SilverSpear, it is next to impossible to hold a rational, intellectual, non-emotional discussion about USA-Israel relations.

I can criticise Canadian policy, and nobody will accuse me of being un-Canadian. I am able to criticise German policy, and nobody accuses me of being anti-German. Sometimes, not always, when I voice my dislike for aspects of US policy, I'm accused of being anti-American.

But every single time I have ever voiced even the slightest opposition regarding Israeli policy, I am accused of being anti-Semitic and anti-Israeli.

Considering my family background, it should be even kinda funny. It isn't.
