Apart from the realm of opinions which is separate from facts and therefore everybody is entitled to their own, you're wrong about more than 80% of what you claim are the facts of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Yes, Rachel Corrie, Sabra & Shatila and Deir Yassin are all lies.

Your post is an astounding mosaic of historical facts, lies, personal opinions (at time masquerading as fact), delusions, moral equivalence and apology for terror against innocents.

Becky Johnson is correct on each assertion she's made about Palestinian society which you're contesting and not even willing to examine critically. I've seen and heard ample proof for the veracity of these claims over the last decade also on the Israeli media. You see, I've been in Israel decades, you haven't. I can honestly corroborate Becky Johnson's correct claims about Palestinians and the PA whereas you can't credibly refute them. You're in acute denial and by that I don't mean the river in Egypt.

To his credit, I must say John Thielking has been willing to be open the possibility he didn't know it all and that he might be wrong about certain conceptions he had had. You, conversely, are too steeped in your anti-Israel dogma to recognize, let alone admit, your misconceptions and repudiate the lies you repeat.
