Clo> Israeli's should do unto others as they would do unto themselves.


Clo,

About 2005 the Israeli's tried that . . .
They gave to the Palestinians the entire Gaza Strip . . .

Along with greenhouses, irrigation systems, and lots
of other goodies with which, it was hoped, the
Palestinians would create a 'Singapore on the
Mediterranean' . . . Instead, the Palestinians tore
out all the goodies, and used the materials to make
rockets to rain down on the Israelis.

Background on the Gaza Strip

http://www.btselem.org/gaza_strip

In September 2005, Israel completed implementation of its Disengagement Plan from the Gaza Strip, which included dismantling all the settlements there, evacuating the settlers to Israel and withdrawing the military. After the plan was fully implemented, Israel issued an order declaring the end of its military rule in the Gaza Strip, indicating it was no longer responsible for the safety and well-being of the population in Gaza.

The military withdrawal and the dismantling of the settlements led to considerably improved freedom of movement for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. However, even after the implementation of the Disengagement Plan, Israel retained control of the crossings from Gaza into Israel, with access to the West Bank, as well as Gaza’s air space and territorial waters. Also remaining at Israel’s discretion were the movement of persons and goods into and from Gaza. In practice, Israel continues to control important aspects of the lives of 1.7 million Palestinians living in Gaza, a million of whom UNRWA considers refugees. Although Rafah Crossing on the Egyptian border operated for seven months after the disengagement, in accord with an agreement reached by Israel and the Palestinian Authority, enabling movement to Egypt, it was closed after the abduction of the soldier Gilad Shalit in June 2006.

And,
The Palestinians have been shooting rockets into
Israel ever since.

Why would people corralled, be upset...

Israeli's should do unto others as they would do unto themselves. Otherwise there will never be peace.

Over 1,000 Palestinians are dead, 80%+ civilians.
With all the rockets Hama's fired, only 2 dead in Israel. Most of Israelis that were killed are foot soldiers.
