<Russia and Palestine good.>

????????????????

Jeez, where do I start.

I haven't made many posts on Russia, but I have made many posts re Israel-Palestine. Maybe you had me on ignore, for the many many posts in which I said, in great detail, that I agreed with Nadine, that Arafat was not a partner for peace, that he had to give up the "right of return" before he gets a State, that Arafat (and all the visible alternatives to Arafat) are committed to violence to achieve their goals, that they have consistently engaged in self-destructive and delusional acts, that Hamas and Islamic Jihad and Hezbollah have to be destroyed militarily before there can be any peace.

A more accurate description of my take on the Israili-Arab conflict, is that I see it as Black and Black. I am a pacifist who sees both sides in that conflict committed to violence, committed to methods that have not, and will not, work. Geez.
