Did you forget it, or are you seriously in favor of genocide? >The most bigoted regressive segment of the population composes the >so-called peace movement in Israel. Hundred's of innocent women and children were massacred at the Palestinian settlement in Beirut. Add to that the other thousands slaughtered by Israeli and Lebanese militias and it is no wonder that some Isreali citizens are demonstrating for the fair treatment of the Islamic population of the Middle East. Actually, the most bigotted and regressive segment of the population are the ex-terrorists in the Israeli government who continue to pursue the dangerous expansionistic policies of Zionism. >I have no objection to making peace with the Muslims but first Muslims >somewhere must show some tiny shred of evidence of willingness to live >on terms of mutal respect and equality with non-Muslims, and Muslim >political and religious leaders must concede that Muslims owe >non-Muslims for centuries of mistreatment. Need I mention Sadat, who was brutally assasinated for showing "some tiny shred of evidence of willingness to live on terms of mutual respect and equality with non-Muslims"? Actually, he showed a great deal of tolerance when he negotiated with Begin. Actually it is the Christians who have most brutalized the Jewish race. This, of course, is a generalization. Not all Christians are anti-semitic. Not all followers of Islam are anti-semitic. Not all Jews are anti-islamic. The Israelis have the responsibility of returning the Golan Heights to the Syrians, the West Bank to the Palestinians, and the Gaza Strip to the Egyptians. In the interim, while all this is negotiated, the Israelis if they want to be called democratic, must address the issue of human rights for the Palestinians residing in the occupied territories. The leaders of the Islamic nations surrounding Isreal have the responsibility of recognizing the nation of Israel and working to achieve peace in the region. So, who goes first? Someone has to start. Now that Shimon Peres is Prime Minister, there is a good chance that we may see peace in our time. Already he has made overtures to King Hussein of Jordan. Let us all pray to Jehovah/God/Allah so that all people can flourish on this earth in peace and harmony. Jeff Fields -- Pax Vobiscum.
