I traveled from San Diego to Israel/Palestine in 2003 to film a series of documentaries about Palestine and the apartheid wall. I was there for 3 months, and you're description of the difference between the Israeli people and the Palestinians is spot on. When I tell my friends in American how gracious and generous the Palestinians were to me, they seem confused because of all of the negative propaganda about Arabs they are exposed to by the American mainstream media. On the other hand, most of the Israelis I had to deal with were rude, condescending, suspicious and hostile. If the American people teally knew the truth about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, they would not be supporting Israel.

The American “people” is comprised of many groups and some of them are quite proud of having done the same to native Americans, and a great many long for a return to the apartheid aka Jim Crow days.

Unfortunately their heats and minds are deeply enough corrupted that indeed they would knowingly support Israel, as opposed to the current state which is that many of them just don’t even want to know.

Tough medicine.

Lots of examples of this throughout history, so, don’t be guilty of presentism. We are no different than those who came before us and their disputes were worked out just like this one.

At some point in the future, the Jews will have either have won or been eradicated from the Middle East. That’s what this is about. That is their enemies plan.

If I were a Jew, I would be just as hard: 1 billion Muslims want them dead or at least gone.

I think it’s time to engage the party of God. Avail them of their God.

You don't know what you're talking about. "Presentism?" "We" are no different from those who came before us? You speak only for yourself, boy.
