Ive noticed, and thought i'd share, how it seems we treat followers of the two religions differently, in terms of extremes.
The majority of people, if they see a person preaching that we should take what jesus says literally, being passive, loving all, etc, pass them of as a crazy evangelist.
But if theres a person preaching how a certain piece of land belongs to them because of their religion, or celebrate a festival based on a story of genocide, it is seen as acceptable.
Im not trying to say thers some kind of jewish conspiracy going on, but it does seem dumb how different peoples standards are when they judge the two religions.

Ive noticed how theres also a group of Facists blowing them selves up in the name of religion, being condoned by members of this board. But well. I also see capitalists ignoring little details such rockets being fired into buildings full of civillians.

But hey

are you talking about palestinian suicide bombers? they arent facsists. i dont think they are particularly left wing, but certainly they arent fascist. or are you just calling them that as a way of pushing aside what they stand for, without actually addressing it.

The Palestinians are nationalists, freedomfighters and revolutionaries over everything else. They don't really have any political goals exept the liberation of Palestine.
I would guess that maybe some sort of Arabic Socialism or maybe Islamic fundamentalism would rule if they had a country of their own.
