[url=http://tinyurl.com/ou4w7ul]Roger Waters compares Israel to 40's Germany and is immediately called an antisemite by dozens of religious leaders, none of whom address his complaints about Israel's brutal treatment of the Palestinians. [/url]
It's like they don't even realize that by equating criticism of Israel with criticism with Judaism, they are effectively making those atrocities part of Judaism. They [i]don't have to[/i] defend Israel to be Jews.
What are your thoughts on religion and state being combined? I tend to think that it undermines both.
edit: lol, had to tinyurl the URL.

*Sigh* They could try something other than screaming ANTI-SEMITE! YOU HATE ALL TEH JEWS AND DENY THE HOLOCAUST! every time someone criticizes Israel for being a full blown dick to palestine.
