Crazy_Ivan80, A lot of them were. They do get treated like dirt generally everywhere though. Btw the last remark doesnt really make much sense, dont really see how any arab state uses the palestinian problem as an excuse to repress their own people. Dont see them using any excuse really.
Bobbaou, the retaliatory strikes may not have been aimed at civilians, but they are taken with the knowledge that civilians will die. And seeing as all Israelis must serve in the army reserves until the age of forty, a suicide bomb on a bus or nightclub could technically be considered a military target, with the risk of collateral damage.
Styxx, whatever.
Sandwich, she talked to a lot of people over there, her time was split evenly between sightseeing in Israel proper and the West Bank. She did say she found the Israelis difficult to talk to though, distainful would be a polite way of putting it. The people she actually interviewed were mostly palestinian kids, thats what the documentary was about, haveta say listening to a ten year old kid tring to explain why he hasnt seen his cousins in three years despite the fact that the live only a couple of miles away doesnt generate a lot of sympathy in me for Israel.
As for Jenin, I've seen a good bit of it, the place looks like its made of swiss cheese. Got some photos I'll try and dig up, pity I cant get some of the footage they shot on here, actually got shot at on a rooftop there. And do you honestly think the IDF deserves kudos for not bombing a place full of women and children? Please.
Btw the guys who served in the Leb mainly talked about the IDFs treatment of the local Shia Lebanese. Dont think I need to say much on that, the fact that Hezbollah was born out of it speaks for itself. The Israelis and SLA (that right?) did shell and shoot up the lads fairly regularly, safe in the knowledge they were under orders not to return fire. Pretty cowardly if you ask me.
