    I know it's not in the US but I bet Yakutsk, Russia is pretty bug free, being the coldest city on earth and all. Plus it meets the 200,000 pop requirement.

    Why are Israelis/Jewish people standoffish?

    This is pretty much the answer.

    Israel invades Gaza

    Israel invades Gaza

    There have only been limited Israeli deaths because the Israelis are prepared and have plenty of bomb shelters. Just because some one is wearing a bullet proof vest doesn't give you the right to shoot them.

    Thats 100% not true. Just because some one will be or once was in the military does not make that person a military target. Stop making excuses.

    Israel invades Gaza

    The key word there is avoid. Nothing says there wont ever be, or shouldn't ever be collateral damage. by firing mortars or tank shells or whatever they were obviously trying to avoid civilian casualties. Where as they could have called in a bombing run.

    Israel invades Gaza

    ICBM, don't you realize its not that simple! Why would Israel stop fighting when they know that Hamas will continue to fire rockets and why would Hamas stop firing rockets when in their charter their stated goal is the destruction of Israel.
