		<description>Unfortunately it is you who knows nothing about this conflict now, or in 1948 and 1967, as you constantly make false remarks and need to be shown the facts.       
     
Making ad hominem attacks just makes you look silly.     
     
&lt;i&gt;...Judge Goldstone and many other prominent legal experts...&lt;/i&gt;     
   
Many other?  YOU MEAN FOUR? That&#039;s right 4 -  including Professor Christine Chinkin.  lmao!   You don&#039;t know what you&#039;re talking about.   You have no idea about them being &quot;prominent&quot; or not, you just make things up as you go along.  You perceive reality as you want it to be, not how it is, and when someone brings you information contradicting your perception of reality, you call them names.  You&#039;re so laughable, but it&#039;s actually not funny because there are many others like you - ignorant people, in the dark, twisting the truth, wanting to perpetuate a conflict. 
     
&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/la-oe-sharon18-2009sep18,0,3894245.story&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Goldstone report unfair to Israel&lt;/a&gt;     
     
The Goldstone mission -- named for lead investigator Richard Goldstone -- was, from the outset, skewed against Israel. Its mandate prejudged the outcome of the &quot;fact-finding&quot; mission before any facts had been found, stating that &quot;violations of international human rights law  by the occupying power, Israel,&quot; would be looked into. Some of the four investigators were not neutral arbiters either. &lt;b&gt;Professor Christine Chinkin&lt;/b&gt; of the London School of Economics, one of the four, signed a Jan. 11 letter to the Sunday Times of London before the Israeli operation had concluded, accusing Israel of war crimes.     
     
The political bias of the mission was borne out in the report, which, despite its 575 pages, &lt;b&gt;failed to find conclusive evidence of Hamas&#039; extraordinary use of civilians and civilian infrastructure for military purposes.&lt;/b&gt;     
     
By refusing to call &lt;b&gt;Hamas&lt;/b&gt; to account for the manner in which it &lt;b&gt;deliberately endangered its own people&lt;/b&gt;, terrorist groups everywhere and their leaders can rest assured that they will not have to pay the consequences for such gross abuses of the laws of war. Instead, the Goldstone panelists decided to hamstring a democracy that had suffered more than 10,000 missile attacks on its citizens and to send the message that self-defense is not legitimate.     
     
Capitulation in the face of terror is the order of the day from the Goldstone mission. </description>

&lt;b&gt;For example, the report makes no mention of the recorded incidents of Palestinian rocket fire from school premises during the operation, despite video evidence.&lt;/b&gt; 
 
The mission also &lt;b&gt;failed to find evidence of Palestinian forces using mosques to store rockets and explosives and said so in the report&lt;/b&gt;. But the Israel Defense Forces made public many videos showing Israeli air force strikes on mosques in which huge secondary explosions can be seen following the initial attack, testifying to the presence of rocket stores in the mosques. 
 
The report also fails to mention that the &lt;b&gt;Palestinian forces recruited children to conduct combat-support operations&lt;/b&gt;. A Jan. 9 report in an Arabic-language paper in Israel included an interview with Khaled, a child from Gaza. He said: &quot;We the children ... are fulfilling missions of support for the [Hamas] resistance fighters, by transmitting messages about the movements of the enemy forces or by bringing them ammunition and food.&quot; 
 
&lt;b&gt;Gazan residents explicitly stated that Hamas fighters forcibly prevented them from leaving their houses and shot at Israeli forces from the same locations, telling them that they should be happy to die together with the &quot;holy warriors.&quot;&lt;/b&gt; </description>

		<description>People are detained without charge by the Israelis all the time. If you actually knew anything about this conflict, which you don&#039;t, you would understand that.  
 
Also, according to the United Nations under the supervision of Judge Goldstone and many other prominent legal experts, Israel has committed crimes against humanity. Boy do you have shit on your face =P </description>

		<description>Linda J -  You perceive the boycotts as a way to destroy Israel (rather than forcing them to adopt more human rights friendly tactics)?   A way to destroy Israel since all the previous attempts failed?   
   
What&#039;s that about working in architecture in Spain?  Some veiled reference to the influence of the Moors?  Did you forget about the Roman monuments preserved there, such as the aqueduct of Segovia or the the Roman Theater of M&#233;rida?  What about the Gothic styles (such as the cathedrals of Burgos, Toledo and Leon ) or the Plateresque styles (such as the University of Salamanca) or Baroque, not to mention their modernism (such as in Barcelona)?  What does that have to do with anything, anyway?   
   
And who is down on Israel&#039;s public diplomacy?  Have you ever looked at the  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.hasbara.com/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Israel Citizens Information Council&lt;/a&gt; website?  Things seem to be going better for them than for Mohammad Othman and the &quot;Stop The Wall&quot; group.   
   
Have you been drinking?  lol </description>
