I have taken issue.
I think it is important to laugh and also important to remember.
This compo had taken a turn for the 'laugh at the poor Palestinians, fuck 'em' and I think it needed mentioning.

Fair enough.
As is often the case I suppose the line is between concept and
individual real event. One death is a tragedy and all that.

I haven't seen a
shift toward the 'laugh at Palestinians', and from what you are saying I take it you are anti-Zionist or are you more anti-Semitic?

Neither.
That said, in this particular conflict I feel that Israel is the guiltier party.

Actually, I am a little pissed off that you feel that it is okay for you to accuse me of racism
simply because I did not want a UN aid worker to be needlessly killed.

Perhaps you need to re-read your own post?
"I take it you are anti-Zionist or are you more anti-Semitic?"

surely
you can be anti-Zionist without being anti-semitic.
The 'more' wasn't to suggests you were partially anti-semitic.
accept my apologies, I honestly didn't mean to offend you.

I am not particularly anti-Zionist either.
I mean, I think that it was wrong for the Cypriot Jews to move so in such a wholesale fashion into Palestine and I do not think that stealing land and giving it to others is good, but I also do not believe that the current situation should reflect the past. The situation exists that both Israel and Palestine have to co-exist in that part of the world.
What I am opposed to is the fashion in which Israel is behaving, the slaughter and lack of respect they show, the random acts of violence and the constant extending of walls.
I also hate the fact that it is treated as acceptable so often.
It is time that Israel was stopped from making proactive war.
