re: because it looks like Bush [the US] can't control Sharon [Israel] at all
do you realize what you are saying?

Israel is an independent democratic country.
re: We are now in the same position as Arafat is with the Hamas.


By my estimation, both Sharon and Arafat are out of control. Both have asked the US to participate and take an active role in the peace making process. If the US believes that it is in the best interest of peace for Sharon to pull back, then it has every right to make that demand.

And I realize very much what I am saying.

you stretch your analogies to a degree that is borderline with pure hatred of Israel. Are you sure have friends in Israel?

Not for one moment do I forget about my friends in Israel. The kibbutz of one of them is very close to the Golan Hts. I want very much for them to have peace. It may be the only chance they have to live a long life.

Nor for one moment, have I hated Israel. I am blown away with what they have done with a dry patch of earth tucked along side the Mediterranean. In my development work, I have worked with Israeli general contractors [who emigrated to the states] and their Israeli crews.......and the Israelis always pushed and we argued and yelled all the time........and those were the best jobs. ;~))

No, Albert, I don't hate Israel. I want what's best for Israel and I don't think war is where its at......but of course, that's just my opinion.
