Rassool – Thanks for your comment. I had done plenty research into the topic as I saw that comment coming up about me checking the facts, and here is the thing, nothing in this post can be disputed. Everything is backed up factually, go check your sources (which are backed up in multiple places, so even you will find it easy to see that what I have said), go read the Koran, go do your research and then come back to the debating table, I feel that you are actually the one who is in “not know” category and until you can back your statements made, you remain in that category in the eyes of me and by the other comments, it seems in the eye of the general readers of this blog.
You know, I feel that the stated aim of Hamas is enough for Israel to take such actions, their goal: See Israel Destroyed? How would you react to this, put yourself in the position of Israel and think, if you had a group wanting to kill you, and not hiding the fact they want to kill you, what would you do.
I recommend that you look past what you hear in the media, I recommend that you look past the common beliefs and I recommend that you look past the popular opinion and actually do hours and hours of hard research and then, and only then are you ready to come back to the debating table, don’t come here with your insults, until you know the facts, do not come here and make accusations. More so, you must of never heard the saying “No pain, no gain”, that I feel covers the war for peace comment.
Now to be honest with you, I posted this post on my personal blog, and subsequently was asked to post it here, so I admit that I am siding with Israel, although I do not share their belief, I have looked at the clearly stated facts, and have made my decision as to whom to support, and my choice is Israel. I look forward to your read up response.
