I find that it is often those with the most to gain from inflicting suffering that cling hardest to the cover of a religion or politics.
Nice video of the assault, two groups throwing rocks at each other. If you consider throwing rocks an assault then there's a lot of Palestinian kids assaulting the IDF everytime they come around. Look carefully at .30 and .49. See the rocks bouncing toward the Israelis? It shows the Palestinians were throwing stones too. Also it doesn't look like it's at night like your source claims. It's broad daylight. How did they get that wrong?
You seem to be missing the point of the whole article Ed. The Israeli military facilitate and enable these lunatics. The settlers are the biggest barrier to peace. What are they doing settling on land that is not theirs. These are Americans, Brits and various other nationalities who because of their mad beliefs are occupying Palestinian lands ? If a gang of religious fanatics tried to take over land your family had lived on for generations what would you do ? These chaps are every bit extreme and loo la as ISIS. Sent from the back of a jihadist donkey...
Missing points is my specialty. The wife thinks it's on purpose while really I have blind spots. It was a fucking rock fight and it looked like the soldiers were there to keep things from escalating. You fell for it because of the way you think. I fall for stuff for the same reason so I can't fault you on it. Or maybe your point was killing those 5 at worship is justified because they weren't born in Israel? Anyway we're just going around in circles and I know how arguing with you turns out. Plus I answered your question "what would you do?" several months ago so I know we've been here. It's funny how differently people think, like different species almost.

Israel has reacted angrily to the decision by the International Criminal Court (ICC) to open an inquiry into possible war crimes in the Palestinian territories and is urging member states of the court to respond by cutting funds.After emergency consultations involving senior officials, Israel decided to launch an international campaign against the ICC, saying it would do everything possible to undermine the inquiry. Foreign minister Avigdor Lieberman described the court as an anti-Israel institution that embodies hypocrisy and grants a tailwind to terrorism. http://www.irishtimes.com/news/world/middle-east/israel-seeks-to-block-gaza-war-crimes-investigation-1.2070389 The Israelis really have some neck
Isreal is like the little shit on the playground that bullies the weak kid and then runs off to big brother (US government) when a few other kids have enough and stand up to his shit. They need a good spanking.
you may be a shill but I know you are not that dense. Everything the IDF has it owes to the US and you know it. Isreal would be pathetic at best without sucking off the American tax slaves tit.
When has the US Army intervened in a conflict involving Israel? I think the fact that Israel survived and won multiple wars by simultaneous Arab countries is proof you are wrong.
no, of course the American military did not intervene everyone knows that. But everyone also knows that Israel's military would be worth shit if it were not for the United States government giving them welfare. They would have had their asses handed to them if it were not for the United States government.
Israel economy surges 7.2 percent in fourth-quarter, fastest pace since 2007 http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/02/16/us-israel-gdp-idUSKBN0LK11Z20150216
US military cooperation with Israel began in 1973, long after the 1948 War of Independence, Six Day War.....Even then, the IDF managed to repel multiple Arab states at the same time without any US equipment as you claim.
*Source: The Congressional Research Service's report “U.S. Foreign Aid to Israel,†written by Jeremy M. Sharp, Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs, dated April 11, 2014. According to this report, the Obama Administration gave $3.1 billion in Foreign Military Financing (FMF) for Israel for the Fiscal Year 2014. In addition, the US contributed $504 million to the joint U.S.-Israel Missile Defense Program during FY 2014. If we include that number, American taxpayers give Israel $9.9 million per day. Over the last 20 years, the U.S. has been slowly phasing out economic aid to Israel and gradually replacing it with increased military aid. In 2007, the Bush Administration and the Israeli government agreed to a 10-year, $30 billion military aid package FY 2009 to FY 2018. In 2012, the U.S. began giving Israel $3.1 billion a year (or an average of $8.5 million a day) and promised to provide that amount every year through FY 2018. And yet there are American Vets homeless tonight... Disgusting...
