sabremeisterOkay, this is getting out of hand. It's been nearly a week now, and still the morons are showing no signs of stopping. Israel: STOP, YOU MORONIC BIGOTED FUCKWITS!
Okay, so a terrorist organistation has kidnapped one of your soldiers. How many soldiers and/or policemen did the IRA kidnap? And how many times did the RAF bomb the shit out of Dublin? Mossad (the Israeli equivalent to the SAS) is supposed to be the second-best small-unit special tactics unit in the world. You guys ever hear of the Iranian Embassy Siege? Two days preperation, the SAS went in, five minutes, half a dozen grenades, five hundred bullets, job done. Did Mad Maggie blow up the building? No. She sent in the special unit whose job it was to deal with this sort of thing. But you? You have sent in half your military to the supposed location of where the one kidnapped soldier is being held, blowing up everything in its' path, killing and wounding hundreds of innocent civilians! How is that justified? How? Come on, answer me! It can't, can it?
You know why they kidnapped that soldier? Because he's a representation of Israeli authority. Israeli authority which has, in recent months, disregarded a fair democratic election result of a neighbouring country, continued to construct an illegal wall around the borders of the territories of that neighbouring country, and ceased paying monies legally due to the democratically elected government of said country. Without those monies, public transport has ground to a halt, schools have ceased to be staffed, emergency services have ceased to function, and people have got scared. When people get scared, they do stupid things.
You must be bloody terrified.
Maybe the Iranian president was right - a country as irresponsible, childish, volatile and belligerent as Israel needs to be wiped off the map.
