Germans would also be as popular as The British.

I think I also recall that incident. It was an unforgivable act on the part of evil people who happened to be Israelis.


"evil people who happened to be Israelis"

Just shows your bias. You would never say the same when talking about Palestinian killers.


Kraichgauer was being exceptionally neutral/objective...
To me it was a very considered statement...
I have no doubt Bill could/would substitute "Palestinians" for "Israelis" in another context...
He is one of the good guys... 8)

To me, it looks like your objectivity is in question...
No offence intended... :wink:

We all have our bias'...
It is a case of realising what they are, accepting ownership and managing them...

Cheers m8... :wink:

I've never blamed all the Palestinian people for the outrages of their terrorists.


Intelligent people don't stereotype... :wink:

Not all Germans are bad...
Not all Jews are good...

Am I stating the obvious?
I sincerely hope you agree... :wink:

As Desmond Tutu said "those neutral in times of injustice are on the side of the oppressor". If an Israeli carries out a sick act it's "well they just happened to be Israeli", but not the same sentiment when an act is carried out by one of the million times weaker Palestinians.

When a Palestinian does something it's terrorism. When the Israelis carry out the terrorism it's 'well Hamas shouldn't fire rockets'.

Like an Israeli soldier said after the 2008/9 massacre "it was like burning up ants with a magnifying glass". Anyone who thinks that's a situation to be neutral in has a lot to answer for.

I am not even sure you are refering to my post...

I think you are mixing contexts...
If you are indeed replying to my post I will elaborate... :wink:

You are mixing Bill's context with others with a less enlightened context/mind-set...
Bill is being objectively fair-minded ...
Some others are totally biased, fuelled/powered by emotionalism/tribalism/racism...

You mean you agree with him?
Him and you just are ignorant on this issue, that's why you think he's being "objective".
Yep, he's continuously made excuses for a racist state.

What *is* Bill's position from your point of view?
We can both dissect him publically, if you wish...
You hold is arms while I hold his legs... :mrgreen:

Oh...
You made that clear...D'oh! :mrgreen:


I believe Bill isn't Jewish...(please correct me if I am wrong)...
I should have asked him in private mail...D'oh... :mrgreen:
Neither am I, so there isn't any significant cultural bias towards favouring Israel that I can see...
Am I being too simplistic?

My premise/position is that both parties are human with human frailties...
Both parties are prone to emotionalism at times...
But, as I said, both are human...
I can't see Bill's attitude to be different from mine...

There is evil on both sides...<shrug>
Where is the problem with stating the obvious? <shrug>

I am not your enemy, m8...
Cheers... :wink:

It doesn't matter what he thinks. And if I do that it will just be seen as a personal attack.

People are petrified of criticising Israel. That's down to decades of propaganda. The US gives Israel $10 million a day so they can't have people being against that country.

Israeli soldiers have said after Gaza massacres that it was like "burning up ants with a magnifying glass" or like playing a "playstation computer game". Sound like 50/50 fight?

Palestinians don't have Israelis locked up in a cage.

Just out of curiosity, going back through the history of the conflict, at what point do you believe Israelis became the aggressors and what do you think could have been done differently early on to prevent the conflict?

They became the aggressors before the state of Israel was created. They were blowing up British people in hotels in the 40's and even blow up a boat full of Holocaust surviving Jewish refugees. It didn't stop there. The real turning point was in 1967 when Israeli Generals like Matti Peled turned on the state after it stole land when they won the war. Israel also bombed a US intelligence ship for over two hours.

The US have a lot to answer for. The only President that tried to reign Israel in was JFK.

Before the creation of the state of Israel, who is "they"?

I agree...
Even today I think twice about making a comment or simply an observation about the Jewish community...

I am not anti-semitic...
I simply resent the political correctness card that is so often played at the expense of freedom of observation...
