    Sorry, this whole mess has me upset, and I haven't been able to reach an Israeli friend of mine. And I'm sick of one-sided hate, usually coming from ill-informed "liberals" that act like the Palestinians are justified in their violence like it's a US race riot instead of absolute bloody mayhem, who have never met a member of Hamas or the Muslim Brotherhood in real life and seen the murderous hate in their eyes, who never got the soles of their shoes sticky from blood in the streets from a suicide bombing in the Dolphinairum that wiped out over 150 lives in less than a second, who never contemplated the only reason that they are alive right now is because they stopped for a cup of coffee and missed their bus which then exploded killing everyone aboard. Israel is absolutely wrong in a lot of its policies, needs a fair constitution that treats its citizens equally, and like every other country has made bloody terrible decisions from time to time. But the ahistorical propaganda successes that Palestinians have had with bleeding hearts that are supposedly educated absolutely pisses me off. "Israel oppresses us", yes, because you let your house be used by snipers, yes, because you officially sanctioned bombers to come murder people, etc. It doesn't justify flattening the Gaza Strip, but to think that Israel is just going to want to talk about it is patently absurd.
