Reply #6: Josh Marshall has a really good post, which better describes my [View All]

feelings, than my previous post:

He's talking about the "two conversations" -- one in reaction to the MSM and just what's happening over there (for which Josh is critical of Israel, as well as the * administration) and then there's the underground ugly conversation by lefties, quite frankly, who are virulently anti-Israel (for which Josh immediately rallies around his belief in Zionism -- the Israel state).

It makes one feel schizophrenic to both declare allegiance with Israel while being critical of their conduct of the war, but that's the best way to describe my feelings.

I will not be venturing into DU Main anytime soon -- to me they are just as bad as the Right in their blind hatred. It is just so disheartening to see in such a public way "The Longest Hatred" continuing -- from the Christianist Right, Mel Gibson's tirade and at the very same time an outbreak of anti-semitism from the Left (which was always there I may add). It's wrong and it must be condemned!
