The last post; I agree with you Labell may be one-sided; and from the most unlikely person. There were times it was relatively safe for westerners to visit Israel; but then again most of the Palestinians I met were Christians (not downing Muslims). I know my appearance alone would get me killed there now (the PT) I come from a family of conservative republicans. All my time in the military I hated (admittingly I was prejudice against arabs) But I interpret things much differently now. To the point I dont even speak to some of my family members.

If your referring to the one side being my lack of acknowledgement of people getting murdered in the buses. I do and have in many other threads. Its wrong and its terrible. But inthe overall scheme of things I have extreme difficulty in seeing how the sitauation is not being one-sided in the other direction.

Lets take away every element except the settlements. Sharon knows what the territories are. He knows the boundry lines as the stand; AT THE PRESENT. The fact that settlements exist with full protection makes a very specific and straightforward statement. The fact this is allowed to continue with the expectation that they should bend over; take what the inevitable is with a smiles on their faces seems one-sided to me.

I do my best to always see both side of any issue; I really do; but I have great difficulty in this area. It may be incomplete, but I've posted so many links between here and TFP 3. Ive come to the conclusion that when opinoins are voiced here they are ones that arent going to change because the info is out there and hopefully they've done some research and what they're stating is their interpretation of where the situation is.

THe above is my opinion and I hope all take it as such; oppose to me pointing and stating this is the way YOU should be seeing things. I've tried to make posts in the past that tell both sides such as the Zionist immigrants legally buying land from the arabs vs taking it; and numerous other issues; but I start tittering into an area that annoys the piss out of me when others do so in my direction when not asked:give an unwelcomed history lesson; especially when its a version that seems to come from biased sources.

I appologize if I sound one sided, also for making assumptions in reguards to other members, I get annoyed when the link of 911 is brought up and some important issues just seem to be ignored. My skills of diplomatic debate need allot of work.

By the way reference to what I saw on CNN: On its first airing the clip of the Palestinians dancing in the street-

How can there be daylight on 2 sides of the Earth at the same time.
