FinnBow:
What I got exiled for was a comment about how a flight of F16s leveling a village in the Heights might not be an entirely proper response to a couple crazed Palis with a mortar and bad aim. Guess I also stuck my foot in it when I asked some of the dittohead zealots when was the last time they got to VOTE in an Israeli election. That -- pissed them off for sure.

Israel's Zionist "ambitions" might have been a threat BEFORE Israel was established in '48. But today the sum total of the Zionist "ambition" is to survive as an advanced country and refuge from persecution and hold Jerusalem. I'd say that is a pretty small "threat" to ANYONE in America or outside the Muslim sphere. So even the phrase "Zionist ambition" is one of those super-charged lightning bolts that stokes the fire. As if the solution to TODAY'S Zionist ambition is to sweep Israel into the sea. Or at least celebrate their demise in some fashion.
If I didn't get the Zionist agenda memo and I'm missing something important --- Please FinnBow -- let me know...
BTW: I'm all for honest representation of the Pali cause. Like any other "occupation" -- I'm against it...
None of that leftist "grey area" here -- as if there were GOOD occupations and BAD occupations. You win, you occupy, you get out or absorb the refugees with full rights.
