I think I have been pretty consistent with my views on this.
Hamas or Hezbolla in no way shape or form should exist (nor should other similar orgs). The violent influence of nations like Iran must end. The middle east must not view western Israel as a threat to their ideology or principles, the system of oppression clearly is not working for mid east nations. The children of the middle east must be educated on the principles of freedom and respect of minority rights - they have so much reeducating to do in some regions I wonder if the hate can ever go away.
I believe strongly that Israel is in the spotlight since it is a western nation and also because of the Jewish connection. If you think about it, Israel retaliates to thousands of fired rockets and people post negative things about Israel. Meanwhile in Syria 40,000 plus people have died, Syrian vs Syrian. There is enough violence in the region that usually does not involve Israel yet there is a lineup to condemn Israel. Oppression of everything is normal living standards (sexuality, women, race, religion etc) except in Israel, yet people argue that Israel should not exist, even though it is a beacon of human rights in the region.
What many don't seem to care about is that no matter how you spin the creation of Israel, they still created a nation that respects all religions and where Muslims may have a better standard of living than anywhere else in the region. What must go away is the misconception that somehow Israel systematically removed all Arabs from Israel and created a nation with their blood.
On paper building so called settlements is a bad idea, yet until Israel has a legit negotiating partner they will want to keep building to up the pressure. Either way, rockets are not the same as construction zones no matter the spin. The rockets are only firing because someone is telling their cronies to launch them, not because it is in the people's best interest.
Gaza needs an uprising, not against Israel but against those that are putting them in harms way by attacking Israel. This has happened before, but Hamas had to much power.
