Miriam, it is time to start rereading some of the articles posted here and even
your own message below. How much longer can we white wash Israel's expansionism
and the half century long holocaust that it has brought with it. How often do
we have to hear the apologists say "they only want Palestine". It is akin to
those that said the Nazi's "only want Poland". Well we know what that brought.

We're giving them 3 billion dollars a year to support this regime and Obama has
promised between 1 and 2 billion in additional military funding each year so
that Israel will stop fighting the Iran deal. There has been no rebuilding in
Gaza. Many Gazans are so angry at Hamas for agreeing for things to remain at
the status quo by signing a cease fire with Israel that they are turning to
ISIS members who have infiltrated into Gaza. And to complicate the situation
even more, Israel has joined with Saudi Arabia to support ISIS in Syria because
Israel wants to eliminate the current Syrian government.

Gotta keep them Terrorists under control. Flipping the Bird should also be a
sign that the Flipper is a Terrorist. And watch their eyes.
That hostile look might well turn into an attack. Israel might also want to be
wary of smiling strangers, and babies who might be wired with explosives in
their diapers. Maybe Israel could develop a secret code word so they can tell
the Terrorists from the Good Guys. But then that wouldn't work, because once
it was spoken the secret would be out. Gads! Protecting the People from
Terrorists is hard work.

The Israeli Parliament has approved a tough law that could send people
to prison for up to 20 years for throwing rocks at moving vehicles.
Palestinian
activists and officials have condemned the law as "repressive" and
"racist."

interview on Tuesday.
He said that while Israel continues to target Palestinians, shooting
deaths of Palestinian protesters were committed "with absolutely no
consequences whatsever".
Late on Monday, Israeli lawmakers voted 69 to 17 to increase the
punishments, approving legislation proposed after a wave of
Palestinian protests last year in East Jerusalem.
Qadura Fares, head of the Palestinian Prisoner Club, an organization
that advocates on behalf of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails,
said the new law was "racist".
"This law is hateful and contradicts the most basic rule that the
punishment fit the offense," he said.
Arab lawmaker Jamal Zahalka accused the parliament of hypocrisy,
saying stone throwing is an answer to abuses by Israeli security forces.
He said: "You are picking on the person responding to major injustices."
Under the law, stone throwers could face 10 years in prison, and up to
20 years if it is determined that they intended to seriously harm the
occupants in a vehicle.
