Your point about collective punishment is a valid one, DN. But in reality, the majority of Palestinians tend to harbor these terrorists.

Maybe these "disciples" of the Lord are lacking in discipline.

Arafat one step closer to kissing his butt adios!! re Haifa bombing this day!!

You are aware that God has said that you should not kill people aren't you?

Naturally this applies equally to Mohammed Yasser Abdul-Ra'ouf Qudwa Al-Husseini too. (President Yasser Arafat.)

The instructions which He gave you are a "recipe" for peaceful living.

The problem is really that you don't regulate yourselves properly.

How many Presidents do you have in this one area?

I've written before that "the obstacle to peace is the refusal of the U.S. and Israel to acknowledge the world consensus on this issue. This is reflected in many UN votes where virtually the whole world is in total agreement - - except for Israel and the U.S."

Once again, we've had a lopsided vote. The UN Security Council voted to condemn Israel for its recent attack on Syria. The lone opposing vote was from the U.S.

As I've written before, the U.S. is often the lone "no" vote against a world that is united about what to do in the Middle East.

The United States has vetoed a Palestinian-drafted UN Security Council resolution seeking to bar Israel from extending its Aparthied Wall deep into the West Bank.

Once again, the U.S. vote was the sole "no" vote.

The UN General Assembly has voted overwhelmingly in favor of a resolution calling on Israel to halt construction on the West Bank
Wall.

Only four countries voted against: the U.S., Israel, Micronesia and the Marshall Islands.

The situation in the Middle East is often portray as one wherein it is difficult to find consensus. In reality, there is often overwhelming consensus on what is the just solution - - blocked only by the U.S. with a handful of stooges in tow.

Note, once again, the lopsided vote which is commonplace.
