Well, I will say it. I am so disgusted, horrified, and enraged by the way Israel arrogantly flaunts their wealth and military might over a subjugated people, by the way they blatantly lie about the murder and genocide that they are perpetrating. And this is NOT about religion. This is about an EVIL agenda.
Is there a real difference between them and the Nazis? No, there isn't. Why did we always learn about the Holocaust in school?.....Oh yeah, because we don't want it to be repeated....hmmm. Never forget. Never forget.
Maybe somebody didn't quite get that there are other people in the world just as important as they who deserve to live in dignity just as much as they do.
If we remain quiet, we are complicit, and I am not complicit. I will not be cowered by the fear of being called 'anti-semetic'.
Hello, the Arabs are semites too!!!!
I will NEVER forget seeing Ehud Olmert on Nightline, when he was the 'mayor' of Jerusalem. He told Ted Kopel, and I paraphrase, that the Palestinian people were 'not the same as you and me' they were 'different'. I was so happy when Ted got visibly maddened and told him that they were indeed the same and that their mothers and fathers wanted their children to have a chance at life and safety too.
I shuddered and thought, if someone like that ever got a larger audience, he could be really dangerous....
May God help the oppressed all over the world.

It seems that within all this mess, people tend to forget basic human rights of both the oppressor and the oppressed. Both the Israelis and the Palestinians have a right to live, just not over of each other's rights.
Once the Israelis realize that, they'd be in a much better position to address their own security as well as those whose lands they've stripped under the guise of their 'divine' rights to those lands!
Hey Aggz,
You are right. It is a microcosm of the world even. No one can be *truly* prosperous when they are oppressing another. They can shut the doors and turn up their music, but ultimately they cannot drown out the suffering of others.
