Flotser does have a point. Palestinian does not credit his information with sources, and should be taken with a good load of high-grade sea salt.

One should be weary to form an opinion from misinformation. Educated yourselve, don't let others do it for you - or else they'll simply tell you what to think, not how to think.

For one I highly doubt the destruction of three buildings in Gaza is an "unprecedented" action.

I think that Israel knows that the US is in way over its head everywhere in the world and is imploding socially and economically as we speak. When that becomes more apparent and the tide turns, Israel will be on it's own and extremely vulnerable. IOF and US terrorist are making a last, futile stand. I will enjoy watching the US be cut down a few notches as China becomes the world superpower in the coming years. Keep the information flowing. www.eliodiiorio.com EL

I will very much enjoy watching the US implode....altough I have decided to become more civilized here because I'm going to enjoy disputing some of the statements made by my oppenents .some of the thinking here is just out of hand.

I am thanking her for suppling news that we would otherwise not see. North Americans and Americans in particular see very little news outside the CNN-type mainstream. The US is in its own sheltered world.

When I refer to ignorant and small-minded, I am speaking specifically to those who lack the objectivity to entertain different perspectives that conflict with their own judgements and prejudices. Denial is always the most difficult reaction to overcome, and it is expressed in many ways - most commonly through dismissal of premise and/or predicate.

Although I am aware of the inherent and systemic bias in CNN/North American mainstream news, I still watch and observe objectively. I identify the flaws and I seek alternative sources to help form a more complete and comprehensive understanding.

All news is biased. In what is said and, more importantly, in what is conveniently/intentionally omitted.

With regards to the Israeli occupation, they have a highly skilled and armed military, backed and funded by the US. Palestine does not. They are not allowed to. Israel is systematically settling and occupying new territories almost daily (see settlement maps, and the construction of the electrical fence which juts deep into palestinian territory). Palestine's military consists of an occasional suicide bomber. They have no tanks or combat choppers. Once in a while, someone is pissed off enough to say "fuck it, I'm going to strap a bomb to ass and explode it inside the enemy territory".

I didn't need to read a biased source to see what is really happening, but this source is giving a clearer picture of the reality of the conflict than anything you will see on the 6:00 news.

Question everything. Look beyond what you are being fed by corporate America.

It ain't easy.
