It appears that this discussion has run it's course within the parameters of this BBS. There's a lot more to be said on both sides, but this is not the proper forum for that kind of interchange.
There are MANY discussion boards and forums elsewhere (about 12.6 million, in fact) where political discussions regarding this topic is not only appropriate, but encouraged. Please continue this in one of those places.
=============
7/19 - This thread is now reopened for discussion about the placemarks. The current situation in the region is off-topic, as is any other reply not directly related to this excellent collection of placemarks.
Keep it civil. In here, we are not Israeli, Palestinian, Eastern, Middle Eastern, Western, or anything other than fellow Google Earth Community citizens. Any replies added to this thread that obviously denigrate, insult or otherwise detract from the diplomatic tone set by the original poster will be removed, as per the BBS rules.
Let's play nice, and learn something in the process.
-------------------- The Schutzstaffel (German for "Protective Squadron"), abbreviated SS, grew from a small paramilitary unit to an elite force that served as the Führer's "Praetorian Guard," the Nazi Party's "Shield Squadron" and a force with as much political influence as the regular German armed forces. Built upon the Nazi racial ideology, the SS, under Heinrich Himmler's command, was primarily responsible for the crimes against humanity perpetrated by the Nazis during the Second World War.
"We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded." Barack Obama - 10/30/2008
