G, Jewish people are stunned to hear this. well, they shouldn't be. there are many, many Jews around the world who question Israel's existence, if not their policies towards the Palestinians.

BTW, they are people like Uri Avnery, who is an Israeli Jew, yet seeks the interest of both Palestinians and Israeli Jews in ways we couldn't possibly fathom. he operates an organization called Gosh Shalom or Peace Block in Israel. if you do not know this man, then sadly you do not the current events in Israel.
