Can Israel Survive 4 Another 60 years?
You forget nother ''categories'' of Jewish people who don't care...or wish they didn't have to..... Israel is, after all, a FOREIGN COUNTRY, if one does not live there. I know, I know....everyone in the USA has an ''old country''....so why not be proud of Israel being your ''old country'' if you are Jewish? One good reason is, there is no other ...

Weak logic...
Boycott has not done much. To say the Russian boycott of the '84 games was a ''success'' seems like a bit of a stretch, and to say that the American boycott in '80 was a success has more weight, but is still pretty damn thin. Whether or not it weakened Soviet propaganda efforts significantly is debatable, but what is not debatable is that the ...

Re: "World Jews"? Please. This is about AIPAC
Have any of the participants here ever been to jerusalem? there are three jerusalems. the new jerusalem is an israeli city, built by israelis in the past few decades, inhabited by israelis (jewish and arab). on the other hand, east jerusalem is as palestinian as harlem is african-american. israelis don't go there. and the old city; which the ...

Re: The old lie is convenient for Israel ...
Larry2: ... so it's hardly surprising that Rosner regurgitates it. ''Arafat balked at not having sovereignty over all of East Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount.'' That's former President Bill Clinton's version of the defining moment of the failed Camp David summit of 2000. ''He turned the offer down.'' Clinton ''called Arab leaders for ...

Re: How many newspapers published the holocaust cartoons?
HAROON:deathtotheswiss: I'm sorry, I hadn't noticed the planned extermination of the Palestinian peoples. Maybe, because it's just anti-''semetic'' rhetoric? ******* Wake up! What's your problem with'' anti-Semitism'' slogan? It has become, ironically, cowards Weapon. You are trying hard to make us reconsider the Holocaust in such a way to ...

Re: More Typos From greeneggsnham
greeneggsnham: So the UN resolutions aren't just the Arabs unfairly picking on Israel. They have broad support from the international community. Except, of course, for the original one, establishing the state of Israel. presumably, the UN was just kidding around at the time.

Re: Warsaw ghetto
greeneggsnham: “The one thing they'd like in return, however, is the right to be left alone to continue to live in Israel without continuous hostilities.” Israel will not be left alone. They will still have a large non-Jewish minority that will live as less than equal citizens in the Jewish State. This will cause resentment and unrest amongst ...

Re: It's More Like a Huge Open Air Prison
greeneggsnham: Hamas may want to destroy the Israel. But Israel has been steadily destroying the Arab Levant for over 100 years. (For the sake of brevity I will call the relevant part of the Levant ''Palestine''/''Palestinians'' even though the automatic counter argument by many is that there never was a state named Palestine.) The ...

Re: Warsaw ghetto
Scoot'r-d:greeneggsnham I am looking at history to emphasize the hypocrisy in the condition the Palestinians face. In the 30's European Jewry faced a monstrous ethnic inequity at the hands of Germany. Yet by the late 40's those same people were imposing another ethnic inequity on others. Though it is nowhere near as monstrous it is hideous that ...
