(26,060 posts)15. You OBVIOUSLY have zero
idea of what I want. I've already said that infinite do-overs has worked so fucking splendidly, why would you think it should change? The Palestinians need to act like fucking adults, give up their fantasy of driving Israel into the sea, sit down and hammer out an agreement.
Your desire for a harsher occupation in gaza so hamas would be stronger tells me you have a lot to learn about being a liberal. Hamas is a terrorist group who has crushed the dreams of gaza so by STEALING all the aid meant to help and is used to kill Jews. Also hasn't allowed an election. Yeah, they're charming and SUCH a help.

I didn't lie. I don't have time to go back and check, but the implication was always there.

I realize that you think that. There have always been SOME people who have done that.
