exactly , while we're enjoying chess , children are dying of diseases in the occupied territories and suffering extreme poverty and humiliation everyday .. most of you prolly don't give a damn about it anyway , your fridge is full ..

This is Ehud Olmert, a president without the courage to confront the security needs Israel is asked for. Hopefully he will go and another leader will come, that won't look for appeasement with the terrorists and won't give any explanations to the foolish liberals of the world. ...60 years, and that's only the beginning!!!
... while the entire rest of the Middle East is teaching their children that Jews and Israel are the ultimate evil (to various degrees), and have waged several wars to drive Israel back into the sea.
Yes what Israel is doing is unacceptable in any western democracy (though not as unheard of as one might like to think). But Israel is also existing in an environment that is unparalleled pretty much everywhere else in the world.
If I was around would have built the palestinians nice houses in the Sinai and made it a Palestinian state, but the jews wouldn't move them after what happened in the 20th century...
