How many civilians died at the hand of Milosovic? Are you saying the country was better beofre the American "interfence"? That's going to be a tough sell, so don't waste your time. What are you doing in Canada? Go back, if you dare.
You very boldly state that you proved that there is indeed a Palestine state because of the UN action in 1988. Could you explain the second part of your argument. You know, the part about the illegal occupation of the Arab/Palestinian lands. The state of Israel, created in 1948 by the same UN that created the Palestinian state 40 years later. Do you choose to ignore the 1948 UN and accept the 1988 UN?
Then we come to the 1967 6 Day War. It's really not just a 6 day war when you examing it more closely. Throughout the 1960s, Eqypt was agressively attacking Israeli positions. It became more violent in 1967. Eqyptian troops gathered on the border, and then President Nasser closed the Straits of Tiran to Israeli shipping.
Here is a quote from Nasser the day after the blockade was set up: "The Jews threaten to make war. I reply: Welcome! We are ready for war."
Nasser challenged Israel to fight almost daily. "Our basic objective will be the destruction of Israel. The Arab people want to fight," he said on May 27. The following day, he added: "We will not accept any...coexistence with Israel...Today the issue is not the establishment of peace between the Arab states and Israel....The war with Israel is in effect since 1948."
Pretty bold words. Nasser pushed Israel to the edge, and in early June, Israel struck. 6 days later, Egypt, Syria, and Jordan accepted a cease fire. Israel pretty much embarassed the Arabs. And the Arabs weren't using sling-shots either. They had the latest Soviet tanks, guns, and fighters. Over 2,000 tanks, 700 planes, and 1/4 million troops were used by the Arabs, so this was no David and Goliath scenario. The Israelis didn't seem to need the "nuclear weapons" to slap the Arabs around.
You're getting in way over your head if you attempt to debate world history with me. Perhaps you would've preferred to attend the functions at the soccer stadium in Afghanistan before we were involved there. Oh, wait, they weren't using the stadiums for soccer then, were they?
Your arguments certainly aren't made any stronger by using a quote from Ramsey Clark in your signature.
"After all, we are not communists"
Christopher Moltisanti: You ever think what a coincidence it is that Lou Gehrig died of Lou Gehrig's disease?
Tony Soprano: Yeah well, when you're married, you'll understand the importance of fresh produce.
