Know what would make this cartoon more credible? (‘cos Ahmadinejad is just a figurehead, not a warhead)If PW Botha was peeking out the top of a Jericho I missile and that was Shimon Peres & Gerald Ford running around.[hmm, Gerald Ford. Wasn’t he in Indonesia just before it invaded East Timor? Why, some things never change]
The Israeli government is no more innocent than the Palestinian extremists. We need to stand up to Israel and tell them to cut the BS do their part to make lasting peace or we cut their funding. We also need to stop selling them the weapons they use against innocent civilians.
Does Israel say that Iran is a cancer and must be removed? Israel would never say that, or act to try and make it happen. Iran constantly says these things. You don’t know that they are not building a nuke, just like I don’t know they are. Facts are simple, they are enriching uranium and call for the destruction of another nation. How long do we wait?
Also “Palestine” was not a country before the split was proposed. The land that Israel was given was technically British controlled. Also the land that Israel annexed (after a war, which was common practice at the time) was from Jordan, Egypt and Syria. NONE of it from a place called “Palestine”. Most of Gaza and the West Bank were Judea and Samaria, and was not intended by the league of nations or the UN to be part of the Palestine that was too be created..
Israel is working towards a two state solution, unlike say Hamas who wants to be “From the river to the sea”.
@Jase99 Israel sends out letters, makes phone calls and warns people that they are in areas that will be bombed before bombing. Colonel Kemp (former Commander of British Forces in Afghanistan) even went as far as to write a whole document (Hamas, the Gaza War and Accountability under International Law) to explain how humane the IAF actually is.
I’m not trying to say that Israel is perfect, no country is. Just pointing out some things I think need to be taken into account\

Those two can’t figure out where the threat is? Typical, they don’t even know who their allies are.
