"The fact is that you and Stringsinger hate Israelis so much that you felt driven to attack them in a thread with no relevance to them, on an issue that has no connection with them."

This is a lie. I know many Israeli friends.   Not all of them support Netanyahu's authoritarian regime. I call your attention to two leading dissidents, one of them Israeli, Uri Avnery and the other a Jew, Norman Finkelstein who are critical of the Netanyahu regime.

Here's how the government of Israel is culpable. They have secret intelligence
agencies that stir up instability surreptitiously and tried to involve the U.S. by advocating the bombing of Iran but their dilemma is that they want the Assad
regime to remain in power to stabilize their boundaries with Syria. The conflict they have is that if they support the Rebels which some members of AIPAC have advocated, they will encourage the Sunni elements to emerge. The Syrian Civil War can be traced to 1967 borders where Israel had taken Syrian land in the Golan Heights and started to build settlements there in violation of UN mandates. As long as Assad remains in power, these boundaries will be frozen, they think. This is why Israel supports Assad and takes sides in the Syrian Civil War.

Iran has never said officially that they want to wipe Israel off the map. This is sheer paranoia and Zionist propaganda.
