Well, finally, someone in the Vatican comes out with a truth! However, I expect that soon we will hear a retraction or a spin.

Let this image of the Israeli Occupation and slow encroachment of settlements be the judge.

I have no religious affiliations. I agree with the Vatican on this one.

Where was the Vatican’s condemnation of Hamas’ abduction of Gilad Shalit? Where was the Vatican’s condemnation of Hamas’ 6000 terrorist rockets shot into Southern Israel since Sept. 2005 when the Israeli government pulled all military out of Gaza? Where was the Vatican’s condemnation of Hamas leadership that has repeatedly sent young men and women as homicide bombers into Israeli towns to kill innocent people?

If Israel agrees to cease firing, and Hamas continues to launch rockets, then what?

Will everything then be fine and dandy?

C’mon all you armchair terrorists. What is the answer?

“Where was the Vatican’s condemnation of Hamas’ abduction of Gilad Shalit?”

How many Palestinian civilians die in revenge killins by Israel for captured soldiers? Thousands.

“Where was the Vatican’s condemnation of Hamas’ 6000 terrorist rockets shot into Southern Israel since Sept. 2005 when the Israeli government pulled all military out of Gaza?”

What is the ratio of Palestinian to Israeli civilian deaths since 2005? More than 200.

“Where was the Vatican’s condemnation of Hamas leadership that has repeatedly sent young men and women as homicide bombers into Israeli towns to kill innocent people?”

Read above. Do you expect the relatives and friends of people oh so moral Israel kills and maims to swallow their misery and wait to be killed, or take revenge, just as Israel does in a much more cowardly manner?

Accept it Larry, people like you who happily take in the Kool Aid when it comes to Israel are getting to be more and more of a minority. At one point not even money will be able to keep Israel ending like Burma, almost completely isolated, embargoed by all the markets that matter, its population, except for a greedy, corrupt elite, growing poorer and poorer by the day.

Not likely.

Israel’s six million Jews is vastly outnumbered by the 500 million Arabs in the 27 countries of the middle east. If the middle east was a football field then Israel would take up the space of a matchbox.

Israel will be the last man standing because the Jewish people of Israel and the world will never accept the loss of their homeland.

Israel has the weaponry and the support that counts to ensure their existence. Unless Israel is left alone, many more will perish. Cities and whole countries will vanish before Israel gives up an inch of its hard won land. It really does not help any cause by prodding Israel with a stick.

So give your intellect a chance to catch up with your emotions, and have yourself a beer. Kool Aid is bad for you.

Well at least in Europe people have a more balanced view of things. And the words of the Vatican could not have been more precise. Of the 1.5 million people in the 139 sq. miles of Gaza, 1 million are without electricity and water right now. Around 60,000 displaced with 80% living below the poverty line.

Their homes and families are gone with over 200 children killed (total 900). All this for 20 Israelis killed by rocket fire in the last 8 years.
So “Concentration Camp” is as good a term as any.
