I'm all for Israel doing whatever it takes to ensure her security. I wasn't clear that my comments on the Czechs were not meant to draw any parallels, just that no one should think they are great friends of Jews or anyone else for that matter. Czechs despise people I never heard of (Chods for instance) until I lived in the Republic.

Gotcha. Filed away for my own personal reference.

Thanks for the review, I always appreciate personal anecdotes from fellow-travellers.
(It's one of the ways I learn about places to which I have not travelled myself).

Best,
