The other side has a point of view that's been squished for too long in this country. There was a time when Israel had my sympathy, but over the years I've noticed time and time again how disproportionately (that is the operative word) pro-Israel passions are represented in our media and politics, and that really turned me off. It's too much, it's out of control, and Israel needs - as Colin Powell put it - to be reigned in. This war, and Israel's rabid supporters in the US who were part and parcel of launching it, is one of the greatest errors this country has ever made, and now it's going to be Hell to pay to get past it. A major part of our getting past it is in coming to terms with those forces in our media and gov't. The neocon ringleaders - including the greedy, selfish bastards in the MI complex and Big Oil - need to be put on trial for war crimes, AIPAC needs to be stood up to, Big Media needs to be busted up, and we've got to rescue our democracy from the clutches of Big Money. I sympathize with the many peace-loving people in Israel, they are among the many victims of the belligerent, arrogant protagonists who have led them into this morass. I hope to see them rise up and replace their rulers with leaders who will do what it takes to make peace with their neighbors. And they need to do this urgently, because the forces against them are building towards a climax that none of us wants to see.
