there are a lot of folks who consider israel's borders in 1967 to be the just boundaries.

Your views about the aggressive nature of israels policies are astoundingly one sided.

Well Jorg, heres the thing. I never even gave israel a second thought until 3 years ago, when I got a job in a startup company founded by a bunch of israelis who are fairly well known in SV. So maybe these guys were unique, who knows. But I found them to be extremely racist in their views. Incredible even. Once I was in SF and there was some students protesting for palestine or something going on. This 46 yr old CEO reached into his bag of half eaten lunch and threw the sandwich and drink etc. at these students, who were just 18 yr old SFSU kids who I'm sure barely even knew what they were "protesting" for. Then he started swearing at them in hebrew, at the top of his lungs so you could hear it all across Powell street. It was disgusting, but typical. Just anything wrt arabs would set these guys off. I don't know what happened to them when they were forced to fight in the IAF when they were 18 or so but whatever it was, it damaged them for life.
