Israel apologized and reimbursed the family of fallen sailors.

Bullcrap, the U.S thought it was one of the Arab countries, some guy, his last name was Johnson, got a call and found out that it was Israel, and then he canceled off the jets.
I found really a really good documentary on it, i will look for it.

It could be, if he isn't American. David Duke is very well known here. You should hear what he has to say about Arabs too. He hates them. Though he talks about being in the KKK in the book he recommended.

They couldn't read the Israeli pilot's mind, they couldnt know if it was a case of mistaken identity or not. They're too traumatized and emotionally distrubed by the incident to have a legitimite say. | | Reply To this Message

Well I'm nothing if not polite. Sometimes. I just got asked by someone in another thread if I was another poster as well, and I didn't take offence to it. Fact is, people post under multiple nicks all the time, so I can't blame someone for being suspicious.
The person was raven200, but then the admin emailed him making it clear that we lived on different sides of the world and we couldn't be the same person.
We agree on the terrorist nature of Islam.
He thought that I am pretending to be an anti-zionist to take away suspicion, and apparently me becoming anti-Islam gradually was another way to show how good devildog is.
That's a hoot. You two are the last I would ever accuse of being the same person.
Your views on Israeli conduct are pretty clear, but do you also think that Islamic extremism is a factor in the present dispute?

lol at least one man with a sense of humor... at least I hope it was Humor and not real.
Listen dude, you really think that Israel has such control on the US? give me break. the US are nice, not like some oher countrys that I will not remind here...
Israel is getting help from the US and repaying in help. Who helped the Generals and commanders of the US to learn anti-terror methods in Iraq? Israeli commanders. And there are plenty more examples. I admmit that the US is much more supporting, But Israel is a weaker country. If Israel really had such control over the US they would let us do whatever we want.
You know that the IDF, Israeli Defence Force, is the stronget army in the whole middle east? you Know the we could wipe out gaza and the west bank in like 5 minutes? But we are doing what the US is asking from us and we hold our forces. We want peace, unlike some other countrys or would-be-countrys in the area, if u know what I mean...

I don't know, sir, I think Israel is one tough cookie even in comparison to the US.
I am not sure how long the US would stand up to constant infilitration of islamic terrorists on both the Canadian and Mexican borders.
It's truly a miracle Israel still stands while having her enemies on all borders determined to push her into the sea.
And it's insane that the rest of the world criticizes Israel for trying to defend herself. The US goes after Osama bin laden, and saddam hussein and that's ok with the world.
But when Israel kills a couple of Hamas leaders...it's an atrocity.
And to think the leader of terrorism, Arafat, gets a nobel peace prize makes my blood boil.
Double standard applies to Israel and it's wrong.
You have millions of Christians in America praying for Israel and for the peace of Jerusalem.

The Zionist occupied government (oh yeah, I'm not denying that our government is controlled by Zionists) is from Christian Zionism.

