Actually, I would deny very strong it is hypocritical, and I think your ability to make moral judgments is seriously screwed up if you equate Israel with the terrorists that attack it.50 years ago, 1000 years ago- irrelevant. It is done and irreversible, and most importantly, internationally legal.
The Palestinians are opprssed by the West? They are FUNDED by the west. You really should check your facts.
Evil by any sane judgment, Evil by international declaration. Simply evil. Anyone who has a problem with that, I think is a complete idiot.

"How glib. I wonder how you'd view it if Chelmsford, Essex was suddenly subverted for use by another people."
What a totally fatuous comparison. Try and find an even vaguely similar situation and it might be worth answering.
I am not saying that Terrorists are "good" (or "evil" for that matter). I am just saying that none of the sides is in any way trying to actually solve that problem. Just right now I see that the Israel Government made a step in the wrong direction. I am sure now it's teh Palasitine turn...and when this will happen I will gladly argue that they made a mistake.
It is not irreversible at all. Where did you get that idea fro?
Evil is jsut a word that is not appliable. Evil doesn't say anything but that you think they are. You have to stiop pretending that the UN is some superiopr moral institution. They are just as neutral as anyone else.
Don't see how that is a wrong coparasion in any ways, by the way.
I ean morally. They are the "evil" ones while Israel are Inoccents that try to lead a good and decent live never doing anything wrong.

That is a contemptible statement that has removed any respect I ever had for you.My word, that is an actively immoral thing to say. You are seriously equating the morals of terrorists with modern western Government? I cannot understand how anyone can be so skewed.
I am sad to have lost all your respect, but it just is the way I feel. They all have sides I agree on and sides I disagree on. they are not jut "evil" there is no such concept as "evil", anyways.

Well obviously the person that stated that is the only one to know what it meant. How the US and anyone else takes it is irrelevant.
Now, that is something I can agree. And I think we should give them a chance to show that they do.
