I don't like the dear world part. I don't hate Jewish people and neither do my friends, so I prefer not to be included in the dear world thing. Mr. Attar can speak directly to the people who have a problem with Jews, but he can't speak to the whole world as if we are all the same-thinking jew-hating creeps because he's leaving out a big constituency, people like me. I don't know what the numbers are for "nonjewish haters" or nonracists or whatever the name is, but I bet we're the majority. Hateful people speak louder than the peaceful folk, so maybe that's where Mr. Attar gets that notion the whole world hate jews (I guess being surrounded by beligerent Arab nations would help support his view. but still that's not the whole world). I can't speak for all palestinians, but I did meet one once, a doctor in fact, and he didn't want to drive Israel into the sea, he had his issues with Isreal, but he didn't strike me as a homicidal maniac. Is it naive to hope there may be a moderate faction somewhere on the palestinian side? With Arafat's security infrastructure decimated, perhaps a less fanatical or more reasonable peaceable Palestinian faction will emerge. A faction that doesn't have to fear being squashed into silence by Arafat's henchmen. Anyway, I say hurray for Israel and I hope this battle leads to peace.
