Hey Keith, I do criticize Syria. There is no hatred and bigotry on my part toward Israeli people. I sympathize with their predicament, they have leaders who are not being just.
Here's an item that you might look at.

Freedom from slavery?

Remember Keith that Palestinians are a Semitic people also and there is a difference between being anti-Zionist and anti-Jewish. Since I come from a long line of Jews, I am not anti-Jewish, quite the contrary, proud of the people on my mother's side who were Ashkenazim in Hungary and Austria.Many preserve Palestinian rather than Babylonian traditions. 80% of Jews are Ashkenazim.

Bobad, it isn't about me. What is relevant here is there is justification for Israeli incursion into Lebanon unless it is national paranoia. This also applies to the subjugation of the Palestinian people.
