Becky, not all the "left" thinks that Israel can't exist. I for one, as a Jew, want Israel to exist. I also want Palestine to exist. It's called coexistence! Wow, what a concept!

What many are against are NOT Jews or Judeasm or Israel. It is the continuous illegal occupation, the disregard for (U.S. vetoed) U.N. resolutions against Israel's POLICIES in the West Bank, and the humiliation and systematic destruction of Palestian Statehood.

To me it is about a two state solution. That is the only option. The plight of the Palestineans is no different from the plight of the Iraqi people. It is becomming evident. No doubt, Mossad has worked closely with U.S. Military and trained them in the ways of occupation. They do, after all, have allot of experience in surpressing and destroying a people.

When Palestinians are having check points in Israel, building a wall around Israel, demolishing their homes with bulldozers, and OCCUPYING ISRAEL, then we can say there is a level playing field.

This in NO WAY accepts the suicide bombers as ok. It's not ok, but it certainly is as understandable as the Freedom Fighters in Iraq.

It is up to ISRAEL to stop the chain of violence.

And by the way, it's just a cooincidence that there is always an attack on Israel just when it conveniently undermines any positive motions by Israel. Yeah sure. The Mossad has a long history of false flag operations.

Like the one where Mossad agents were in Palestine posing as Al CiaDuh and trying to recruit Palestinians.
