Continued incursions into the West Bank exacerbate the tension in the region and will not subside until the world community finds the backbone to demand Israel to stop and adhere to international law. Many Israeli Jewish citizens and American Jews find Zionism appalling and have demanded change. The Congress of the United States in muted and weakened by the growing neoconservative movement, the financially powerful Israeli lobby, the military industrial lobbyists, the corporate media fascists and sadly, the apathetic and ignorant American people; who constitutionally have all the power. Unfortunately American global imperialism marches in lock step with Israel’s regional nationalistic expansion movement. This insidious partnership has become the contemporary axis of evil. On top of all this, other Arab countries are apathetic towards the plight of the Palestinians. Who is going to step up and help these people? I do believe there is hope forthcoming as the growth of nascent independent broadcast entities (e.g., Link TV, Al Jazeera, etc.) as well as many Internet websites will become the “looking glass of truth” for the world. It’s just going to takes time for the momentum of conscience to build before the groundswell of people open their eyes and give attention to this unbearable and unnecessary human suffering.

The Jewish State, is after all, like the United States, a torture state. Our president is proud to have us be a Christian Torture State.

Arab media has no choice but to be bias,not to have the Arab slant portrayed would be suicide, it would be asking for your own beheading. More recently BBC after Johnsons return from his kidknapping, they are running scared. Even the British new history books, deleted the Nazi death camps, for fear of offending the Arabs. Arafat was famous for telling the west one thing, and competely opposite to his own people. All Arab media has no choice. Israel only needs to know, what they are willing to live with. Rockets keep coming, scortched earth policy. The palestinians voted Hamas in Power, and if their public gets punished for the rockets, so be it. By voting for Hamas, they are begging for collective punishment.Historically the majority of Arab Nations do not wish an end to this conflict, do not wish to recognize Israel and the roots of ISLAM that came from the first Jew Abraham. Cut your roots, life becomes short. Peter Thankyou. Arab media has no choice but to be bias,not to have the Arab slant portrayed would be suicide, it would be asking for your own beheading.

The moment it is revealed that this is not the case, they want to collect their marbles and yell "not fair." Isreal can't take any criticism, especially if the criticism is true.
