sammy,

As you know many righteous Jews went to America's South in the 1960s and confronted the bigots who were opposed to integration of the Black and White people and for equal, civil rights for all.

As history is playing out, many Jews, who otherwise champion the rights of others, fall silent when the issue is Isra'El and Palestine, often scurrying for cover behind a facade of anti-semitism [sic].

It seems the many Isra'Elis now hold the ground that was once that of the KKK and John Birch Society members and those other racist rednecks in the 1960s.

Isra'El in effect is telling those who have gone to Palestine to tell the Isra'Eli Government that they are practicing bigotry, denying the Palestinian people their civil rights and ethnically and religiously cleansing the land for Jews alone, to go away and mind their own business.

Just as it was in the South with those Eastcoast Jews who confronted those "other bigots".
