WHAT EXACTLY ARE YOU CLAIMING - THAT ALL THE ARTICLES REPORTING THAT THEY HAVE BEEN MOVED YO A TOXIC RUBBISH DUMP ARE FABRICATIONS OR THAT MOVING FAMILIES NEXT TO A TOXIC RUBBISH DUMP IS ACCEPTABLE AND "RATHER GOOD" TREATMENT?
"I have repeatedly said that present-day Israel is a grave disappointment"
Sorry Mike - in the face of the behaviour that is being discussed -lip service.
Perhaps you would like to comment on the Israelis treatment of the Bedoiuns - fabrication or acceptable?
It is not my "distorted history of the entire aspiration" - it is what is happening on a daily basis I have been criticising. I don't have a great deal of knowledge of Zionism as a philosophy (though I have made clear I do have reservations about any religious influence in the day-to-day running of any country), but I can pick up a newspaper and read what an Zionist influenced extremist government is doing in pursuit of its present day aims
If you tell me that is a distortion of Zionism as you understand it, I will happily bow to your superior knowledge, but I do know that war against women and children is evil, whoever carries it out, and I do believe this is what the Israelis are doing, and that they are the aggressors here.
None of this excuses your apparent racist double-standards - Keith has at least made his racism abundantly clear for all to see.
