I admit I took a leave of absence from reality for a bit while on vacation which included following the Gaza withdrawal in Israel..
My views on Israel are often not shared by liberal Democrat friends
My views on Bush are not shared by my right wing readers who OFTEN like my views on Israel
No matter they are my views
So sue me
Took some time to read Ocean Guy who is on my linkie love list dears
And who is not someone I agree with on everything..but I did agree with a lot of what he had to say about the Gaza withdrawal..
I guess I too kinda think its gonna be like the old
“No good deed goes un-punished”
Israel pulls out of the Gaza pushed its own people from their homes in order to have peace with the Palestinians
And then what
How many minutes or seconds will elapse before the Palestinians move into the Gaza and then want more and the blood shed starts all over again
Only with there being less of Israel then before..
We sit here in America and think that a Palestinian state is the only just way to go
Except over there you have Palestinians leaders who are saying
Yes give us that
And then we will come after the rest
From Ocean Guy
We have this little ditty on the subject
**
Says Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal: ["The Gaza withdrawal] is the beginning of the end for the Zionist program in the region."
Says Hamas leader in Gaza Mahmud Zahar: "This army will continue to defend our homeland as long as one inch of Palestine remains occupied."
Giving the Arabs such a huge victory while not getting even a day of peace in return, makes no sense for Israel's long term security situation.
The signal of weakness being sent to the Arabs will only invite more terror. Showing the PLO and Hamas that suicide bombers are effective, will only invite more of them. And what happens then?

Thanks Ocean Guy…
So what is the answer
If Israel does not give the Palestinians their state they are branded as tyrants world wide and the world says yes you deserve to be murdered..you are oppressing a people
Never mind that these are predominantly the people who were thrown out by Jordan who don’t seem to get bombed much anymore since as Gus pointed out when the suicide bombers started on Jordon ….Jordon responded by killing their extended families..
Tough to bomb a country that works that way
But Israel
no Israel is the democracy
The country that has arabs in the Knesset
Who gives more rights to its Arab citizens (BY FAR) then they would have in the countries of their origin
But Israel is never right
If they don’t give the Palestinian state
They are dictators
If they do
They are a bit smaller
A bit weaker
And ripe for more picking
There is no right decision
So Israel is giving back the Gaza
Israel once again is doing the right thing
The good thing
The nice guy thing
Without even a moments peace as their reward
Shall I take this post up again
The moment we read about a school bus filled with Jewish children
Blown up
AFTER
There is a Palestinian State?
The celebrations are beginning…a huge achievement for Arabs everywhere for suicide bombers for terrorists for Islamic fundamentalists
And hopefully
We must say hopefully
For the peace loving people of Palestine too
Jews are once again leaving their home
Heads hung
Having to start over
A familiar
All too familiar image to
Jews around the world
A high price to pay
But will it
Will it
Will it
Buy peace
History
Tells us
Don’t bet on it
