It's tough, Robjna, but you're right. I was once a no-holds barred Israeli supported. Until I lived in Jerusalem for 3 years and saw the situation for what it really is. I still ardently support Israel's right to exist, but the fact is that the Palestinians have suffered to an extent that the vast majority of Americans would never tolerate if they really were exposed to both sides of the story.

What scares me is -- IMHO and after doing a ton of studying -- sometimes it really does look like Congress puts Israel's interest before the interests of Americans. Two weeks ago, Ha'aretz wrote that Israel deposited $1 million in a bank account for Jonathan Pollard. Also, there seems to be little question that Israel sold our technology to the Chinese, which we nicely asked them not to do (not to mention our laws which prohibit it). For a good, well-balanced view, read Thomas Friedman's "From Beruit to Jerusalem."

That is just what he needs, more Muslim apologist and Muslim/Arabprop propaganda.

If they are mainstream sources, please post them here for everyone to see. No need to be secretive about them unless they are from hate sites, in which case they are probably not welcomed by the management (or decent people in general).
