Its amazing how things jump from discussing whether or not there are 3000 (or 4000) unrecorded incidents of terrorism in Israel (which I will take your word for, though I have no way of verifying it, and personally think it seems high) to wild accusations of being a fervent sympathizer of the drive of Arab governments and people to kill all Jews.

Where the hell did that come from?

My view, just so you are clear.

I am in favor of a crusade to wipe out Islam and all its governments from the earth. I agree with St. Bernard that killing a Muslim in a crusade is a Sacramental and a holy duty to God. I despise every single one of the Muslim governments. The only people living among the Muslims that I like are the Christian Arabs (Copts, Maronites, Assyrians, etc.).

However, I don't hate the Arabs (and Turks and Persians), I just don't like their majority religion. I'd love us to drop a bunker buster on the big black rock in Mecca, or see the Ultra-Orthodox blow up the Dome of the Rock. Elijah would not have hesitated.

But I also don't carry water for the Jews, inlcuding the Jews in Israel, even though they are in a mutual anatagonism towards the Muslim Arabs. I am and remain a Catholic, so the Jews will never be my allies in turning the world to the way I think it should be, unless they convert. Same as goes for the Arabs and Turks and Persians.

You apparently operate under the misapprehension that one must pick a side - pro Israel or pro Muslim. This misses the possibility that some of us might be against both groups and only pro Christian.

Actualy it was documented by the Israeli Government. I forgot the figures exactly, but if I run across the report again I will forward it to you.

You and I have an excuse to not be exact, the State Department does not. They have Israel's figures on tap. They CHOSE to not include it.
