yeah I really agree with you, the way I expressed the sentiment was very poor and I basically did what I was telling fuzzy not to do. One of my good buddies had a friend who had just been killed in Gaza when I met him. When he was a little kid he lived down the street from a nightclub (I think) that was bombed in Tel Aviv. I don't pretend to have even the remotest idea of what that feels like. I love Israel really deeply in many ways and it's a source of great internal conflict for me. When you go somewhere, that place and those people become real to you in a way that they can never be by reading about them or watching stuff on tv. It's very hard for me to explain my feelings on Israel to people because the issue is so polarized and everyone wants to spout off without trying to understand. My heart hurts for the violence.

anyway I'm just rambling now, I agree with everything you said
