everyone I know who has been to South America has said the same types of things about Israelis. What would you be like fresh out of compulsory military service in a country flooded with those ideals?
I only met one in Australia and he was pretty cool. *cue the angry Israelis and others... |

"its a great adrenilane rush" he said. all of his buddies and a pack of girls agreed with enthusiasm. and god help you if you say something like "well why cant you live together and share the land?...their religion started there as well."....i have never seen such fury and hatred when i asked that. i could go on and on and on Last edited by Revolver; Jul 22, 06 at 07:18 PM. |

And the fact that it's a religious matter makes me sick. |

It's such a political mess. Funny enough its probly at fault of the UN. They really have to figure out something thats fair for both ppl's or else this problem is only going to get bigger and bigger.
In a way I can see the point of view from both ppl. I also wouldnt be surprised if the Israli government educates their ppl the way the US does by making them over patriotic. The way you discribe the Isralies you met during yoru travels sounds allot like the Americans I met in Australia. However there still are a few open minded ones. One american admited that their told non stop that their the best country in the world, their tot that their the greatest, their tot that you always have to be the best etc... Im sure its probly allot alike in Isreal. Last edited by Ree Fresh; Jul 22, 06 at 08:14 PM. |

'Patriotism and it's less attractive cousin Nationalism' are the modern pillage of humanity. Everyone is backed by varying doctrines, ideals, labels and faiths.
Saying that, i did meet an israeli and a jewish guy from LA and the ends of the spectrum at which they sat were incredible. I could describe it but not here. |

I made a comment about agreeing with the president of Irans sentiment about the Israeli governmental apparatus being wiped of the planet. (What he really said was "erased from time") But I find it trully hypocritcal that some on this board could critisize Israeli nationalism but be ok with Canadian Nationalism? Citizens in this country have and are being manipulated by the government against Indigenous peoples just as people in Israel are being manipulated against Palestinian peoples. |
