> Still they are rather humane Er, what? Go and look up the history of Irgun and Lehi. Israel is just as bad as anyone else in the conflict. Back in the 30s and 40s they were blowing up buses and shooting civilians every day: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Irgun_attacks Israel and Egypt continue to blockade medicine and food into Palestine, and restrict how people can move (bear in mind that there's basically no work in Palestine). How is that not deliberately targeting civilians? http://www.ipsnews.net/2010/07/mideast-israel-chokes-gaza-de... If you want to see what a solution looks like, just look at Northern Ireland. No aid blockades there... |

What do the actions of dissidents 70 years ago have to do with classifying current Israeli government policy as rather humane?
You could spend the rest of your life investigating past wrongs on both side of this conflict, and you aren't going to get anywhere.

There is no aid blockade in Gaza either?
