I thought you were a realist in IR. What does a realist care about morals or right and wrong?.

It is also a strategy that has failed to advance the interests of those that practiced it (America, Israel, IRA, etc.) throughout history. Which is one of the primary reasons I don't like the strategy.Originally posted by Imran Siddiqui

That's okay. I don't like the whole general area.

I think HRW is a fairly credible source. But...
I always thought they opposed Plan Colombia....Human Rights Watch has been on my sh*t list ever since they lobbied for Plan Columbia. They have very little moral authority or credibility anymore.
Do you have a link?

So you are denying that the continued presence of Israelis in the occupied territories are in fact illegal? If the territories do not belong to Israel, their presence makes them invaders.Originally posted by Natan
The issue is whether Israel should be classified under "invaders and oppressors" who should be "resisted" by "all means." I think that once you say yes, you kind of give up your claim to be neutral.
So you are in fact saying that the destruction of Palestinian refugee camps are not acts of oppression?(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

So you are saying that the Israels can eradicate Palestine, but the Palestinians cannot seek to do the same?Originally posted by MrFun
I already have the facts straight, Shi -- the extreme Palestinians and their lowly terrorists seek to completely eradicate Israel.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

If Israel was seeking to erradicate Palestine, they have had the power for quite sometime to do it more quickly and efficently than the effort they have put forth so far.Originally posted by Urban Ranger

Yes, they have engaged in warfare against civilians. So,have Israel and the US among many other countries much to thier collective detriments. What's your point?Originally posted by Urban Ranger

I would call the use of troops a waste of resources as a primary weapon in a war of eradication. For example, Israel would have used strategic bombing against Jenin if thier primary purpose was to kill as many civilians as possible.Originally posted by Urban Ranger

IMO, Palestinian leaders have to accept either the Giza strip as their territory with some increase in its size, or they have to accept the West Bank as its territory, with its size decreased somewhat.Originally posted by Urban Ranger

One or the other, but I doubt that this was even considered in any negotiations. This is just my opinion on what the terms should be.
Having territory of one, same country on both sides of another country is just plain ridiculous, not to mention any inter-border security problems.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.Comment
