It saddens us, the authors, to see such venomous exchanges in the comments to this blog. We never fathomed that we would be building a forum for so many words that cause so much pain and anger.
The entire premise of the blog is to facilitate thought about peace, and what that means to us as a global community, and how we might work towards achieving some semblance of that in our lifetime.
We ask at this time that you keep your comments civil, brief, and pertaining directly to the posts and the polls that we have presented.
We appreciate your mindfulness and honor of this request.
Peace to you one and all.

Israeli Jets attack civilan homes, Another apology from Israel more Palestinian deaths. 09 Nov 2006
Opposing Israel or the actions of Israel does not an anti-semite or jew hater make
Opposing the US government or the actions of the US does not an anti-american make
Opposing the Nazis or the actions of Nazi Germany does not an anti-german or german hater maker.
Wishing you all, Peace & A Good Day!
Wow... that's all I can say.
Don't be sad loves! This is a great blog! People are just people. We all have ideas and opinions. Q didn't start off trying to piss anyone off and he has a right to feel the way he feels, whether most of us agree or not. I am often disappointed with many things that the US and Israeli governments are responsible for. However, I am super proud to be both an American and a Jew. Prouder of the latter, because through it all, in the words of my grandmother, our motto has been, "They came and tried to kill us all, we're still here, so let's eat!" You just gotta have a sense of humor. I am proud that we don't act like victims. Proud that we have never, at any point in history, amounted to more than 3% of the world population but our contributions to humanity are immeasurable! In the grand scheme, we are nothing. Spending our energy hating one another is pointless. Jesus was a Rabbi and his message was one of peace, even if he thought the law of Moses sucked. He'd have dug this blog. Big smackers to all!
Now if ever there was an olive branch extended, it just was. Bravo tamingtiger and thank you for redirecting our perspective.
Have a good night all. Oh could you pass the brisket...
Food always makes me feel better. Yum. Very nice, Tamingtiger.
