Though I fail to see how a right winger abused inside the green line can be justified along with this ?<BR/><BR/>This is the same for environmental nuts, my former flat mate is a real environmentalist.. not the activist types that are hypocritical.. he does not use plastic for one.. but isnt going to tell you what to use!<BR/><BR/>Its like these echo terrorists that justify burning down houses as the houses were built on destroyed forests..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-12210824317206142352008-10-31T10:36:00.000+02:002008-10-31T10:36:00.000+02:00Lurker- I can find you plenty more Israeli Human R...Lurker- I can find you plenty more Israeli Human Rights activists who care. The issue is, I believe, people are not as brave as Yariv Mohar in expressing their feelings.<BR/><BR/>I, for one, became very irritated by the fact that the movement I associated with did not recognise the complexities of suffering on both sides instead sticking to a parrot-like political (rather than human rights) agenda which sounds dated and one-sided. As such I've distanced myself from the movement as I find them hypocritical and just "mind my own shop", in terms of the work I do- and I know some others who have done the same (Not that I'm claiming to be Tzadeket Sdom!) Plenty more of my former colleagues and present friends have polarised in the opposite direction. <BR/><BR/>Frankly, it's all a bit soul-destroying, whichever way you look at it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-90740300618613316692008-10-30T20:08:00.000+02:002008-10-30T20:08:00.000+02:00And how do they even know who made the caustic sta...And how do they even know who made the caustic statements? <BR/><BR/>Because the guy outed himself, as he regretted his remarks that he said in the heat of the moment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-60671376891798136262008-10-30T20:01:00.000+02:002008-10-30T20:01:00.000+02:00That's quite a rare find you've got there: An Isr...That's quite a rare find you've got there: An Israeli leftist human rights activist who genuinely adheres to the principles of human rights.

Human rights is generally just a ploy to them, not a real issue as the Ynet article indicates (but doesn't draw the conclusion).<BR/><BR/>We see it in the US and other places, too. People here demonstrate every Friday that Bush is a war criminal (do they even know what that really means) and a Nazi. They get ecstatic over their rhetoric.<BR/><BR/>It isn't rational, and it certainly isn't about truth, justice, or human rights.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-38160153497766059102008-10-30T15:58:00.000+02:002008-10-30T15:58:00.000+02:00Jameel,These things no longer surprise me, either....Jameel,<BR/><BR/>These things no longer surprise me, either.
