It's an odd notion that HoAP's provoking an Israeli retaliation by committing acts of war (launching rockets at population centers) is defending ones country.P F Tinmore, Hollie, montelatici, et al,
There are several different factions within the Hostile Arab Palestinian (HoAP) community at any. Some are long standing and some are relatively new. Some have splintered and some have mutated into something else. One of the characteristic of Terrorist, Jihadist, Insurgents, and other hostile asymmetric warfare elements and activities is that they cannot long survive in a vacuum, divorced from local intelligence, material, and concealment support.
There is no question that the Arab Palestinians have provided all three types of support to the same HoAP groups that were involved in:
• HAMAS had fired more than 450 rockets, from Gaza, at Israel between January and mid June 2014; with a significant increase starting on 15 June 2014. Launching (according to UN data), more than 4,800 rockets and 1,700 mortars were fired from Gaza towards Israel between 8 July and 26 August 2014. Around 224 projectiles are believed to have struck Israeli residential areas.
• In the period leading up to the launch of Operation Protective Edge on 8 July 2014 in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.
Dec 24, 2013 - Salah Shukri Abu Latyef, 22, of Rahat was shot and killed by sniper fire in a shooting attack near the Israel-Gaza border fence.
Apr 14, 2014 - Chief Superintendent Baruch Mizrahi, 47, of Modi’in was killed in a terrorist shooting near the village Idhna, northeast of Hebron.
May 1, 2014 - The body of Shelly Dadon, 20, of Afula, was found near the Migdal HaEmek industrial area with multiple stab wounds.
Jun 12, 2014 - Three high school students - Eyal Yifrah, 19, of Elad; Gilad Sha'er, 16, of Talmon; and Naftali Frenkel, 16, of Nof Ayalon - were kidnapped by Hamas terrorists in the area of Gush Etzion, while trying to hitch a ride home. Their bodies were discovered after an extensive search on June 30.
Despite the demonstrated terrorist threat, the State of Israel, the HoAP and the numerous specific threats acknowledged by the HoAP (as outlined in Posting #32), they Palestinian people still believe that they should not be held accountable for the actions they take. They believe themselves above the law.
And with Israel's vast military and resources it still cannot defeat the Palestinian civilians. They are still considered an existential threat.What do you mean " defeat the Pal'istanian civilians"?
Israel is not in any war with 'Pal'istanian civilians. You seem a bit befuddled. I can understand you're going to flame some conspiracy addled response to suggest the Israelis are at war but why bother?(COMMENT)The Palestinian people has declared war on us, and we must respond with war.
Behind every terrorist stand dozens of men and women, without whom he could not engage in terrorism.
Just as there are many facets to the Arab Palestinians, so there are many different facets to the Israeli Community. The Israeli Government and the Israeli People do not think in terms of "ally 'vs' enemy" ---- "friend or foe." They think in terms of the "potential for danger;" or the "likelihood of an attack." Sometimes, this distinction is interpreted to mean the same thing.
At some point, one has to rationalize the difference between a known set of HoAP that "have pledged Jihad against Israel" --- and the "enemy."
At some point, one has to rationalize the difference between a known set of HoAP that "have fired a rocket barrage at Israel" --- and the "enemy."
At some point, one has to rationalize the difference between a known set of HoAP that "
an HoAP gunman that opened fire on the patrons of a pub on Tel Aviv's Dizengoff Street" and what it means to be the "enemy."
Most Respectfully,
“Before Israel dies, it must be humiliated and degraded.
Allah willing, before they die, they will experience humiliation and degradation every day.”

As a Palestinian today I speak of a Palestinian and Arab demand for a state on 1967 borders.
It is true that in reality there will be an entity or state called Israel on the rest of Palestinian land.
This is a reality, but I won't deal with it in terms of recognising or admitting it.

RThere are several different factions within the Hostile Arab Palestinian (HoAP) community...
Indeed, there are those defending their country. Then there are those who are...ah...er...hmmm...
Such acts are perfectly consistent with Islamic terrorists promoting the goals of the Hamas Charter.
