Hank,
With all due respect, most of us on the left are not anti-semitic. Most of
us, myself included, would defend the right of Jews to follow their own
religious beliefs just like anyone else.
Most of us, though, vehemently disagree with the State of Israels
positions against the Palestinians and other Arab neighbors.
Its not a thing against Jewish people. Its a thing against out-of-control
fascism on the part of those who run the govt of Israel. Most leftists
dont hate Americans, but we sure have bones to pick with the American
govt!
Im rather upset that, over two weeks ago, I had responded to a posting
trying to label the Green Party as anti-Semitic because of the GPs stand
on Israel. I still havent seen that post on your list.
Again, with all due respect, truth is truth. The govt of Israel has
committed grave human rights violations against non-Jews. Two wrongs do
not make a right. Its hard to say who started this mess, at least a
thousand years ago, but its up to all right thinking people to put a stop
to the strife in the middle east asap. Israel has a right to exist. So do
the Palestinian people. Theres plenty of land over there to accommodate
the Two State solution. These continued violations of everyones rights,
Jewish & Arab, is what is feeding the senseless violence in the region.
Perhaps if the Israelis pulled out of what should be Palestine, and
started to peacefully trade and coexist with the Palestinians, we might
see some great strides towards global peace and understanding.
Skywolf.
