Assuming that everything you said is true, and it could very well be, why do you feel it denies anyone the right to criticize them when they behave badly? You assume that the only reason anyone could have any complaints or criticisms of Israel is because they hate Israel. If you follow those lines, that automatically makes anyone who criticizes or complains about any Arab action an Arab hater. How would you like being called that whenever you have anything negative to say about an Arab country? Can't you see that trying to draw the lines in that way is insulting and hateful? Mr. Beck is far from the worst offender, but I've seen such arguments reduce what could have been an actual discussion into a shouting match much too often. -- Matt _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
