Israel take civilian hostages and threaten to kill them on live TV?Both should be embarrassed. And yes, it is that dirt (arm pit) that the divide is over. Both sides have committed horrible atrocities over time.
Technically, the religions are quite similar and keep the commandments as principle foundations. but no matter how many similarities that I find, i will get lambasted for even trying and as exposed on these 2 threads, both sides expect affirmations and condemnations of what the others/them have done.
Im rather sick of it.

So go there and stop them. Or are you expecting US (American's) to send money?. But what Hamas is doing right now is evil and needs to be stopped.
What?? You missed my point altogether. My point is that Israelis have not done these things. The terrorist have.I have no idea. Are you looking for reasons to hate israelis?
I never said if we should or not. That is not what this is about.So go there and stop them. Or are you expecting US (American's) to send money?
What are you taking about? You engaged me in a discussion. My stance is the terrorists are evil for raping, murdering and parading around people and need to be stopped.Why are your questions geared for affirmation? Do you need someone to help you understand what is right and wrong?
I vote , "YES"I hear ya But I’m so sick of hearing things aren’t simple and things are complicated. it’s getting old. Like we don’t know who’s to blame. what are we idiots?
The UN representing the majority of governments on the earth, has condemned israel for over half a century but the US will not allow any enforcement.
What?? You missed my point altogether. My point is that Israelis have not done these things. The terrorist have.
I never said if we should or not. That is not what this is about.
I asked you, "Why are your questions geared for affirmation? Do you need someone to help you understand what is right and wrong?"What are you taking about?
But you do not want to help. All you are doing is writing in a sense of expecting Affirmations.My stance is the terrorists are evil for raping, murdering and parading around people and need to be stopped.
I am aware of thatThe UN is in a tough spot.
I've never heard that beforeThey dare not offend Islamic countries.
No country should be identified as a religious state. The very premise exhibits a predisposed bigotry. And just because one does represent a religious designation, does not mean another has the right. It is not right!(And we should stop and meditate on the idea that there even are "Islamic countries".)
That is the same methodology of expecting affirmations. Expecting a condemnation to address a specific action is just rude.So to appease the Islamic world, they condemn Israel but never (or rarely), condemn a country like Iran.
The context is clear, the UN (majority on the earth) have condemned israel for the oppression (apartheid) within palestine/israel and the illegal occupation. Yet in your mention, it comes to the rational that the UN should condemn Iran before expecting israel to stop the illegal acts.I'm not apologizing for the UN, but I think it's important to keep their actions - and inactions - in context.
Well this is an aspect of reality we have to consider..No country should be identified as a religious state. The very premise exhibits a predisposed bigotry. And just because one does represent a religious designation, does not mean another has the right. It is not right!

A couple of points here:The context is clear, the UN (majority on the earth) have condemned israel for the oppression (apartheid) within palestine/israel and the illegal occupation. Yet in your claim, the UN should condemn Iran before expecting them to stop the illegal acts.

I have heard that before but I have not read resolution that mentions who originated it. Most of them just mention the "proposal by the United Nations,". Unless you have something specific to substantiate that, it's hard to accept as true.A couple of points here:
- Most of the UN's condemning of Israel originates from Islamic countries.
Just because a country is labeled as islamic, does not mean the condemnation is Islamic-based condemnation, as islamic is a religious designation. Technically you are lowering the credibility of the opinion by keeping a biased frame to the comment.These countries control a LOT of oil. It's not at all clear that the countries that "go along" with these Islamic-based condemnations would really condemn Israel if they we're addicted to ME oil.
I rewrote them twice, as I find myself falling in the error of claiming that YOU wrote the opinions, when you are just using the 'they' 'them' angle as if writing how you believe it to be true but just reflecting what YOU think 'they' are saying. A perfect example is the claim about the UN, as if the UN does not want to upset the islamic countries or that the UN created the resolutions because of what the islamic countries want. Which I have nothing in writing except opinions to substantiate that premise. The reality is, israel has committed many errors in palestine and the UN has condemned them. Not because the islamic countries say so but because what israel has done over the last half century has been found wrong by the majority on the earth voting to the effect. Not to mention that the ill regard is wrong and should never have occurred by civilized people.- I'm struggling to put together those two snippets of your above, can you rephrase them? Thanks!
