The reality is that more Israelis merely want to live in peace, and not find themselves bearing the brunt of perpetual threats and attacks. Correct. Unfortunately, the zealots have control. And I personally believe that, if Israel is required to give up certain territories to create a Palestinian State, then other surrounding nations should be required to do the same, including Jordan and Egypt. If Egypt and Jordan give up some land, than Israel should give up all conquests since the UN partition in 1948 plus some of its original territory, just to be fair. Can you only imagine if the US were facing such similar threats and attacks from Mexico based upon the confiscation of huge quantities of Mexican land (Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and California)??? If Mexicans were crossing the border to commit suicide bombings, we certainly wouldn't sit on our heinies and do nothing. Are we back to the fraudulant analogy with Mexico? As I said before, it is saying, in essence, that since the U.S. treated its indigenous population poorly a long time ago, we should now support (militarily and politically) this same behavior for the rest of time. An analogy is that Germany should have supported the ethnic cleansing in Rwanda, feeding weapons and money, and blocking the world from intervention, simply because it has the legacy of the Holocaust. This is typical Zionist thinking. And, this article shreds the analogy: Message 16243266 Tom
