Israel's Jewish Defamers

Submitted by David, Nov 25, 2007 17:51

As I see it, Zionists and anti-Semites are opposite sides of the same racist coin. Both fervently believe that Jews should not live among non-Jews. Fortunately for all concerned, as made evident by events in the past decade or so (e.g. massive emigration of Israeli Jews, immigration to Israel virtually non-existent, and the beginning of a shift in US geopolitical direction based on self-interest), Zionism is in decline. Inevitably, Israel will suffer the fate of all colonialist enterprises and in the end, the world, Palestinians, Arabs in general, and indeed, Jews everywhere, will finally be free of its curse. Alfred Lilienthal was right 55 years ago and Tony Judt et al. are right today. Like it or not, there will be one state.
