Morton A Klein (pres. Zionist Organization of America) & Norman Finkelstein (professor, author) debate the US/Israel relationship, how healthy it is, its global political impact on the United States, nuclear proliferation in Iran and the Middle East Peace process.

And no, I have no idea why Morton Klein does that. No idea.

1. Tourette's syndrome?

I guess Morton A. Klein has Tourette's syndrome, or something like that. So we shouldn't hold it against him.

So here is this white guy, Morton A. Klein, who thinks people like him deserve to take the homeland of some brown people, where they have lived for thousands of years. Since the brown people give the whites trouble, the white people are so victimized. Of course Mr. Klein ignores the numerous wars Israel has started and the terrible oppression the whites are committing again the Palestinians. What I am writing is all old stuff people have read a million times before.

It's amazing that some folks still side with Mr. Klein. And I wonder if Mr. Klein actually believes his own lies.

2. The only lies are within your own post

In fact Gaza (part of the occupied territories) only had approximately 60,000 residents in 1948.

Now with some 1.5 MILLION residents today how can we blame the nasty Israelis for the exponential growth of the largely Palestinian population there?

Answer: No we can't. Traditional liberalism never sees this. Did these "Zionist oppressors" insist that the Palestinian people breed themselves into poverty and starvation?

The fact is that the Palestinian people have consistently and predictably been their own worst enemies. Insuring a future of squalor, poverty and war.

Sadly the best solution is to give Israel a completely free hand in the occupied territories. And the sooner the better. Once this policy is clearly understood the Palestinian people will support peace. I guarantee it. History has shown that they only enter into serious negotiations when they visualize severe losses ahead. So? Oblige them with more losses. In fact this always works. Sure it's ugly but is the only proven method of negotiation.

Until then? It's all more of the same and in the end Israel still wins.

Even the flotilla incident has blown over (as I accurately predicted it would). Democrats need to dump their anti Israel dialogue soon or expect severe political losses at home.

You think Jewish campaign resources are gonna go to supporters of Hamas?
