- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -53/+189Now watch as Amnesty International is accused of anti-Semitism. Zionists are such douche bags.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -24/+141I want to see this on the evening news on Fox or CBS or ABC. What is the chance that will happen?
- stvalentino, on 04/17/2008, -25/+131OMG, Palestinians always have all their properties demolished without any warnings!
- worldinmyeyes, on 04/17/2008, -29/+129Yep, all the American Christians who are duped into supporting Israel at all costs have no idea this crap happens, thanks to a deceitful corporate media and deceitful or duped pastors/prophets. And when will common Jews wake up and realize how corrupt their government and oppose the Zionist movement?
- TrevaLVF, on 04/17/2008, -20/+101Still fanning the flames of war...
- Feralvision, on 04/17/2008, -25/+105Shocking and disgraceful. The pathetic thing is that this kind of thing is the norm nowadays.
- worldinmyeyes, on 04/17/2008, -22/+94I really never woke up to the plight of the Palestinians before watching a video (I believe on google) that showed what their lives are like, how they cannot travel in certain zones and at times have curfews, and how the American media surpresses the information. Anyone have any good links to videos about this very important topic?
- brendonla, on 04/17/2008, -10/+74None. That's just how it is with the media here in the U.S.: Israel = good, Palestinians = bad.
When the Israelis were killed in the school recently by Hamas, that was front page news on the L.A. Times.
But when Palestinians are killed, they don't bother to cover it -- and if they do, it's buried somewhere inside. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -28/+91Typical Israeli behavior. With the US on your side, the MSM in your back pocket, who cares about ***** Palestinian homes...or people for that matter!
- youtellme8, on 04/17/2008, -20/+67And STILL the USA will continue to support Israel despite its continual human rights abuses. As an American I am ashamed of my country's diplomatic choices.
- cobbwobbles, on 04/17/2008, -21/+67Blame the Israel Lobby, they've made Israel an unstoppable power in the region, with US backing, who's going to stand against them? No one. If they want people to gtfo off 'their' land, they just push them off, because they don 't HAVE to think about them from a human perspective, they don't HAVE to work toward peace. They get everything they want by bullying.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -8/+48They are awake. Read Israeli newspapers, look into Israeli peace groups. There is a large and vocal opposition in Israel.
It is here where dissent has been muzzled by AIPAC.
Fortunately a group of pro-peace Israelis has opened up a lobbying firm in Washington named J Street to counteract the machinizations of AIPAC. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -18/+55I feel that you mean that they have to don't build houses in their country because they know that israeli military are going to demolish the houses .. then where do you suggest for these people to live ? you going to invite them ?
- RobotCitizen, on 04/17/2008, -8/+42It's not easy to be a Jew that speaks against Israeli policy. Anyone that does is ostracized as a "self-hating Jew".
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -18/+52Yes, they do this all the time, does that make it any better? IMO it makes it much worse.
Check out this site http://www.icahd.org/eng/ it is an Israeli group dedicated to rebuilding demolished Palestinian homes in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. They have figures on how few times Palestinians get permission to build homes. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -4/+37They treat you like a lady, Jimmy....
- cheeseron, on 04/17/2008, -6/+37exactly. then they wonder why there are terrorists.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -5/+36i guess you don't think that women should voice their opinion Jimmy....so now you are sexist as well!...big suprise!....
- neocognitism, on 04/17/2008, -32/+61All hail Caterpillar, our wonderful American company that manufactures those bulldozers. What a noble purpose, to be used as a IOF terrorist tool to destroy civilians' homes.
Speaking of similar atrocities, does anyone remember the orphanage closure story from a month ago?
http://digg.com/world_news/MONSTROUS_Israeli_Army_ ...
Remember how all the Ziontologists said it wasn't true? Not only is it true, but it's been working it's way through the courts. At the moment, the IOF has issued a seven-day order to vacate the entire premises, which includes all 5000 orphans. The orphanage's lawyers are contesting the order and there was supposed to be a decision by the court a couple days ago, but nothing has happened.
