I haven't witnessed the anti-Jewish bigotry on this forum that you mention-I'm not calling you a liar, just that I personally haven't seen it.
My POV as a liberal-libertarian is that the Zionist state-under the control of the Sharonites-are bloody murderers. Both sides of the Israeli/Arab conflict have blood on their hands, but in the arena of human rights, Israel has not been a shining example of it.
You do realize that the Sharon Zionists have allied themselves with the same people who used to call up blowhards like Limbaugh and whine about how the Holocaust "...never happened." Strange that the neo-con BFEE has changed their tune since Sharon has taken power. Either the Israelis are too fucking stupid to know this, or they are shameless for using nazi atrocities like a baseball bat to beat who they deem as "Anit-Semites" when someone calls them on their bullshit. It is a lot like
this horseshit statement Rice made RE: U.S. policy in the Middle-East.
Zionism rejects the teachings of Judaism, including the Divinely-ordained Decree of Exile from the Holy Land some 2,000 years ago and the prohibition of creating a Jewish State, according to which Jews are instructed to live among other peoples in peace, friendship and harmony. Any violation of this decree, such as the establishment of a Zionist state, is a grave sin, and as history has proven, provides no lasting benefit for any Jews whatsoever, and in fact has been a relentless assault on everything Judaism holds dear and on their very existence physically and spiritually.Neturei Karta International statementThe last person who wanted peace in Israel was Benjamin Netenyahu (sp?). Look what happened to him. This isin't Golda's Israel were talking about. An Arab may have shot him, but that and America's 9-11 outrage seems to be just the incidents that Zionists like Sharon needed to activate the agenda to wipe-out Palestinians-by any means neccesary.
When I say "Zionist" I'm not talking about Jewish people who, like you said, "...are overwhelmingly Liberal and Democratic."
Dave Berkman is a good example of an anti-Zioinst Jew who approaches the subject occasionally and guess what: those right wingers I mentioned send hate-letters to him, claiming that he must be a "...Jew-hater" "liberal", "Faggot" and a "...terrorist sympathizer", etc. etc.
