This piece is damning towards the current Jewish lobby that they are seeking to supplant. |

As it currently stands, Hezbollah is leading the way to a Lebanese civil war. Iraq continues in instability. Iran continues it's verbal threats against Israel, the other day Admadinejad called it a 'stinking corpse' that is destined to dissappear. A peaceful Israel will soon be a non-existent Israel.

If these terrorist organizations keep pushing, we may see another 6 day war kind of reaction. Israel only take so much before it gets pissed and goes off.

While the treatment of Palestinians is a great excuse to hate Israel, antipathy towards Israel will exist as long as they're occupying Jerusalem.

I don't really feel bad for the Israelis. They have trampled on the Palestinians and made little serious effort for peace. As near as I figure, they like their settlements better than they like peace. |

(not directed specifically at Leb) I'm actually a little surprised to find the mild anti-Israel sentiment here. I shouldn't be. As a community, CG is my Bizarro world.

See, this is what J-street is all about. They are trying to make it ok to say "We want Jewish peace, we want the settlements gone, AND we are not anti-Israel or anti-semitic." Pro-Peace is Pro-Israel. |

And FWIW, I just spent the last week with a close friend of mind who is an Israeli citizen who lives near Tel Aviv. Don't give me your condescending "Bizarro world" bullshit, Tex.
