Israel Moves In

Hmm...interesting move Israel have made. I'm not sure if I support the whole illegal build-on-someone-else's-land deal, but then there's that issue that it IS their land. Settlement expansion is the main issue here obviously. Israel wants to build, build, build. Palestine needs a home to call their own. I surely will NOT put my opinion out because I could well be buried under a rock. Religion is touchy especially when 'The Jews were promised land by God' and the accusations that Palestinians are interested in 'peace'. Basically the whole history goes waaaaaay back and to take a side would require very in depth knowledge. I can't say I acquire that, but I can say that this will not end anytime soon.
Religion + Politics = Vicious circle.

Somebody probably got incredibly offended by what I've said.
