OCanada's two-state statement about Israel is ridiculous. As is his link above. Baducchi is correct.

Re: Israel and Zionism

. In the summer of 2000 at Camp David, Ehud Barak gave a very generous offer (and the world agreed, Jews and Israelis were dumbfounded by the generosity) to Arafat, a two-state solution and Yasser Arafat rejected the offer. How does that work with your supposition that Israel has never wanted a two...

Re: Israel and Zionism

Stating the obvious but wow it is a major change to be able to read a discussion about Israel that is not littered with inane pro-Hamas posts. Thank you to any and all who took care of that.

Re: Israel and Zionism

Yup. Irgun, Stern Gang and Haganah seem to have been removed from history... Personally I am tired of both sides crying how bad the other is and how clean "our" hands are. No one is claiming to be an angel. No one is claiming the other is pure evil. What was pointed at is Hamas being anyt...

Re: Israel and Zionism

Matnum, I hear you. Hamas is seeking peace while Israel are the real terrorists. That Israel does not want and has never wanted a two-state solution. Both these statements are factually wrong. Clearly. But they are still repeated. And... I hear you. Some posters will be less growth and change minded...

Re: Israel and Zionism

You're quoting one Israeli, one out of a population of over 9 million. He's the counsel head of a town of 1,599 people. You truly are ridiculous. That said, it's also an abhorrent statement by that individual. Easy to condemn. Of course. :roll: Only a psychopath would say otherwise. And when a blat...

Calling someone a piece of sh1t is not appropriate. Calling someone who supports Hamas a piece of sh1t is very different.

Re: Israel and Zionism

Brooklyn is consistently posting hateful posts iterating and reiterating his antisemitic, river to the sea perspectives and, most recently, one ups himself by re-posting a string of comments by white supremacists who, like Brooklyn, have no love for the "Zogs". Pretty impressive showing by...

Re: Israel and Zionism

Brooklyn, you're doing it again. Taking one sentence and saying, But look at this sentence. Observant Jews do not live according to a sentence. They live according to a system. So I repeat, you and your rabbi's interpretation is just pointing at a sentence and saying, But look! Brooklyn, why is tha...

Re: Israel and Zionism

Anyone can find a link to any number of ridiculous perspectives. It doesn't make the perspective any more truthful, any less ridiculous. Your links accomplish nothing. They just make you look gullible. And that you don't condemn Hamas makes you look even worse.

Re: Israel and Zionism

By the way, what role did Palestinians have in 9/11? In case you didn't know it, the perpetrators were Saudis, not Palestinians. Saudis who were financed by a wealthy family with close ties to the Bush clan. Shame on those who continue to harbor all that bigotry here on fanlax. You *definitely* do ...

Ironically, I have a Menorah medallion over my table. Just like these folks, ‘Not in our name’: Jewish peace activists across the US call for immediate ceasefire and justice for Palestinians...

Re: 2022--The Season in Review

Yes— I considered using the word great but then I thought the three losses to North Carolina were very disappointing. What word would you use? Great. Not as great as UNC but still great. But, for some (and I'm not saying you're one of them), there's only one great and everyone else is good or less.
