How come everyone else's feelings (other than Americans and Israelis) are understandable?
Where exactly did I state they were?
We're talking about the Pal reaction to 9/11. No one is saying it's right but if you understand what's going on over there then it's understandable.
BTW, they weren't the ones responsible for 9/11 so if we're going to hate anyone it should be the Saudis. The same Saudis our current president is in bed with financially.
Go shoot at the police building in your locality and see what sort of force they take on you without hurting a single person. Just because you thought it okay to shoot at the building doesn't mean you are not a criminal now.

I know they didn't carry out 9/11 and that all the hijackers came from friendly Arab countries.
Also, it's not just Bush who is in bed with the Saudis. Much of the money the US has borrowed has come from Saudi Arabia.
If I sent you a letter in the mail saying I wouldn't stop till you were exiled from your home. I then started shooting at your house (but I only killed 1 family member) would you feel that I just want peace and food and nothing more. Still shooting at you by the way destroying your house costing you money....but not very many deaths.
You would celebrate too if the country that gave a green light to another country occupying your land and denying your rights was attacked.
They weren't celebrating because they hate Americans. They celebrated because for the first time Americans got a taste of what they've experienced since the 1960's.
That doesn't make it right of course, but it's understandable.
Does your logic also conclude that the people who elected George W Bush deserve to be attacked by Iraqis and deserve everything they get or would that be outside your personal bias?
It looks like Israel wanted us to join them in a war against Iran.
Not to join them - to supply them with the bunker-busters.

Since 9/11 we have this strange habit of labeling anything Arab as a terrorist.
No, just those people who like to blow up train stations (spain), buses and just recently those restaurants/hotels in India. What would YOU call these people?
Several left-wing Web sites have displayed a graphic video purporting to show Palestinians killed or wounded by a recent Israeli airstrike in Gaza.
In fact, the video shows the aftermath of an accidental explosion of a truck full of rockets at a Hamas rally nearly 3.5 years ago.
One of the Web sites that posted the video on Jan. 5, The Raw Story, quoted a Palestinian source as saying the video was shot “immediately after a terrorist Israeli airstrike hit a busy market where kids with their mothers and fathers were searching for food to eat from one of the local markets early on Saturday, Jan. 3, 2009.”
The Web site Little Green Footballs confirmed that the video is “a fraud it actually shows the results of an accidental explosion of a truck full of Hamas rockets.”
But Noel Sheppard of NewsBusters observed, “I guess that’s all it takes to get anti-Israeli propaganda spread throughout the liberal blogosphere these days.”

Actually, in 2002 a squad of Palestinians in Gaza attacked and destroyed an Israeli tank unit, and that was referred to as "terrorism" by the Zionist-riddled American press.
