The BBC are actively seeking a war and rubbing their hands at the prospect of it, it's getting more like The Day To Day.
"WAR!!! LIVE UPDATES!!!!"

Sky news are doing a 'boo hoo' approach towards the poor old muslims.
Subtly forgetting that the reason why the IDF are blowing the shit out of terrorist organisations is because these terrorists fired hundreds of missiles into Israel. Now those spastics in Egypt have pledged to support the terrorists.

Why does everyone think you have to have an opinion about the Israeli-Palestinian problem, that you have to take sides.
The same people hardly think twice about the rights and wrongs of Burma.

In what way are they doing a 'great job'?
Killing the guy with whom you are negotiating a lasting truce isn't that 'great'.
Unless this all some kind of marketing campaign for Black Ops 2?

It appears that the negotiations for a 'lasting truce' ended when one party decided to send hundreds of missiles into Israel.
The 'great job' refers to the destruction of terrorists, terrorist facilities and associated infrastructure. Great job IDF!

Especially when you BOTH have the same imaginary friend but you just can't agree on who wrote the best story about him/her/it.

Each side claims to have a right to the land, based on religious texts
add to that the collective guilt-tripping of the Jewish side, which gave them 'their' homeland, together with the massive financial support from the USA. Then take the Muslim/Arab side. The support from other Arab/Muslim states and the hatred of anything Jewis will perpetuate this conflict well beyond our lifetimes.
They each claim a divine right to the land.
There are no divine rights.
There are no gods.
There are only stupid, pig - headed gullible weak people that need an imaginary friend in the dark. If they only killed each other I'd be indifferent, but they don't. Their stupid spat has spilled over into my world. I really don't care who 'wins'. We ALL lose.

And they've been at each other's throats for over two hundred years, long before there even was an Israel
The Ottoman Empire couldn't deal with it, not the British; they simply hate each other in their squabble over a tract of land no larger than Wales, one side conveniently supported by some on the manor in which they broadly share a religious faith, and the other for the same hideously stupid reason.

As to the 'smug, liberal atheists' thing - I have never been called a liberal before! As an atheist I find it hard to understand religious fanaticism (or religion per se) can't see how that makes me or my views smug but there y'go.
I agree. it has been going on for ages, I agree the real reasons are lost in the tangle of religious hatred and mutual distrust but the irony is, both Judaism and Islam are both Abrahamic faiths, with the same god.

Religion isn't my enemy
The power struggles over Israel/Palestine are historically significant, when the area had what lots of people wanted, everyone wanted to control the area. Now there's nothing there worth killing for except the history.

I was trying to sound deep and thoughtful
Some fat, bald bloke said this long ago. Carl Sagan said more or less the same thing more recently in a Pale Blue Dot:
"Buddha said: "I consider the positions of kings and rulers as that of dust motes. I observe treasures of gold and gems as so many bricks and pebbles. I look upon the finest silken robes as tattered rags. I see myriad worlds of the universe as small seeds of fruit, and the greatest lake in India as a drop of oil on my foot. I perceive the teachings of the world to be the illusion of magicians. I discern the highest conception of emancipation as a golden brocade in a dream, and view the holy path of the illuminated ones as flowers appearing in one's eyes. I see meditation as a pillar of a mountain, Nirvana as a nightmare of daytime. I look upon the judgment of right and wrong as the serpentine dance of a dragon, and the rise and fall of beliefs as but traces left by the four seasons."

I've heard Israeli's call their actions "proportional"
In the last gaza war, they killed more than ten times as many Palestinian civilians as Hamas killed Israeli. Proportional ain't the right word. Before you start, I'm aware that Hamas uses its own people as meat shields. But I'm also aware that the IDF seem to have few compunctions about blowing up the meat shields. Whenever you justify massive collateral damage with "lesser of two evils" arguments, you start sounding a lot like Hamas.

They should stop telling people their shit doesn't smell.
Both sides claim the moral high ground, all the while having no qualms about killing innocent people in pursuit of their causes. Even if the IDF makes no deliberate effort to murder civilians (unlike Hamas), the notion of a few dead Arabs hasn't stopped Israeli airstrikes. Israelis take no responsibility for civilians, and blame all civilian deaths on Hamas, due to Hamas' strategy of hiding behind civilians. But you can't shift responsibility when you're the one pulling the trigger.
