Suspected suicide bombing blows up bus in Tel Aviv - BizPac Review

At least 17 people were injured in today's bombing of a bus in Tel Aviv (of them 3 seriously). In Gaza the Palestinians were seen dancing with joy upon hearing about this news. So would you dance with joy on hearing about the killing on innocent civilians in another country like this when this is clearly a terrorist attack?

Looks like Israel needs to step up the assaults.

I'd like someone to explain to me, in light of this, how Hamas is NOT a terrorist organization.

Looks like the assaults shouldn't have started to begin with. What happened the last time they had a conflict a few years ago? Absolutely nothing. Just more deaths and more destruction and more bitterness.

There are no "good guys" and "bad guys." Both sides of this conflict have elements that use violence.

They say that Israel has a right to defend itself.

The same is then true for the Palestinians.

Violence is violence, no matter who uses it.

So until people start working for peace (both Palestinians and Israelis) there will be more violence. Tit-for-tat.

A Palestinian who kills a Jew has committed the same atrocity as a Jew who kills a Palestinian.

Same crime. Neither side is justified.


Now, if all you can do is promote ONE side of the conflict, then you are a hypocrite, because both sides are doing the same thing, and you condemn the one but justify the other.

So we all need to learn to use Peace as our Guiding Light, if you want to be able to see through the darkness.


Peace.

Sure Hamas should never have started raining rockets on Southern Israel.

We'll have to wait for MSNBC to say that this was only a minor incident, there weren't enough people killed.....

Palestinians are celebrating the killings of their fellow countrymen -- by a terrorist group -- and are obviously helping the enemy -- they should be marched right out of Israel.

It's time for the Israelis to bomb Mecca -- I think everyone would agree that's better than killing any people. Just get rid of the source of the evil.

The Palestinian people have been constantly harass bullied and oppressed by the Israeli people for the past 64 years.

If somebody came to your country, threw you out of your home that your family lived in for generations with no compensation or redress and then treated like dirt and don't even have the decency to respect your right to live as a free and independent people you'd be pretty pissed off too.

The Israelis have brought all this upon themselves when they choose to form a nation by taking it from the Palestinian people by force and the continued bullying, oppression and subjugation of these people.
