Wow, please stfu. You obviously have no idea what you are talking, and if you are jewish then please this is disgraceful, giving us a bad name. Any real person will acknowledge that Israel is being backed by the United States. Israel would be nothing without the U.S. Now, who can help the palestinians? no one. So please, don't consider yourself at all knowledgeable about foreign affairs. While the Israelis run over the west bank with tanks, the palestinians throw rocks..
And the Palestinians respond the only way they know how..with suicide bombers in small Israeli markets.
In Summation: Don't talk about foreign affairs in general. From what i've seen, you know about as much as a burnout from houston.
i got bored so i looked up some statistics on terrorist bombings (ok i looked at the wikipedia page and copied it)
Since the begging of the year, there have been 91 terrorist attacks reported worldwide. That's roughly 1 attack every 55 hrs.
1298 people have been killed do to terrorist attacks. That's roughly 6 people a day.
I didn't even bother to count the injuries, i didn't have that much time.
16 of the attacks (18%) were in Iraq.
13 of the attacks (14%) were in Sri Lanka <----- I had no idea they had it so bad
10 attacks in pakistan
8 attacks in afganistan
8 attacks in Israel/palestine
6 attacks in India

1 attack in USA (2 days ago - shooting spree)
1 attack in UK (no deaths i believe)
A vast majority of attacks were improvised explosives.
A suprising amount of the attacks were carried out by female suicide bombers.

Before Iraq it had the highest number of suicide bombings of any part of the world. One organization was recently banned here for helping support the Tamil Tigers, acting as a front charity that preyed on the Tamil community for support. The Sinhalese and Tamils have been trying to eradicate each other with little success, neither has the military power to crush the other.

yeah if you want to check out an epic post battle, just look at the wiki articles on the LTTE (Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam). There's a lot of conspiracy/controversy on the article because of Pro-LTTE editors in Sri Lanka trying to make them not look like terrorists. Yeah they do a lot of good for some ppl in SL, but they also bomb buses and use suicide bombers as a main way of assassination. Hell, they're the first terrorist organization to have an airforce. A lot of talk about Norway's support for the LTTE too, when 30+ countries call it a "terrorist" organization, including the EU.
i find it amusing that anyone here is arrogant enough to presume they know whats going on in the middle east, in all of our respective governments, and what the motives are behind everything.
