If my words are hate speech, then so be it. Israel has a right to exist as long as it does not feel it needs to subjugate those people who lived there before it came to exist. What I find that makes me angry is that we support Israel with billions of dollars which the bulk is in the form of military hardware. As we spend these billions, people in this country cannot afford health care or are living in poverty. Bloodshed is not the answer, but human rights needs to be respected. Most of the problems Israel faces are problems brought on by the past actions of the government and military. You don't make friends by bombing hospitals and shooting ambulances, or tearing out orchards or burning fields of grain.
I guess I can relate more to the people in Gaza than anyone in Israel.