Cross your fingers and let's hope this illegal war crime does not get carried out. Further information can be heard daily from the Flashpoints program and the Against the Grain program on KPFA. Go to KPFA.org or else look for KPFA in the "public" category in iTunes Radio. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -16/+43No, it's about time you got yours checked. I have been to both 'undisputed Israeli land' (in fact all of Palestine is disputed) and to the OPT (Occupied Palestinian Territories). I rode on buses, went to cafes, visited universities etc. in Israel and I visited Palestinian universities (when I could get there), and towns. Even as a foreigner or an Israeli you cannot travel freely in the OPT and as a Palestinian it is completely impossible. It takes Palestinian students hours to travel distances within the OPT that should be only 15 minutes apart. That is if they can get there at all. At checkpoints you get harassed by teenager with a uniform and a gun. If you are very lucky you make it through but ti takes valuable time every day. The there are Jewish settlers who hold regular pogroms into Palestinian villages, sometimes while the Israeli army has the Palestinians under curfew. They beat people up, verbally abuse them, spit at them, destroy Palestinian property (favourite hobby: shooting at the water tanks that are on all Palestinian houses).
And that is not even talking about the fact that they can be arrested arbitrarily and held indefinitely without any charge or get killed in an Israeli air raid or other attack (the ratio of Palestinian civilians getting killed compared to militants is even worse than civilians compared to soldiers getting killed on the Israeli side, check the statistics at B'Tselem: http://www.btselem.org/English/Statistics/Casualti ... )
Really, if you want to know what Palestinian lives are like, you should really try living there for a while. The fear on the Israeli side sucks but the Palestinians live with that fear a lot more. And on top of that there is all the other crap. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -17/+44AMericans bought those bulldozers
Just take a look at the foreign aid we send Israel every year. Over 7 billion last year alone, oh, and we constantly forgive Israeli debts. What good has it done them? They have some of the worst human rights violations in the region with the apartheid state they impose on Palestine.
However, I can forgive them. I'm an American, and I know how it sucks to be accused of responsibility for your country's actions when the government is out of the citizen's control. - eatzyklonb, on 04/17/2008, -6/+29Who are you to demand I believe in your religion? So you're saying yours is the one true religion and the entire rest of the world has no rights under your laws. Well, my god says, your god is a girly-man. Who are you to question it?
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -6/+28just like God told bush to invade invade Iraq...do you question this Jimmy?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/sto ... - maxtangent, on 04/17/2008, -41/+63You can safely bet Digg won't allow this on the front page.
- Ne007, on 04/17/2008, -16/+38Another reason to detest Israel.
They could sodomize 10,000 Palestinian children and I would still be called an Anti-semite for speaking out against them.
What? Are they free to perform atrocities with impunity? - juliankauai, on 04/17/2008, -13/+34sounds like ethnic cleansing. what if they bulldozed your home?
- pintomp3, on 04/17/2008, -4/+25israel struck first, it was an illegal preventive war:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preventive_war#Arab-I ... - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -2/+23He said reputable.
- neocognitism, on 04/17/2008, -7/+27Reputable Source, Hagee worshiper?
- wootup, on 04/17/2008, -11/+31Accidentally buried you, you actually make a very good point: we SHOULD be doing something about it.
For starters, never vote for or donate to a pro-Israeli candidate (this includes McCain, Obama and Hillary).
Also, boycott Israeli goods and services: http://www.boycottisraeligoods.org/
***** the IDF - galeninjapan, on 04/17/2008, -13/+33And all the candidates still cling to the idea that Israel is one of our greatest allies.
- awills, on 04/17/2008, -1/+21Wow, you just ***** blew my mind. You are the reason people hate religion.
- ramises, on 04/17/2008, -5/+24Yeah, like Israel didn't just drop rockets on central Gaza TODAY killing 14 civilians, 5 of them children...
http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/04/17/africa/17mi ... - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -19/+37Oh, and look, 213 diggs and still not on the front page. Personally, I never bury stories, even stories I disagree with I digg up because I want to discuss them. The Zionist bury brigade must be working overtime to bury this story. As, usual they don't even want a debate. I don't blame them, Israel's actions are indefensible.
- brendonla, on 04/17/2008, -11/+29And of course, that makes it OK for IDF or any other Israelis to come along and destroy their homes. *sarcasm intended*
- ramises, on 04/17/2008, -3/+21Yes, military targets. That's why their tanks blew up a car clearly marked "TV" and "PRESS" killing 23-year-old Reuters cameraman Fadel Shana.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7351024.stm - Feralvision, on 04/17/2008, -9/+27John Pilgers 'Palestine is still the issue' documentary defo one to watch. It's on google videos.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -5/+23Hey finally beat the Zionist bury brigade. It only took 246 diggs.
