Is there anyone on here that is for the war that Israel is fighting and against the war in Iraq?

Why?

Update:

Yes, I know that there are people against BOTH wars but that is not the question

Update 2:

Israel started the war over a few kidnapped solders. Iraq on the other had had been shooting at our planes while we were enforcing the UN mandated no fly zone.

    I have no objection to both wars. The world has changed and you gotta do what you gotta do.

  • You seemed to be confused about the actual orginis of the Israel war on the muslim extremists. This war did not just pop out of nowhere. There has been schirmishes between the Israelis and them muslims ever since Israel was brough into existence. If anything Israel has been much on the defense, instead of on the offense. People tend to foget that muslims have been suicide bombing israeli civilians for ages.

    The fact is that the war on Iraq that Bush has created is not to stop violence, infact it has started a civil war. The Iraq was an offensive and was based on false pretenses. Whereas the Israeli war was due to years of abuse from their neigboring country. Israel borders these countrys. America does not. America has no right in the middle east, unless it is supported by a world wide organization such as the UN.

    No! Some super-religious Jews think that the land is theirs. Ha! They've been kicked out everywhere because they are a bunch of self-righteous, prejudiced assholes. Treat them well and you get screwed. One on one they are nice, but in a group they're religion is just a bunch of group psychosis. They don't have any land because they don't deserve it. When you bite the hand that feeds you, that's what you deserve. If they are God's chosen, then why the holocaust (in which more people of OTHER cultures and faiths died) and hatred towards them? It sure as hell ain't jealousy. I'd hate to be Jewish (just the seriously religious ones mostly), they all look the same. How do you tell them apart?

    Yeah me. Israel is only trying to protect itself from its enemies. The Iraqi War is a waste of lives and resources for no other reason than to go chasing after Saddam Hussein. The only problem is even though he's in custody our leaders still won't bring our boys home. We had no legitimate reason to go other there because the so-called reason (weapons of mass destruction) turned out to be a lie.

    I'm against ALL war. War doesn't resolve anything. It only teaches people to be more hateful and evil. While many government leaders apparently believe you can resolve conflicts with enough guns and ammo, they're wrong. As long as our world leaders condone war to fill the coffers of the military-industrial complex no one will win, especially the human race.

    Yes.

    Israel is having missiles dropped on its cities daily,plus the suicide bombers all along.

    We had one terrorist attack on two buildings which was partially used as an excuse to invade another country to find weapons of mass destruction ANYBODY FOUND ANY YET? second any further attacks? and would there have been any?
