Why are people atound the world so hypocritical about Israel and its self defense?

It is very hard to understand.

Israel causes no harm to any other country.

Muslim terrorists attack Israel and anyone else they don't like.

But the world weeps crocodile tears over the terrorists.

The reason people are critical of Israel is because you would be talking to a civilized person/country.But you won't be if you spoke to a Palestinian. In short,you can reason with a Jew but not with a Muslim.The Israelis live in the 21st century but with all Muslims(no matter what country they reside in) it is still the 10 th century.Also,people are afraid of the Muslims whether or not they'll admit it.And they (the US,England,France,Germany ect.)feel there will be another 'uprising' if they were too critical of the 'peace-loving'

Muslims.And so whenever the Palestinians do something bad to Israel,people all over the the world say to the Israelis,"Don't react! Don't punish them!" As if Israel doesn't have a right to defend herself ! sheesh.Does this answer your question somewhat? : ) p.s.I thought the illegals already voted in the US elections.: )

I agree and disagree.

On one side, that is true. America would have dropped a Nuke on Mexico if terrorists one the election.

Although, as a Christian I think there are other ways around, but these would probably cause death to Israelies. You are always selfish and protect your country first.

I do support Israels assualt, because in the long term this will bring greater peace to the region

When the people in the former Yugoslavian republic wanted to free them self's from the Serbian leaders there was no one saying that the bosnians where terrorist or the albanians and everybody felt sorry for the poor occupied people. But when it comes to Palestine's and Jews everybody is saying Poor jews that has to live under the threat from rockets. If Usa build a wall around Mexico and allowed very little food and medicine in and only that , sure the mexicans would do what they could to hurt USA. What should the Palestinians do? Just sit quietly as the Israelis close the borders and control every move they make? Should the Palestine's say nothing and just say thank you Israel for letting some food in so we can survive? Is that a way of life? This situation is very complex and has many sides to the story and it is clear to see that it is terrible wrong.

It seems as if anti-semitism plays a large role in this. It is very difficult for some to grasp the fact that the Jewish people have learned in the Holocaust that they must use force to defend themselves.

I fill bad that people have to be doing dumb things to each other and don't use that ENERGY to build homes and child care and hospitals and schools and roads or spend time with there families ,go fishing ,hunt. to Meany things to do other than killing each other all the time.

It's somewhat fashionable to support terrorist by the American youth.

It seems like whenever Jews protect ourselves, it pisses the world off.

As Rabbi Kahane (z''l, hy''d) said, "here is one Jew in Israel who could not care less."

Antisemitism raises its ugly head again.

"How do these Jews dare to protect themselves?"

I think some people are blind to the fact that hamas are a terrorist group and that they are attackin Israel. however I don't agree with violence.
