How Anti-Semitism Helped Create Israel

History is complex, unlike your brain apparently.

Liberal tears triggered by Israel because they hate everything that reminds them of any foundation of religion! Even though you may not realize Israel is a secular state with fairly low levels of religious participation.

No tears here.  Just pity for you.  You're embarrassing yourself at this point.

You are a disgrace. Excusing terroristic violence because you are so blinded by hate towards a Jewish State. I want to vomit.

Let's cool it on this topic. No more "the left hates Jews" or "you're stupid for not knowing Israel's true nature" comments. It can turn into some dangerously ignorant discussion very quickly.

This is the 'Polite Politics' thread, not the 'Pretend We're Middle East Experts Now' thread. Let's keep it that way.

Though I agree with your sentiment, let's not lump SilverFallsAndrew and myself into the same boat.  I am open to learning and reading background context.  Him?  Not so much.

I’ve watched this conflict all my life.  
It goes back and forth and has for over 2000 yrs. Tribal conflict in ancient times has changed little and an eye for an eye leads to a nation of the blind.  
It won’t stop till they’re all dead. Then perhaps there will be a peace of the grave.  Clearly they can’t live together.

Looks like it's time for Palestinians to pay for their SINS!

[Reg]

Outright genocidal rhetoric from not only the Israelis but also their American enablers in recent days. Decades of insanely pro-Zionist media dehumanization of Palestinians has convinced millions of Americans that Palestinians are not humans and deserve what they get. Notice the complete silence on the total blockade on Gaza that Israel just announced - intentionally starving millions of Palestinians trapped there of food, water, and medical aid. This view is also reflected in the posts of some users here in this forum. Nothing but silence.

Never forget these people.

[Andie]

Apparently, there is chatter in the diplomatic offices that cities in the US are on a list to suffer from some kind of big violence.  I hope this is just chatter.

Yup.  Seems some "peaceful Christians" on here are conflating what Hamas did and the general population of Palestine.

No surprise given what happened to muslims in this country after 9/11.

We Must Not Forget the Suffering of the Palestinian People, Especially in Gaza

It is true that what Hamas has done is monstrous, parading bodies of murdered Israeli women — stripped naked — before cheering, jeering crowds, among other atrocities. But let us remember that the average citizen of Gaza is also a victim of sorts.

Not only is the Gaza Strip one of the most densely populated regions in the world with much poverty, but with the people electing Hamas in their one and only election (in 2006) — as opposed to having the option of a peace-loving leadership that recognized the Jewish state — Gaza has been isolated by Israel. And when you realize that the median age of Gazan Palestinians is 18 (10 years younger than the worldwide average), you understand that a large percentage of the populace has grown up blaming Israel for all its problems.

State TV brainwashes them, as do their school systems. The people do not realize that hundreds of millions of dollars of support is used for weaponry and tunnels rather than helping fight poverty. (Or, if they understand this, they think it’s justified.) And when Israel launches a counterstrike on Gaza, amounting to more Palestinian suffering, then Israel is viewed as all the more evil.

As Joel Rosenberg wrote in response to calling for the evacuation of women, children, and the elderly from Gaza, after which Israel would totally destroy it, “Are you crazy? I’m an Israeli. I want my country to defeat Hamas, reestablish security and liberate our hostages. But genocide is not the answer . . . 2 million Palestinians live in the Gaza Strip. They are also suffering under Hamas’ reign of terror.”

We must pray for God’s mercy for the Palestinians as well.

You mean pretty much nothing… Bush even let Bin Laden s family get out of the country before they could face any blowback.

Some wild stuff from Reg. Take that stuff to Gaza bro. You and a few of the usual suspects are dancing on a lot of graves right now.
