It was a rather simple recent and obvious example: <Imagine if Adolf or Yasser had got hold of Albert Einstein when he was young = no more Theory of Relativity and we'd have made little progress. >

But without Isaac Newton would there have been a Theory of Relativity? There's an obvious and simple example.

If I was Jewish, I would bet a lot that the Moslems who threaten all the things they do, would do the things they promise. I would NOT want to be under the thumb of totalitarian Islamic Jihad and the carnage they create and backward superstitious beliefs leading nowhere.

And if I could snap my fingers and make bigotry go away I'd do it.

Our discussion here was most disappointing. IMO, the worst part was that you couldn't think of a rationale to support Israel that wasn't hollow.

P.S. I suspect that if you wrote that we should support Israel because Jews like pork, Michael might be here saying "Great post."
