..."As a jew, I really dislike my people."<br /><br />Wow, talk about getting right up in there, holding nothing back.<br /><br />Personally, I believe that violence often solves nothing at all and I don't think the use of paintball guns was for any other purpose than to cause some kind of spin on the action that mightn't be as negative toward the Israelis. It obviously didn't work.<br /><br />The whole goal of the flotilla was to provoke a full out attack from the Israelites (can I say that instead of Israelis? I like it) in order to cause an international scene. I think the Israelite leaders knew this but they also knew they couldn't do nothing. . . it was a stupid idea, honestly.<br /><br />What might have been better? Simply blocking the ship or using tugs to tow it away from the coast and back out to international waters.<br /><br />The Israelites like to point to the aid they give to the Palestinians as proof that they are trying to help but to me, aid, especially monetarily, is nothing but dependence building.<br /><br />Honestly, I think that there are only three answers there:<br />1. Maintain the current constant police state.<br />2. Genocide.<br />3. Grant genuine freedoms, defend yourself the best you can but allow them to build their own infrastructures and seek their own fortune.<br /><br />Somehow, unfortunately, I don't see no. 3 happening because of the lack of trust here. Israel would really need to be the bigger "man" in doing this, in a BIG way. I think that there's years of racial tension on both sides and a genuine lack of trust. There is true hatred, neither side can genuinely deny.<br /><br />When will we learn that we do not bear the sins of our fathers and neither do our enemies.mdrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02343652629299039790noreply@blogger.com
