An interesting read.
Quote:
Hello,

First of all, sorry for my English... *A friend of mine helped me to finalize it, yet it may still contain mistakes.*

Okay, so here we go.
My name is Arkadi, I live in Israel and I want to talk a bit about the Gaza War.

I’ve been reading a lot in forums all around the world about the war, what people speak about it and their opinion, and if you ask me... I’d say I saw too much dumb (excuse my language here, I mean I am just very upset about this) people, people (Most of them here in this forum) who don’t live in Israel and who don’t really see the Israeli news in Israel in its real and complete manner. People who don’t know what it is to live day-by-day in here and can allow themselves to say that Israel is doing the wrong thing and just killing civilians.

So that’s’ the problem stated, and now let me show you a real Israeli opinion (fact?):
For 8 years now we are getting rocket strikes on our land, on our houses, on our kids and friends.
Now, Can you imagine that number? 8 years?!
With that said, I want to show you a pic I found in the net: http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak- … 0_9469.jpg

Do you know from where do the Hamas shot their missiles?
From civilians houses, from schools, from hospitals, from mosques. Did you know that?
Do you know WHY? Because they know that we couldn’t attack these places, we CAN’T attack a hospital! we CAN’T attack school full of kids because we know what will happen if we will and because it is simply inhuman...

8 years we are sending them food, gas, diesel fuel, gasoline, water, medical equipment, medication and much, much more! Tens of trucks full of supplies, EVERY DAY – EVERY DAY, YET THEY STILL STRIKE US. WHY? BECAUSE WE ARE HUMMANE
, and that’s our “disadvantage”!
By the way now in the war we are sending thes trucks right now too and do you know what Hams doing? killing tham.

And now, only after 8 years we are finally doing what we should have done many years ago. We are responding to their aggressive, inhumane attacks. A time came in which we just can’t take it any more.
We have finally started to attack the places from where they shooting the missiles & houses of active members of the Hamas organization.

Unfortunately there are lots of kids and civilians dying from these attacks every day. We are doing our best to not hurt them; we are calling their phones, sending SMS messeges, letters and written posts saying they have to leave the place because it is about to get striked(Why, you might ask? Because there are Hamas members under their buildings (Gaza is full of tunnels in which Hamas hide).
Most of the civilians leaving but there are few who stay and get killed. We are doing our best to save them, but they don’t want to listen...
And you know what? All of these civilians get killed only because of the Hamas. The war is against the Hamas and not the civilians.
I am very upset and it’s not good that civilians get killed. I feel very and deeply sorry for that, yet as I’ve said, we are doing our best and again.... we cant wait another 8 years..

One more thing - did do you know that Hamas are killing Gaza’s own civilians? There are a lot of horrible things like that that the Hamas are doing to its own people.

And again I am very sorry for the civilians who get killed and wish it wouldn’t happen.



ALL OF WHAT I WROTE ABOVE IS FACTUAL INFORMATION AND THE TRUTH OF THE STORY. IT IS THE REAL FACTS AND REPRESENTS THE TRUE OPINION OF THE ISRAELI CIVILIANS

Except that Israel should know better than to retaliate. Most of the mess they are in is due to things they have done for the past 50 years, including the greed of expanding beyond the borders that the UN set up, to the point of threatening Arab nations like Egypt.

I'm not excusing the Arab residents of what is now Palestine, however, but they are simply reacting to Israels heavy-handed and bullying tactics.

Kick someone in the face and you'd be stupid not to expect them to kick back harder. Don't kick them and you won't be at fault.

Guess they're not into turning the other cheek.

I'm not really supporting either of the sides though.

I'm just sick of people talking about "poor Gaza" and feeling good about themselves because they're aware of what (they think) is happening there, while they're far away from harm.

..and also acting like it's the only ******** up thing happening in the world right now.

I refuse to get into the actual discussion of what's going on, only that I thank GT for posting someone's opinion and facts of what's happened.

As for retaliation and turning the other cheek- come on, Davey... look what's happened in GB with the IRA.

If we really want to open our mouths to say anything about it, we would be foolish. Just as the one who posted it. (original poster and not GhosTz) IMO. There are three sides to every story, and no one will ever be able to say what is the truth. Every one has their own view on it and on anything going on in the world. That is what makes us human, and before DLS says anything, it also makes us all in-human. We all ask for peace, yet we do in-human things, like fighting someone.

All anyone can do, is take what they are show and make a judgment on it. And this is only after we are taught to not judge others.

I always mock the "don't judge others" spiel because people tend to leave out the most important part of the teaching.

"Don't judge others."
"Why not?"
"Just don't."

Well its all Abrahams fault , if he just listened to God we wouldn't have to worry about it. Muslims are from Abrahams wifes servant, hagar and Jews from his wife Sarah. The thing is technically the muslims have the gaza by birthright but the jews have it by being God's favorite til christians came around (even though they screwed up every few decades). And the media doesn't even tell everything so in other words it lies. Why can't the world be made of mes then every would be reading a book or underhandedly planning the downfall of the other. I think the muslims should get it. But I agree more with the jews than the muslims on theology.
