37. You wrote about the Haredi in exactly the same way that "Redneck" Americans write about immigrants
or anybody with a different color skin.

I don't hate "Israelis". I hate hawkishness and the defense of militarist rigidity. And I hate the repeated implication that I "hate" a group of people unless I defend them in making the worst possible response to a situation. There's a difference between that and "not liking" Israelis.

What was done here was NEVER the only choice. Stop chanting "ein breira" to yourself in the mirror every morning.
