"How amusing that the Palestinians accuse the Israelis of racism. There is much more tolerance for Palestinians working and living in Israel than there is for jews living and working in Palestinians Authority controlled territories." What are you talking about, man? Israelis don't want to live and work in the WB or Gaza. And as for Palestinians, they do all the dirty work that the Israelis don't want to do. Way to change the topic. The topic is racism, and the reality that Palestinians, while accusing Israelis of racism, are themselves far more racist. I notice you didn't disagree with that, so we agree on that point. Pretty amazing that we found anything to agree on. Progress!

What are you talking about, man? Israelis don't want to live and work in the WB or Gaza. 1 - Ever hear of the settlements? Also there are a very small number who live or work outside of the settlements but in the WB or Gaza. 2 - More might want to work there if it wasn't for the racism and terrorism that they encounter. Why not fix the reason for the attacks instead of building a 20 foot high wall? Because the reason for the attacks can not be fixed easily, perhaps not at all. And you see a wall as a solution? No I see it as potentially useful for Israel. But while it might help contain the problem it will not resolve it. Its a palliative not a cure. Tim
