<< With all due respect do not get sucked into Gustave's pretense of being an anarchist. >> But.... but.... but. Admitting to being an anarchist is not something to be proud of. If Gustave wants to be known as a psycho anarchist, he can be my guest! <g> << True anarchists are opposed to government intervention into the lives of people ... >> What Anarchists don't realize is, that when there is no "organized" government intervention, there is unorganized intervention into the lives of people. Freedom isn't free. If a people are not willing to organize for the common good, and fight for their freedom, then they have serfdom, not freedom. Sorry about preaching to the choir. <g> << Even if Gustave sincerely believes that the Palestinians have been treated unfairly ... >> I agree with Gustave if he believes this. The Palestinian people HAVE BEEN treated unfairly. But not by Israel, by Arafat and the rest of the terrorists goons who control every miserable aspect of Palestinian life. Before the intafada, the Palestinians had progressed to having one of the highest standards of living within the Middle East. On top of that Arafat was offered a great peace deal, which included billions in support, their own state, trade, peace and most of the West Bank and Gaza. If Arafat would have accepted that offer, the Palestinian people would be dancing and singing in the streets rather than starving and bleeding. The antiSemites would rather ALL Palestinians suffer than to have Israel live in peace. << If Gustave were truly interested in Palestinian freedom he would be advocating a democratized Palestinan organization and ernestly pursue a policy of negotiation with Israel which is the one best hope for a Palestinian government. >> If Gustave was born with the human compassion attribute, he wouldn't be the thug that he is.
