There is a common theme. Nothing is ever Israel's fault. Things are always cradled in that context. I exchanged emails with two commentators at the National Post recently over things they wrote. One of them hautily suggested she would not exchange any more notes with someone who could not comprehend that Israel is only acting in self-defence. As if this were really obvious. They destroy an entire country's roads, bridges, ports, power stations, kill hundreds of innocent civilians, all because of a threat whose full fury of rocket fire has only killed a tenth as many innocent people as they have killed. Over and over again, nothing is ever Israel's fault. Israel is never to blame. Israel is always the victim. They wear the white hats and their neighbours wear the black ones. I will not accept it, and I think that anyone intellectually honest cannot accept it.

I see that we are stubbornly clinging onto this subject...If that is the way it is...can someone tell me what contributions arabs have made to humanity? ie., what is the the ratio of nobel laureates of Jews verses the arab world?
