The difference is one of citizens versus non-citizens who vociferously insist that the state be dismantled.
Citizens have rights which non-citizens do not.
If and when there is a Palestinian state, they will have rights in their state which Israelis, as foreigners, will not have. And which Sefardic Jews from all over the Middle-East have been robbed of - you do remember that the Sefardim were expelled, don’t you?

Erratum: comment above meant for posting one up. A normal blog has it’s posting option UNDERNEATH the relevant post.

I guess being printed in the J, JTA, and The Forward shows how truly “muzzled” you are. Congratulations on your oppression.

Oh, Dan, you’re just a little irked that they don’t like yr pro-Israel ideolgoical slagging at StandWithUs half as much as they like the independent thinking they’re reading in Muzzlewatch.
If you stopped yelling & screaming at yr “enemies” Jewish or Muslim, people might pay you more attention.

Folks- you missed a huge story
Your mission statement says you are devoted to:
Tracking efforts to stifle open debate about US-Israeli foreign policy.
Yet you wrote NOTHING about the debacle at UC Irvine last week when Daniel Pipes was prevented from speaking. Yes, its bad not to be invited. And its bad to be disinvited. But its so much worse to pay for a ticket and travel to hear a talk, only to have it disrupted by rude and undiscliplined students.
This is the worst form of “muzzling”- and it needs to be addressed.

I’m just getting a kick out of Richard insisting on the one hand that he and his friends are being “muzzled” and on the other, they are lapping up the media attention.

TW has an excellent point.
“Your mission statement says you are devoted to:
Tracking efforts to stifle open debate about US-Israeli foreign policy”
This does not only apply to any particular set of opinions!
Hurrah for Muzzlewatch!
How great it is that your are concerned for free speech on this issue, regardless of whether you agree with the speakers political opinions or not!

independent thinking
Could you please direct me to the post where this independent thinking is exhibited?
I ask, because I lack the time to slog through the usual fevered rhetoric.
Thank you.

This site seems articulate the same narrow minded thinking towards Israel that we are all constantly inundated with. In essence, this view dictates that the burden of peace, with any and all attendant responsibilites and obligations is placed on Israel while, at the same time, the Palestinians are condescendingly just not expected to behave in a responsible way and are thus relieved of all obligations towards peace.
The difference in this site as opposed to others, is that this site stand for the proposition that this strangely distorted view needs to have an equal place with more rational, balanced, factually based views!

Israel will never be secure as long as they flaunts international law. People who have no hope do become fanatics. I am close to 80 years old and have been a peace worker in the Middle East for 45 years, You can refuse to be even handed. But the majority of the world knows the U.S. funds the brutal occupation of the Palistinians. I pray that the Jewish Lobby will not push congress and Isreal to the point of no return.

I would be curious as to Bridget’s thoughts as to what”International Law” Israel is flaunting. Typically ,people confuse non-binding UN resolutions with “International Law.” as if the UN were a world government. Often what peol e”know” about “internaional law” is simply wrong.
Similarly, I am curious as to why Bridget thinks that it is “people without hope that become fantics”, when Moslem Arab fantatism seems more fueled by Jeiwsh appeasment and the prospect of victory. When Israel has demonstrated good faith i.e. withdrawl from Lebanon, the Moslem Arabs interpret this as weakness and go on a violent offensive. The Oslo accords, which should have produced “hope” in reality lead to the taking of 1600 Jewish lives by Arab fanatics. Ending the occupation of Gaza lead to rockets, not peace. Perhaps Bridget should re-think things.