I'd like to comment on that with a piece I wrote last year.
Is support for Israel the same as support for Jews?
Neo Conservatives and Christian Conservatives are among the biggest supporters of Israel in the Israeli/Palestinian crisis. They provide political and financial aid for Israel. They have been seen as replacing Liberals and Democrats as the main support for Israel. The attacks on September 11th and the War on Terror have brought the right and Jews closer together than ever in the past. Is there any reason to question whether the goals are the same when it comes to Israel?
A study by Professor Kenneth D. Wald of the University of Florida and University of Texas Professor Elizabeth A. Oldmixon, presented their findings at a conference on The Religious Dimension in World Politics, organized by the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies at Israel's Bar-Ilan University.
The study analyzed voting in the House of Representatives from 1997 to 2002. It found that "in a very short period of time, support for Israel became more partisan, more ideological, and more religiously driven."
It noted widespread support for Israel in both houses. Now, "support for Israel was overwhelming, with many more Democrats and African-Americans supporting than not supporting Israel," the researchers wrote.
Jewish senators and legislators in the United States with large Jewish constituencies have been among Israel's strongest supporters.
In the 105th Congress, from 1997 to 1998, liberals were Israel's strongest supporters, "perhaps ... because they viewed Israel as the more vulnerable group." However by the 107th Congress, between 2001 and 2002, "It is not Jews, Democrats and liberals who are carrying Israel's banner in the House. Rather, it is Jews, evangelical and fundamentalist Protestants, Republicans and ideological conservatives," the researchers wrote.
"We might expect evangelicals to be relatively less supportive of Israel because ... they hold negative opinions about Jews," the report said referring to several studies published since 1966.
Nevertheless, "The unwavering support for Israel of born-again Christian politicians such as (House Majority Leader) Tom DeLay and President Bush is explained by reference to their 'devout religious beliefs,'" they wrote.
Oldmixon told the conference she suspects the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in New York and Washington made congressmen "more sensitive to domestic terror threats faced by Israel. For the neo-cons it's more an admission, 'We need to go get them.' For the religious conservatives this was ... not really strategically motivated. It was more from the standpoint, 'Look at these godless terrorists,'" she said.
The changing attitude towards Israel could divide the Democratic Party, since Jews, blacks, and liberals have been at its heart for decades, the researchers wrote.
They cautioned the Jews against relying on the evangelicals as "an unwavering source of support for Israel."
"What would happen to this support if Israel decided to withdraw from part or all the West Bank?" they asked.
They quoted Republican Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma, as having said the battle in the West Bank is not political but "A contest over whether or not the word of God is true."
"Does this mean that by going against the word of God in this or other ways, Israel would give up her right to American support?" the researchers asked.
"Secular (American) Jews and other secular Americans who care deeply about Israel must be cautious about relying too heavily on evangelical support," they concluded.
With all the help from the Neo Cons and the Christian Conservatives, are the best interests of Jews being protected? Is support for Israel the same thing as support for Jews?
The problem between pro-Israel Jews and pro-Israel Christian Conservatives is that the Christians believe that, come Judgment Day, Jews will have to convert to the true faith or be doomed for all eternity. This is the future for Jews in the Christian Conservative world. The long term survival of Jews is only an issue in bringing about the return of Christ. Jews are players in the Christian play who disappear in the 3rd act. It seems that Christian Conservatives only need Jews now to bring an end of Jews in the future. The Christian Conservative may try to hasten events in the belief that they are bring about the return of Christ and cause the death of million of Jews in the process. Jews must be on guard and not allow themselves to be pawns in someone else's idea's of their fate.
Jerry Fawell has stated
Millions of Jews will be slaughtered at this time but a remnant will escape and God will supernaturally hide them for Himself for the last three and a half years of the Tribulation, some feel in the rose-red city of Petra. I don't know how, but God will keep them because the Jews and the Chosen People of God." (December 2, 1984 sermon)
For Fawell, the Jews -- while they are very nice people that Christians support -- are the martyrs and the cannon fodder of Armageddon, enacting war, suffrage, and destruction only to have their remaining few souls converted to Christianity. Jerry Fawell also claims the Anti-Christ is a Jew.
Pat Robertson is another who has no use for Jews except either to get them converted or else slaughtered in the final cataclysm. Go read "The End of the Age" Pat Robertsons vision of the apocalypse. According to Pat, "The Jews will cry out to the one they have so long rejected, and He will come in heavenly power to give them deliverance.
The evangelicals like Fawell and Robertson and their followers believe Christians will be raptured to heaven before all the fighting between Jews and Muslims starts. Everyone left will face mass death and destruction. They are definitive and absolute about the future, and their theology does entail the destruction of millions of Jews in the battle of Armageddon
At the end of the day Jews only have other Jews to rely on. That's how it's always been for Jews. It is important to acknowledge the help Jews have gotten from Christians and the right but Jews must also be prepared for the day when Jews are forced to take sides in their own survival

Well yes, evangelicals support Israel for the sole purpose of them being raptured so they can go to heaven. That's why you see such a large conservative following for Israel.
But I think it's the wrong idea to try and push that Jewish and Israel are synonymous. Yes, Israel wants to be a Jewish state, but Jews everywhere should have no allegiance or loyalty to Israel. To me that's a subversive way f using a religion to push a nationalistic agenda. My other problem is that this post seems to want to pit to groups against each other as Jewish and Christian. This is the reason there is so much war and death in this world. This "sticking with your own" mentality is sickening no matter who uses it.

I support Israel because in Psalms it says to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, Not because it will cause the rapture to happen any sooner or for me to be caught up in the rapture.
We believe that the Jews are God's chosen people, even though many of them are in rebellion against God. And that is why we support Israel. And people who hate God, seem to hate the Jews too because they are His chosen ones.

