Also, If Israel wanted to commit genocide against the Palestinians, they could have and would have done it already. The fact that there are millions of Palestinians living within and around Israel's borders is strong evidence that Israel does not have a policy of genocide. Or maybe the Jews are not as efficient as the Germans at mass slaughter?

Several days into the slaughter an informed Israeli strategic analyst observed, "The IDF, which planned to attack buildings and sites populated by hundreds of people, did not warn them in advance to leave, but intended to kill a great many of them, and succeeded."[16] Morris could barely contain his pride at "Israel's highly efficient air assault on Hamas."[17] The Israeli columnist B. Michael was less impressed by the dispatch of helicopter gunships and jet planes "over a giant prison and firing at its people"[18] -- for example, "70...traffic cops at their graduation ceremony, young men in desperate search of a livelihood who thought they'd found it in the police and instead found death from the skies."[19]

WOW, I ask you, please, before you throw anti-Semitic accusation, can you please highlight for everyone to see my anti-Semitic comments. I am really curious how you came to that conclusion. OTOH, if you are throwing accusation to silence the truth, than it is a different story. I will be waiting for your highlights.

p.s. Why did so many of you recommend such an anti-semitic post? I didn't realize this thread was populated by Muslim fanatics and devotees of the KKK.
It is too funny that you wrongly accuse my post of being anti-Semitic, yet you posts such racial bigotry.

If you ever took a class in logic, you would know your conclusion is a textbook hasty generalization.

If you knew much about Israel you'd know the citizens of Israel includes religious Jews, Muslims, a few Christians, and a large group of secular Jewish citizens, especially near Tel Aviv. Many of the Muslims and Christians are ethnically semitic. Many of the Israelis are technically not anymore, having generational roots going back hundreds of years in places like central Europe and Russia and having only recently emigrated since the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948.

A position that is critical of the state of Israel is not anti-semitic. It is a criticism of the government of Israel, not a race or ethnic group of people. When my family pledges allegiance, we pledge to the American flag.

As for your blanket KKK comment, I think that just speaks for itself.

Do yourself a favor and get both sides of the story. Talk to some Palestinians who have lived or visited Gaza and the West Bank and talk to some Israelis who have lived in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. Get it from people, not the media. Get first hand accounts, then report back to us what you think. Please don't just tell us what's been programmed into you.
