"I was very surprised to hear a Jewish man I know recently defending the ouster of the Palestinians after WWII on the grounds that the Palestinians "lived in tents," "were nomadic," and "did not need the land, unlike farmers."" Israel has received almost $100 billion in welfare payments from the US in the last fifty years. This is not counting the hidden handouts like tax-exempt Israeli Bonds sold in the U.S., special legislation permitting retirement funds to invest in tax-exempt Israeli Bonds. The state of Calif. also passed legistlation permitting both the Civil Service Reitrement Fund and the Teacher's Retirement Fund to invest in tax-exempt Israeli Bonds. Many of these billions of dollars have gone into brutalizing the Christian and Moslem Palestinians and depriving them of their homes and lands. Some of our tax money has gone to illegally expand settlements in the West Bank. The Zionist influenced national media is always very sensitive Serb ethnic cleanising but never a word about Zionist ethnic cleansing against the Palestinians. The colonization of Palestine by Zionist has brutalized the Palestinian population and been a continuous process of ethnic cleansing for the last fifty years. The entire West Bank settlements are an extension of the ethnic cleansing idea and continues with our tax dollars even as we speak. Who will raise a national complaint when the national news media is dominated by Zionism. Any prominent journalist who does so risk being labeled as an antisemite. Emile
