@Nochem @jcast I want to be clear here that I am not criticizing @Nochem for his having a stance on the existence of Israel that disagrees with mine. But I think that @jcast needs to understand that a Jewish person explaining why they oppose (or support) the existence of Israel is a far, far different thing than having a non-Jewish person fish for ideas about how to tell Jewish people what is the correct Jewish way to think about the existence of Israel.
