Sigh, NYC. I most probably won't stop it by my post, but we have been through that often, for example in this thread.

Whenever the question of Palestine/Israel comes up the opinions are so strong that no amount of information can change them. The site you have linked to seems to me to portrait history in a somewhat slanted way, more by omission than by wrong statements. You can read in the old thread that a different position can be argued for.

Soon, Carol will post here what she sees as the real truth (which is in my eyes at least as slanted as the site you have been linking to).

Most of us don't post to the history of that conflict any longer for these threads attrack outright anti-semites as Dreaded Guest and, in the best case, after a short time the debate becomes a link throwing match with Carol winning by exhaustion of all remaining opponents.

Read some of the old threads and you'll see that a rational discussion of that conflict here is not possible.
