Fragony is quite right, we should cancel our diplomatic ties with the United States.

Hmmm... What was that other country I heard that about? It can't have been the US, the beacon of light... The US would never, say, torture people or make people disappear...
Agreed. Cause it's not like Israel could do anything wrong...United Nations against Israel would be a more apropiate name.![]()
I'd rather have Europe as the sole superpower on the world than any of the others.
Just because something is the best available doesn't mean it can't be improved. I thought that was part of America and capitalism, to strive for the better at all times, even when you're on top. So stop whining and try to improve things, it's the American way.![]()

I'm not quite as keen on that.
That is precisely why I prefer America to any of the other alternatives.Just because something is the best available doesn't mean it can't be improved.

I'd rather see India as the sole superpower, but lets leave that aside for now.

I would say that to anyone. Shoot me if you want. This killing is stupid. I wish that people would grow up!
Blah blah .. I shoot you .. I am stronger than you .. balh blah blah ..
Stupid .. Idiocy ..
Just like WAR!!!
We should learn from the past and not make the same mistakes again ..
However .. Humans are stupid.. and they will never learn...
I still believe that erasing that whole region would benefit the world!

Well, you could indeed state the whole Israel - Palestine conflict is just one of a some angry kids with weaponry.

Welcome to pessimism!
Every nation has it's agenda. None are out for the good of us all. Is it better to support a nation that you believe is right, or a nation you believe is similar to yourself?

got it, apreciate his style but it's kinda onesided. Or really. So is Gorazde.
He does say at the end that he'd like to come back to Israel and do a book about the Israeli side of the conflict, as he didn't have the time or the space in his book to do so. He does get snippets of their side in though, from time to time, and besides, all you have to do is turn on CNN/NBC/FOX in order to get the Israeli side of the story.
Well, Gorazde is about the town of Gorazde, so it's going to be focused on Bosniaks/Croats. He has done a few stories on the Serbs though.Or really. So is Gorazde.
It misses out the part where there was a small loving Palestinian family living on a farm, then Israel comes along and throws them out of their house, bulldozes their house and builds their farm house on top of it while the family is sat in a cardboard box, starving, crammed together like sardines with other ones in the corner, while Israel brings all his friends along to do the same. The Palestinians fight back, bringing some friends, then Israel comes with America, slaughtering them, and with superior firepower and technology from their friends, oppresses them and how Palestinian males take up terrorism and radical measures in order to stop Israel from evicting them from their homes for their out-of-town friends.
Seriously, get a clue on what is actually going on.

How is it propaganda? You post a political cartoon which conviently misses a massive part of the whole situation. I never denied saying Palestinians took up arms and terrorism in response.
In otherwords, I took your post and added 90% of the story you missed, while it still keeps your 10%.

Well, it is officially counter-propaganda. Unfortunately, you replied before I edited it. Doh. So I am going to say I said that bit on the spur of the moment and didn't have time to change it.
However, as I posted elsewhere before, this is one of those situations where you have conflicting morales.
On one-hand, you advocate nationalism, pride in your country, etc. In many regards, you should be supporting Palestine, the nation which had another nation placed right ontop of it, then getting kicked out of their own houses and forced to flee to other countries and into refugee camps.
However, you fully support Israel, because it fits in your your belief and support of American Imperialism in the region, and because the Palestinians are arabs, even though not all of them are Muslims. (There are Jewish and Christian Palestinians too)

No, because it is still propaganda.
I disagree that it had another nation placed right on top of it (if you agree that it did, you must also agree that that nation was there first anyway), they weren't kicked out of their own homes in 1948 when Israel was formed, and they weren't forced to flee to other countries at that time either.On one-hand, you advocate nationalism, pride in your country, etc. In many regards, you should be supporting Palestine, the nation which had another nation placed right ontop of it, then getting kicked out of their own houses and forced to flee to other countries and into refugee camps.
I don't support American "imperalism", mostly because I disagree that it is truly happening at all.However, you fully support Israel, because it fits in your your belief and support of American Imperialism in the region
I couldn't care less what religion they are. In fact, I am quite concerned about the rapidly decreasing numbers of Palestinian Christians. You are actually ignoring the fact that Israel has quite a lot of Arab citizens.and because the Palestinians are arabs, even though not all of them are Muslims. (There are Jewish and Christian Palestinians too)
I believe Israel is right. However, even if I didn't, I would still support them simply because their national interests coincide with those of my country.

I thought a punch at the end was a little bit of an understatement, so I went for all out carnage, using my rubbish MS Paint skillz.
