Peace, Propaganda and the Promised Land: Media & the Israel-Palestine Conflict

What do you think about the topic?

I already knew that the media are pro-Israel, but I didn't knew it was this bad. :/

[edit] This is also a very good article: http://english.aljazeera.net/focus/w...531127445.html

It's horrible what's happening over there.

They are literally destroying everything. They claim that they are "only targetting hamas". That is like saying you want to nuke a school to get rid of the rats.

That both sides are wrong. Wars are fun in TV, but stupid in real life.

We know what happens next: retaliation, then counterforce, then countervalue. US arrives and destroys the remains of the cities, then they loan a big load of money to the survivors (so they can rebuild the cities) and the UN buries the bodies of the combatants. Some years later somebody bombs a store and the story goes on and on...

IMO Both side are wrongs. However Isreal to me is responsible of what happens since so many years.

c'mon, right now at this situation, Israel is worst terrorist then hamas. Terrorist of USA size if I might add.

This is probably one of the most inflammatory topics in the world today, it's not going to get solved by people posting on this game forum, but it is going to cause a lot of grief.

I'd love to have a "+5 insightful" like in Slashdot. Possibly, the best comment so far in this thread. I fully agree with you.
