42. Pure sophistry...
Sorry but I have been reading your posts for DAYS now, Shira, and they have the patina of logic to them. That is, they may look sensible at the outset, but when you get them under the light and really examine them closely the seams start to show.

There is a little something called Cultural Relativism (maybe you've heard of it) which has been PROVEN -- carefully -- through syllogisms devised by various professors at numerous universities around the world -- to be the only sane worldview for conflicts such as these (Arab/"Israeli")... and according to the dictates of Cultural Relativism we can -- indeed, MUST -- hold "Israel" to a higher set of standards than its neighbors.
