I am a supporter of Israel, but not the unjust policies of
Israeli government. The policies are dangerous to security (not defense) of Israel
and tarnish the character of Jewish nation. I have written over 25 pieces on the topic,

As peace makers, we should listen carefully. The biggest
mistake the hard liners among the right wing Muslims, Jews, Christians and
Hindus make is simple; they don’t listen.

They jump to conclusions and mess up the world. This is what
Ahmadinejad said in the same paper and they had the gall to mis-write the
heading, “Anyone who loves freedom and justice must strive for the
annihilation of the Zionist regime in order to pave the way for world justice
and freedom.”|

Criticizing Zionism is not criticizing Israel, Judaism or
Jews. It is downright stupid to call “annihilate
Israel” when it was “regime change”. I
do hope the prominent Jews condemn this non-sense.

Nearly half of Israel wants Netanyahu regime gone, it is not annihilation of
Israel or Jews, and it is the regime! The same dudes have the ability to distinguish
between Republican and Democrat regimes in America. The late Prime Minister Menachem Begin wanted
a regime change when Carter was the President, as Americans we did not look
that as Anti-American.
Not all Israelis are enamored with Netanyahu, there are
Jewish organizations against the regime, indeed, and there are Rabbis against
Zionism.

We should not spread falsities; it is not good for Israel,
Jews, Iranians, Americans, Palestinians or any one.
