My life's experiences have taught me to always question the sources of information. Never accept anything blindly. Sharon has an agenda. Bush has an agenda and Arafat also has an agenda. Similarly, supporters of each have their own agendas. When engaging in a discussion I want to know if the person presenting the argument has an agenda which might skew his opinion. Does it make me anti-semitic, I don't think so. Unfortunately, a few posters on this board don't appreciate that I point out that their argument might be biased. They don't like to be told that they may not be objective in this discussion because of their personal or ethnic (for lack of better word)involvement. They like getting in the gutter like rats. Unfortunately, I join them and retaliate. Am I right in doing so? Probably not. But the way it is wrong to denigrate Jews it is also wrong to denigrate Italians, Germans, Chinese and even Arabs. Tyrants and idiots are not unique to one culture. To pompously denigrate one group while closing a blind eye to your own is hypocritical.
