![]() Any such restrictions on the US? You should really think through your arguments. You do realise that Hezbollah is a relatively tiny group with minor funds? |

If you think this actually makes them large to any extent compared to the US, you are deluded. Do you think Hezbollah can manufacture patriot missiles? F16s? Tanks? Most support for Hamas is likely to come from radical elements in Egypt itself. Also a lot of the weapons are actually from the US. When the US armed the Fatah regime so that they could actually beat Hamas, they didn't realise that when they lost the weapons would fall into Hamas' hands. I suggest you read this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamas#Funding |

Besides this nonexistent funding from Hezbollah to Hamas is a huge divergence from palestinians telling Hezbollah firing non existent rockets into Israel on their behalf which you originally claimed.
In the mean time I don't see the connection between this and murders being allowed. |

"Well think of Hezbollah like the U.S. Like the U.S. Isreal has no funding. Its the same as Hezbollah giving to Hamas. You blame us for Isreal and I blame Hezbollah for Hamas. " to Hezbollah elements may exist inside Gaza. Funny. Also Israel has relatively large economy and so can fund itself. Hamas doesn't collect taxes and as mentioned in the above wiki article has a budget of $70mn. The US should remain impartial to stop this ongoing conflict and humanitarian disaster. People will look back at this like they do in Sudan and Rwanda. But in this case a nation like the US is funding it. |

Again, how this allows soldiers to get away with murder I don't know. Say even Hezbollah did fund Hamas and gave them $5mn of Hamas' $70mn (hypothetical, no evidence to suggest this), then the US feels it has to give Israel $3bn a year to counteract this? In addition, Hamas only recently gained power. The US has been giving military aid to Israel for a very long time. |

You are a seriously poor debater who is desprately trying to modify his argument. Next time before you make such arguments, check them out. If you had said, they sypathised with Hamas, you would have had no complaint from me. Similarly, chechen rebels, who are very far away also sympathise with palestinians. To then say they are funding them is absurd. edit: I see one article, mentions a FAILED smuggling operation in 2002. The article itself was written on 2005. So just goes to show how airtight the sea routes around gaza are. Israel isn't worried about that too much as its really easy to police. Its the underground tunnels to egypt which are the problem. |

Well done. After lots of time trying to prove your unsubstantiated claim, you come up with a failed attempt.
I guess you knew of this failed attempt before your initial comment in this thread? |

Terrorists are when they're on their side. Army and "freedom fighters" are when they're on our side.

... and the world in general. IMO killing women, especially old women, or children makes you the worst kind of human being. It's seems that "Gods Army" is at it again, doing what they know best: the killing of innocent human beings. |

There is a need for people not to get personal in discussions such as this. If you aren't able to carry forward a discussion without insulting each other, just ask, we can have this thread closed.
We have no problems at all, if you choose an informal tone with your posts. However, learn to draw a line between informality and vocal anarchy. The latter is usually not welcome. |

Im not morally adjust to the war in the middle east because i think Israel will do a lot of damage to innocent people but Israel is within its rights to defend itself from attacks, it dosnt matter if Israel is a big bully or that it dosnt want Palestine to be a separate nation, its being attacked when it wasnt doing anything there for it has rights to go in and occupy untill they stop.
Its just that one side wants to rule over the other side and frankly Israel is way to powerful for Palestine to do anything about that. They need to live seperatly and deal with it. Like Ireland has done, years ago Ireland wanted home rule before world war 1 and we were going to give them that, technicaly they woudl be part of the Uk but still be able to govern themselves, we nevr gota round to giving them that because we were busy fighting a war and then to busy rebuilding europe to give them notice. So they got mad and broke free from the UK we kept some county and they say we have no right to claim these county thus they kept fightig for a unified Ireland, the north wanted to stay in the UK so they kept fighting. Eventually people just got fed up and decided to stay separate and work something out, a northern Irish assembly was created and they have some devolved powers. Palestine and Isreal is going to have to be 2 separate nations. Ones claim over territory is facile because Palestine will fight till every citizen has died, Israel will fight till Palestine gives up which will never happen. You see Palestine giving aid to militants instead of helping their children they decide to build up secret tunnels in times of peace, build up and spend foreign and aid on weapons knowing they will attack again. EDIT: both sides are idiots but if Palestine don't drop it soon they wont be able to be a separate nation they will have went to far, they will all be obliterated eventually if they continue to aggravate Isreal who has a real army not some civilians and militants from neighbouring sympathiser Arabic nations. Im not condoning Isreals actions but come on they have rights to defend themselves. Although wasnt it Isreal who stole their land back all those years ago to start this mess?