- avengingturnip, on 04/17/2008, -6/+23Belongs to Israel? Is it public land? How do you justify driving people off of land they individually own.? We are all created in God's image and all people deserve equal protection of the law whether they were there many years ago or not - and that point is debatable. Not being an Israeli does not give anyone carte blanche to steal from that person. There is a commandment against it. A commandment.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -11/+28We know what AIPAC is, and frankly, you're not ***** welcome you Jewish disgrace. I'm a Jew, and I am the first to say AIPAC and Israel's Elitist government is what is destroying THIS country, relations in the Middle East and Jewish history. All the great Jewish scientists, philosopers and leaders are being overshadowed by the ***** kikes (yes I said kikes) who care so much about a piece of ***** land in a hot and dusty part of the world.
***** Jerusalem. There's more important things in life than rock and rubble, how about respecting your faith and customs and helping your fellow man. I wish Hitler didn't kill so many doctors, lawyers and intellects and rather swapped them with the Zionist cockbags who ended up making Israel into the hell hole it is today. I support a Jewish territory, country and nation so long as it's not controlled by some fascist gang of child raping idiots it has turned into. - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -3/+20U.S. politicians are Israel's lap dogs, especially Hillary Clinton, the Heb wannabe. When an Israeli bulldozer purposely ran over that American girl Rachel Corrie for protesting the demolition of Palestinian homes to build Jewish settlements, the U.S. politicians apologized to Israel for her causing them trouble and staining their bulldozer with her guts. Read the newspapers when it happened about 4 years ago. She didn't die in vain though, because it was the little blurb they gave her on the back page of my newspaper that opened my eyes to the atrocities being committed by Israel with the Christian Zionists' blessings in this country. Never forget Rachel Corrie:
http://rachelcorrie.org/ - chipsngravy, on 04/17/2008, -8/+24*yawns* Because as we all know Amnesty International is nothing more than a mouthpiece for "raghead" terrorists.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -7/+23oh so since they did it before that makes it ok .. I feel so relieved
douchebag - pintomp3, on 04/17/2008, -4/+20so if someone got shot walking down a certain block before, it's the victims fault if they get shot walking down the same block?
- Wolverine82, on 04/17/2008, -5/+20I love it how people scream antisemitism as soon as something bad about Israel comes up. It's like you can't say anything negative about Israel or you're gonna be labeled as 'hating Jews.' In the meanwhile, we should just sit back and let Israel just go in and systematically wipe-out a group of people. Oh wait, we shouldn't just sit back - we should give them a whole arsenal of weapons, a ridiculous amount of money and support, and THEN sit back.
- inactive, on 04/17/2008, -4/+19Usually it comes in the form of an American-made Sidewinder missile fired into a Palestinian apartment building from an American-made Apache helicopter from 5 miles away. Bulldozers are quite slower and noisier.
- pintomp3, on 04/17/2008, -0/+15very true. there is more criticism of israel's policies in israel than there is in the US:
http://www.btselem.org/English/ - inactive, on 04/17/2008, -3/+18This is a story that will never see the light of day in the U.S. The Jews control all of the TV networks, so they'll just continue to feed stories to dumb Americans that make it seem like Arabs just like to blow themselves up for fun.
It was funny when Jimmy Carter wrote that book exposing Israel for apartheid conditions (yes, a ***** wall separating Jews from Palestinians as well as Israeli checkpoints everywhere is blatant apartheid). I saw more Jewish critics like Dershowitz discrediting Carter than reviews for the book. Same with the Mel Gibson bashing. Attack and discredit the man, instead of addressing the truth. - notque, on 04/17/2008, -2/+17There's been international agreement on the borders. The U.S. stops supporting their atrocities, the conflict will end.
- truthmatters, on 04/17/2008, -13/+28I watched this kind of thing happen in the documentary "Gaza Strip." It was shocking to see the Palestinians homes being destroyed as children helplessly threw rocks at the tanks. What I hate about the U.S supporting Israel regardless of their human rights violations, is that it seems to all be routed in the biblical prophecies of the Armageddon. I thought we had separation of church and state in America.
