The generation that believes in peace will bring peace. Tell your leaders to lay their weapons down. Control population. It is a natural impulse to reduce the number of souls competing for resources by creating theatre of war. It is solely to reduce the number of young people who are able to produce offspring. The rest is simply made up to cover up the truth. I can not believe how racist the world has become. How insensible and unobservant it really is. Stop over populating and you will stop war. Please stop blaming various governments and religions. Stop over producing now.

There will only be peace in the Middle East once the Jews give back the land they have taken away from the Palestinians and hopefully once the time comes the Palestinians will be forgiving enough to let the Jews live with them together in peace in Palestine. This is coming from an atheist.

I am deeply concerned by the human rights violations being commited by Israel against the palestinian people. It is an abortion of justice and needs to stop now.

Take the example of the demolition of the wall that divided East and West Germany. Walls divide us when we need to unite in peace. Tear down the walls that divide us. It's time the U.S. and Israel showed just a little humility AND humanity.

Hasn't the bloodshed gone on long enough. Tristan Anderson is of the jewish faith, and was merely taking part in a peaceful demonstration against further hostilities in the Gaza Region. Shame on you Israel, you who always claim that the Palestinians are the terrorists...I'm not so sure as to who is doing the terrorizing. One thing that I am 100% certain of, is that the Israeli's nearly killed this courageous young man, and the very least one could expect of a supposedly civilized nation is for them to amit their mistake and pay any and all medical fees!!

Violence of all forms against humanity must be stopped. My prayers go out for Tristan Anderson and his family and to the many others like them who have been harmed by Israel's actions.

WHY? WHY? WHY? is Israel allowed to continue its inhumane attacks on Palestine? Israel is responsible for breaking almost every cease fire agreement and will underhandedly provoke the Palestinians to strike (which is a joke in itself as their weapons are so inferior to Israel's) just to justify furthering its attacks on them. I wish more documentaries were shown to the people of the U.S. so they could understand what the true situation is there. Radio talk shows and tv will halt almost all negative remarks made by the public against the jews, yet negative dialogue relating to Muslims are given free reign. When will justice prevail?

I don't know how to judge the things between Israel and Palestine. BUT there must be a better way to target those who cause the real trouble ... rather than just bull-dozing an entire city!!!!!! I REALLY DO HOPE THAT THE ISRAELI ARMY WOULD APOLOGIZE FOR POOR TRISTAN ANDERSON'S INJURIES AND THEIR TERRIBLE TREATMENT OF THOSE WHO HAVE STOOD UP FOR HIM !!! This is not Israeli behavior ... this is VERY POOR!!!!

The treatment of the Palestinians is a total disgrace. Israel is out of control in their treatment of these people. They have shown no compassion but only demonstrated their actions are to provoke. This is morally and ethically the most corrupt behavior. No amount of advertising is going to change people's perception of their barbaric cruelty. The sentiment expressed is not anti-semitism but it is an objection of the policies of a nation. They cannot keep on justifying everything that God, the Bible and their history determines everything they do and want.

The fact that Israel is using the historic persecution of the Jews to justify their outrageous and evil attacks on Palestinian civilians is ethically and morally corrupt and will do nothing to bring about the acceptance that 'ordinary' Jews so desire. Israel is now seen by the majority of fair-minded people in the world as a corrupt state and the US as tarnished by its cowardly insistence on continuing to support Israel's policy of bullying and self-righteous justification for its OTT aggression.

The Israelis appear to have become the new "Nazis", and it might be appropriate to attach a Swastika to their flag. It is hard to understand how a nation that should know what oppression is like now to have adopted the position of oppressor. Some of the propaganda tactics now adopted through the Israeli-American axis of power, with the use of modern technology, and intricate, clever and subtle control of the media, would appear to make the previous Nazi propaganda system more at a kindergarten level, by comparison. I find Israel's treatment of the Palestinian's, their complete disregard for human rights impossible to comprehend. With their constant disregard for the rights of others, the continued denial of accountability, it is difficult to imagine how peace may be possible to achieve in the Middle East.

The state of Israel has been blatantly committing war crimes for six decades and it's militant zionists committing them for years before that. Israel will soon become a pariah state, with no hope of long term survival if its behavior doesn't drastically change.

I do not like what "the Israelis" are doing and it shocks as much as it shocks me what "the Palestinians" are doing. I wish from BOTH sides to stop firing missiles or bombs! In June I will go myself to Israel and do what I can in my little circle for peace.
