Michael ...so many dont understand what is going on there......myself among them.

I cant begin to fathom what it must be like to have lived in oppression........

I cant begin to fathom what it must be like to yern for a home free from fear.......

I cant imagine what it must be like not to have a land or state to call my own.

I cant immagine what it must be like to be a victim of prejudice.

I cant imagine what it must be like to have fought and won a home and still live in fear of loosing that home.

HOWEVER

I am just plain tired of this palastinian problem.

I want it to go away.

I dont want to have to bother about the crappy mid east anylonger.

THAT IS WHAT I AM FEELING!

I know that it would be a mistake ....to just turn my back on it.

I know it might very well get a lot worse if we leave.

But i am sick and tired of it and want a good dose of isolation and non intervention.

Fuck foreign affairs!!!!!!

Let Them fry in their own fires!!!!!!

Its time money was spent here at home ...not in some never ending blood feud.

..............I know its wrong but i am everyday more willing to vote for someone who ,no matter how stupid it is,unilaterally withdraws us from the middle east.

signed...a fed up american

You think abbas cares about arabs on the west bank, gaza or lebanon returning to Haifa?

No, you're wrong here mike. Abu Mazen has to care; the PLO has spent 40 years promising all the refugees that they will get to go back to Jaffa and Haifa. Remember, at Taba the two sides had actually agreed on Jerusalem and borders. Then Arafat broke the deal over "right of return".
