Whether this was provoked or not is an open question.  Both sides
increased provocation over the years.

I know the words from arabs leaders, that the Israelis will be thrown
out into the sea as mell as massacres committed a long time ago by a
Peace Nobel Price winner.  Not to talk about very suspicious things
during the Lebanon war and later on.

Remeber the Oslo agreements and what the last governments made out of
it?  Tsss...

Say that to the Kurdish people in Turkey who over the years had to
suffer under Turkish troops, detroying thousands of their villages and
killing uncounted of them.  Any of the western countries considered to
invade Turkey for human reasons or even raised a word?

Well it is mainly GNU/Linux.

I see it on gnu-darwin.org

That is up to him.

I don't care.  The other option is to shutdown the site entirely and
have just a black page with note, when it will be up again.  Do you
prefer this?

> BUT GNUPG'S HOMEPAGE ISN'T THE PLACE FOR PERSONAL VIEWS !!!

It is not only my personal view but the one of millions and millions
of people all over the world.  It is the view of the majority of the
UN, the Pope, the Dalai Lama and whoever responsible person I can
think of.  Well, it is not the view of a stubborn club of themself
calling politicans on a crusade on their own and soldiers not
courageous enough to refuse their orders.
