They should allow it to happen and not retaliate. The Spanish people in Spain murder those who plant bombs on train tracks and that is wrong. In fact the entire nation of Spain should be destroyed.....But I don't have anything against Spanish people."

The fact is Israel treats non-Jews better than any Arab nation on earth treats non-Muslims. Non-Jews can live, work, vote, and hold office (including women) in Israel and are not harassed or discriminated against because of their religion. There isn't one other nation in the middle-east that can claim the same thing.

The post I made of Mr. Plaut's article was very accurate and describes the hypocricy of the anti-Zionist cause.
No offence to you Radar, but comparing anti-zionism to saying that terrorist action is justified is quite frankly, a stupidly ignorant claim.

Israel is not Judiaism. Israel is Zionism. Judiaism is Jews. Israel, while having a population that is a majority Jewish, is Zionism. Just as a country that has a majority Islamic population yet clearly has the view of the Quran distorted is not Islam.

Who gave Israel the right to settle on that land? Who gave them the right to try and force the Palistinians out of that land?
