There is *NOTHING* wrong with criticizing Israel. In fact, my best friend is a liberal who disagrees with Israeli policy with regard to dealing with the whole palestinian issue. He is not an antisemite or a Jew hater. When people get labeled an antisemite here it is usualy for spreading lies and untruths and having done so repeatedly on the given thread and others.
We Pro-Israelis have good memories and if we spot someone that will refuse to condemn palestinian suicide bombers in one thread, makes lies about the history of the conflict in another, and then in yet another quote material from stormfront we take note. If that same person says something very questionable in another thread, we might confront him on why he/she feels the way they do (with the implication that it's anti-Jewish in nature). And, I personaly take issue with being called an Israel firster. This implies that I do not love my country, or that I am more loyal to Israel than the US. That is simply NOT true. I am an American first, a Jew second, and not even an Israeli at all. On the other hand, the political issue that I care more about than anything else happens to be the conflict in the middle east. I am speaking here only for myself and no one else. However, I suspect that many others feel the same way. Hopefully this statement clears some things up. Have a nice rest of the day Demidog-
