re: It's way too convenient to just sit back and dismiss that sort of anti-Semitic rhetoric, or come up with cold explanations.

I could have said I was shocked and enraged that Iran's President was an anti-Semite, but I think I would have looked a little stupid.

re: This is no time to be sitting on the fence.

What fence is that? I think both sides are borderline psychotic.

re: This is a time to decide who's side you're going to be on.

Why? I think they are both wrong.

re: If you don't want to be on Israel's side, then go ahead and advocate the moving of millions of Israelis to New Jersey.

I don't want Israel in New Jersey, are you nuts?

re: Neither Israel nor her enemies are going to listen to those fence-sitters who claim they are "on the side of peace."

I think I'm the only "fence sitter" that "claimed" that, so I suppose you mean me. Listen... Lebanon was doing really well, almost a model of what we want growing in the ME. Now it's a shambles, infrastructure destroyed, maybe a million refugees. If you choose to look for the good side of that, all I can do is argue, I just don't see a good side.

Nixon engaged China; it worked. Reagan engaged the USSR; it worked. Carter engaged Egypt and Jordan; it worked. Bush used the Israeli method to engage Iraq, and look at the results.

You can't think what is happening in Lebanon is a good ting for Lebanon, right?

The way I see it I'm on the side of America... you can pick whatever "team" you want.

You're not quite getting the plan right. The US should make the citizenship + a 5 year generous stipend offer available, but only the ones that want to move would move. Those that want to remain where their neighbors hate them and fight for eternity can do so, just not with US support.....
