document.write("When are these terrorist groups that surround Israel going to realise,if they choose to live buy the sword,they must accept the consequences and not cry to the rest of the world.(Who in most cases<br />are either purveyors of,or addicts when it comes to disinformation.). Think about it");
document.write("<h5>Gaza Conflict</h5>");
document.write("Israel has  never anounced that they won't rest until the Palastinians are eradicated from the earth. Neither has Israel announced its rejection of the Palistinians right to land. It is Hamas and Hisbollah that have & is Israel to be whiped from the face of the earth. Talk about negotiating with a bomb! How can there be peace in light of the overt threatening rhetoric of Hammas. It has been reported that Hammas was not letting the wounded out of Gaza, I wonder why they hold children and wounded amongst their troups. Hammas is and absolutly shamefull and wicked organisation!  . Dave");
document.write("<h5>Zionism's fault</h5>");
document.write("Please note there was no Hamas before there was Israeli occupation of Palestine. Israel and the Oppressive West have created these resistance groups. <br />It is a UN right for people to defend themselves when under occupation and being massacred.But it is against every human principle to massacre children and woman.<br />. aa");
document.write("<h5>Gaza</h5>");
document.write("It is amazing where the Zionists get there false information, or rather concoct their stories. How can Hamas let injured children and woman out of the prison of Gaza. Israel and its ally Egypt have the keys and locked it up so that they can be tortured with no one to see the gross human rights abuses.. aa");

document.write("I just can't understand why some land is so important that it justifies permanent murder, in the name of religion no less!  no god advocates death and destruction in the name of \"sacred real estate\" regardless of what resides on said real estate, for goodness sake!  Then again, i expect those involved would simply find something else to kill for if real estate wasn't an issue, seems to be a real trend to kill for anything remotely construed as \"religiously offensive\", these people really have lost the plot altogether. john smith");
document.write("<h5>Apartheid</h5>");
document.write("Israel tries to paint the Palestinians as sub-human, murdering terrorists, while they are the civilised nation. This therefore justifies whatever they do to the Palestinians. Like with South African Apartheid. As history has shown, the best solution is dialogue. Israel refuses to speak to Hamas and has actively opposed Hamas from the day Hamas won a democratic election. Israel has provided arms to the opponents of Hamas within Gaza, has seized money destined for Palestinian civil servants, enforced a crippling and total blockade of Gaza by even preventing UN Humanitarian aid from entering. Under these circumstances Palestinians cannot reasonably be expected to just sit back. Palestinian therefore have taken on their oppressors, one of the most advanced armies on the planet. The Palestinians have a right to Freedom. For 1400 years Jews, Christians and Muslim Palestinians lived in peace, until the scourge of Zionism touched the land. \"Zionism has very many parallels with racism\"-Desmond Tutu. Don't allow Bantustans to exist. Free Palestine!!. Rashaad");

document.write("Lets face it the palestinians had their chance with Arafat and they blew it, or rather he was paid off at the last moment because it was not in the Arab nations interests. They have to have someone to blame for their inability to lift their countries...shame they don't get enough revenue for the millions of barrels of oil they export daily. Hamas has openly stated on numerous occassions that their aim is to drive the jews into the sea - not the sharpest knives in the drawer. How does one negotiate with that! 90% of all terrorism is commited by muslim fundamentalists ALL OVER THE WORLD from Europe to Russia to Asia - what is that about - I suppose the Jews are trying to take over the world?? Hammas is no different from the freakin nazis. So wake up world and smell the coffee or before you know it there will be a muslim fundamelist movement coming to a city near you...there i sprobably one already. If SA was being shelled by 1000's rockets on a daily basis for the last 3 years by Bob the nutter, do you think the current crop of geniuses running the country would stand for it and sit back...probably. but a responsible government has to take action and bomb them into the stone age. The argument that the response is disproportionate doesn't hold water..thats like saying don't shoot the b###d for knifing you he only has a blade...well tough takkies. This nonsence about creating more militants...probably true but at this juncture Israell is fighting for its survival and has to eliminate this cancer. There will never be peace...you can negotiate till the cows come home...Hamas works for Iran and they simply dont want peace..so war is what they will get. The sonner the palestinians realise this and send hamas back to that Iranian madman the better off they will be, but untill their misery will continue.. Iafrica Junky");
