Most of your posts center around blaming the victims ("I don't give a f*** about the Palestinians..etc"). You justify ethnic cleansing of Palestinian lands by the brutal Israeli army. You find execuses for Israeli apartheid and think the Palestinians should simply disapear to make room for God's chosen people. You resent calls for Palestinians to have equal citizenship rights to Israeli Jews because they would represent a "demographic threat" to the "Jewish" state!

After all this, you have the tenacity to accuse others of being Nazis! Well, Sir, I think if you examine your views closely, you may find they have quite a lot in common with the Nazi ideology.

Working for peace in the Middle East and a restoration of America's position in the region and the world. Hopefully, you and likeminded people in Congress can thwart the plans of the NeoCons and the Israel Lobby to bring us war with Iran and Syria. After all, American boys are still dying in the first war they brought us under false pretenses.

Funny how anyone who points out the ethnic cleansing of Palestine and the apartheid policies of the Israeli state is accused of being anti-Semitic. Well let's look at facts as "Realname" suggested. Here are a couple of quotes, one from one of the founders of Israel who knows what he is talking about when he talks about ethnic cleansing. The other from a man who experienced apartheid first hand.

"Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist, not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahlal arose in the place of Mahlul; Kibbutz Gvat in the place of Jibta; Kibbutz Sarid in the place of Huneifis; and Kefar Yehushu'a in the place of Tal al-Shuman. There is not one single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population."

- Moshe Dayan addressing the Technion in Haifa (as quoted in Ha'aretz, 4 April 1969)

"Yesterday's South African township dwellers can tell you about today's life in the Occupied Territories. To travel only blocks in his own homeland, a grandfather waits on the whim of a teenage soldier. More than an emergency is needed to get to a hospital; less than a crime earns a trip to jail. The lucky ones have a permit to leave their squalor to work in Israel's cities, but their luck runs out when security closes all checkpoints, paralyzing an entire people. The indignities, dependence and anger are all too familiar.

Many South Africans are beginning to recognize the parallels to what we went through. Ronnie Kasrils and Max Ozinsky, two Jewish heroes of the anti-apartheid struggle, recently published a letter titled "Not in My Name." Signed by several hundred other prominent Jewish South Africans, the letter drew an explicit analogy between apartheid and current Israeli policies. Mark Mathabane and Nelson Mandela have also pointed out the relevance of the South African experience."

As visually attractive as they are, I cannot stomach another Tarantino's flick with all the blood and violence.

Sugarman and Realname,

It is sad that you think you are defending Jews when in fact you are defending a brutal apartheid regime in Israel that has done nothing but bring about insecurity and an uncertain future for Jews and Palestinians alike. Many Jews have recognized this and taken action constant with the universal human values to which you two so clearly do not subscribe.

Listening to the Neocons' viscious attacks on Pelosi, it is clear she has hit a nerve.

For the Neocons and the Israel Lobby, now is the time to prepare the public for war with Iran, using the same tactics they employed to promote the invasion of Iraq.

The last thing they need, is a democratic Speaker of the House who challenges their "approach" to the Middle East.

The Iraq war of choice has brought so much death and injury to America's dedicated young men and women in uniform and a great erosion of America's moral, political and economic standing in the world, not to mention the death and injury of hundreds of thousands of Iraqis with millions turned into refugees.

What I find truly amazing is how unrepentent the Neocons and the Israel Lobby - who brought about this war under false pretenses- are!

Not only are they unrepentent, they have the nerve to continue to tirelessly push for a new war with Iran using the same tactics.
