Additionally...

"Among the most disturbing political phenomena of our times is the emergence in the newly created state of Israel of the Tnuat Haherut, a political party closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal, to the Nazi and Fascist parties. It was formed out of the membership and following of the former Irgun Zvai Leumi, a terrorist, right-wing, chauvinist organization in Palestine.

The current visit of Menachem Begin, leader of this party, to the United States is obviously calculated to give the impression of American support for his party in the coming Israeli elections, and to cement political ties with conservative Zionist elements in the United States.


Today they speak of freedom, democracy and anti-imperialism, whereas until recently they openly preached the doctrine of the Fascist state. It is in its actions that the terrorist party portrays its real character; from its past actions we can judge what it may be expected to do in the future.


A shocking example was their behavior in the Arab village of Deir Yassin. This village, off the main roads and surrounded by Jewish lands, had taken no part in the war, and had even fought off Arab bands who wanted to use the village as their base. On April 9 (The New York Times), terrorist bands attacked this peaceful village, which was not a military objective in the fighting, killed most of its inhabitants - 240 men, women, and children - and kept a few of them alive to parade as captives through the streets of Jerusalem."

- Albert Einstein, NY Times (Dec 4, 1948)

Who is the violent aggressor in this situation?

Who is just trying to defend themselves from death and destruction...total destruction!


There in lies the problem.

"I don't like" and "pure hatred", are two different mindsets

One more time... the Palestine-Israel issue is not a Muslim versus Israel issue (it also requires that there can be no Israeli Muslims... is there a law that prevents Israelis to be Muslims?). Palestine is an Arab cause, which is not a religion, but has populace following primarily Christian and Muslim religions.

Maybe because there has been a severe REGRESSION.

Face it Pubs, this souped-up Clarence Thomas is no more qualified to challenge this great President than a drunken sailor on crack.
