Why is Israel getting away with these atrocities?

Surely now it is time for Bush and Blair to step in and tell Israel that enough is enough.Israel is getting away with state terrorism against innocent Palestinian civilians. This last week or so the Israeli government has sanctioned actions which have resulted in the deaths of manu innocent Palestine civilians. They are deliberately targetting, amongst other things, civilian ameneties, and they really do not care who they kill in the process.If this was any other nation Bush and Blair would do something about it, the UN would do something about it, can you imagine the outcry if the UK had bombed Ireland during the troubles?The latest news is that the Palestine gov is calling for International help to stop the Israeli invasion of their country, so why is Israel getting away with State Terrorism, why is the civilised world sitting back and doing nothing?Brian.

This is certainly the big question.It is a difficult one, but Israel has been given a land to house her nation of people, so the question is redundant. How she got the land and how she is treating her neighbours are also big questions.But as for the legal side, why is it legal for Israel to be given her old stomping ground and other displaced nations are not. For example, if it is views as 'right' for Israel to go back to the land of her roots, then why don't the native Americans insist on having their land back? The legal choice is that Israel has the land and there's nothing anyone can do about it. The moral choice is for Israel to stop terrorising Palestine and try to keep their end of the peace negotiations. Also, there's a whole list of Israeli PM's who should be charged with war crimes.Brian.

Indeed. The initiation of Israel has had some far reaching consequences, and it wasn't (and still is) political self-serving decisions that helped them to return. Christians bombarded politicians and newspapers urging them to place Israel back in Her homeland, anything to help prophecy along, freaking idiots. Yes. They have settled there now, and to be fair, as you say, many were born and raised there and know nothing else. This is probably the most sensible answer, but the most sensible often gets overtaken by these self serving policies you mention. With Israel being the only democracy in the region, and its ties with America, I can't see there ever being full peace in the area. I'll keep wishing for it though.Brian.

Dear God in Heaven, what is Israel doing?May their God have mercy on their souls, they are slaughtering people without a second thought, they are no better than animals.Brian.

You seem to be mistaking reality with some sort of dungeons and dragons game.I am sure there must be a forum somewhere for people who enjoy these games.This is the real world, there is no need to bring your hobby into it.Brian.
