But I'm not even Jewish, except in some liberal Reformism given my atheism and Protestant Mom. So that gets me charges of being an insensitive goy and SHJ, sometimes based on the same comments. Based on this post: http://www.nathannewman.org/log/archives/000804.shtml#000804, I ended up getting slammed with a mess of nasty comments and I ended up with a whole discussion, plus comments on the right of non-Jews to talk about Israel here: http://www.nathannewman.org/log/archives/000804.shtml#000804
Found a whole site called halfjew.com that has a whole identity group discussing the issues of half-breeds and their confused identity in American society. http://www.nathannewman.org/log/archives/000807.shtml#000807
All part of the fun of discussing the topic.
