How can they agree to borders when bigoted fuck sticks like you think they deserve all of palestine simply because of their religion?
I am not a settler, nor do I agree with them or support them, and they do not represent the government.

No it isn't.
Actually there would. the palestinians have no need to kill the jews to keep their land its based in law and fact.
Yeah its not like they have been prodded for decades to kill the evil infidel jews by religious decrees, combine that with the desire for revenge and giving Palestinians full power at once is a very bad idea.

Why do you keep repeating my ideas back to me to try and convince me to support your bigoted positions?
I defend only the creation of the independent state of Israel, not continuing expansion.Bullshit. this is a blatent lie. You defend their theft of land and if they weren't in alignment with the government the government would stop them not support them.
The Rabbis are not in power.how is rule by a religious sect not theocracy?

Not officially, but it's a theocracy nonetheless. And the mere creation of the state of Israel is a violation of justice.
The United Nations would disagree. I think they count as an authority. The creation of Israel was a major act of justice in a world so recently full of injustice....And the mere creation of the state of Israel is a violation of justice.

is that a false argument or a false question?

Turkish diplomats have been helping with what is in effect a mass evacuation, with many protesters injured in the Israeli commando raid also due to be leaving. Journalists have not been allowed in to see the activists.
It has emerged that most are travelling with no belongings other than their passports and clothes.
Mobile phones, cameras and other equipment they were carrying are still in Israeli hands, according to a foreign ministry spokesman at the airport.
He said Israel still needed to carry out what he called security checks on the equipment. When they finally leave, many will be waiting to hear the activists' version of events.

Geraghty spoke to the Herald last night. She said the Israeli attack was ''pretty full on''. ''Three of the soldiers on the deck were Australian-Israelis, I couldn't believe it.''
She said she had been ''Tasered'' by the Israelis. ''It hurt and it made me feel sick.''
-----------------------------------------------
Geraghty told consular officials she was on the Challenger One when it was intercepted. She suffered bruises, minor burns and nausea.
Challenger One's first mate, Shane Dillon, saw Geraghty being attacked and Israeli forces ripping equipment from McGeough. ''She was just doing her journalistic duties … She advised them she was a bona fide photographer … She was just attacked,'' Mr Dillon told the Herald from Dublin.
He said Challenger One had attempted to outrun the Israeli boats to give Geraghty a chance to send her images. ''We were 15 minutes from the flotilla before they could board us,'' he said.
Geraghty was questioned by the Israelis and asked if she knew she had entered a combat zone. Geraghty said she was an accredited journalist and those rules should not apply. A letter sent on May 24 by the Herald's editor, Peter Fray, to Israeli authorities called for both journalists to be given safe passage if captured.
''In the event that Israel apprehends the vessel on which they are travelling, I urge you to allow McGeough and Geraghty the freedom to pursue their journalistic duty …''
The Israeli ambassador, Yuval Rotem, confirmed the letter was received before the flotilla sailed.
Gabi Lusky, a lawyer hired by the Herald, said authorities lied to her. ''I specifically asked to see the Australians and was told I would see them.'' She said she was locked in a room and later found McGeough and Geraghty were on the way to the airport.

Anywho.. back to the topic..
Who wants to bet that in doing the security checks, everything will be wiped clean?..
If they return it at all. I guess Israel needs journalist equipment as much as they need land it seems.
Here is an article by Peter Rodgers, who is the former Australian ambassador to Israel. He makes some very good points, not only about the attack on the flotilla, but also about the supposed peace process and how Israel is portraying itself in the International community, most importantly, how the International community treats Israel and whether that support will or should continue..
Israel's folly may be the catalyst the West needs by Peter Rodgers.
