Roberto, You said:

"These are the quotations from CarolC in this thread I'm making reference to"

I used my 'Find' button on my web browser to look for the two quotes you have attributed to carol as having been made in this thread.

It found both quotes.

But only one of them in a previous post by Carol, the other was only in a previous post by you.

The one which exists only in your posts is: "There is no reason not to trust Hamas. Their primary concern is the welfare of their people".

Which means that Carol can't have said that in this thread.

The other quote ...

"If Israel were to be handed to the Palestinians, all of the Jews who wanted to remain there would be able to and those who didn't want to remain there would be able to leave. It would be a democratic state"

... didn't read as Carols personal opinion of what might happen, but appeared to be her report of the likely viewpoint of Palestinians with whom she is in contact, as the whole post began with the following ...

"number6, from all of the information I have, and I have a lot of information from people in Palestine ... etc ..."


I am sure Carol will clarify her position on this when she comes back online.