There is nothing subversive of having loyalty to Israel. It is no difference than me having loyalty to New York even though I don't live there anymore. That doesn't mean I'm not loyal to the place I do live. Israel is the Jewish homeland. It is where the history of Jews started. Jews have always had a connection to the holy land. Who are you to say it's subversive? You seem to think that Jews who support and defend Israel aren't loyal to their own country what ever that country may be? That is nonsense. That is the excuse Hitler used to exterminate 6 million Jews. You seem to want Jews to not support or defend Israel. Well Dear Inner City Blue. Jews do and will continue to defend Israel because it's right. Jews are not going to depend on the goodwill of other people for our survival.
My post is not meant to pit one group against another. It is just pointing out some realities. If you want to bury your head in the sand and make believe that these realities don't exist that is your privilege. It is not mine however. It is important that these realities be discussed. It is because they aren't discussed that there are wars and deaths.

Yes, you do use subversive language, just as you're using subversive language to compare my comments to Hitler, which is just plain dumb. I was as much a target of Hitler as you were my friend, so don't brandish any criticism directed at your comments as being anti-Semitic.
That's like when they say all black people have their heart and soul in Africa. I'm sorry but no, the roots of many people of African descent may lie in Africa, but the generations are so far removed from the continent that Caribbean and blacks in the Americas don't have that link to Africans.
You may have the same religion, but that doesn't automatically link you to a custom or geographic location. What's Hitleresque about that? I wasn't saying loyalty to Israel was subversive, I was saying that saying Jews must be loyal to Israel is subversive because you're trying to define a country by a religion, and we all know what happens if you criticize a Jewish state.
I for one think Israel is a brutal country. Does that mean I think the Arab countries are angels? No, they're brutal too. So don't get ahead of yourself.

It is both. It is a secular state and it's the Jewish homeland. It has secular laws but it is also the Jewish holy land . You seem to infer that it can only be one or the other. It is not an either or antiJew. Normally when someone says something is a better description they are abe to contradict something. You have failed antiJew.

There is nothing subversive in comparing your language to Hitler when he made the same kind of claims about Jews being subversive. It was your claim not mine. If you don't want to be compared to Hitler maybe you should chose your words more carefully.

Who are you to tell me or any other Jew what my link to Israel is? Who are you to define Jewish loyalty? No Jew MUST be loyal to Israel? Jews are loyal to Israel because they chose to be. Jews who are not religious are still loyal to Israel. It is not only the homeland for Jews who are religious, it is the homeland for Jews who are not religious too. Religious beliefs is not a requirement for Jews to feel loyal to Israel. Jews who are not religious are persecuted simply for being Jewish, without having anything to do with their religious beliefs.

You are ignorant because you don't even take the time to actually read the words of another person. When did I suggest that Jews are being subversive? I said you and some people like you seem subversive in the language you use when you talk about Israel. You are not Judaism, you are Jewish. You don't represent the entire Jewish population, your argument is not automatically legitimate because you're Jewish.
I see no reason to even continue discussion in this forum with you because it's obvious if you disagree with someone, then you'll ask, "Are you Jewish?"
I'll let antizionist2004 make his arguments then, I don't agree with him completely, but at least he's not going to pull the Jew card. I'll have you know that I'm black and I recognize when someone is pulling the race card. You're no different than those people.

| Posted by: IsraelIs4Ever | | There is nothing subversive about anything I've said and I dare you to post anything I've said that is subversive. Do you even know what the word means?
Main Entry: sub·ver·sion
Pronunciation: s&b-'v&r-zh&n, -sh&n
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French, from Late Latin subversion-, subversio, from Latin subvertere
1 : the act of subverting : the state of being subverted; especially : a systematic attempt to overthrow or undermine a government or political system by persons working secretly from within
2 obsolete : a cause of overthrow or destruction
There is nothing subversive about my language. Post exactly what you think is subversive or admit you were wrong.

It was a simple question. Either you could answer or you could choose not to. You chose not to. When you post on matters of things about Jews it matters who you are. Don't post here anymore. Thats fine with me.

So because you're black you think that gives you a right to talk about matters of importance to Jews? Or to tell Jews what their links to Israel are? I wouldn't begin to think I know whats right for black people on matters that are specific to blacks. Where do you come off thinking you are in any position to tell Jews whats right for them?

