#5 There is no such thing as a "Will to Truth." Truth exists independent of the will of the individual. Of course this flies in the face of Post-Modern dogma where everyone gets to have his personal truth. Ask the dead riders on the Jerusalem bus about truth. Ask St. Rachel Pancake. Wishing does not make it so. Meaningful discussion can only occur when both parties admit that there is truth, and then honestly seek to find it. This is what is so frustrating about today's Left - there is no truth outside of their fevered imaginations. |

#4 Peace is the search for harmony between people. Peace is all about reconciliation.â Why do we have to suffer such fools as Brad? Look how he paints a little smiley face and tries to come up with cute slogans that make no sense, but gives him a sense of satisfaction as meaningful as putting the little pink bows on the manes of his Pretty Pony collection. Oooooh...prtty. ..all the little children clap and have cake. Why is it that the left thinks all the world's conflicts can be solved if they can just word the conflict in such a manner as to make everyone happy. The only way Osama will find peace in your presence is to chop off your infidel head. No amount of poetry that you write will cause him to jump up and say "you're right! I never thought of it like that! Give me a hug, Will of Truth! You are a naive little wisp of the willow, so much so, it's almost cute. If Western Civilization and all of the freedoms that we take for granted weren't at risk, your pretty pony parade would be a real kick. Don't know how old you are, but as they say, "you can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain. Time to grow up and get real. |

#3 Another little mentioned fact was that many Palestinians were compensated for their patch of sand in 1948, by the Rockefellers and others. It was the Jewish settlers' blood and sweat equity that transformed the land and made it profitable. The Palestinians sold their birthright, just as Esau did. |

#2 That said (and maybe I'm too kind), but I believe that "willtotruth" doesn't truly wish the destruction of Israel--instead I think his knowledge of what REALLY occurred is limited and cluttered by the lies that have become accepted as truth during the last couple of decades. Distinction without difference. Ignorance does not excuse malice. |

#1 Your post does an excellent job of reciting a history that many on the left have attempted to white wash. That said (and maybe I'm too kind), but I believe that "willtotruth" doesn't truly wish the destruction of Israel--instead I think his knowledge of what REALLY occurred is limited and cluttered by the lies that have become accepted as truth during the last couple of decades. In discussions with his type, one short-cut to bringing them up to speed I've found is to ask questions of them, such as "What was the name of the *Palestinian* ruler at the time that the Jews 'stole' land from the Palestinians?" Even though such a question seems shocking simple, you'd be surprised at the number of Americans that have no idea that "Palestine" never existed as a sovereign entity, and as a result had no "king", no "ruler", no army, no weaponry, etc. Where you take them from there is up to you, but you've opened the door for their education. |
