I have been reading quite a bit on the history of bad feelings between
the two groups involved and still don't understand it all. I did read one
comment that I agree sums up this awful war. Here is the quote.


"While I fully support Isreal's right to defend herself against a constant barage of rockets, it is lamentable than so many innocents are dying. Why does the world sit back and watch the terrorists continual rocket fire and say nothing? Unfortunately Zawahiri and his ilk know that Isreal can't really win in the court of public opinion because his pals use the innocents as sheilds. They goad Isreal into a fight and then hide behind the childrern. When they die, they blame Isreal for the massacre instead of taking responsibility. When will the Palestinian people realize they are being held hostage not by the Isrealies but by Hamas, Islamic Jihad and Bin Laden???? God help us all... "
