ahh, another person's country. so is that all of israel, or just the occupied territories? for that matter, what is the occupied territories, cos i've always understood it as being wherever jews are. people blowing themselves up on busses is pretty much the definition of imminent threat hotshot.
btw, "Even David Ben-Gurion, who was then in Paris, joined the chorus of condemnation, and in an interview to the French newspaper 'France Soir', declared that the Irgun was "the enemy of the Jewish people". " wow, with support like that, who needs condemnation. and he called begin a nazi a few times too, does that make them lovers or something?
"palestinian leaders dont warrant the israeli tanks that roll on the streets for weeks and often months on end, holding palestinians captive in their own homes." no you're right of course, we should let them live their lives because they choose to vote for terrorists. i mean, its not like they support them, right? blood of innocents is on all of the HAMAS voters hands.
pure arrogance is thinking that one set of rules applies to the jews, and another to the islamists. the idf try and minimize damage and death, the palestinians try and propogate it.
