63. I think a lot of people are intimidated by the bullying when it comes to this topic.

So you deserve credit for removing the veil of fear and 'going there'. If the shoe fits, too bad if some try to claim it doesn't. Facts are facts and Israel should get no more special treatment on these Dem forums than any other sovereign nation. I don't get it, when they are wrong they are wrong and we will say so, if not here, we will simply say it somewhere else.

The world's news papers are now filled with commenters horrified by the Israeli Govt's slaughter of the Palestinian children, even more angry at those trying to justify it somehow. Some may have lost their ability to feel empathy even for innocent little children but thankfully it appears MOST human beings around the world, have not.
