Given the steady diet of poisonous anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli propaganda that rains down on them, it is a wonder the number is not higher Goldsnow, I am not going to debate with you on this issue since what you say is correct. But I would also ask you if you think if the solution to this is to go on a military rampage harming civilians. Just to give you an example, what do you make of Israeli tanks rolling into civilian areas of West Bank, crushing cars and trucks along the way, having a bulldozer behind to scoop those items to the side of the street. When people see this, it is very difficult for people to believe any Israeli propaganda which says and I quote from your post: ".....Blessings, indeed. Among most Israeli Jews, life is taken seriously -- and profuse apologies emanate from the government whenever a bystander is killed in an anti-terrorism operation....." Stated simply, the Israeli/Palestenian solution is not a military solution and it is similar to what Hitler thought about the Jews. He thought he could kill and exterminate the Jews. But he was utterly utterly wrong. And surely this time the Israelis find themselves on Hitler's side. Hitler said the same thing as the Israeli propaganda is saying: "Look they are killing us, They are poisoning us. Hence our actions are to ensure we survive. So let us go and exterminate our enemies." I will reserve further comment after I see what your thoughts are. I am sure that you are very capable of holding a good exchange and that you would not hastily jump on the bandwagon of accusing people as anti-Semitic.
