Has Israel overstepped the mark?

7 dead, inc children, on a holiday beach. By any stretch of the
imagination, I cannot see how they can justify this. So, the Palestinians
are no angels, but I'm horrified at today's actions.

Jeff Gaines...

The Israelis effectively stole Israel from the Palestinians and have, with
American backing, managed to hang on to it.

In the circumstances it seems odd that it's usually the Palestinians who
are called terrorists and not the Israelis.

Frederick Williams...

International law recognizes the right of an invaded people to fight
against their invaders.

'Zackly so!

Any killing is horrific, you get no argument from me there.
But, this has been going on since before I was born :-( No matter who (

Frederick Williams...

Being told that somewhere is your homeland does not entitle your
co-religionists to terrorize the indigenous people of that so-called
homeland.

(I haven't invented the word co-religionists, have I?)

originally) was in the right in the first place, such dreadful things have
happened on both sides that everyone is in the wrong as far as I can see.
Its so complicated and so steeped in bigotry , hatred , fear , wanting to
be in control not wanting to back down I despair of there ever being an
end to it. In the meantime, no one can feel safe.
Will keep on praying that there is though.

I think we all know that whilst there are terrorists there will always
be problems. Unfortunately terrorists are in every country and are
using any instability they can find to make matters worse :(
