(7,515 posts)As to Israeli atrocities...don't be too hard on the Israelis, the Palestinians refuse to police themselves and do nothing to stop the terrorism carried out in their name.
As a counterpoint, look at what the people of Libya did after terrorists killed our ambassador and 3 other embassy employees. Hundreds took to the streets with signs of apology and grief over the loss of Ambassador Stevens. Days later thousands attacked the headquarters of numerous militias and demanded that the government remove the armaments from these militias.... Ordinary citizens can be very effective.
Israel copies the United States. We lose 2,740 US citizens in the attacks of 9/11 and we have killed unknown thousands of Iraqis, Pakistanis and Afghans...lowest estimate of Iraqi losses is 108,000.
