#1 Where is the Media? When Israel went into Jenin awhile back the media could not wait to show the (planted) bodies or the funreal processions (where the 'stiff' would fall off and then climb back on again). Or the 'devastation' (a few destroyed buildings shown from several different angles).

Why aren't the relatives of these people being interviewed on the 'Today' show or 'Good Morning America' or Larry King?

When Israel even talks about removing Arafat the media (and the UN) gets into a feeding frenzy but when innocent children and infants are targetted and murdered they barely mention it.

#3 In response to the above statement of having no sympathy for the Palestinians;I would interject by saying that while the terrorists should get no mercy from lawful societies,but the people who committed no crimes should both be helped and left alone.Because the Palestinians like the Iraqis live in a dictatorship thus they been denied the freedoms of relgion, free speach,thought and trade.Thus We in America should take pity on the populace of the P.A. despite their current government's evil actions.I mention pity from America because history has taught attitudes change at times in a instance or over a period of years. From America's viewpoint at the begining our country's history to now great many people supported the French Revolution,slavery,forcable removal of Native Americans,Ku Klux Klan,American Nazi Party,Communist Party of the U.S. and America First Party.So who can say what the Palestinians will believe 50 years from now

#4 Anonymous -- Fifty years ago, the Palestinians believed the same things they do now. Unless they are given a reason to change their beliefs, they will continue to believe them.

The US changed because we have positive ideals to work towards. The ideals of the Palestinians are murder, hatred, and violence -- they won't change unless the change is forced on them.

#6 Those ideals were forced on the U.S population as a whole.By means of a civil war and being attacked by outside forces like the British and Japanese which caused the majority of people to work with each other
