This history of this animosity is long. Snapshots of the current state (even in the last few years), does not fully explain it all._Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04137514341591666706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968347335729666539.post-78138531748230050052008-12-28T17:00:00.000+00:002008-12-28T17:00:00.000+00:00We voted for change, yes, but I don't think that w...We voted for change, yes, but I don't think that will include a change in our policies regarding Israel. This is one of those cases that I will never understand - how the oppressor is viewed as the oppressee by most people is astounding to me (in my country anyway, I'm not sure how Europeans feel about this).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968347335729666539.post-64267264498049590722008-12-28T15:12:00.000+00:002008-12-28T15:12:00.000+00:00I did not want it to sound as if i was linking the...I did not want it to sound as if i was linking the increase in bombing because it was Christmas, but it the people of that area had got their act together this time of year could be there biggest money spinner, how many Christians would love to spend time(and money) in the holy land at this time of year.Bretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11807796517043303774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968347335729666539.post-17128610325484768572008-12-28T13:10:00.000+00:002008-12-28T13:10:00.000+00:00It should always be a time for 'peace and goodwill...It should always be a time for 'peace and goodwill to all men' and I do think what it going on in the world is atrocious and that Palestine is just as bad as Israel when it comes to bombings, but I do find it a bit ironic that you refer to Christmas and imply that Israel's bombings are all the more severe due to that when Israel is a Jewish country and Palestine is Islamic - nothing to do with Christmas!Shutterspyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07933936629685995574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8968347335729666539.post-66354738105306540342008-12-28T12:56:00.000+00:002008-12-28T12:56:00.000+00:00Great post Brett.
