Reply #228: These Threads Aren't Productive

Let's dispense with some canards.

Your garden variety Jewish person is not particularly religious but they are committed to Israel's continued existence while simultaneously favoring a two state solution; as are most Americans. You can argue by anecdote and cite this Jewish person or that Jewish person who opposes the existence a Jewish state but they are a small minority. Look at opinion polling.


That being said I can appreciate the heart fealt pain of some here who have felt the sting of anti-semitism and see a Jewish state as more than some "political construct."

But we are where we are.

I do think a peaceful resolution that trades land for peace (and) security is the best option.
