Your comparison between rape and murder and stealing sweeties is more than a little fatuous doncha think Mike?
An Israeli regime that facilitated the massacre of 3,500 refugees may not measure up numerically to the annihilation of 6,000,000 human beings, but there is little to choose between motivation of both.
This is why, I believe, it is valid to compare such actions one with the other and why is it equally permissible to compare what now appears to be happening in Israel with what happened in South Africa.
By the way, I intended to respond to your 'whoops' apology on the other thread, but Mudcat appears to be only intermittently accessible here in the Wild West
No apologies needed, would that all our differences were as trivial!
