ISRAEL'S SETTLEMENTS ARE ILLEGAL COLONIES
Article 49 of the fourth Geneva Convention prohibits an occupying power from transferring citizens from its own territory to the occupied territory and yet Israel has been doing just that with its illegal colonies ( called settlements ) in Palestine ~ and American taxpayers are footing much of the expense : Allen L Roland
When Barack Obama recently pledged 30 Billion dollars to Israel over the next decade ~ he did not share that Israel is currently paying its own citizens approximately $20,000 dollars each to move to these illegal colonies ( settlements ) which is in direct violation of International Law. Obviously, the United States is complicit in this illegal activity and American taxpayers are footing much of this expense.
Obama may be silent about the current Gaza assault but the rest of the world and the Middle East is far from silent.
Mosaic reports that demonstrators around the globe have been pouring into the streets expressing their outrage against Israel's indiscriminate bombardment of residential neighborhoods in the Gaza Strip. In the Arab world, demonstrators have also turned their anger towards their leaders and are demanding the expulsion of Israel's ambassadors from Egypt and Jordan and the opening of the borders between Egypt and Gaza.

Anna Baltzer, a young Jewish American, went to the West Bank to discover the realities of daily life for Palestinians under the occupation. What she found would change her outlook on the conflict forever. Here is her must see 4 Minute Video. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article21761.htm
If I were a Palestinian, as I am an American, while a foreign force was occupying my country, I would never lay down my arms ~ never, never, never ....
