Subject: RE: BS: Israeli soldiers charged with war crime
we should all be working for peace, in the middle east and every where else. AND one MUST be allowed to question the policies and actions of the Israeli government without being called an anti-Semite.

I do not dispute the right of anyone to question the policies and actionsof the Israeli government. I am myself no fan of Sharon, and I do not support much of what the Sharon government has done in the very necessary fight against terrorism. If it were up to me, there would be a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from the Palestinian territories and a dismantling of the Israeli settlements.

However, what I do find disgraceful is when criticism of the Israeli government is shrouded in anti-Semitism. There is too much of that in the world and there is too much of it right here at Mudcat. The language that RO1SIN chooses is loaded anti-Semitic language. RO1SIN knows that and that seems to be RO1SIN's purpose.
