The assumption that all foreigners are (potential) terrorists is a slap in the face of hospitality.

And it totally disregards the fact that there are quite some criminals among USA residents.

And then consider that the USA owns a prison where you can be held without any trial or human rights, and that the USA is vetoing all UN resolutions against Israel that would lead to peace in the middle east...

I said it before, americans are mostly nice people, but their government are still living in the cold war times. Luckily there are still a lot of other really nice countries that welcome my tourist euros.

Now it's time for us to step in like we did in South Africa. Boycott any product coming from Israel. And kick them out of the Eurovision song festival. It's not like Israel is part of Europe anyway. We are civilised.

My grandfather hid jews in the cellar of his Amsterdam shop in the second world war. How can people who have suffered so much turn 180 degrees and become the suppressors themselves? Put up concentration camps (Gaza) and security fences on land that does not belong to them?

The Hamas are no sweethearts, but given the circumstances, what do they have to loose? If Israel follows all UN resolutions, and the Gaza harbour and airport functions again, then the Palestinian middle and working class will kick out Hamas. Israeli hardliners love Hamas and Hamas loves them, because otherwise they would die.

Give land and work to the Palestinians, then they will become addicted to wealth like us, giving up the wish to become a martyr, because they have too much to loose.
