and you ought to know that there are varying definitions of "occupiers", Carol ...it is NOT cut & dried & simplistic.

Ok, I will rephrase...

There are occupiers and those who are living, with no civil rights or human rights whatever, under a brutal military occupation. That is about as cut and dried as it is possible to get.

There was an editorial in the Wash. Post today that explained it...it is, in the last analysis, about whether Israel shoud even exist or not.....and THAT is not cut & dried, either!

No it isn't. It is, in the last analysis, about whether or not Israel should continue to expand its borders and keep millions of people under a brutal and totalitarian military occupation, and to continue to commit acts of aggression against its neighbors.
