Jim to Keith: "you have found yourself very much in the minority".

To be in the minority should not scare anybody, particularly when discussing on the Israel/Palestine question, where in the Left wing political area, to which I think most of us belong, there is an overwhelming majority against Israel and an incredible (to me) support to political movements that despise freedom of thought and speech, critical education, equality between sexes, political and civil rights, division of powers, secularism, economic development.

It is important to weigh the ideas of the others, especially when they express a majority, but conformism should not be our reference.
