Israel is a criminal nation.
Currently Israel is blocking aid from abroad so it cannot reach Gaza.
The Gaza people is suffering and human nations cannot even help them.
Israel is a criminal nation.
If Israel want stable peace, then they shoud start to act humanely.
Until then - Israel is a criminal nation.

Strawman.
When did I ever say that blockading Gaza is not an act of war?
Of course it's an act of war. War is justified when the other guy shoots first.
Edit: The blockade of Tiran was (along with other hostile acts) a justification for the attack on Egypt; not any other country.
Originally posted by sh76It's no wonder why your arguments are so weak and lacking in factual support; you don't even believe them.

Yes.
To be honest, I'm not sure why I even do this.
It's ironic. When I'm dealing with my friends and family members, I'm the dove. I'm the guy arguing for the Palestinian state and ripping the idea of the settlements, etc.
But here, the opposition to everything Israel seems so overwhelming so often, I can't help but ride to Israel's defense.

The Israeli blockade of Gaza was not initially in response to any armed act, but to Hamas coming to power. Is it an "act of war" for the Palestinians to have a "government" that Israel doesn't like?

Originally posted by sh76In other words, it's an "act of war" for Palestinians to resist occupation. Maybe so, but the occupation, not the Palestinian resistance to it, is a violation of IL. The Palestinians are justified to fight Israel so long as Israel occupies and oppresses them, but Israel is not justified to occupy and repress them. So Israel is guilty of Crimes against Peace, War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity.

So you don't even be ...[text shortened]... your pathetic arguments here. That's a relief; the last thing we need is another whodey.

Kmax may also help the Israeli cause at times, but only if the most clever comment he can think of happens to be one that supports Israel.

What I am NOT for is denying Israel the right to defend itself and the "international community" holding Israel to the ridiculous double standard that it does.
There is no inconsistency between arguing in favor of a peaceful Palestinian state to those who oppose it and arguing in favor of Israel being allowed to defend itself to those who oppose that.
