Better luck next time It did degenerate into quite a food fight there didn t it It s sad that there is this repeated conflict between pro left and pro Israel The whole enemy of my enemy thing gets really messed up when there is common cause between progressives and nazis A very sad state of affairs I suppose I have it easier I may disagree with many of the actions of the state of Israel with respect to Palestinian issues but as the grandson of a Nazi I don t feel I have the right to publicly criticise them It isn t quite holocaust guilt it s more a matter of if I accept the legacy of my grandfather then I accept some measure of responsibility for his actions Anyway it seems pointless to get into fights with people like Slim when there are so many more deserving people to get into fights with Anyway keep up the god work One thing though you might want to moderate what you say about private email conversations it sounds like you plan to be offesive and more importantly it just sounds too much like the tiff between Sam Spade and Felonious Monk BTW feel free to ignore everything I say I don t really have a clue about anything 14 41 6 Apr 2005 UTC
