The sad thing is when you look things from a Psychological perspective many things become apparent...the collective guilt, the resolve to survive at all cost in the concentration camps, the the displacement of helplessness and anger, the PTSD on both sides, the never again mentality...this whole thing is one sad psychological mess...it goes against the grain of social justice which was the pillar of Jewish activism and who loses...
the children of middle-east..both Arab and Jew...
BAck to Helen..she has seen so much of how this conflict has played out ..what fair journalist wouldn't get tired and speak their mind..look at Chomsky and Zinn...and many others..the pressure and anger they get in return form Krauthammer and Dueshowitz etal..would take its toll on anyone who criticizes Israel ....no one want the anti-Semite label..because it comes with such a horrible history...but one should be careful not to use labels against other in the same way...because it cheapens the fact the bigotry is still an issue.
