Christians Blindly dislike them, Israel Kills them: The Plight for the Palestinians

Thanks Pat Robertson! He has definitely made a big contribution to society. He might one day want to answer as to why Palestinians do not deserve to live in the land that they had occupied for generations and generations. As if the Palestinians have not had enough. Christians have come to hate them, all because they think that the Bible orders them t0- maybe we missed that particular passage that tells those (who are not even Jews, to hate people they've never met.)- Again, thanks Pat.

Let us seriously consider their situation. In the last couple of weeks, Israel has just been working hard oppressing the settlements, and basically being the terror nation that everyone else excluding the US, thinks of the country. It is easy to call up on Hamas and their "awful" actions, but have we really looked at the issue closer, or have we let- as always-the media, and the US foreign policy makers, cloud our judgment?

You see, it is easy to speak of African colonization, because there is proof that actually, the Europeans came killed and plundered, and then left the continent almost bare. Not so with the Palestinians, they were at first silent victims, and when they spoke they were terrorists. But think about, they have been silently, oppressed, crushed down, and almost destroyed. Off course this is no excuse for Hamas and their terror activities. They are guilty of killings, but Israel to shoulder the blame for that. Even Ehud Barak, a prominent Israeli Politician, admitted that if he had been born a Palestinian, Hamas would have had his vote and participation.

Isn't time we really revisited this whole question of Palestine and Israel. Let us not kid ourselves- Israel is not a Jewish nation. Religion plays little in this. Yes, we sympathize, and some of us empathize as we have gone through horrible, tragic episodes, but it is time that this silent genocide came to an end. Or maybe, even made the headlines. Why are we permitting the circle of oppression to continue? Where is the plight for the palestinians. Whether Palestinians and Israelis like it or not- if they want to go to religious extent- they are blood brothers.
