this is an appalling justification. Blame the victim, which is very common.

The reason the Middle East is so publicised is beause of oil and nothing else.
Also, here at any rate, we do get much news about eslewhere-Indonesia,
China-Tibet, Afghanistan, South America, Africa. It goes on all over and we here
about it. Like I have already said, the middle eats gets more attention because
of the oil.
It seems to me that you are loyal to your country(Iassume you live there) and
that is fine. However, trying to paint Israel as righteous and a victim of
lies and misrepresentauion etc will not work with me.
I abhor violence and mindless rigidy of thinking.
I learned a long time ago that trying to change the views of a fundametalist is
a waste of time. I use that term, p[robably wrongly, to describe those whose
views are based soley on their conviction that their own view oif things is the
only view that is right.
