--Anyone who supports Israel, should be called a Zionist; not necessarily does it follow that s/he is a Jew.--

bingo

in these debates it often seems anyone who questions israel is 'anti-semitic' while those on the other side - those who support israel - are called 'zionists.'

let's see... some people call anyone who disagrees with them 'jew' or 'anti-semitic' or (my favorite) 'communist' or 'fag' or whatever.

it seems to be a strong human trait that a person will come up with some kind of name for 'all of those people who are against me.'

one thing we need to have happening is the clergy of all of the major sects of the 'The Book faiths' - judaism, christianity, and islam - having a conference. somehow i think that all of the monotheists stand or fall together.

interestingly, in about 1983 i had this professor for english 102; he said then that the key to world peace would be some sort of agreement between the 3 monotheistic faiths.
