Do Palestinians in Gaza have the Right to Defend themselves against Israeli Aggression?

SEE VIDEO: Do Palestinians in Gaza have the Right to Defend themselves against Israeli Aggression?
Why are we expected to allow Israel to continually steal more land and oppress, brutalize and murder civilians? Why is Israel allowed to come in and occupy the West Bank and threaten the lives and health and well-being of Palestinians? Why are we expected to allow Israel to continue a siege against Gaza?

Why are we expected to stand by while Israel attacks Palestinians? Why is Israel allowed to terrorize innocent civilians in the West Bank and Gaza?

"Settlement activity continues to make the potential peace map more difficult … On this, I should also be clear of the United States’ longstanding position: we consider settlements illegitimate and an impediment to progress on peace negotiations." - White House Coordinator Philip Gordon

"How will Israel remain democratic and Jewish if it attempts to govern the millions of Palestinian Arabs who live in the West Bank?  How will it have peace if it is unwilling to delineate a border, end the occupations and allow for Palestinian sovereignty, security, and dignity?  How will we prevent other states from isolating Israel or supporting Palestinian efforts in international bodies if Israel is not seen as committed to peace?" - White House Coordinator Philip Gordon http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2014/07/08/remarks-prepared-white-house-coordinator-middle-east-north-africa-and-gu

why change the topic away from Israel and Palestine?

I posted a video about Israel in the Israel/Palestine Group and you have ben jumping up and down to try to divert focus from that. Why are you doing that? Why don't you deal with the excellent points made by Abby Martin and Max Blumenthal and the points I added including how the Palestinian man whose store video cameras captured Israel murdering Palestinians was threatened by Israeli soldiers:



As Human Rights Watch pleads: "Israel: Stop Threatening Witness to Killings"

"Israel should be investigating these deaths, but instead its forces seem intent on intimidating witnesses and ensuring future abuses won’t be caught on camera. The Israeli response to the killing of two boys looks more like an attempt to cover up than a serious investigation." - Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director

"There were many threats against my family. They told me that I was up against a very powerful force, and I am very small. One of them said, "We will squish you like a bug, you are nothing." ... one of the soldiers told me that they will unleash dogs on my children."

Thanks for the info Catherina

Thank you for keeping on top of the situation. I thought the U.S. response to being challenged on their claims was weak:



Do you have any counterpoints to offer for the latest U.S. propaganda they uploaded today?:


About Yanukovych, the "he left" excuse for why the coup was legitimate is ridiculous. I would like to list a few strong points to answer this video. If you want to record audio or video of any point you want to make I could included it in my new video deconstructing their propaganda. Or if you just want to post text, that's good too. I plan on recommending people read your journal just as have recommended http://www.moonofalabama.org/
