What form of punishment do the Palestinians engage in when they shoot rockets into Israeli cities or send suicide bombers into children's schools and pizza parlors? I think you have some type of virus in your brain that makes you see everything upside down. Or perhaps you read from and follow the Mein Kampf I mean Koran.
Roudy -
Sending suicide bomber into a school is an act of terrorism.
Bulldozing all of the fields surrounding the village the terrorist lived in is an active of collective punishment. Arresting and detaining 20 young men from the village as a warning is an act of colletive punishment.
You will never get to Square One in this debate unless you can understand why both are both morally indefensible, and why both are counter-productive.
Roudy -
As is so often the case, you are missing the point. I'll try again:
Bulldozing a terrorists house is fine with me.
Bulldozing the entire street, and the houses of 20 innocent familes, is an act of collective punishment.
Bulldozing the crops of an entire village is an act of collective punishment.
Terrorists attack civilians.
That Israeli terrorist name calling thing is just propaganda.
I don't agree with that - Hamas have attacked civilians on numerous occasions.
I certainly consider both Hamas and Hezbollah to be terrorist organisations because they both have military wings which commit acts of terror - much like the IRA with the wider Sinn Fein organisation.
Both Hamas and Hezbollah also do a lot of good work with their own people (providing relief aid, housing, healthcare), but that does not mean they do not also commit acts of terror.
It is misleading to say that Hamas attacks civilians. "Civilian" is not the definitive term in international law. The term used is protected persons. Not all civilians are protected persons. Active militants, for example, are not protected persons even though they are civilians. Only when protected persons are targeted is it terrorism.
The nationals of an occupying power (in this case Israeli citizens) are also exempt from the protected persons class.

In that case Americans are not civilians either.
It does not matter the least how you chose to call it, it still unarmed people, innocent people. That is the defenision of "civilian".

Israel is not bulldozing crops of fields or an entire street in retaliation for terrorism. Your appeasement mindset will never work with Islamists and will be interpreted as a sign of weakness which will only embolden the enemy. Not too long ago, Israel evacuated Gaza and gave the Palestinians their wish, made it Jew free. It forcibly removed it's own citizens from the land it had conquered in a defensive war. You would expect some appreciation and gratitute for this step, and some good will in return from the Palestinians. But as expected and predicted, the Palestinians proved once again, that they were and will never be interested in peace with Israel. The evacuation of Gaza also proved that it is not land alone that will appease the Palestinians. It became clear to Israel and the world, through subsequent actions of the Palestinians in Gaza (rocket shootings, terrorism, the usual savagery, etc., ALL TOTALLY UNPROVOKED) that it is the destruction of Israel and murder of Jews that will only satisfy them. And the only land that will satisfy the Palestinians will be the entire land that the state of Israel sits on.Roudy -

I don't see what the problem really is here. The Palestinian Hamas leaders keep telling the Muslim world in Arabic that they will never accept Israel's right to exist, never honor any agreement until the entire "Zionist Entity" is destoyed and instead an Islamist Kalifate of Palestine replaces it. Their charter also clearly calls for the destruction of Israel and massacre of Jews (it is important to note that Hamas wants all Jews, Israeli or not, dead). And quite clearly, they are following their charter and ideology to the T. Yet somehow, there are morons like you, that keep telling us non of this matters much, Israel is to ignore all of this and trust these animals as honorable and peaceful people, and reward the Hamas savages with even more land, that isn't there's to begin with. Only a person on drugs or totally delusional would this way. Either way, you're dreaming. With every day that passes by, there will be less land to talk about. Time is against the Palestinian side. When Iran and Syria collapse, so will the financing and sponsorship of Palestinian terror. Their hand is weakening by the minute.

Well to be fair the only reason JStone's rep is 0 now is because he is banned.

Well I do have to agree with this, Hamas wants all of Israel, not just Gaza.
Not too long ago, Israel evacuated Gaza and gave the Palestinians their wish, made it Jew free.
That didn't look like collective punishment to me. THe video is a piece of propoganda and awful journalism. It could be that the specific lot in question was occupied illegally, as in without a permit, or it could be that a court found the owner of said lot to be guilty of certain violations and or crimes. The other lots remained untouched if you noticed. You are not a very good liar.Israel is not bulldozing crops of fields or an entire street in retaliation for terrorism..
Of course it has - on literally hundreds - if not thousands - of occasions!!
Honestly - how can you not know this stuff, and still be too lazy to check?
You can find information on this in dozens of authoritive books, and on hundreds of websites. There is a very fine line between making mistakes because you have not seen the facts, and being deliberately ignorant. I did suggest a book by an Israeli author earlier which provides immense detail - presumably you chose not to read it.
Here is a piece of video - at about 1 minute in, you can see troops destroying crops by hand.

After all the overwhelming evidence of Christian Organizations reporting on how Christians being persecuted and murdered, and their ethnic cleansing by Muslims in Gaza and West Bank, you post a crap video making the Israelis look like the oppressors? Remove your biased head from your ass.Roudy -
Here is another story about Christian Nuns who are being cut off from their crops and livelihood.
Again, this is collective punishment, and is directed against innocent people.

Actually it seems you have no clue and are totally ignorant. Hamas and Hezbollah receive their funding entirely from those that are enemies of Israel. They have used the same playbook to penetrate each society and then take over. This money and arms, etc comes with STRINGS ATTACHED, the strings being no peace with Israel ever, continuous state of war and acts of terror until the entire state of Israel is destroyed, and implementation of strict barbaric Islamc laws and society. and that is exactly what Hamas and Hezbollah are. They are a bunch of Islamic mafia thugs, who's only purpose is to continue the state of war in order to continue getting more money for it. There will never be peace with Israel as long as these organizations and their funding from those that want Israel destroyed continues.But you are missing the whole point of those charity organizations that do "good" initially, deviously gaining people's trust, it is to take control of the people and their welfare, before they impose their will and ideology upon them by force.
Honestly, what utter, childish nonsense!! Why do you post guesses when you don't have a clue?
Both Hamas and Hezbollah provide services to citizens who live within their areas of operation, because both are de facto governments in those areas. They also provided services as quasi-NGOs prior to forming de facto governments.
Hezbollah have become hugely and genuinely popular in Southern Lebanon because in many villages are are the only authority which seem to make any effort to help people - why not go and see for yourself?

Poor quality cell phone videos taken by biased do-gooders are not good journalism IMO. I prefer accredited reporters who interview both sides to get a reasonable story. These bulldozer dodgers jump to conclusions without knowing the facts. Only the Jew haters take these videos as gospel.That didn't look like collective punishment to me.

Muslim animals and their supporters seem to have a problem identifying who is and isn't a civilian. Maybe the real reason is they simply don't care. They go around slaughtering hundreds of their own in open markets, mosques, movie theatres, and hospitals in Iraq, Pakistan, Indonesia, Philippines, and Afghanistan. They blow up Churches all over the Muslim world. Maybe these victims aren't really civilians too?Terrorists attack civilians.
That Israeli terrorist name calling thing is just propaganda.

That is true. Israel has bulldozed about 30% of Gaza's agricultural land.
