And you get your info from American TV, the same media that aired the "300" bullshit?
300 bullshit? Are you upset about the Greek epic? Hey, tell it to Leonidas. Not American TV's fault that Xerxes and his Immortals got their asses kicked.
Anyway, you are seriously denying that Israelis, devout religious people, do not take their Torah word for word? You are denying that within the old testament, it is said that you shall cut the hand of a man who steals?
Well let's see: with your vast command of media resources, have you ever detected a case where someone in Israel got his hand cut off for stealing? Ever? Anywhere?
Good to see that you know there are Israeli criminals as well.
Ah - you err. The Israelis who tortured people in their jails - which, apparently, amounts to uncomfortable positioning and bags soaked in urine; I wonder how it might compare to torture in Iranian or Saudi or Turkish or Egyptian or Pakistani jails, just of sheer curiousity - are criminals by their own laws.
The people who hung the girl in Iran are
not criminals by their own laws, but merely criminals of rationality, humanity and morality.
Not legally. So little teenage girls can continue to raped by their uncles and then hung quite legally in good ol' Iran, whereas the Israelis have to face justice for their actions. That's the difference. The Iranians - despite their vastly more evil actions - are not going to be punished, since they merely
upheld the laws of their land.
Israel wants truce! LOL I forgot when bombing infrastructure was an act of Peace. If Israel wants peace, get their ass out of Palestine and they can have as much of it as they want. Antarctica is up for grabs, why can't they fuck themselves over there?
Because they have no historical claim to Antarctica. The Jews, for their own security, wanted a place to live in safety. Now, admittedly, they didn't get that since their immigration was railed against by prominent figures such as the Grand Mufti, but the fact of the matter is that they immigrated peacefully and were then attacked. You seem to think that the evil Jews were on the offensive from the get-go. They weren't. They were pushed into being that way.
Not only that, but the IDF has commited numerous atrocities against Palestinians, so what WOULD you expect Hesbollah to do?
Stop firing rockets so there can be peace and economic stability.
Just kidding: I actually expect them to fire more rockets pretty much no matter what.
Hesbollah targets IDF members not Israeli infrastructure.
This is a lie.
Hesbollah wants justice, Israel replies with more cluster bombs. Does that seem like they want peace?
Hezbollah wants the death of the Jews and the destruction of Israel. (Apparently they also want to "drink Jewish blood" - although that might be Hamas. Hamas is tougher, anyway, than Hezbollah ever could be. Not that they're better than the IDF, but definitely braver than those losers at Hezbollah.)
As well, please give this a thought. Imagine, whatever state you live in (if you do) was taken over by a bunch of fake-asses claiming it to be theirs. They drove you out, killed your people, and now you live as a refugee in a neighboring state.
Now, wouldn't you fight back?
That's interesting. Now give this a thought:
Your people are being persecuted everywhere worldwide. Things are getting worse and worse. You decide to run for it before things get really crazy and, say, I don't know, some lunatic starts throwing you in ovens. Time to go.
You start emigrating to a place where, historically, your people came from and where you think you can build a society. But, when you show up, you find out that the religion of your neighbours - more numerous and better armed and backed than you are, with about a billion coreligionists lined up behind them all the way to the borders of India - think that because of your religion, you should be automatic second-class citizens, and they're not afraid of showing it. But, to be honest, you've already done that crap and you're not doing it again - and, moreover, this is your
homeland. This is where your people
come from, for crying out loud. Their spiritual and genetic point of origin. No way you're doing this again. So you decide not to be pushed around and you push back. Well! That touches off a firestorm, since the religious attitude of your neighbours - laid out fairly explicitly in their religious texts - is that nonbelievers have to be subservient, or convert, or die - and you're not converting. This is your spiritual homeland too, for fuck's sake. The neighbours take your resistance to being treated like shit as a call to something they call
jihad (the 'lesser' kind, but seemingly the more noticeable one) and gather up arms. They start killing your people. You have guns too, a few, and you fight back. Some of your people are massacred, and some of your resistance cells go off the reservation and do the same.
Then the locals decide to call in all their friends, and all their armies from outside. You're stuck with no tanks, not many guns, and no friends. But you fight anyway; and, frankly, you kick the shit out of them. One would think it would end there; but oh, no. The hate goes on and on and on, endlessly, and all because you wouldn't do as the religion of these idiots dictated and lie down to take it up the ass, because you thought that was degrading - imagine that - and since everybody always does that to you and to avoid making waves with the locals. But on your
homeland? Fuck that noise. If the neighbours can't treat you like a human being or even, say, a 'protected' 'Person of the Book', then fuck 'em.
And that's where we are today.
Also, please define "fake asses". Is this some kind of Syrian ritual involving manhood?
