Quote by: Praxius In response to the orignal post #1 and topic.... Regardless if those shells that were being signed by children were ment for other civilians or for millitants, the point is, what kind of image are you trying to portray by promotting children to sign names and promote the deaths of other people?

First of all, no one has discerned the date of those pics to my satisfaction. Secondly, everyone so far assumes that they were used in warfare. They could just as easily have been used for practice rounds.

Quote by: Praxius Bringing in children to a war is sick, using them for propaganda purposes is sick, exposing them to war as being a normal and ok thing is sick.....

I agree with this philosophy. What troubles me though, is that you make no mention here of Palestine TV's Mickey Mouse. Are you familiar with that? Shall I bring you up to speed?

Quote by: Praxius When someone comes on here and speaks their mind, if something doesn't add up, I'll either ask or I'll look up myself what they are talking about.... but nobody here seems to have that same trait.... they want it all spoon fed to them....

I love dropping citations! You and I will get along just fine :)

Quote by: Praxius I also remember hearing and reading a few of those quotes myself, so they exist somewhere.... someone had to have said them, and if he's supplied dates, names and the sort, then it shouldn't be too hard to look up.

They may be legit, but look at the dates! Jeesh. Doesn't he have anything a bit more current? Take for instance a snippet from Ehud Olmert's June 6, 2007 interview with The Guardian....

"Israel is prepared to make painful concessions to pay the price for a lasting and just peace that will allow the people of the Middle East to live in dignity and security. But as strong and resourceful as Israelis are, we cannot make peace alone."

There. Now isn't that better? A whole bag of chips and more.

Quote by: Praxius Is Israel a racist country? I'd believe it.... there's been too much over the last few decades I have seen that would gear in this direction..... ask me for proof, I'll ask you to go look it up.

Like Arabs, Israelis are also Semites. Therefore, charges of racism are absurd. Racism? I've got hundreds of digital pictures of Israelis. Skin tones range from lilly white to dark mahogany. What exactly are you refering to when you say racist? It doesn't seem to be genetics.

Quote by: Praxius And if these quotes are indeed true, then it also proves they are racist..... if you got people in authority positions telling the population to do and act as the above quotes show, then that's pretty blaitently racist.

None of those quotes are from Israelis in the current government. Why do you paint all Israelis with such a broad brush? Could it be due to your own racism? Personally, I find this sort of innuendo offensive in the extremis.
