Do the Palestinians want the freedom that having their own state would offer? The freedom to elect their own representatives? Freedom from IDF checkpoints, freedom from IDF incursions? Freedom to cross into Israel for the real good jobs?

Then why have they turned down their own state every time it was offered?

The answer is, they don't want freedom. They want to destroy Israel, drive the Jews out (or kill them all). Your "freedom" fighter is my implaccable terrorist.

You need to get over that these suicide bombers represent any kind of positive cause. They don't.
If they are successful, they will only create misery for both the Israelis and their own people.

My first point was to show that Alison Weir is a liar.

My second point was to show that there was no "calm" that Israel destroyed.

It is true that most of the cases I reported were military targets. But Alison Weir did not separate legitimate military targets from innocent civilian deaths either in her list of Palestinian deaths.

Perhaps if she made a list similar to the one I made--which shows the names, places, and circumstances of each death, then we can draw some conclusions about who is at fault for the continuing violence.

I am working for the day when Palestinian and Israeli can live and work side by side without violence. What are you working for?
