There are people who oppose the Belgian state, as there are people who 
oppose all the other states on this planet. Israel, like the U.S., is a

I have no problem with people who argue that nation states are not eternal 
political formations, but flawed human formations that should be subject to 
change; and that we may one day evolve alternative political formations that are 
more humane.

I do have a big problem with people who advocate violent means for 
eradicating Israel before eradicating any other national entity; when so many other 
nations in the world are also guilty of human rights violations.  And I have just 
as big a problem with people who care about Palestinian lives but do not care 
about Israeli lives.  I care about both.
