But how does Israel defend itself?  If the Arm y is not allowed to intervene, then what do they do now.  Recruit some terrrorist to repsond in kind?

I don't think Israel should be as forceful in their response as they are, but I do think there should be a response.

Nope, I refuse to condemn the victim for killing an attacker that just wanted to mug them

But Lowing, you have to admit that the overhanded response will only make things worse.  I am not a fan of letting someone get away with something, but in the big picture, long run aspect it just doesn't make sense.  They have to find a way of isolating out the bad guys and dealing with them directly.  Try to work with the proper channels and see where it goes.  I know they have a bit in the past, but they need to keep trying, of for nothing else to build up sympathy and support from the rest of the world.

Edit:  And I never said condem them.

Nope what makes things worse is when these terrorist groups get thumped hard, all they do is come back for more. Put the blame where it goes. If Israel was left alone we all know this shit would stop. Ask Egypt or Jordan maybe. Israel was poised to kick the shit outta both of them, now there is supposed peace between them. and probably a good thing for Egypt and Jordan

Nope, it isn't Israel that has started this shit. Israel is just another excuse to hate Jews and persecute them. If it were not Israel it would be something else.

The Palestinian government will not outright say they support the attacks, but they will let them happen while showing token effort towards finding them, so it is very hard to crack down on the government.  The terrorists welcome the Israeli's attacks so they can build more support for their cause.  There is no easy way.  They have to try to do things diplomatically for bit.  They will just keep making more enemies by being so heavy handed in their responses.

I don't think an imminent threat of attack from Israel will have the same effect on Palestine as it did on Egypt or Jordan.

back up a bit, look it up. The Nazis were appeased by Europe out the ass in hopes of maintaining a peace, they appeased Germany so much that they finally lost control and Hitler took over.

So much for diplomacy

The rest of Europe "appeasing" Germany aren't to blame that Hitler came to power lowing. That's an outrageous statement.

The opposite is in fact true. Germany was stripped of so much power, militarily and economically after WWI that the resentment felt in the country led to them electing Hitler. They lost a lot of land after WWI which was handed over to the French and that caused a huge amount of animosity.

See the 14 point plan and what actually went into the Treaty of Versailles.

Didn't say appeasing was the reason Hitlaer came to power, I said Europe tried t oappease Hitler AFTER he came to power and to that "so much for diplomacy"

I am well aware of the humiliation Germany suffered with the Treaty of Versailles. Hilter ceased the opportunity and used this as a means to come to power. This has nothing to do with what I posted.

No I'm saying they disproportionately too many resolutions against them, but when they violate resolutions, they get disproportionately light (if any) consequences for violating them.

Can you think of any country with even remotely as many violated UN resolutions that has avoided any serious repercussions? Why aren't there trade sanctions against Israel?

If Israel were treated as any other country there would be far fewer resolutions against them, but the fewer resolutions against them would result in far more serious international consequences.
Israel gets violated they way they do for no other reason than because it is Israel and hated. That link shows just how biased the UN is against Israel. You expect them to play the game with a biased referee then observe nothing, other than the fact that they never win a game.
There are lots of resolutions against Israel because unlike any other country, when they violated the first few the UN just made more resolutions as opposed to actually doing something about what Israel was doing.

How many other countries can slowly annex large amounts of another country despite multiple UN resolutions against the actions and not be on the end of severe economic sanctions?

Any argument about the UN treating Israel differently cannot be done without accepting the fact that Israel is unique in BOTH the number of resolutions AND the lack of penalty for violating resolutions.

A bullshit biased resolution should not be honored by Israel. Israel is not "annexing" shit other than the areas that it is constantly being attacked from. I do not blame them. If Mexico continuously launched attacks from across the border, I am pretty sure the US would take it from them as well. Just like any other country does. Apparently it is absurd if Israel does it. Hence the bias.

If Mexico repeatedly annexed parts of the US and the international community refused to do anything about it, you'd probable respond violently.
There is no even remote relationship between the regions that Israel annex and the places that rockets are being fired from.

yeah and here is their side. the problem is this. I lend more credibility to those that do not usw women and children as shields or strap bombs to children to blow up in a crowed market. How 'bout you?

As far the mexico thing goes. IF Mexico  and the US were fighting over territory and the UN only passed resolution after resolution against the US. You would be sitting here saying how the US doesn't adhere to UN resolutions.  The fact is, those resolutions you are citing are biased and unfair against Israel. Regardless of the issue.

Israel have used women and children as human shields repeatedly.

Your claim that the resolutions are biased ans unfair is due to the number of them, but the number of them is due in part to the lack of repercussions faced when they violate them.

If Israel were not treated with a bias by the UN they would be under severe economic sanctions, if not an invasion by now.

No, I never said they were biased and unfair due to the number of them. I said they were biased and unfair period. Israel should not have to comply with resolutions that are clearly biased against them and in no way is a fair resolution of the issue at hand.
