Gaza celebrations!! What Palestinians were doing in Israel..

I agree.

Nevertheless bare subsistence material security is what the USA offers.

The UK provides free health care and housing for all.

Nothing wrong with enterprising work in my mind.

I'm not a fundamentalist.

Bin Laden is. Alan Greenspan is. The USA paid them both.

Someone has to pay for that "free" healthcare and housing. NO one has the right to live of someone else's means. THAT is a crime against liberty.

Yeah you're right.

Not familiar with literary devices are you? Haven't read much have we?

Which is fine, and a completely different issue from cheering the deaths of 3000 innocent people who have nothing to do with it.

And Franco has been dead for how long?

Well, apparently you're having trouble with the concept of "metaphor"......then again, I don't think metaphors have a place in the Soviet Realism school of literary expression so that may be why you find it hard to understand.

i disagree. When you have a massive amount. When you earn say half a million in interest a year. ($50m in the bank lets say)

You can afford to give a little.

I wasn't being sarcastic you when you made the point.

Thats why i dropped the line of argument.

since before the blockade

Yes, in fact when the partition wall went up is when suicide attacks dropped off.

Anybody who says things like "Everyone knows that Israel are the ones in the wrong" are every bit as misguided as people who say "Well all the Palestinians are terrorists".

The truth is that the region has a tortuous and convoluted history. That history needs to be put firmly in the past and a new and conciliatory future embraced by both sides in producing a working peaceful solution involving two fully autonomous and internationally recognised states.

And that solution cannot be found in the battleground. It can only be found at the negotiating table.
