The perfect reason for Gah!

When a wide ranging subject offers narrow choice of an A or B answer

I support the Israelis, and I think I can win some people over.
I support the Palestinians, and I think I can win some people over.
I support the Israelis, but I doubt I'll win anyone over.
I support the Palestinians, but I doubt I'll win anyone over.
I support the Israelis. I don't care what anyone else thinks.
I support the Palestinians. I don't care what anyone else thinks.
Gah!

But the real answer is neither .

You'd rather vote "Gah" and go on griping about both sides, without doing any hard work of taking a stance.

So Don who is you favourite , Mugabe or Il-Sung ?
Take a stance , which one do you support ?

I support green gorilla's but really want to take tango-lessons :dizzy2:

Honestly I think that the poll options shows a lot of about one of the problems with the situation - the policy makers and those who would seek to change our opinion always take the option of "us or them". Things get heated and no one aims for hte optimal position - the middle ground.

Tribesman is right :shrug:

Well, I also noticed that, the choices were all inacceptable to me, I used to support Israel but after a while I realized that my reasons for that were a bit faulty/stupid and no matter what, innocent people die on both sides, so really, supporting either side just means supporting the killing of innocent people for IMO really stupid reasons. Thus I think both sides need a spanking and I put more effort into arriving at that conclusion than I ever put into forming my pro-israeli stance that I had before.

The whole "you're with us or against us"-attitude is what has kept this conflict going on for decades in the first place. :thumbsdown:

So yes, Tribesman is right, once again!

Did I miss something and are Zimbabwe and North Korea at war? There aren't any sides to pick any comparison is moot.

I can't see that this is adding anything to the already closed thread.
