I am not of the Jewish faith, however I've been rooting for Israel all these years. I believe there will eventually be peace in the Middle East, peace in the Holy Land - but maybe not in our lifetimes.
I'm a little taken aback by all the pro-Palestinian venting going on here on DU. To me it doesn't seem like a position that so-called "liberals" would take. Hamas was never looking for a peaceful solution of any kind. Not all Palestinians support Hamas, not by any means. But enough of them do, and those who do support Hamas are rooting for terrorists.
Since when do American liberals of DU or any other platform support terrorism? I'm stumped. I don't get it. This sudden wave of anti-Israel/pro-Palestine eruption that keeps popping up here ... well, I can't figure out where it's coming from. Some liberals are getting their heads twisted around to the point where they're spouting almost right-wing talking points.
I want to believe that DUers are all on the same page, but when I see this pro-Palestinian garbage on DU I don't know what to think. Maybe it's a weird form of anti-Semitism, or maybe something else is going on?
