Thank you for your i...Dear Black Israel Supporter,<br /><br />Thank you for your input and opinion. All such comparisons are subject to critique, because each situation has its unique contours.<br /><br />But your point of view lacks depth and understanding. You caricature the Palestinian side as bloodthirsty maniacs and sanctify Israel. Neither is accurate. Each side has its monsters, each has its victims. To pretend otherwise is to fall victim to your own ideology. <br /><br />It's fine to disagree with Anna Baltzer's point of view; but don't let yourself off the hook by reaffirming a brittle and paranoid point of view. Charles Simic once wrote that poets must be aware that at some point, their tribe will ask them to justify murder. Our job is to never succumb to that seduction.Philip Metreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449159681282927289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910291709965283166.post-53713510692374197192010-08-15T00:32:50.160-04:002010-08-15T00:32:50.160-04:00Anna, I must confess, as a black man, I am deeply ...Anna, I must confess, as a black man, I am deeply offended by your comparison between Palestinians and black Americans in the United States. <br /><br />The situations are and were in no way comparable. At no point did mainstream black civil rights leaders, such as Martin Luther King Jr. promote violence against White people. The whole goal of the civil rights movement was for blacks to have equality within the United States, not to destroy the USA or harm innocent people. <br /><br />The goal of the mainstream Palestinian leadership is and has always been the extermination of the Jewish race, not only in Israel but around the world. They say this very clearly and repeatedly. You just don't want to listen.<br /><br />Israel and the Jewish people are a model of human rights in their treatment towards the Palestinians. Considering their three wars of where they tried to exterminate Jews, plus the fact that Palestinian leaders were responsible for the deaths of 500,000 Jews, if this stuff was done to any other group, they would have committed massive attrocities against the Palestinians and expelled all members of this group. Israel hasn't done this and this is a sign of their humanity.Black Israel Supporterhttp://blackconservativethoughts.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910291709965283166.post-89162290447350561282010-01-05T20:10:17.494-05:002010-01-05T20:10:17.494-05:00Anna Baltzer is what she is: a liberal, nominally ...Anna Baltzer is what she is: a liberal, nominally "anti-zionist" Jewess. She wants the Zionists to "be nice" to the Palestinians who, for their part, want their land back. All of it. This won't happen so long as the Zionist demi-state continues to exist. When Ms. Baltzer understands this and takes a stand against the fake-state of Israel itself, then we can all start to take her seriously.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910291709965283166.post-77635917587381464892009-10-30T10:18:19.000-04:002009-10-30T10:18:19.000-04:00I can hear the Falsetinian ProPALganda Shiite that...I can hear the Falsetinian ProPALganda Shiite that Anna Baltzer, the Marxist Leninist, spreading all over. If you notice the pictures she show in the frame is quite ignoring the whole spectrum needed to understand the security problems that the Arabs create by their terror activity. When I say 'picture' I refer to the very picture in the locations as well as the wider meaning of the political and security picture which she avoiding to attend. Israel raised the check posts AFTER the Arabs re-started their wide terror attacks and NOT BEFORE!Abe Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15744009755391614552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910291709965283166.post-10184805489542021662008-05-08T09:09:00.000-04:002008-05-08T09:09:00.000-04:00Funny, when I met her I didn't see any strings att...Funny, when I met her I didn't see any strings attached. The quotation marks around "Palestinian" gives away your point of view too easily; you don't believe there is a Palestinian people. Incredible. Time to go back to the history books.Philip Metreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05449159681282927289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5910291709965283166.post-90446284983586363512008-05-08T03:54:00.000-04:002008-05-08T03:54:00.000-04:00ANNA IS A FRAUD.
