"I believe that Israel could close down all the settlements, home to 220,000 Jews, in the West Bank and Gaza Strip ..."

Hah! To repeat a phrase: That "will never never never never never never never be allowed".

Anti-semitism is a misnomer (Arabs are Semites also). It is in fact Racism against the Jews as a people.

This racism had had different shapes in different cultures. Sometimes it was blunt and open, sometimes it is hidden behind morally appealing smokescreen.

In Europe today, it is hidden behind the human righs for "Palestinians". But the message is clear: it is free season to attack Jews under guise of attack on Israeli domestic policies.

Sadly enough, many self-hating Jews and "people born into Jewish families" are activelly supporting racists.

Compared with them, David Irving is small fry.

The US could help Israel a LOT by offering a $50,000 bonus to every Arab family that leaves Israel; renounces any hope of further compensation; renounces any right of return and relocates to another Arab country.

$1 Billion out of that $87 Billion for Iraq would move out 20,000 families. Start with Gaza and make it a limited time offer. I'd bet you would have LINES of families signed up to leave.

Sad. Clinton got to within 95% then Bush dropped out. No compromise solution in sight, both want the same land and are unwilling to share it. Roadmaps go nowhere. Time for the endgame - total war or peace. Israelis will rely on military, Palestinians on demographics.

The P.L.O. is a socialist front.

World socialism --- including socialists who are Jewish by religion, by birth, or both --- has been, and remains, the largest anti-Semitic movement, supporting the death of Israel and Jews .

The Iron Guard flourished in Romania and similar groups flourished in Hungary, Austria and especially Poland well before 1933, the year of Hitler's triumph.

"Especially Poland"?! Yes, I know Poland the country which did not let Jews to settle there, which was the first to side with Nazi Germany in WWII and which build the Auschwitz.

I wonder if Mr. Beichman can point Poland on the map.
