Israeli Settlements

[Thoth]

I didn't want to mention present company.

Gosh darn Canadian politeness again!

We also burned and looted Toronto.

Another Yankeestan Fail.



Turruonuh needs burning almost as badly as Calgary does.

Your epic failure to do so is yet one more reason why you will be added to the Empire Of Canadia.

Eat it Yankee *****es. Your days are numbered.

[Whoha]

I see your tiny frontier encounter and raise you with the largest land battle of the war. Talk about a massive one sided victory for the Americans and total humiliating defeat for the British. The Americans were even outnumbered almost three to one yet managed to kill or wound almost 2500 British to only about 300 Americans. Damn, that must have been humiliating.

In all fairness Andrew Jackson counts for atleast a thousand soldiers.

[Evil Knevil]

The settlements are a calculated attempt to seize land by incremental means. If Israel really thinks it owns it, and can do what it wants a conquering power, it would fully annex the territories instead of trying to colonise them.

[Felch]

That's utter and complete nonsense. Salami tactics are sound and sensible. Besides, I doubt that the anti-Israel folks would be okay with Israel outright annexing the occupied territories.

[Cort Haus]

Many anti-Israel folks are not ok with Israel even existing.

[Berzerker]

Sorry, imperialism was a limited-time offer.

[Dr Strangelove]

As Palestine furthers its bid for UN membership Isaerli politicians hint that they may punish the Palestinians by changing the status of West Bank and East Jerusalem settlements.

What difference does it make? Doesn't Israel just ignore UN resolutions?

[Felch]

Doesn't everybody?

[Hauldren Collider]

Doesn't everybody?

QFT, no one gives a **** about the UN, which is the way things should be.

Didn't a UN resolution bring down the apartheid regime in South Africa? Sure, participation in the economic boycott was entirely voluntary, but it still worked.