You've given me another bad analogy. A black claiming he was pulled over because he was black is not the same thing as a Jew asking someone who is trying to define what is anti-semitic if he is Jewish. | | Reply To this Message

Again I missed nothing. You are arguing the wrong isssue with the wrong person. When someone tries to tell a Jew how they should feel about Israel that persons race does have a lot to do with the issue. Unless you are a Jew you can not tell a Jew how he should feel about Israel. You can not tell a Jew what his loyalty to Israel is. You can't tell a Jew that Jews everywhere should have no allegiance or loyalty to Israel. Only Jews know whats right for Jews.

You must be in complete tunnel vision mode. No one is telling you what you as a Jew should feel about Israel. No one is suggesting that at all. Read what Dekka has to say, read what I have to say, we're not saying how Jews should think in any capacity.

For you, Zionism=Judaism therefore Anti-Zionist=Anti-Semitism
if there is someone who's parents are Jewish, but they are anti-Zionist, they are not really Jewish.

Or perhaps they hold them to a higher standard because you criticize those that are most like you, not because you hate them, but because of the bond or values you may share. When you see a group of others like you not following these values, it pisses you off more.
Your argument is like the black people that got angry at Bill Cosby for making disparaging remarks about poor blacks (not because of the setting, but because he just made the remarks). If Bill Cosby was white, he'd be called racist, but because he's black you know it has nothing to do with self-hate; you know this especially by looking at how Bill Cosby has worked to give minorities a positive face on television. Now, Bill Cosby is angry because he looks at where he came from as a poor black man, looks at where some poor black men are now, and he's pissed about it. He is not being anti-black.
In the same way, there are Jews that feel they share the same roots with many other Jews. The Holocaust was an event that drew a connection to many of them. So when they look at the conduct of the Israeli government, some of them are pissed because they think, "Jews (or Israel, or whatever term you want) shouldn't be acting this way," so they criticize them, and they may be the harshest critics. This doesn't make them anti-Semitic because they have a different standard for Israel. They may have the highest standard for Israel and that doesn't make them anti-Semitic. A better example, if you're a democracy, and I'm a democracy, I will hold you to a higher standard than the dictatorship because we share the same form of government.

| Posted by: IsraelIs4Ever | | Thank you for your psychoanalyzing me. What pisses me off it when Jews defend Arab terrorists. What pisses me off is when Jews condone Arab terrorist or try and justify it. That's what pisses me off.
Your analogy with Bill Crosby is wrong. Bill Cosby is not attacking Blacks while condoning, defending or justifying the KKK. That is the equivalent of Jews attacking Israel while condoning, defending or justifying attacks on Jews.
Please don't speak for Jew on how they feel or what bonds they have. You are in no position to do that and you don't know what you're talking about. Jews had a connection with each other for thousands of years. It was not the holocaust that gave Jews a connection. The holocaust was the latest in a long line of crimes that gentiles have committed against Jews. It was not the first.

I see reading comprehension as well as writing skills are not your Strong suit are they? You brought up Cosby not me and I wasn't speaking for African- Americans when I wrote Bill Cosby is not attacking Blacks while condoning, defending or justifying the KKK. I was writing a fact.

I'll take this point directly, both in the abstract and referring to AZ.
In the abstract, this could be a fair and balanced position. However, too often you see people condemning terrorism only as lip service to make their position seem balanced. Take for example the Arab advocacy group called CAIR. They condemn terrorism in general but never any specific group or terrorist act. I see a lot of that type of thing among critics of Israel, be they Jewish or gentile. They'll write a book or an article or a forum post that is packed to the gills with nothing but criticism of Israel, much of it rhetorically heavy-handed and overstated (e.g. comparing Israel to the nazis), and there's a sentence somewhere in there like "oh, and of course, suicide bombing is terrible." Then the rest is justifications and excuses for it. I hardly call that a balanced position. And yes, I do think that at times it is motivated by anti-semitism.
As for AZ, you'll note that there is a logical inconsistency in his positions on Islam and his position on Israel/Palestine in one important sense. He recognizes that support for terrorism comes straight from the Qu'Ran, as well as intolerance of non-believers, but he refuses to concede that either of these factors plays ANY role whatsoever in the Israel/Palestine conflict. According to him, it is 100% the fault of the Israelis, and the Palestinians are just hapless victims. But when it comes to Islamic terrorism in other areas (e.g. Al Qaeda), he not only condemns it but claims it is a problem indemnic to Islam.
Take that for what you will.
