I base many of many views on those of Israeli dissidents, such as Uri Avnery, Ezra Nawi, the Israeli Committee Against Home Demolitions, and the historian Tom Segev.

Nothing I posted is anathema to either all Israeli Jews OR to the world's Jewish communities in general. And as I demonstrated in the last letter, I'm not even anti-Zionist, so what is it in what you wrote that you actually take issue with?

No serious mainstream historian holds the Palestinians as a people, or even Amin Al-Husanyi himself responsible in any meaningful way for the Holocaust. Nor does any serious historical scholar buy into the idea that Al-Husanyi gave Hitler the idea for extermination.

And in what universe should any Palestinian born after 1973 be punished for things that occurred before they were born?
