I have studied the history intensely though I have no connection with Israel, am not Jewish and unfortunately have (as far as I know) no Jewish friends.

 

You simply show your ignorance and partisan ship.You invoke Norman Finkeklstein and John Mearsheimer, two distinguished academics but both tarred by irrational positions on Israel and Jewish people.(Yes, I know Finkelstein is himself Jewish)

 

For am informed position on Finkelstein, see a Guardian review from several years ago.

I have hundreds of Jewish friends and they are disgusted and horrified by the Zionist, apartheid, and ethnic cleansing policies and actions of the extremist Israeli government. You obviously know little to nothing about the history and reality of the situation.

Hundreds of Jewish friends?

Impossible to believe. 
What kind of freak has hundreds of friends of any kind?

Do you know the definition of friend?

Maybe you mean facebook "friends" ha ha.

Another ignorant post.I have no brief for the Israeli Government and definitely not for Netanyahu.The huge demonstrations against it show  the opposition to current policy by large sections of the Israeli population.I simply pointed out your tainted sources.Your "hundreds of Jewish friends" - if they exist - would make the same point.
