The difference between the Israeli demonstrations and the Palestinian ones is that the Israelis demonstrate against their own government whereas the Palestinian demonstrations are always against Israel. Also, Israel has elected a government that withdrew from Gaza and Jericho, while the Palestinians elected a Hamas government that sent suicide bombers. There are always extremest, but the question is what does the majority wants.

Look, they're not useless. I'm just trying to make you understand that peace is wanted on both sides. And you are misinformed - there are more frequent Palestinian demonstrations (which are peaceful) than Israeli, but most are shortlived because the IDF uses tear gas to disburse the crowd. In 2008 alone, there have been many demonstrations which include foreign guests, especially by the West Bank barrier. Apart from B'tselem and other aid groups, I dont see Israelis protesting for peace.

I won't go into useless factual arguments with you. One thing I could say, I have seen and participated in dozens of peace demonstrations in Israel including the 400,000 people peace demonstration of Nov. 1995. How many such demonstrations of Palestinians did you hear of?

No, land is more important for Israel, that's why today they keep invading and building settlements. The Palestinians are waiting for the madness to stop, but every time peace talks arise - Israel backs out on its promises to remove checkpoints and settlements. They want peace is badly as anyone because their wounds are fresh.

yeah, but do u also hate Islamic terrorism? All types of terrorism suck, but where do u suggest that the Jews that were expelled from Arab lands go to? We've been expelled from just about every country world wide, maybe this is G-d's way of being true to His promise that after exile He'd bring us back. I would love for all of us, Arabs, Jews, Muslims, Christians to live happily ever after but the governments won't let us.

I hate all terrorism, like that carried out by mossad, the cia, the corporate media. The temple isn't standing, we have no right to be there. In supporting israel, you are supporting the destruction of homes. In supporting israel, you are supporting the cause of a lot of so called terrorism.

I'm Messianic and my congregation has Persians, Egyptians, Indians, Pakistanis, Americans, Hispanics, all together, one in Yeshua, we support Israel but also help Palestinian people living in poverty. Arabs are our brothers and sisters, whether they are Muslim or not. I just hate Islamic terrorism, hope you can find Messianic family that you can share again with. Shalom :)

How is it hypocrisy for me to TELL THE TRUTH that in Palestinian TV they teach children to be martyrs for Allah? I don't hate those children, I hate the sick imams that lie to them and tell them to kill themselves, so you're the hypocrite if you don't feel sorry for those children who deserve to have dreams. I know Israel is no saint, I don't agree 100% with them but we have a right to exist too. My MUSLIM Palestinian friend told me it's true about terrorist kid tv programs.
