Israel has been attacked by its neighbors literally since its creation. Whether it was decades of PLO bombs on school busses or suicide bombers in market places or missiles at its cities, Israel has be subjected to endless violence. Only a racist like yourself would deny Israel's right to defend itself.
Once again, if a group like the Palestinians sent a single missil ...[text shortened]... 's give the same courtesy to Israel which has a much tamer response to decades of continued attacks.
That’s because it was created from an act of ethnic cleansing.
When was the last time an Arab coalition attacked Israel? There can be no excuses for the way Israel has and continues to treat its Palestinian victims.
Your simply so racist that you cannot see the humanity of the Palestinians or the inhumanity of the Israeli governments policies towards them. That’s your problem in a nut shell.

“Pervasive persecution of Christians, sometimes amounting to genocide, is ongoing in parts of the Middle East, and has prompted an exodus in the past two decades, according to a report commissioned by the British foreign secretary, Jeremy Hunt.

Millions of Christians in the region have been uprooted from their homes, and many have been killed, kidnapped, imprisoned and discriminated against, the report finds. It also highlights discrimination across south-east Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and in east Asia – often driven by state authoritarianism.”

“The inconvenient truth,” the report finds, is “that the overwhelming majority ( 80% ) of persecuted religious believers are Christians”.
“In countries such as Algeria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Syria and Saudi Arabia the situation of Christians and other minorities has reached an alarming stage. In Saudi Arabia there are strict limitations on all forms of expression of Christianity including public acts of worship. There have been regular crackdowns on private Christian services. The Arab-Israeli conflict has caused the majority of Palestinian Christians to leave their homeland. The population of Palestinian Christians has dropped from 15% to 2%.

The pro Israeli UK government commissioned the report, it did not write the report. It is you that’s relying on your bias to argue against the findings of the report. We know that the Christians of majority Muslim countries bear the brunt of retaliation against Christian western countries activities in these regions. For you or anyone else to pretend otherwise is a disgustingly callous lie.

All the sarcasm in the world is not going to change the facts duchess, I’m sure your not ignorant of the truth about the ethnic cleansing of Christians in the Middle East and other Muslim majority areas, it just doesn’t suit your world view and that fundamental racism which colours every debate you join is your problem.

Are you sure that you can properly refer to the persecution of Christians as ethnic cleaning?

“ Would Kevcvs57 like to ask Hanan Ashrawi or Salah Taamari if they want Israeli soldiers
to keep occupying them in order to 'protect' them (sarcasm) from the 'evil' Muslims? ”

Perhaps Hanan Ashrawi or Saleh Taamari would prefer to live under the protection of ISIS than the fully horned and hooved devils of the IDF

“ Sheikh Omar Hadid Brigade
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“Al Dalwa Al-Islamia
Army of Islam
The Sheikh Omar Hadid Brigade ( Arabic: لواء الشيخ عمر حديد‎ )also known as Islamic State in Gaza,[7] is an Islamist militant[1] group affiliated with the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant that is active in the Gaza Strip.[8] Its goals have consistently matched those of the Islamic State, in that it seeks to establish the al-Sham caliphate.[9] As such, it opposes all forms of Palestinian nationalism[3][10] while also supporting the elimination of all Jews[11][12] and other ethno-religious 'infidels' from the region.[13][14]”

If you are referring to the 1948 War of Independence between the British and the Palestinians [plus supporters], then you will need to explain how that is ethnic cleansing.

The fact that you met a few Palestinians makes you more partial and less reliable in your analysis of the situation.
