What is that old saying: “an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind”?…something like that.
Just remember, Hamas is in control as a result of a DEMOCRATIC ELECTION. Trying to force the democratic process on foreign lands does not guarantee that the U.S. will be happy with the results. How many democratically-elected South American regimes have been toppeled by the CIA because the U.S. didn’t like them?
La guerre, la guerre, c’pas une raison pour se faire mal!
(War, war, that’s no reason to get hurt)
-Line from french-canadian movie “La Guerre des Tuques” (“The Dog Who Stopped the War”). It’s one of the most memorable lines in canadian film history. It’s been reused in 2003 as a slogan against the US invasion of Iraq.

War does not prove who is right … it only determines who is left.

Even if they drag the entire world with them in their fight over a rock, live with it…

Yup, we’ve beed a$$holes with the natives but in 2008, what can we do about it? Learn from it and not let it happen again.
