Reader comment on article: Is The Media Fair In Its Portrayal Of The Israeli-Hamas Conflict?

Jun 22, 2009 00:03

The way we view this shouldn't be "If terrorists from canada were launching rocekts into the US"

The reality would be: If mexicans invaded the southern United States, including parts of texas and califronia, under claims that they have the right to that land as their ancestors lived there, the US would undoubtedly resist with an infinitely greater military response than what hamas has been doing in Israel.

Before Israel, there were people, BOTH Jewish and Muslim, all living together. The problems (in our modern times) did not start until the establishment of the Israeli state in 1948.
