EU warns Israel: Policy of demolishing Palestinian homes will harm relations

LOL

This is literally not true. You did excuse terrorism, by portraying terrorist as victims, and Israel has not engaged in the same thing, at all. The Zionist leadership at the time did condemn the Irgun and other groups, and they were not paid by the state for attacking civilians.

You mean the guys that did stuff like this?

"The revised book is a double-edged sword. It is based on many documents that were not available to me when I wrote the original book, most of them from the Israel Defense Forces Archives. What the new material shows is that there were far more Israeli acts of massacre than I had previously thought. To my surprise, there were also many cases of rape. In the months of April-May 1948, units of the Haganah [the pre-state defense force that was the precursor of the IDF] were given operational orders that stated explicitly that they were to uproot the villagers, expel them and destroy the villages themselves.

Guys it's okay!! The Zionists weren't terrorists! They just went around mass raping and mass murdering people as they evicted them from their homes and then stole the homes.

Not terrorism! Right?!

And we all know that just because Israel decided to take a bunch of guys - who were going around and raping and murdering innocent people then throwing them out of their homes and stealing their homes - and make those same rapists and murderers their official military it doesn't mean that Israel actually supported them.

Duuhhhhh!!

I said no such thing, but nice try again. I said it was different than attacks that target civilians, especially women and children, that it was different because it was a valid military target, that it was different because they called in warnings, that it was different because it was condemned by the Jewish Agency and other Zionist leaders (Ben Gurion said it made the Irgun "the enemy of the Jewish People").

Love this, really LOVE it. Why? Because of all the warnings the Palestinians have given throughout the years. Obviously you don't consider any attacks from Palestinians to be a bad thing - after all they've given warnings. Right?

I said these things make it less egregious than a thousand examples of Palestinian terrorism, but I do not excuse it. I'll thank you to not to put words in my mouth.

Oh yes, Palestinian 'terrorism' when a Palestinian decides they've had enough of the terrorist Israelis walking around with their weaponry clearly visible. Why shouldn't they treat that Israeli terrorist the same way Israel would treat someone from Hamas walking around in Tel Aviv? They shouldn't.

But hey I understand - people who support Israel think it is fully legit to rape someone, steal their home, and then keep that home as yours. Right? Or can you let me know when the Israeli government decided to return the land and homes that were taken through rape and murder?

Keep on fighting the good fight, buddy!!
