Israel is committing a Holocaust...but will a Memorial be built to show all the horrible actions?

[PaashRevolutionary]

Great question - more to it - will Mr. Spielberg dare to make a film on this massacre of 60 years?

the only land that is a historical homeland to WHITE PEOPLE IS EUROPE. THE SO-CALLED JEWS OF ISRAEL ARE ASKANAZI FROM GERMANY ie EUROPE .THERE IS NO WAY THAT A EUROPEAN CAN CLAIM PALESTINE OR ANYWHERE BUT EUROPE.

It began in 1918 it was started by the Balfour declaration signed in 1917 , jeez you don't even know what you are talking about.Chomsky clearly state in other speech that he was for Zionism but never under this form he wanted to buy land in Palestine which sound good to me as long as Palestinian want to sell them it could have worked but we will never know. I can't believe you are spiting on one of the only non-arab defender of Palestine.Go cry on Fox news channel and leave decent people alone.

Paash keeps misusing the term "Zionism". The meaning of that term has shifted 180 degrees. When Chomsky was involved in "Zionist" groups 50+ years ago, the meaning was different. Now it tends to mean "Israelis who want to expand the borders". That is not what it meant 50 years ago.

Oh, incidentally:

Chomsky's a secular Jew.

[inbrooklyn2008]

Google "Fake Talmud quotes" or "Faithweb Talmud"; the Talmud claims you're making are false.

But if you seriously believe that "the Talmud says you can lie to an Arab or Gentile and kill them if you want," you'll likely regard _anything_ a Jew might in say as lying. That's an insidiousness called "poisoning the well" - and you can see why an intransigent anti-Semite would so readily make use of it.

Israel =/= Judaism

As if Judaism were a religion with a monopoly on lying, in any case.
