Sun, when people compare Jews with Nazis, it seems to me they are saying more about themselves than the Jews. What it says is something quite hideous. <Generations of operating in the "survival" mode has created a nation more at home with war and atrocity and with many Nazi values than the civilized world. > While one can make theoretical arguments about how Israel is an apartheid state and evil to the core, in practise, it's an absurd idea. Life is good in Israel for different people, including Arab Moslems who ignore the call to jihad against Jews and others. It's like comparing Jews to Nazis. Out of all the barbarities in the world, how come this one gets your juices going? Have you heard of Darfur and many places in Africa? There are more death squads in Brazil's police force than in Israel. How are things going in Zimbabwe? Should those Catholics in East Timor be under the yoke of Moslems? Have you got other examples of comparing somebody with Nazis or do your reserve that for Jews. What are those Nazi values you were thinking of? I can't actually come up with any. None that are particular to Nazis. They are voluntarily shrinking the state [having given up Gaza]. They didn't murder everyone in Gaza. They are quite particular about who they target. Their uniforms are quite different. Their goose-stepping style and calling of Sieg Heil is very poor quality. They don't have any extermination slave labour camps. They seem to be the antithesis of Nazis. Mqurice

You have nothing against Jews ? LMAO ! Its wonderful to know that you can ID an "average" person and at the same time recognize bigotry. Have you ever been to Israel ? I doubt that based on your statement comparing it to South Africa. Were you around to see firsthand Nazi values ? I doubt that based on your statement comparing Israel to Nazi Germany. You can't see this because you see yourself connected to them and we all want to see ourselves in the best of lights. I see you as a fool based on your statements alone. I have been to Nazi death chambers and have met survivors as well. I have been to Israel and you have not a clue as what life is like their. Nazi values my arse. I prefer to view the world as it is. You, OTOH, seem to be operating in a vacuum and are unable to see past your nose. Have no fear ST.. I have nothing against academic pinheads. I actually know a few and prefer their company over screaming children.
