settle somewhere else!

I've always felt sympathetic to the struggle of the Israelis to survive in a hostile environment in the Middle East, but watching the news tonight, all of those years of sympathy fell away.

The Israeli police were forcing Palestinians out of the homes that they had grown up in, to make way for Jewish settlers to move in. And they were moving in even while the owners of the homes were being physically dragged away from them!!

What a disgrace. How can Israel ever hope to live with its Arab neighbours when it pursues such arrogant and aggressive actions against innocent people? Israel has become the bully of the Mid East, and it's going to continue to pay the price for many years to come.

Those 'settlers' need to get out... now!
