Matthew: << Max, sincere question: what other states are made up of a population brought from somewhere else after 1900 (or 1945 for that matter) to an area already populated by other peoples... >>

And what makes 1900, or 1945, the relevant line of demarcation? Could it be that it provides a convenient point for demarcating Israel from the host of other settler states that surround the globe, from Australia and New Zealand to Canada and the US, from Cuba and Jamaica to Chile and Argentina? A cover for what is a singling out of the one nation state which is Jewish? Leo Casey United Federation of Teachers 260 Park Avenue South New York, New York 10010-7272 212-98-6869

Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never has, and it never will. If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet deprecate agitation are men who want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its waters. -- Frederick Douglass --
