re: #282 Killgore Trout

I can understand being upset about unfair reporting. That’s one of the reasons I want to learn more about the whole thing from both sides. I want to know how the concept of Zionism and the religion of Judaism fits with how the modern state of Israel conducts itself since the these things all seem to be intimately tied together (according to my current understanding).

I have to admit that it also pains me to hear Palestinians spoken of almost as if they’re animals. I don’t have an issue with terrorists being being called such as that’s how they behave (even worse, in fact), and I get just as disgusted and furious as any of you when I see some Palestinians celebrating the deaths of innocent people, but to be honest the level of vitriol I see here against pretty much ALL Palestinians bothers me and thus keeps me from participating. I realize many may disagree and/or dislike what I’m saying, but I’d rather be honest about how I feel than hope that people like me for for saying what I think they’d prefer to hear.
