Some background ...

What do Palestinian wants?
The Jews are determined that the Palestinians recognize the State of Israel as the national homeland of the Jewish People, the Palestinian Authority [PA] unfortunately rejects this demand.
The real reason for their refusal to recognize Israel as a Jewish country, however, is that the President Mahmoud Abbas, the man who claims to be the leader of the Palestinian people, has never abandoned the demand for the return of the Palestinians to "Palestine," that is, the entire State of Israel, so that it might be destroyed.

HISTORY:
[SIZE=4]The 1948 Israeli War of Independence was between the neighboring Arab countries and the newly formed state of Israel. The Arab countries did not send troops to help the people that are today known as "Palestinians" but rather they sent troops to drive the Jews into the sea. Most of the "Palestinian Arabs" fled to avoid the fighting. Remember, in 1948 they were not referred to as "Palestinians"([/SIZE]After 1948 the Palestinians started calling themselves Israelis. After 1964, the local Arabs started calling themselves Palestinians.)

The British chose to call the land they mandated Palestine, and the Arabs picked it up as their nation's supposed ancient name, though they couldn't even pronounce it correctly. Keep in mind that the Arabs control 99.9 percent of the Middle East lands. Israel represents one-tenth of one percent of the landmass. But that's too much for the Arabs. They want it all. And that is ultimately what the fighting in Israel is about today . . . No matter how many land concessions the Israelis make, it will never be enough.



NOW ABOUT THE ISRAELI ARMY: (as someone who served the US army

The US expects its allies to work together with its armed forces for joint defense and coordinated military action. Israel and the US collaborate closely on intelligence gathering. Most of this is classified, of course, but of the publicly available material.
Not to turn this into another Jew vs the world thread, but nothing you have posted makes the Israelis the good guys in the situation. In that situation, there are no good guys. And it seems every where on the internet, when someone wants to defend Israel, they always state that they served in the US armed forces every single time. As for intel, we really dont need Israel for any of it.

Black Panthers operated VERY MUCH at the community level.
The Grand Poobah's that run this country had decided the only place for a black man was in a prison or in a cemetery.

Black Panthers were primarily a political org, Shomrim are just a community patrol group similar to Guardian Angels, etc.

Good analogy especially remembering that the head of the Guardian Angels, Curtis Sliwa, ran for mayor.

If you don't need intel, please send a letter to the next incoming POTUS to remove the US listening post stationed in Israel.

Maybe we should send a letter to the incoming POTUS asking him to REMOVE Israel's listening post HERE, because they spy on us with wild abandon..between mossad and their civilian "helpers", Israel has quite a little operation going on.

Oops.

I think I got suspended from the board once for daring to criticize sensitive little Israel..here comes the banhammer..
