Even as a boy, when we used to celebrate Passover, I wondered what kind of people would celebrate a holiday that commemerated genocide, the death of every firstborn male Egyptian, and what kind of religion would celebrate such a bloodthirsty God.

The Palestinians have just learned from the Irgun which blew up the King David Hotel, killing almost a hundred people. The crime in all of this is realizing that there is no where to go. How can this possibly end except by turning all Palestinians into terrorists or all Israelis into Nazis?

There's moral equivalence for you, "all Israelis into Nazis." It can end lots of different ways. It can end if all Israelis surrender and leave. It can end if Israel drives all the Arabs out of Israel. It can end if the Palestinians get leaders who want to end the war. It can end if the United States puts Arafat on the terror list and attacks him along with all the rest of the terrorists when we go into the region...is that good for a start?

Two comments:

1. I thought Passover celebrated the survival of the Israelites (and their freedom), not the destruction of the Eqyptians.

2. Eventually, everyone dies -- does that make God "bloodthirsty"?

The Palestinians have just learned from the Irgun which blew up the King David Hotel, killing almost a hundred people.

Oh, it's OK then -- the Irgun did it first.

It could end by the Palestinians deciding to live in peace with their neighbors.
