Edited on Wed Dec-07-05 12:15 AM by pelsar
i accept that life isnt fair....some get what they want some dont.

If i recall correctly (and we can find your post)...you stated clearly that you "are a democrate" and dont accept the "life isnt fair" arguement.

if so....how do you explain your position to the kurds? ..in light of your posistion with the palestenians?


________________
your response to my "life isnt fair argument:
Your mileage may differ. Of course we will never achieve a perfect equality, but that does not mean we should accept inequality, ......

Yet my question was still not answered. Are you saying that it is reasonable, in the case of the I/P conflict, to throw international law, moral justice and human rights out the window, because they are all examples of that silly and anachronistic concept of "fairness"?


Note the qualifier: in the case of the I/P conflict...which as i understand it, means in other conflicts (kurds) its perfectly ok to throw out moral justice.....

interesting view point...i would define it as "not being fair to the kurds"....how do you define it?
