"And WWII warfare is exactly what the Palestinians are doing. No different than dropping a bomb in a city. We did that during WWI almost everywhere."
Actually, the U.S. tried to engage in "precision" daylight bombing of military targets like munitions factories, fuel depots, etc., while the British preferred night bombing, which required them to use "area bombing" to have any hope of hitting the target.
Making war on civilians in WW II was not inevitable, it was a conscious decision. I do not think that we should go back to doing it that way.
Even with the British approach of night area bombing, my understanding is that Dresden had no military significance, so there was no justification for going after it with either approach. I guess you think the firebombing of Dresden was OK?
"You are making my point. Don't know if you are saying anything else. My point was that this all happened because I'm anti-Sharon and I think he is a butcher fascist towards the Palestinians and he thinks the opposite."
If that is your point, then I am NOT making your point. He never said "you can't post here because you disagree with me about Sharon." He took offense at your equating people who prefer civilian targets with World War II freedom fighters, and your posting of the "Jews are running everything" conspiracy theories.
"IMO, there is not a single Palestinian that 'prefers' a civilian target."
When they send bombers into civilian areas with no military significance, their actions say otherwise.
"All Palestinians have one and only goal of freedom from occupation and the creating of their own state (with the agreement that Israel also has the right to exist)."
Some Palestinians accept the right of Israel to exist and some don't. For those who do, it is not their goal that I take issue with, it is their selection of targets.
"And that IMO makes all Palestinians freedom fighters."
I don't think the leadership of the Palestinian terrorist groups care one whit about freedom.
" Until the Palestinians get their land and state, they will always be freedom fighters and will use whatever means necessary to achieve freedom for their people and their homes from occupation and suppression."
Does "whatever means necessary" include the 9/11 attacks? If Al Qaeda had been fighting on behalf of the Palestinians, would that make the World Trade Center attacks justified?
