Re: You think because a Palestinian works for an Israeli that Arab is the victim and not the benefactor. That is a very mixed up world view. Well... I'm afraid that's also the Jews' worldview! After all, what's the whole point of Zionism and the creation of Israel other than making Jews working for other Jews first thing? If (some) Jews didn't feel victimized or degraded when working for a Gentile or an Arab or whatever non-Jewish enterprise, they'd have no need for a Jew-only country... And don't tell me that a Jewish state was mandatory because of the Holocaust for many other minorities were also persecuted during WWII: unionists, gays, anarchists, gypsies, etc. didn't ask for a state of their own! And, as a matter of fact, the Israeli state itself is no guarantee against future anti-Semitic violences... Should another anti-Semitic genocide break out, Jews in America will likely feel much more secure than their Israeli brethren. Besides, Jews are back in town all over Europe --in Paris, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milano, Moscow, Luxembourg,... and thriving. So tell me, what's been Israel's added value so far?? That is, apart from the vainglory of boasting a 100%-Jewish social fabric (and 50 years of continuous warfare)? Gus.
