She is 100% correct.There will no peace for the rest of the world until this conflict ends.Israel is the size of N.J. and receives more money than any other country from the U.S.

Lennox, Jagger & Sayle should use their "freedom of speech and rights as individuals in a free world" to voice their objections while standing in the towns in Israel which are receiving the daily - exploding rockets which are "slaughtering and systematically murdering truly innocent victims. Then they should be afforded the right to express just how Israel should respond - if at all! Maybe they should just have turned the other cheek. And, by the way, do these 3 'enlightened' "individuals in a free world" think that by electing Hammas the Palestinians wanted peace at all, or, certainly, without killing Israelis? They were happy and celebrating only when they were the BOMBERS and Israelis were the ones dying and being maimed. They're not happy only when they become the BOMBEES! What about the wrath brought upon the Egyptians when their own Pharaoh condemned all of the first-born Israeli male children to be "slaughtered and systemically murdered? There seems to be no limit to just how stupid and cruel they can be! Hmmmm, deja vu?
When the day comes that the Arab militants start loving their own children more than they hate Israel's children, peace may have a chance!

Well many of us don't like the thought of it and I think it is great that Bianca Jagger, Annie Lenox and anyone else speaks out. I think more of us should be more brave about speaking out and maybe we all would consider peace for a change. This hits close to home for me and maybe hurts me more than others because half my immediate family is Arab.

I have seen countless children maimed and killed from this conflict....on the Gaza side, I am not on anyone's side, am on the innocent people's side, the little children, mother's, father's and their entire families are being bombarded.
It is disgusting what has been going on overthere, something has to be done. Would it have been different if it was another country bombing this little tiny place???....I think we would have been overthere bombing the @#$$% out of Israel if it were a different country......The people that live in the Gaza Strip are not responsible for this sanction against them and their children, it is a small group of people that are causing all this unneccesary assult, why not search them out since it's a tiny place and deal with them instead of devastating these already unfortunate humanbeings....and whatever Hamas is doing to harm people on the opposite side should also be stopped, not by bombs but by trying to negotiate some peaceful solutions...it's the innocent people on both sides(civilians)that are caught in the middle of this chaos everytime someone gets pissed off enough to throw a damn bomb....

Excuse me, but Israel has a right to defend itself. The people of southern Israel have been living in terror for the past several years because of Palestinian rocket attacks. Nobody speaks about their fear. Lets not forget that the Palestinians in a democratic vote brought Hamas to power. Why does Lennox not question her fellow Palestinian protestors about their support for that terrorist group. I am disgusted at this one-sided and unfair criticism of a country that is only defending itself. If Lennox and her people were being bombed you can be sure that she would demand that her country protect her. BTW, bluelagoon the whole point is that Israel is taking great pains to go after the Hamas attackers and not innocent civilians. The vast majority of fatalities are Hamas not civilians.

Oh yeah, yesterday Turkey bombed the Kurds of Iraq and innocent civilians got killed. The Turks are not so careful to avoid civilian fatalities like the Israelis. They are also Muslims. Where are the protesters about this violence? How come Lennox is not marching about this conflict? Why is the UN not complaining like they do against Israel? Why are the Turks condemning Israel when they do worse against the Kurds? Are Jews not allowed to defend themselves? Am I living in the Twilight Zone?

If Lennox wants to protest, let her protest the IRANIANS. They are the ones supplying Hamas with rockets and weapons, helping them break the truce that existed before the Iranian-made rockets started falling again. Iran is also building a nuclear weapon that it has said it would use in a genocidal attack against Israel. Lennox, Jagger et al, where are your voices against the mullahs of Iran?

Doesn't anyone realize, and I am not trying to defend war and its ugly symptoms, but didn't everyone here know what Hamas, the PLO and other Arab terrorist organizations main objective is? They all want to destroy Israel out of existence and perform a genocide on the Israeli people. This is also a war on the land in Gaza that is the size of North Philadelphia, not a very large area. Also, for every Israeli citizen, there are 963 enemy individuals in that area of the Middle East that wishes to kill that Israeli. It is sad that innocent people fall victim to war and its consequences, but when an enemy's main objective is to destroy a nation and its people out of existence, what choice does that country's leaders have?

I agree with Blue Lagoon of course no one condones terrorism but there is enough terrorism on both sides in my opinion and also in many Israeli's opinions, and they are there to witness it first hand. There are many IDF soldiers who refuse to carry out these atrocities, they are imprisoned rather than carry out these atrocities. As a matter of fact, Benjamin Netanyahu's nephew is one of them. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind!

