Israel's cabinet decided Sunday to allow about 17,000 Ethiopians
waiting in refugee camps to move to the Jewish state.
The cabinet agreed to allow in up to 95 percent of the 20,000
Ethiopians, who have applied for immigration, claiming they are Jews.
Known as the Falash Mura, they had converted to Christianity but have
maintained some Jewish traditions.
Many had moved from outlying areas of Ethiopia in anticipation of
being accepted for immigration to Israel and had rented mud huts near
two compounds in Addis Ababa, the capital, and the northern city of
Gondar.
Some had already succeeded in immigrating after proving they had
either a Jewish grandparent or to be reunited with other family
members who had moved to Israel.
Interior Minister Eli Yishai, a member of the Jewish ultra-orthodox
Shas Party, was appointed to head a ministerial committee to oversee
the process.
He told the cabinet that the decision should be implemented
immediately because the Ethiopians waiting in camps were living in
what he called difficult and even dangerous conditions.
About 80,000 Ethiopian Jews live in Israel. Many of them were brought
over in massive Israeli airlifts during times of crisis in 1984 and
1991.

You've gone way over the line here. Whatever his faults may be, Mr. Yishai
does not deserve this vicious attack and it constitutes a blatant violation
of the laws of ahavas Yisroel, onaas devorim, motsei sheim ra, etc., etc.

All sections of the Agudah go in one direction: To Zionism
And even within the party called Agudah there are a number of known
groups, but they all lead to the direction of Zionism, from whence is
the well of evil and bitter waters of sectarianism and heresy...
Zionism with the Approval of the "Council of Torah Sages"
And now that the Agudah has joined with the idolators, the idolators
are even more arrogant since they see that everyone is with them. This
is because the Agudah operates with the approval of the 'Council of
Torah Sages' and the rabbis and rebbes and heads of yeshivas make all
their actions kosher.
Walking arm in arm
Anyone with a brain in his head can see that in recent years the
Agudah has joined the Zionists arm in arm, but just with different
faces.....
All their words (of the Agudah) are empty air
It is impossible to go into all their empty claims, lies, fantasies
and falsifications on paper, since there is no limit to their empty
words and lies and phoney fantasies. But anyone concerned with the
word of G-d sees that all their words are vanity, and totally lacking
in content.
They serve the Zionist idolatry with all their hearts
Satan has succeeded in that even some who are called religious have
devoted themselves to serving the Zionists with all their hearts, and
help them to fulfill their aspirations to mislead and deceive. They
totally turn themselves over to idolatry.
They bring Zionism into Synagogues
The religious Zionists bring the rule of the Zionists into the
synagogues, where they recite Hallel and Shehechayanu and make fund
raising appeals for all the organizations. They know themselves that
the money they are collecting, even on the Eve of Yom Kippur goes into
places of heresy and destruction of our religion.
Anyone helping the Zionists to bring immigrants to the Holy Land, woe
to them and their souls
And all the moreso when they come to Eretz Yisrael under the Zionists
and fall into their trap, and then pull out of them any faith and
Torah. Woe to them and their souls those aiding this and flattering
the Zionists. Their sin is great, and rises to heaven.
The claims of the Agudah that they fight Zionism is ridiculous
And how can they say that they fight the Zionists and that their
educational system is geared to implant pure faith to fight heresy?
Who would be foolish enough to believe that the heretics would give
money and weapons to enable others to fight against them? Their whole
purpose is to WEAKEN the struggle against them and to implant heresy
into the educational system.
Joining the Agudah is dangerous physically and spiritually
For all those religious people who gives the Zionists support, and
have distorted the teachings of the Torah, they shall be held
responsible in the next world. One has to run away from them and from
joining them as far as is possible. Joining them is a great physical
and spiritual danger.
How can anyone join the Agudah who are one with the Zionists?
With regard to your question about joining the Agudah, I am surprised
at the question, since it is known that they are one with the Zionists
who have destroyed the world and dragged the Jewish people into
heresy.
Whoever brings the people to join the heretics, G-d forbid to join him
or to listen to his instructions
Whoever praises the heretics and brings the masses over to the views
of the heretics, G-d forbid to join him or to listen to his
instructions.

if they'd say `our senile rebbe told us this and that a coupla
centuries ago we didn't understand a word and forgot it but what the
hell we wouldn't understand it anyway' and go on living their
miserable lives off in mea shearim or in another hole i wouldn't mind
it.
nah
this tiny sect has gone very public:
they don't agree with the existense of israel because of their
interpretation of the book and instead of leaving it to themselves
they became missionaries promoting their interpretation through
uniting with any and every scumbag which happens to hate israel, on
the basis of their common hatred, forget that this scumbag hates jews
too with israel or without it, thus putting the very jewish lives in
danger
their reps don't miss one israel bashing contest
they attend witch hunts against jews where possible like willing
executioners
they united with yasir arafat like two buddies in hate for the common
goal--he'd like to see israel gone so would they
and they're used like useful idiots by jewhating israel hating mob and
are hated themselves because they're jews

Does a South American Indian Jewish convert, shipped over to a spanking new
settlement in the Occupied Territories, to an area and culture that is
totally alien to him, make your "Jewish" state more "Jewish" ?
Or does it make it a sham and crime, not only to the people whose land he
will occupy, but to the poor man himself and his family, who is likely
wondering what the hell he has done to deserve the hell in which he's been
placed ?

