AddReply(173888,"Moral Dilemma?","Volvi","Melbourne/Jerusalem","10/19/03","I have no moral dilemma concerning these prisoner exchanges. To me its all as clear as a blue sky. These exchanges must STOP, in this manner. As long as we \'exchange\' the enemy will continue with kidnappings, because it PAYS. When you stop paying so does these kidnappings. Rule 1, whenever some are kidnapped for PAYDAY, Israel sends out a special team and kidnaps high profiles for the sole purpose of \'exchange\', no more no less. When there is no PAYDAY and Israel only willing to release those kidnapped for that particular purpose, kidnappings will cease for theres no value to the enemy. To release potential murderers is irresponsible to the lives they have \'not yet\' taken. Once such release happens you the releaser are now responsible for ALL DEATHS that they may carry out. Same as current Government is responsible for the deaths incurred by those just recently released. You cant afford the micro view of suffering by individuals, you have to take the macro view in safeguarding all other potential victims from suffering. Equally for Israeli corpses, only equally high profile corpses to be yielded in exchange. For Tenenbaum for example, Israel should have brought Nassralah in or another high profile for exchange, if its a corpse being offered, then nassralahs corpse be offered. Its simple provided you abide by your principals. Kidnappings will cease for there will be no value to the enemy just bringing upon them an equal price. But when you have weak governments and leaders this will always continue and they bare the responsibility. Dirani and others held for Arad must not be released, only for Arad. I have no moral dilemma, whys that?");

In this piece he provides information on the situation of the prisoners which I did not know. And he also shows a moral judgment, aware of the complexities of reality that many people who support positions, similar to my own, do not.");
AddReply(173886,"Israel a Light unto India?","IamJoseph","Australia","10/19/03","India\'s \'ISRAEL EXPERIENCE\'.\n\nThere is a great battle looming in India, and no - this does not relate to the Kashmir dispute -  but one which screams its analogy with the Al Uqsa in Jerusalem. It is an analogy which will not and cannot be hidden or quietened. \n\nThe ancient Indian Ram temple in Ayodhya, it is alleged and does not appear to be denied by Muslims, was destroyed when the Islamist Moguls invaded India some 500 years ago. A huge mosque was erected in the same place. To make the situation more precarious for Muslims - there is no avocations in the Quran about its Prophet allegedly ascending from or visiting this site, yet it did not stop the Temple\'s destruction or the rectification of this sad episode for 500 years, even when a new Islamic state was carved out of a third of the Indian sub-continent. Worse, it did not result in any forbearance by the Muslims to grant some discussion of removing the Mosque to another location to appease the country\'s native inhabitants. \n\nIt appears the Commandment to \'RESPECT THE LAWS OF THE COUNTRY WHICH HOUSES YOU\' (Torah), does not exist with Muslims - although this law is adhered to by all civilized nations, courts and institutions. No doubt that Islam has instead a law that says any place controlled/inhabited/invaded by Muslims becomes sacred Islamic soil and cannot be returned to the infidels - as with the Jews in Palestine, or trampled upon by the infidels - as with the US and its 70 year trade relations with Saudi Arabia - regardless that the alleged infidels were the original owners and have shown great, unreciprocated hospitality to the invaders - as with India and the Muslims. Today\'s war on terror is a direct reflection of such Islamist arrogance, where tapes of neo-Prophet Osama clearly advocates murder of infidels who desecrate islamist soil in Saudi Arabia - notwithstanding that the Saudi Government has conducted commerce and relations with the US for over three decades, nor that the Indian lands do not come under such a category of Islamic, but Indian, sacred soil. \n\nWhat is the screaming analogy here v/v the Temple Mount in Jerusalem? Without lessening the right of Indians to claim forbearance from Muslims, the situation concerning the Jewish sacred site is - at least according to documented evidence and period of time - far more severe than that of India. Subsequently it can be stated, there should be greater forbearance for the Jewish problem which mirrors this crises faced by India. Infact one can well say that here India is facing THE ISRAEL EXPERIENCE. From this perspective, ISRAEL IS A LIGHT UNTO THE NATIONS. Again. \n\nThe situation can easily be resolved. Muslims can elevate their sacred mosques by removing them to more sacred plates in true Islamic lands, which are not desecrated by infidels. This is technologically a simple procedure. Infact, even the land and environments can be removed and relocated - including the air and atmosphere of that place with Israeli high-tech \"Atmosphere Absorption\" Smart gadgetry. But alas Muslims are today again obsessed with Israeli Product Boycotts - even with the risk this further desecrates their most sacred sites by Jews and Hindus: Is it payback time for Mosques erected on other people\'s sacred?\n\n?THOSE WHO BLESS I SHALL BLESS ? AND THOSE WHO CURSE I SHALL CURSE?.\n");
