Also I am not here encouraging anybody to be anti-Israeli or pro-
Palestinian. But I do not share the US Bush Proposal for the partition
of Israel into two States, one Arab, one Israeli. This is because , as
an Irishman, I see from experience that the partition of any country
is no solution. It's the very worst way to go !
As well, I do not support international terrorism which is mostly
Islam-sponsored these days .
Rather feel that the Palestinian people should have full
participation with the Jews, full civil rights and equal opportunities
in the governance of the State of Israel and in all walks of life.
Regarding the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, I believe that the USA, the
UK and their western allies should withdraw immediattely and
unconditionally, as the UK has almost done from Iraq .
The Chief of the General Staff of the British Army stated this about
two years ago ! Who knows better than he ?
Do all this and we will be well back along the path towards peace in
the world again.

COGS British Army was, of course, referring to withdrawal from Iraq
only.
BTW : One good thing about the Jewish People is that they have pride-
they work, they run their businesses through sheer hard work, they do
not, like the Poles in Ireland for instance, jet in here or anywhere
else in the world to live off the Dole ! I have in my time even met
Jewish people down on their luck, a few of them even homeless ( when I
was in London when I was young) . They accepted the help offered
graciously, both from the State and from charity, personally I helped
get two of them accommodated in London back in 1974 - and they were up
on their feet working in a month and never looked back , these are the
type of immigrants any country wants :-)
