Israel has dragged Judaism's reputation through the mud

Israel’s apologist Isaac Stone is such a cry-baby. I didn’t read one word of complaint from him when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed the Nazi Holocaust on the Palestinians. Yet he goes into a tirade against me when I noted that Israel has engaged in Nazi-like policies. For example, when Ariel Sharon was defence minister, he sent the Lebanese Christian militia into two Palestinian refugee camps, where they slaughtered an estimated 2,700 people. The Israeli soldiers knew what was happening, yet blocked the exits to make sure not a single man, woman or child could escape. For these atrocities, the Israelis rewarded Sharon by electing him prime minister in the greatest landslide in the country’s history.

I believe that some (not all) Israelis would go along with exterminating all Palestinians if they thought America would let them get away with it. Far from being a self-hating Jew, I am a proud Jew who is disgusted by the way Israel has dragged the good name of my religion through the mud.
