Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Anti-semitism
I know Carol and being an anti semite is not within her. She certainly is not a fan of the policies of the government of Israel. One of the flaws, however, that I have always found in her arguments is that they are based on the displacement of Palestinians by the "creation" of Israel. It always ignores the displacement of the Israelis throughout recent and ancient history. It is fair to say that there is not a more discriminated and attacked group in the world. When viewed in the light of this occurring over generations, one understands the attitude displayed. Anyone who expects the Israeli government to negotiate with a group of people dedicated to the destruction of Israel is out of touch with reality.
