Gaza Debate Goes Virtual
Ian Lamont writes "The war of words over the conflict in Gaza has moved from the real world to the Internet. Besides a furious stream of mini-debates on Twitter between supporters of and critics of Israel's military actions, there have also been demonstrations in Second Life at an Israel-themed sim and a collection of Facebook applications, including 'QassamCount' and 'Stop Israel's war crimes in Gaza.' Another project — 'mapping the war in Gaza' — was launched by Al Jazeera and takes user-submitted reports, tweets, and Microsoft Virtual Earth to track the number of casualties and other developments."
In addition to this, the series of website defacements we discussed a few days ago has now extended to sites controlled by NATO and the US Army.
Some of the sockpuppets support the Muslim side - the ones that post comments consisting mostly of the words JEW$ and U$. The rest are pro Israel.

The US desperately needs to take go in and take out the Israeli weapons of mass destruction and illegal nuclear weapons. Take out a good portion of the military hardware the IDF terrorists use to murder civilians with.
Get the UN in there after the regime change and the leaders are put on trial for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
We could massively cut our insane defense spending if we were no longer linked to supporting Israeli Terrorism.
No YOUR side is the obvious aggressor! It said so in my Alex Jones informational video on YouTube!
Gaza hasn't been occupied by Israel since they pulled out 3 years ago.
Well actually, the latest bout of fighting was begun when the Israeli government attempted to topple the elected government of the Palestinians. The recent "first place" that you refer to was simply the end of a short, agreed ceasefire to encourage negotiation. Hamas (the elected Palestinian government), stated that they wished to continue the ceasefire but demanded that the Israelis allow food to be imported into Gaza. That was fair enough given that they had blockaded the place and the people were starving. Unfortunately, they refused and so the agreed ceasefire came to its end. When starving, violence is to be expected. And it surely was expected (and counted on) by the ruling Israeli party who have elections coming up and are capitalising on their image of being strong.
That's a little difficult seeing as they are walled in. They can protest all they like but no Israeli is going to see it.
I am a very great admirer of Ghandi and have read a large biography of his life and beliefs. I find it odd that you are so quick to condemn violence by some of the Palestinians, but not the aggression of the Israeli government. Ghandi abhored violence.

God why are you people so totally incapable of reading worth a fuck?
The first idiot AC made the claim that nonviolence doesn't work.
I gave example of why he was wrong.
Your moron ass AGREED with me, but your reading comprehension is so shitty that you didn't realize it.
No wonder you posted AC, you must know you're a fucking idiot.

You do realize that you're lying, right ? Egypt's border with Gaza is Egypt's to control.
But we wouldn't want to blame muslims for anything, right ? They're "victims".
"Victims" with guns. Smoking guns.

Generally people who side with genocidal maniaks don't get much politeness from me. Especially people who side with jew-killers. I don't feel sorry for that - at all.
Perhaps not, however they should for killing TV reporters in the area. The famous case often replayed on the TV in the UK and Israel never apologises for cases where it was pretty obvious after investigations and watching live TV footage that they had shot people for the sheer enjoyment of it. Not because they were believed to be armed as is often the excuse of the Israeli army.
Do we have to bring out links of 13 year old girls getting murdered?

Picture your 13 year old girl getting shot multiple times by some asshole. Ask yourself would you join in the fight if all your family were collateral damage, you were starving to death and basically didn't have anything left to live for?
This doesn't even need an answer, of course you would. If Israel allowed foreign aid into the area and stopped killing civilians then eventually Palestinians would stop rocket bombing Israel and then world would be a better place.
But "Palestinians" as a group didn't exist until the PLO charter was signed in 1968. And "Palestine" was the always name of an area of land, not a state.
They did not. There were actually more Arabs living in the area that was to become Israel. But then Arabs attacked Israel from the outside, and from within. Israel responded by throwing out anyone inside its borders which seemed to be stabbing them in the back.
Clever signature text goes here.
Facts:
Israel is not occupying Gaza
The terrorists in Gaza elect to wage war with Israel and then hide among their women and children like sorry, cowardly sick fucks.
They have had their chance to have peace and prosperity and they rejected it.
They have as part of their government charter the stated purpose to "destroy" Israel.
They state publicly that they want to kill Jews and even die while doing it.
The "public" elected these scumbags to power.
In WWII, the public supported the Nazi regime. They died by the hundreds of thousands for doing so as the regime they supported waged a world war.
This conflict will not end until one side utterly destroys the other.
As far as you go, I'm sure you'd like to go to Gaza and sing Cuumbaya with them but they'd probably just cut your head off.
And despite the inane analogy you make with China and the U.S., I highly doubt that the "rednecks" would attack and then go hide among their women and children, or launch rockets and mortars from atop occupied school buildings.
They do this because they know that morons like you will side with them.
Your jungle thinking comment is merely an extrapolation of the mindset that says people should not have the right to defend themseleves, but call the police. Crazy man coming at you with a knife? Run, don't fight back. Give him what he wants.
Sorry, crazy man with a knife gets put down like the animal he is. Crazy country get's put down just the same.
When Fascism comes to America, it will call itself Anti-Fascism, and tell you to give up your guns.
The history of Gaza is irrelevant. What matters now is that Israel gave up Gaza, let them elect their own government. They were actually making strides in quality of life until they elected Hamas.
But no, they can't live in peace, improve their lot, even have their own nation of they'd just quit being such fucks.
I suppose your solution is to simply dissolve Israel eh? I bet your Jew Hating ass would love that. Sorry, but the United Nations established Israel, the Arabs attacked it and got their ass handed to them on a platter. Israel has steadily been making concessions to them for decades and it matters not one shit.
All they have to do is stop shooting rockets at Israel and this would have never happened. Actions have consequences and they have been asking for this for years. Well, they got it and sick pukes like you can't stand that someone gets what's coming to them.
When Fascism comes to America, it will call itself Anti-Fascism, and tell you to give up your guns.
Do you really believe that? That's so sad.
