Who attacked whom ?? And who has tried since the start of the state of Israel tried to destroy it. And who will never acknowladge it's right to exist ?

Those *people* have never, and never will accept the state of Israel, yet Israel would very much welcome getting along with it's neighbors.

How come you dont hold the palistinians to the same standard ? What about the corruption, and the money Arafat stole, along with his cronies ? Or is the same as the oil for food program, where as long as it's people YOU like stealing the $$$ it's OK ?? Or Arafats constant refusal to acknowladge the state of Israel's right to exist, and schools in the palistinan lands teaching this constant hatred ?

I for one do NOT like the Israeli's heavy handed tactics, but how can I fault them when they have terrorists blowing up civillians on a constant basis ? They didnt start this !

Suppose Isreal did leave ALL occupied lands, would you support them THEN ?

All I can tell you is that our church (Cathloic) has given lots of $$$ to people in the Balkans, and the ME before, all by simple private citizens like me. They dont teach hate here, only acceptance, and love for fellow man.

It's not the religion, but the people MIS practicing it. Tho sadly, I do have my doubts about the Koran.

I also notice that you arnt necessarly practicing tolerance here either......

Wow, another instant plonk for use of the term "neocon" as a slur for anyone who's views differ from your own.

It's amazing how many people use the term with no faint twinkling of an idea what it really means, but they see the other socialists use it so it must be a good insult.

What point is there to argue? My workdays are like a salmon in spawning season, swimming upstream in a river of idiocy. Kim M

Reparations for the Crusades? (G). I am relieved to know the Cathloic Church doesn't practice religious hatred. I guess the turmoil in Northern Ireland, the various Serbo-Croatian wars, the current Orthodox/Catholic turmoil in the Ukraine, and the Catholic church telling its parishoners in the US that if they don't vote their homophobic (?!) anti-science line, they will go to hell. I guess I was misinformed. Kim M

Something you can't argue at all since you misread the original and failed to grasp its intent:

the first poster meant- anti-semitism was NOT DONE AWAY WITH IN EUROPE AND STILL FESTERS THERE. It was quite simple thing to figure out, well at least without a predisposition to misread the comment.

NOW is it clear, or is your personal bias still blinding you?

Well thats a start. Thank You.

Now what would YOU do about the palistinians and their specific targeting of civillians ? Because if Israel ever does pull out you and I both know they will not stop with their attacks.............

No TRUE church practices hatred. Reason I like our parish sooo much. Everyone welcome, no bias towards anyone !

The way it should be !!

Any religion that can't be summed up in two paragraphs or practiced out of one's home is guaranteed to end up in absolutism and corruption.

Book of Margosein, chapter 1, verse 72.

...a lot of the problem is that they ALL claim to be the "true" church.

I am European - and am not anti-semitic or anti-anyone based soley upon their nationality or religeon.

So that seems to have deflated your statement a little. Out of interest, are you a European? Methinks not!

...Assiduus usus uni rei deditus et ingenium et artem saepe vincit... (Cicero)

The original poster never stated that any particular European is anti-Semitic, only that anti-Semitism never died in Europe.

It's like saying that racism still exists in the US. Of course it is, but not all Americans are racist.
