Emile--- I am glad that you at least acknowledge that Zionism is not racism, since Jews represent every race under the sun---- there was even a small community of Chinese Jews who had intermarried and come to be Chinese. I personally would have preferred what is called the "bi- national" solution, but there are credible reports from the Ottoman Empire that the population of Palestine was see- sawing back and forth between Jews and Arabs from the end of the 19th century, and that many of the Arab residents were themselves recent immigrants. In any case, the Ottoman's and, later, the British mandatory power were within their rights to permit Jewish immigration to the area, and not all Zionists were intent upon a "mono- national" entity. As it happened, Arab intransigence and the Holocaust combined to create the present situation.

Emile,

Bill Clinton is the only President we ever
had who has gone around auditioning for the
Nobel Peace Prize. Remember that bizarre
idea he had to have the CIA act as babysitters
on the West Bank? Good thing that idea never
got off the ground. Bill Clinton is a hippy,
"I walk on water", pious, foolish, politically
correct bozo. The reason he thinks he can stop
a civil war that is over 600 years old is because
his brain is still at Woodstock. He obviously
did "inhale" because otherwise, he would under-
stand that what is going on in Palestine, Kosovo,
Ireland, and everywhere else a civil war is running
hot, is "self-determination", just like the United
States Constitution said is justifiable. Our
founding fathers held those truths to be self-
evident. Too bad Clinton is still on a power
rush. If Clinton understood this, he would not
escalate the violence in the Balkans...but now
a lot of people are going to die for his ignorance.
