The Jews live all over the world. Why should they, or even the common citizen in Jerusalem, be condemned for something the government in Israel does? Would *you* like to be judged according to what Gordon Brown decides?
Because they all chose to move to Israel and occupy Palestinian land, at least as far as the Israelis are concerned (well over 90% in Israel support the war in Gaza btw). As for Brown, I have campaigned for him politically, so obviously yes. Brown is a very good man stuck in a bad political system.
If any Jew wants to protest the situation in Palestine, I imagine that they would be regarded with a lot more respect.
All of them? As far as I know, there are Jews spread all over the world.
Yes - and unless anyone kicks up an uber fuss about it - then noone is really going to notice.
You still want to hold them personally responsible because politicians in Israel act like morons? That's very open-minded of you.
As for Brown, good for you, but would you want to assume some sort of responsibility for any bad decision he might make? Would you want to be persecuted because of something he did?
Want to, no. But I have to deal with it if it happens. Why should Jewish people be granted a special exemption from that system?
They are not. But according to your logic, *you* should be take the blame for what Bush did. After all, you're both male and white.
Did you actually look for the protests by Jews against what happened in Gaza? A quick Google reveals this, to offer but one example.
The protests are very limited compared to those who support the war. (btw I am actually involved in the protests against the war - so actually have a realistic idea as to what is going on)
Sorry, I don't believe this at all. Are you actually out there, protesting, writing to the politicians, getting involved? I find it very hard to believe, coming from a kid that doesn't want to be visible when it comes to defend his own group, the spazzes.
You should probably do another Google search, or at least find some other dorm window to check the world through.
