*Sigh* Eddy, Bardsley, and Rasky. Like three little ducklings in a row, all quacking in agreement.

So who's tribal land are you currently occupying? Cree? Soux? Iriquois? Apache? Unless you live in Rhode Island, you're living on stolen soil.
The Americas were conquered several hundred years ago by the "evil" Europeans. My understanding of the word 'conquer' is that the people who are defeated subsequently give up the rights to the land (or whatever). So I have every right to be sitting here on what used to be Apache land, because it was conquered and taken, not stolen. (It isn't like the Indians were doing anything with it anyway.)
The same goes for Israel. Except they have conquered the land over and over again (the 6 Day War, etc), and have even offered concessions to the defeated. They offered the Palestinians citizenship, even when their fellow Arab countries didn't want them, and have offered them their own government and now even their own state.
And what do the Israelis get in return? The Palestinians strap bombs on and blow themselves up in the middle of crowded malls and shops filled with innocent people.
The Palestinians either need to realize that they're not going to accomplish anything through their glorious infatada, or they can keep going out to throw pebbles at Israeli tanks and then cry for more blood when their children are slain.

Or we could do the sensible thing, and let the un in to investigate Isreal's use of force...
Israel has every right to use force. They're defending their country!!!
