Whilst you're all in a philosophical mood - I've just been watching the rather depressing news on the TV about Gaza.
Could someone please explain to me why the conflict is between the Israelis (as a nation) and Hammas (as a militant group).
Surely the Palestinian government should be involved somewhere?
I mean - if Dicky started launching missiles at Roger, would not the British government, and this counties police act to stop him, rather than wait until Roger and his mates retaliated by driving tanks into Southampton?
Does anyone know what the Palestinians' reponse is?
Just curious and don't know enough to take "sides".

Because in those countries there is no so called police force,they just run around streets with guns,even there governments are scared off them,
they just want to kick ++++ out of each other to see who wins.
As long as they dont send troops out at the taxpayers expense,let them blow eachother up

Sorry to dissolution you Danny. The Hampshire police are so efficient that if I was to leave a car bomb outside Rogers they would probably nick me for parking.

As an aside I wonder how long the bus would last if the sign read `probably no Allah`.

Not long me thinks.

Danny,
Hamas IS the Government, they were elected in free and democratic elections.
Rather like the State of Israel where there "Freedom Fighters" threw grenades in bars frequented by British Servicemen who were there to set up the State of Israel under severe US pressure after WW2.
Ariel Sharon was a so called "Freedom Fighter".
There is one theory that the imminent change of US President led to this action as the President Elect is not known for his Israeli Sympathies.

Might have some effect if it said "probably no 72 virgins"

Thanks Bob, makes it all a BIT clearer now
