You are so very right.
Lets take the house you own and live in and give it to your neighbors. You are hereby allowed to live in the garage. Accept it and you will still have a home or keep fighting and you will have none.
I am simply amazed at your intelligence

Antiwar blogs are just that, don’t expect people not to look back in hindsight and see the injustice. Politcs and wars are about long standing disputes, polarized ideals and mans need to control his patch.
5 century bc Greeks never trusted sophistry and I don’t think anything as changed

The UK, who were the occupiers prior to the declaration of a Jewish Israeli state were against the 2-state partition in the UN. So were all the surrounding arab states.

The Palestinian arabs wanted a single federal state where both Jews and Arabs would be represented.

The 2 state solution split up the land and made people move out of areas they had been living in for generations.

It was the 2 state solution that was less reasonable than the single state solution.

The arabs were willing to live along side the Jews. The Jews wanted a Jewish state.

Richard Vajs,

You are not correct. Judaism does not encourage conversion. That is true. In fact, Judaism is unique in the sense that it is one of the only religions that does not declare that you need to become Jewish in order to “go to heaven” or “be saved” or what not. So conversion is not encouraged, however, it is certainly allowed. There are black Jews, Asian Jews, Hispanic Jews, etc. And once you convert you are considered 100% Jewish and just as jewish as someone who was born into it.

The reason that so many people here come down on Israel here is that there is almost nowhere else that you can hear any criticism of their conduct. The message from congress may just as well have been a recording. “Israel is our ally. They have a right to self-defense… unchecked aggression… blah.blah.blah.” Many of the antiwar readers, myself included, are tired of the same canned response. That and we are tired of so much trouble tied to the nation of Israel. As Americans why should be support Israel lock stock and barrel? How does it become a ‘moral obligation’ to blindly endorse the activities of a foreign government? To be honest, how the modern state of Israel came into being is very messed up. Modern zionism is a European phenomenon. It is a result of anti-semitism there. Jews living in the Middle East since the Roman-caused diaspora have lived in relative peace and security with their non-jewish neighbors. The peace was broken by immigration of zionist jews to palestine and their subsequent refusal to identify the indigenous people as having any rights. It could have been done better, but it wasn’t. So, to sum up, why is it MY responsibility as an American to clean up a mess that has really nothing to do with American interests or actions? I think that if Israel ceased receiving support from us that they would have no choice but to be less belligerent with their neighbors if they wanted to survive. Just like all the other little countries of the world do.

You don’t know what your talking about, Swan. In the first place, the Sephardim of Israel are mostly on the right wing, because of the way the Arab Muslims in their countries of origin treated them. In the second place, the Ashkenazi’s are not “Khazarim,” except for one idiosyncratic theory that makes no historical sense, given that their were Jews throughout Europe long before the fall of the Khazar empire.

Jane, your as ignorant as Swan. The Sephardim (Spanish and Arab Jews) are no more and no less descendants of “Israel’s tribe” than the Ashkenazim or Felashim (ever heard of them). There is no such thing as a “racial” Jew, so ALL Jews are “Jewish by religion only,” just as all Catholics are Catholic “by religion only,” and all Muslims, Buddhists, etc. are what they are “by religion only.” So what meaning does your statement even have? It is gibberish.

None of this says anything one way or the other about what is happening in Gaza — I just don’t want to let your rather ignorant, prejudiced rantings interfere with the discussion.

Will,

You seem like a very thoughtful person and I am sorry that your father was mistreated. Perhaps we can continue this discussion privatly?
