Hello Jim, Thank you. You have given me a lot to think about. I really appreciate your comments and the thoughtful arguments you present. I realise I was being rather naive and deserve to be taken to task.
The fact that we are caught up in a web of propaganda is all the more reason to be vigilant and coherent. I take all your arguments on board - the fact that we quibble about the "finer feelings" of Jewish communities -when the existential question is the survival of the Palestinian people on this day of the 77th anniversary of the Nakba.
My intention was never " a nonsensical defense of atrocity". Far from it, when our hearts and minds (for what it's worth) are with the suffering of the Palestinian people. And our righteous anger is with the Israeli regime and their backers and enablers, the US/West.