Look at Iraq, a senseless war and the murder of so many, for what????
What is sad is not one of the two country's leader's are willing to find a compromise for a peaceful negotiation for the innocent people of both countries.
I don't know any Arabs or Jewish folks, but who cares, they are ALL human and they ALL deserve peace in their lives and safety for their children.
Whoever is responsible for this, whether it be Hamas or Israel or both, should be made to answer for their crimes, just like SOMEONE should have to answer for the war in Iraq and the millions slaughtered there......
Both people need a chance at life and a peaceful one at long last...

So why should a country like Israel not defend themselves?? Israeli's are not terrorists like you claim, it's the Hamas and the like kind of people who are the terrorists. What about the terrorists who were involved in 9/11?? There you have it, they were born and bread and trained in countries like Iraq, Afghanistan, etc.and the terrorism has spread far and wide.

But hate or tyranny against our own rulers will not improve our position, our understanding of cultural differences, our need to share scarce resources worldwide, or our intelligence as a nation.
It seems criticism may help us find common ground in beliefs & views but we must continue to seek & explain what we believe in and stand behind that.
Any position of great strength is built first on what the people believe in, rather than chastising, ridiculing or insults.

We must acknowledge our weaknesses, learn from them & move on.
Understanding helps greatly to build international peace.

God's Word says all who support his choosen people will be blessed. I belive that to be true because God's word is true, BUT our decisions and actions must measure up to God's word. Jesus told the Jews "he who is without sin let him cast the first stone" it's dificult to tell your brother you love him after you bomb him. Isn't that what God really wants us to do? Let's apply Godly solutions instead of our own puny attemps to change our neighbor. Hamus is wrong, but the death of inocent folks cannot be justifided just because they are in the way. If We must kill then accept the risk of casualties, and fight more one on one, let the inocent ones see your love for all God's people. Pray for everyone. Thanks In Jesus Name Glenn

Layla02062, I agree with your idea of U.N. sanctions, but when has the U. N. done anything that has made sense? They would sooner condemn Isreal's actions as being "thuggery," "unwarranted," and "despicable" while supporting Hamas and the PLO as "defending their sovereignty." Also, you are assuming that these sanctions on both sides will be adhered equitably with goodwill and trust. I don't think that will ever happen regarding Hamas and Al - Kaeda and the PLO. Hamas uses hospitals, mosques, kindergardens, schools and, even, private residences as a launching pad for their rockets when they bombard Israeli targets. Hamas does not play fair. How are you expected to believe they will agree to these proposals? As for technology, have you ever considered there are underground cells of Hamas and PLO sympathizers that use intricate money laundering schemes and black market transactions in order to secure the latest ordinance and the most sophisticated cache of weaponry through chicanery and illicit conduits from countries such as China, North Korea, Venezuela, Cuba, and even, from radical organizations such as Italy's Red Brigade and the IRA?

This is a HUGE issue and worthy of more than a simple comment if readers so desire. I am keeping abreast of the news reports, especially those in the New York Times and Boston Globe. I watch MSNBC. I think Israel will not be willing to quit fighting until the Arab nations admit they are a defeated people. As for the rockets Hamas is sending Israel's way, that is wrong. So I do try to see things from both sides but feel Israel is going way overbaord with its reaction. The terrible plight of the people who live in Gaza needs to be better understood.

Tris451::::you are right on the mark, Israel has gone way overboard, five hundred some killed in Palestine to a few killed in Israel, come on.
They need to talk peace Now, I feel for both people, but Israel is really getting out of hand.

a major point that seems to have been forgotten or overlooked is, that these peoples were living there well before all this was decided by the UN.
i know many of you will say they are not palistinians as a sovereign group, but just a collection of tribes who had no national flag. but whatever they were, they were there. you cant just move onto land, wave a 2000+ year old book and say "god promised us this land and even though you have been here for centuries you all have to go now"
pushing people off their land, making them refugees, forcing them to live in ghettos, treating them as second class citizens, atrocious living conditions. sound familiar ?
do unto to others as you would have done to yourself.
my mother is irish, they faught the british for centuries, do you really want that for yourselves and your childrens children ?
if you push people into a corner with no options bad things will happen.
israel has the power and upper hand in this situation, and with that, the responsibility of making sure the situation is farer for all.
imagine if it were reversed
in australia we have a short saying, its everyone deserves "a fair go" thats all the palistinians want, not the whole country just a fair go.
its up to you, justice and dignity or war
keep doing what your doing and you will end up like ireland, centuries of hate and wasted lives
mark brisbane australia
anti-semetic NO pro justice YES
here`s to a better future for all of us
peace
