As Benny Hill said: Always learning......

Pendare Nik - Some good advice
by Simorgh5555 on Sun Jun 19, 2011 02:04 PM PDTDid you know that a psychiatrist would have a field day analysing you? One the one hand you oppose Israel whether its existence or its policies.
Then on the other hand you are trying to look for voices of dissent in the Jewish company to relieve your conscience that you are not an anti-semite because 'there are Jews who agree with me'. Do you remember when you were a small child and one of your relatives would tell you that the Jews were najis? You haven't quite shaken that off even if you are a grown adult. You cannot bring yourself to admit you have an aversion to Jews and cower behind the Zionist mantra.
On the other hand the reason for your obsession may be that you revere Jews because you believe that they are a 'promised people' because of their success and achievement in science, politics and art. You quietly envy this and admire them at the same but all the while you cannot accept what they are doing in Israel. You love and hate Jews in equal measure.
Here is what I suggest and I'm not saying this to embarrass you. I'm genuinely trying to help. Don't waste money seeing your therapist who ironically you say is Jewish and go to your neearest El Al airline travel agent and book yourself a ticket to Israel and work in a Kabbutz for a while. Just get it out of your system and move on in your life. There is more to life than a small strip of land the size of New Jersey and which has 1/65 of the population of Iran.
