*Applauds* Not ranty at all very well put points and i'm in general agreement.
Although you did mis the part about Israel currently having over 60 un resolutions against it and yet George Double-ya doesn't see this as any reason to act agaisnt israel despite it seemingly being ample reason to act against other middle eastern countries. Check out http://www.ifamericansknew.org/stats/un.html its full of interesting facts.
My main concern is that the very onesided support of Israel by the Uk and US and the very ham fisted methods we've employed with iraq and afganistan. Come across as very very anti muslin.
It worries me that our administrations are demonising islam in this way. This kind of behaviour will make an enemy of islam and i don't think we want that.
It's also very hard for any western led peace talks to be successful then the palestinian side must feel so strongly (and with good reason) that the west is very much on israels side.
Palestine and lebanon of course are not blameless but teh blame should be apportioned more fairly for the west to have any credibility as meiators for peace and *chokes* freedom.
