Re: Faith's good stuff!

The "good stuff" is, of course, less than the full truth.

Israel has a policy of demolishing the houses where those accused of terrorist offences live - whether they are actually used for terrorist activity or not. That's pretty well-known to everyone who actually follows the news.

The intifada has also seen a renewal of Israel's policy of demolishing the homes of Palestinians suspected of carrying out attacks in Israel, rendering members of their families homeless.

What's the point in demolishing the house where a suicide bomber lived ?

Human rights group B'Tselem says 34 Palestinian houses were demolished as punishment in November and a further 19 in December.

Re: Faith's good stuff!

i.e. you claim that Israel HAS to severely punish the relatives of suicide bombers even though they could be entirely innocent ? Why ?

Don't you understand that by giving these people genuine grievances the Israeli government is encouraging Palestinian Arabs to join the terrorist organsiations resisting Isrealit rule ? At least some of the demolitions had some clear security benefit - but demolishing the house where a suicide bomber used to live does not.

Re: Palestinian Christians

Perhaps you would like to substantiate your claims of bias.

Especially as your preferred sources seem to take an extreme pro-Israel line.
