No reason? Well I think that you are being foolish if you think that the Palestinian killed himself and others for no reason. The Palestinians have plenty of reasons to kill Israelis.

Disgust...
and the

icon, yeah very powerful coming from someone who supports a war machine which tortures children...
Try again please.

Okay, I've learned 2 things:

1) The vast majority of you are too

to pony up one way or the other. You'd rather vote "Gah" and go on griping about both sides, without doing any hard work of taking a stance.

2) Bopa has no compassion for somebody who's lost family members. He'd rather tell somebody who lost a cousin that they got what they had coming to them. Damn....

If a moderator would be so kind as to close this thread, I think I've learned everything I need to about the Backroom in general, and Bopa in particular. I knew there were hateful people hanging around, but I didn't know it got down to this level....

Yes, so much compassion for the thousands of slain Palestinian children has been show here.
I am not celebrating the death of anyone, I just thought that hooah had drawn the wrong conclusion from the experience.
I was annoyed at his disgust and

icon because of his views on the IDF which is known to have tortured children.

Now, I understand why hooah's friend and cousins were killed, but I feel that he does not and this is a big problem. He used the term Jewish and believed that the bomber had no good reason. This is a clearly dangerous mindset because it shows he has no understanding of the Palestinians. The bomber clearly had a reason and to him a good one.

Hmm, so it would seem that you either have an inherent dislike for me becasue I am pro-Palestinian or you did not read my post properly.

Also, I called him out on the icon because I felt it was a cheap shot, nowhere did I say that it was "AWSOME TEH COOLZ" that Israeli civilians were being killed.
I dislike his attempt to shame me out of the discussion, something which you have also tried to do Don

The man said he lost two friends and a cousin, and you all as much as said "GOOD!". Justify it any way you want to, claim victim status if it makes you feel better, but you gloated that somebody died. Yes, hundreds of Palestinian children died, and that's horrible. That doesn't excuse you gloating over Hooahs friends and relatives dying. At least be a man and own your words, or are you capable of that?

Hmmm, so Don where did I say "GOOD"?
Oh sorry its that you read from my post that I had almost, kinda said good but actually had not, but that doesn't matter because that is what you took from it?
Oh, ok then Don, I am very sorry for having allowed you to misread my post and get angry
