Preechr, I agree with most of your response, but the contention is that Carter not only labels the Palestinian case “the worst” but that he claims it’s some hush hush issue when we know it recieves far more scrutiny in the media, and at the UN then any other attrocity today. I think we agree on that one.
Zionism, especially political Zionism, doesn’t have three requirements, just one - a Jewish homeland. The rest would all depend on which particular Zionist you were speaking to. As it’s not a theocracy, there is no such thing as an “Israeli Religion”, and since you can be a multitude of religions as an Israeli, Carter is incorrect. It’s not just a matter of poor terminology. He’s talking about the modern population of Israel, not the Israelites mentioned in the Bible. His book also claims that Israel has targeted it’s Christian population, which we know is false.
“It's almost inconceivable for any members of the House and Senate to take any position that would be critical of Israel. “
So has any member in the House or Senate ever taken a position critical of Israel? The question can be answered yes or no. Why can't Carter conceive of this?
