I was focused on your flawed logic and pathetic attempt to sound intelligent and hide your racist views (which still manage to permeate your words). I did address your question, though you seem to want to deflect my comments and antagonize me. That being said, I will humor you for the moment. Assuming, hopefully, that you will properly address my prior posts as I have addressed yours. As someone who is non-religious (agnostic deism), I would never fit the description of "zionist." However, I believe zionism as a non-religious issue is complicated. In truth, I'm not sure if I would have supported the initial creation of a separate Israeli-jewish state in 1947 (slightly leaning toward not). This comment, of course, is obfuscated by the fact that I cannot actually erase my knowledge of the past 55 years. However, we were the victors in WWII, and as such I believe it was within our right to do. All this aside, Israel was created and it exists today. Israel has been a strong and loyal ally, and for many reasons, it is beneficial to the interests of the United States to maintain a close relationship with Israel. Unfortunately, the Palestinians have chosen a path of resistence that is repugnant to western ideals. While I believe that Israel has been at times too heavy handed in their dealings with the Palestians, I believe much of their current plight is of their own making.
