1. I like it that Noor also makes the point that there are nine

Israeli groups that themselves have called this action what it is.

We cannot blame all Israelis for the actions of their government. Many are opposed to them.

This invasion is an mitigated tragedy for all. There are no winners now and there will be none.

So long as militarism rather than meaningful negotiation is the preferred modus operandi, the tragedy will continue. Certainly Hamas does not have clean hands, but it has never been offered any meaningful opportunity to negotiate with Israel. When Kadima would have wished to negotiate, even unofficially, such action was prevented by neocon controllers and interests in the US.

2. Great that you posted this kpete, thanks.

I was in my car this morning and heard this exchange on the radio, Noor had much more to say and spoke about the lack of information that American's receive from the MSM. She was candid in her response, sighting the political power of special interest groups to curtail accurate information and that also condemn people who speak out against the Israeli government and US policy supporting Israeli actions in Gaza. This is a step in the right direction, MSNBC at least had a conversation about it.

3. I completely agree

4. I like her

It seems that the Israeli people are like americans. They don't decide what their government does and stand up when it's wrong. I have watched a few documentaries on the jewish people speaking out against the way their government treats the Palestinians. We can relate to how they feel after the Bush administration's damage to our stature in the world.
