If it's that easy to get, why can't Kut, et. al. get it correct?
Sorry, I'll make the next one extra pointy so you can feel the sarcasm.

Extra pointy.
I find it interesting that several media outlets are making Israel out to be the bad guy and the aggressor for "escallating" things with additional strikes.
Is anyone else not just sick to death of the whole thing? I honestly don't give a crap either way. The situation is never going to be solved until one side wipes out the other. So, stop beating around the bush, stop hamstringing everyone, and just let all hell break loose until the last man is left standing.
I've been hearing about it all my life, and frankly I'm sick to death of it. Also, while I prefer that Israel wins, I frankly don't give a red rat's ass who wins, just so long as they all stfu.
Without getting too religious...I think letting both sides battle to the end would be a lot like the "Armegeddon" written about in the world's #1 best selling book.
Comments like this make me think people don't appreciate/understand the history prior to the UNSCOP (UN Special Committee on Palestine).
Israel was not "given" a nation. Yeah, the area was occupied....by Arabs and Jews. Palestine was under British authority, by UN mandate, NOT Arab. This isn't a case of taking sovereignty from one entity and handing it to another for the same piece of ground. Palestine had no sovereignty post Ottoman Empire. And the Brits got tired of the mess and shoved it all back to the UN. The UN vote was for/against a two-state partition of the area. (Kut, have you seen a map of the proposed boundaries?) When the UN membership approved the partition, the Jewish Agency accepted. The Arab Higher Committee did not. Skirmishes turned to civil war. Guess who lost? Guess who now has all of the land formerly known as Palestine because the other side adopted a "If we can't have it all, we won't have any of it (because the Jews kicked our ass)" approach?
Israel exists in its current configuration because people chose to make war on it and lost, not because she was "handed" a large chunk of land. Every square mile was paid for in blood.
What I would like to know is WHO is teaching all you people all those lies?
Did you learn them in school (quite possible these days) or "on the streets" (so to speak)
Open your eyes and your minds and learn & accept the truth.
(pity)
This has been determined to be a "political correctness is the debil" board.
Generally I wouldn't call people's religion a superstition, but I reserve my 1st amendment right if they insist on imposing it on me. People of faith need to understand that people not of faith have no reason to believe that "it is written" is necessarily a good foreign policy. But that can always be said without the intended insult that is "superstition".

I have another post to address, but the bolded part is incorrect. The "Mandate" preceeded the existence of the UN. Following WWI the British proposed a plan to carve up the Ottoman Empire, which included Palestine. The League of Nations (which may have been what you were thinking when you used "UN") accepted the plan. However, WWII proved the League powerless, and by 1945 it no longer existed, making all such "legislation" approved by them void.
This silly screed of yours is proof that what you call the "facts of the matter" are lies worthy of joseff goebbels or stalin. iran's "president" ahmanadezhad says the exact same kind of stupid ****.
1) Nobody GAVE Israel it's nation (except God). The UN resolution was to establish 2/TWO states, a Jewish state AND an Arab state whose borders would have been tangled around each other according to who lived where (the only occupation was of JEWISH homes in Hebron where the arabs massacred the Jews and stole their homes). The Jews agreed to 1/2 a loaf and the arabs said "we don't need to compromise or coexist, we've got egypt, jordan,syria and lebanon to back us up; we'll kill all of you and take everything.
2) The UN resolution was conditioned on mutual agreement and the arab attack nullified the whole deal. In the meantime the UN maintained it's embargo on arms sales to the combatants while the evacuating british gave all their police forts to the arabs--and even FOUGHT on their side in Jaffo when the irgun attacked arab forces shelling/sniping tel-aviv (kind of like today)--and all the neighboring armies invaded. A recent example would be what happened in Bosnia. Bottom line: with God's help (had to be, given the odds) JEWS defeated their would be killers and established Israel.
3) "it is a fact that the Israeli state uses some of the same tactics that were used on them under nazi oppression against much of it's non jewish population." WTF???!!! Arabs with or w/o Israeli citizenship have recourse to the judicial system (which leans left and is sympathetic to them); Israeli arabs can vote and hold political office--in spite of saying and doing things that are treason; Arabs from the PA routinely go to Israel for medical treatment; rather than herd them into concentration camps to be murdered with poison gas, the IDF drops leaflets and places robo-calls to gaza to warn civilians of impending air strikes; just because the IDF prevents Iran or turkish terrorists/IHH from docking ships full of munitions in gaza, liars claim that gaza is a "concentration camp" even though Israel allows shipments of food, medicine, and fuel, across the border--and of course there's no blockade on the egypt/gaza border, given all the iranian missiles they're firing.
You Jew haters are so full of **** that you stink everytime you open your mouths!
Yes, LoN. I had UN on the brain from the UNSCOP. My bad.
The Mandate did not become void after the dissolution of the LoN. Else Britain would not have felt the need to take formal steps to end it.
And how is it that you can know this and not know the course of events that led to Israel's statehood and geographic boundaries?
Mmmmm-kay feel better after that rant do we?
Moving on
Israel has defeated every single advasery since the beginning of time, and will continue to do so until the end, for those who are nay Sayers that's cool, I've got 4000 yeas of full filled profetic documentation proving the past as so and giving a pretty good glimps on the future. Its yet to be wrong and fairly specific on events happening right now.
Our Potus will be as laissez faire as possible on this situation, he will offer support at some point, but I see nothing further unless we can make a profit or political gain from it.
