An Israeli military medic who was captured on camera killing an incapacitated Palestinian attacker last year has been sentenced to 18 months in prison.If Israel feels picked-on by its various detractors when it comes to Palestinians, I suspect it has something to do with how much better armed and willing to use those better arms against the Palestinians the Israelis are. No one's blameless in the Israel-Palestinian clusterfuck, but Israel is more serenely egregious from where I sit. And U.S. complicity is hard to sidestep.
Apartheid anyone?
My doctor, an old friend, is jewish, a zionist, and very liberal. He says the folks in the middle east deserve each other. And i imagine that's true of all of us. We're humanity, living on a single planet. Why those two descriptors have to be artificially divided into factions and realms escapes me.
