06-25-07 - Palestine: Freedom Is What They Want The Palestinians don't deserve this. Their only sin was to be born in their own country, a country that was coveted by European Zionists and taken from them with the help of British colonialism. The fact that most American politicians prefer the indignity of acting like a crowd of timid foot-kissers for the Israeli lobby adds our own guilt to that of the Israelis. When a people are fighting for freedom versus an army - regardless of its size or might - that is fighting for empire, the people will eventually win in the end (just like Americans did). The drive for dignity, freedom, and their very lives is much stronger and it will prevail.

06-25-07 - United Church of Christ Chooses Fairness toward Israelis and Palestinians "In June 2006, the Presbyterian Church (USA) General Assembly set an example by replacing a 2004 resolution that threatened anti-Israel divestment with a balanced resolution that seeks the welfare of both Palestinians and Israelis. Now such evenhandedness appears to be providentially contagious. First the United Church of Canada (later in 2006) and now the United Church of Christ have made similar turns toward fairness in their approach to the Middle East." Why should there be 'evenhandedness' at all when one side holds all of the power in this equation? The playing field is not level, so let's stop pretending that it is. Hamas, PIJ, and all of the rest of those groups, even taken together, could never wipe Israel out.
