AddReply(161240,"Sharon\'s agenda and reply to Sean:","Phillip Slepian","Elizabeth, NJ, USA","04/27/04","First, to Sean:  The bombing of the King David Hotel (which was not taken \"down\", as it stands today) came only after Jewish fighters tried warned the inhabitants to leave the building, just as IDF forces do today when demolishing buildings used as cover by Palestinian Arab combatants.  When have Palestinian Arab terrorists warned of coming attacks so that civilians might be spared?  Also, the average law-abiding, non-combatant  Palestinian Arab has nothing to fear from Israeli military actions.  In pre-1948 Palestine, the British mandatory authorities were actively arming Arabs while confiscating arms from Jews trying to defend themselves.  The attacks on British interests were, therefore, self defence.  The same cannot be said of Arab aggression against Jews in the last 100+ years who would be free from Israeli military attacks if they would simply stop attacking Israelis.  You are the one distorting the facts to suit your own agenda, Sean.\n\nAs to Hornik\'s piece, Sharon\'s plan is obvious; clear out oppostion to the PA prior to retreating from Gaza.  In effect, Sharon is doing Arafat\'s dirtywork for him.  Arafat cannot fight Hammas without losing popular support, so it makes sence for Sharon to do it instead.  I would wager that Arafat and Sharon have agreed secretly that if Sharon decimates Hammas, allowing the PA to take over Gaza uncontested, that Arafat will limit attacks on Israelis for a brief period, at least from Gaza.  Of course, it is folly to trust Arafat at all, but I think that\'s exactly what Sharon is doing.  Like Rabin, he is relying on Israel\'s sworn enemies for protecting their intended victims. ");

AddReply(161237,"Yup. Israel, effectively, is not a sovereign state","Shmuel","NY","04/22/04","While the entire world is ruled by G-D, Israel is, from a political point of view, essentially a protectorate of the United States, and will always be forced to do the will of the anti-Jewish and anti-Israel world, simply \"cushioned\" a little  by the US. So, therefore, Ariel Sharon\'s, or any Israeli PM\'s, power is limited to something akin to governor/administrator, rather than Prime Minister or President.\nAnd, yes, that\'s why he operates the way he does - because a Jewish State of Israel - in any form - is not a guaranteed thing. Zionism, the ideology that the Jews will be liked if they have a State, has been, yet again, proven to be the failure and arrogant blatant usurpation of Jewish identity, that it is.");
