Of course barriers can work. tritsofme Oct 2023 #11

Build more tables not walls AntivaxHunters Oct 2023 #17

Cool slogan, I guess? But it wasn't tables that stopped the suicide bombing campaign. tritsofme Oct 2023 #20

It also wasn't tables that caused Israeli snipers AntivaxHunters Oct 2023 #22

Obfuscate however you wish. The security barrier in the West Bank and enhanced security measures tritsofme Oct 2023 #29

That's reactionary logic AntivaxHunters Oct 2023 #38

Hamas, along with others, have declared that the death of all Jews is the answer. yagotme Oct 2023 #45

My solution is peace AntivaxHunters Oct 2023 #97

You keep saying the word "peace". yagotme Oct 2023 #102

Bus bombings. Remember those? Take a ride with a suicide bomber. Peace, peace. Hekate Oct 2023 #134

Looks like a wall to keep out war criminal terrorists. Tomconroy Oct 2023 #12

Trump says the same thing about the wall he wants on the Mexico border. Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #87

The Palestinians actually have a record for committing Tomconroy Oct 2023 #96

You mean Hamas? Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #103

They don't wear uniforms, nor rank insignia. yagotme Oct 2023 #108

Neither do Mexican drug lords. Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #130

Yes. Same reason as Israel, we need to know who's crossing. yagotme Oct 2023 #135

There have been innumerable Palestinian terrorist Tomconroy Oct 2023 #110

"All"? My stats background tells me that's a bold statement. Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #132

You're in public, giving an interview about your government's policies. yagotme Oct 2023 #137

So, you agree that "all" Palestinians don't support Hamas, then? Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #144

Yes, of course. Never said anything otherwise. yagotme Oct 2023 #146

So there are things that the world and Israel could do to decrease that support. Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #151

So if Mexico's government said it wanted to destroy America, and it kept bombing America and Doodley Oct 2023 #161

Yes. Being nice to Hamas isn't one of those things, either. yagotme Oct 2023 #164

I have never said we should be nice to Hamas. Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #166

But there are those that think we should be nice to them. yagotme Oct 2023 #168

OK, so I see something problematic with your post. Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #169

"When their own politicians are royally screwing them over, possibly lying to them." yagotme Oct 2023 #173

Palestinians are free to travel to any country that will take them. Tomconroy Oct 2023 #145

Or, and this may seem crazy to you, Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #155

For argument's sake, let's just say that it does keep them "in". yagotme Oct 2023 #149

So in order to stop a very small minority of people from doing something Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #153

You assume it's a tiny minority. Tomconroy Oct 2023 #158

What do you think the percentage of the population of Palestine is who are terrorists? Cuthbert Allgood Oct 2023 #163

Reportedly 40,000 in one spot. yagotme Oct 2023 #167

I think most are happy with the war crimes perpetrated Tomconroy Oct 2023 #175

Do you have any data on that or is it just your opinion? thx in advance uponit7771 Oct 2023 #189
