And the Israeli's wonder why these people shoot rockets and give their lives.

Are we getting objective news in USA--or just pretty news?]
| Neither - our "work" TV takes turns on all the major news stations and they're nothing but tabloids anymore. But is it the news that drives the public, or the public that drives the news? I see it more to the latter, but not completely absent of the former, as it is more a reflection of society, which is a sad affair to say the least in so many ways.

And the Israeli's wonder why these people shoot rockets and give their lives.  | I have to disagree, pickel... Gaza is under blockade BECAUSE people incessently shot rockets and acted as suicide bombers, and other agressions and threats against israel's existence, including the six day war. This is a determined enemy of israel and the jews, and crying foul for the agressions they started is ludicrous.

And we never ambushed the British way back when. |
