TYT Cenk on Israel offensive

[ShaneEnochs]

While I don't think the UN is the solution, I like that he's calling out Israel and basically saying that the US is Israel's bitch.

EDIT - sorry, I don't know how this got posted in Grassroots. Could a mod move it for me?

Right here Cenk exposes that the US government is owned by Israel

When Palestinians strike it's Terrorism, when Israel strikes, it's collateral damage... and the US says, YEA!

Want another analogy? Israel has over 5 times as many UN violations/resolutions accused on it than the entire reign of Libya's Mommar Qaddafi. When CIA-Mossad fabricated and backed NTC Terrorists attacked the Libyan government in strategic locations and Qaddafi struck back, Qaddafi was the Bad Guy. When the World's largest Concentration Camp (GAZA) is struck by Israeli Drones and War Planes, and children are killed, the Palestinians are the Bad Guys.

This is how the New World Order works.

It's my understanding that the rockets launched from Gaza aren't meant to hit specific targets; if that's the case then it is terrorism. It's also my understanding that when Israel launches a strike it is against specific targets, ie. missile warehouse, enemy combatant, rocket launch sites. Where am I wrong?

If I strap a bomb to my body and walk into a crowded mall, is that terrorism? Whether or not someone has a target doesn't have anything to do with if it is terrorism. The fact that they're not targeting the military or military facilities makes it terrorism.

So all the "terrorists" have to do is to say they are aiming for military targets and assert that they just have bad aim and then it's not terrorism?

Israel has killed 20 - 30 Palestinians per Israeli killed.
Israel has imprisoned 1000's of Palestinians per Israeli captured.
Israel has stolen land. Period. Israel refuses to stop building settlements.
Israel refuses statehood so it can continue to assassinate elected leaders on a whim.
Death to Israel.

Looking back at my post, I wasn't very clear at all. I was addressing Hollywood's point that somehow calling an act for what it is, means the US is owned by Israel. The rocket attacks are acts of terror and recognizing that their sole purpose is to create terror - not to hit a military target (I should have specified in my op) - is not some admission that the US is owned by Israel.

I know it's unpopular here, but I side with Israel in these disputes. That's Israel's land. They continually get attacked by racists. Israel isn't the instigator. If people stopped blowing themselves up and attacking Israel, there would be no retaliation. Does anyone really believe that Israel is going out of its way to take over the Middle East?

That said, I really don't want the US entangling in these conflicts.

Reflecting what most know the actions of Israel, the US has VETOED every single UN resolution against Israel no matter how heinous the crimes, the same crimes that has gotten leaders and their governments of foreign nations assassinated. The last UN resolution was to create a state of Palestine, which was voted My statement holds water of prior Israeli and US government respective actions, but the statement is to reflect Cenk's quote of

When Palestinians strike it's Terrorism, when Israel strikes, it's collateral damage... and the US says, YEA!

When the US Vetos Paletinian Statehood 14-1 and has Dennis Ross (founder of AIPAC) as the chief envoy... oh well
