"It was you (BILOW) who dragged Masada into the conversation, apropos of absolutely nothing. Just an excuse to throw stones as far as I can see.

HI Nadine,
Way it seemed to me too. Same with GST as well when he leaves his liberal internationalist, multi lateral approach to impugn the motives of just one group. Perfectly reasonable one second and then tweaking me or you with the Jewish thing. I can be aggressive as hell here but i never attack folks on their ethnicity, gender, sexual preferences etc. It just seems to me that i spend an inordinate amount of time defending the actions of either israelis, american jews or now Masada Jews. I am not religious. I am not a zionist. I and American Jew who is both proud to be an American and proud to look at Israel with the same type of pride that Italian-Americans look at Italy for example.
Why does Bilow bring up Masada? I dont think he hates Jews. I just think he thinks that Jews who support Israel are refusing to analyse history correctly. Why then not attack the majority of Christian Americans (and i am not talking of the evangelicals) who belive Israel is more right than wrong as may jews do? Mike