Now, how would you know with your stacked brain? Nobody is

you, of course, curse us here, but wait, one day the American

Today, you still pompously curse Israel, but the time is not far

Zero debating skills again from RJ Goldman, the truth obviously hurts this
rabid Zionist. Not even he can defend the conversion of South American
Indians and then shipping them off to the Promised land.

How sad, the gay slur tactic, this is what someone as pathetic as you is
reduced to is it ?
I'm willing to debate anything with anyone, however, the same can not be
said from the likes of Zionists like you. You are all blinded by your
religion and faith, and see no logic to facts and the truth.
Indeed, you show exactly what debating skills you have by the above slur.
David Goldman obviously gets right under your skin, and it makes me cry with
laughter sometimes to see your pathetic attempts to try and put him down.
Inevitably he has you running round in circles, and you then reduce yourself
to slurs like the above as your only response.
I told someone off on anther group for making a rather loaded anti-Semite
statement of signalling people out as 'Good' Jews and 'Bad' Jews. I stand by
that because of the context in which it was used.
But you will be pleased to know I will make an exception in these
circumstances. David Goldman is a 'Good' Jew, whereas you, Mr R.J. Goldman,
are not only a 'Bad' Jew, you and your Zionist cohorts are EVIL.

If you were intelligent and open to debate, you would attempt to at least
answer properly. Instead you resort to the little two line snips, which
contain nothing of content and show you up for exactly what you are.

Michael, you are a gem. I communicate with david goldman for several
years and, for you and others, I'll state it loud and clear: he is a man of
culture, a polyglot with a vast knowledge and, most important, he works,
earning his living - a rare combination for a ultra-Orthodox.
When we bypass the controversial issues, we can even communicate,
however, lately, those issues, of very dissonant tones, are the only one
he touches, to my dismay, with a inhuman ferocity, that made me call
him behema. His lines are systematic cursing of the State of Israel, of
which I am proud to be part of it, whishes of its destruction and an
active support of the worst enemies of Israel, and they are quite a few.
The worst part is that he lost the listening ability and is constantly
grinding the same note, regardless of the subject, making any
intelligent discussion impossible - on this he's not alone, there are
a few more that first write then think and, usually don't comprehend
beyond the written words.
Have a nice day,

This is how many people feel nowadays, the actions and systematic murderous
policies of Israel make many think in exactly the same manner. You could
also probably include me in this as well, as I despise the way the Zionists
behave.

And there are several hundred thousand peasant farms in Eastern Europe your
fathers and grandfathers left, waiting for your to return - because that's
all your are now, immigrants, on land that does not belong to you.
Goldman's gone all quiet now he's been asked for some facts.
Lets take a few guesses then.
He was born in the USA.
He then left to spend some time in the 'Fatherland' where he joined the
Israeli Army and he served for ?
10 years according to him.
After serving for the Israeli Army he returned back to the SE of the USA,
where he now lives.
Does he hold an Israeli passport or an American Passport ?
That's the all important question.

Posted by Fouad on August 17, 19102 at 02:01:41:
Asalam Aleikoum Muslimeen,
Notice that "Rabbi Weissfish" and other Neturei Karta Rabbis continue
to flood this page with there propoganda. Rabbi you can NOT livein
peace with Muslims and we dont need your help. Rabbi Hirsh from
Neturei Karta is busy trying to show us how great he is by meeting
secular Arab leaders. Well Neturei Karta boys we are Muslims, and
understand the Jew from our Quran and Sunneh sahih. Rabbi Hirsh turned
in a Muslim brother to the Jew organazation Yad L'achim this is a FACT
and Yad L'Achim has to date filed 3 complaints with the Jewish Enemy
Entity that this brother "beats his wife and kids" "teaches his kids
to be suicide bombers" etc. but this is not new for Neturei Karata's
brothers in judaism Yad L'achim. They are responsiabe by there own
claim of breking many families of converted Muslims that were once
Jews. Here is Rabbi Lifshi-tz own quote:
Rabbi Lifsh-itz observed that in his work with Yad L`Achim, an
anti-missionary organization, he has been involved with rescuing
hundreds of Jewish women who had married Arab men and were residing in
Arab villages.
For this reason we urge ALL MUSLIMS around the world and at evrey
"palestine" rally, to hold ALL Orthodox Jews accountable for neturei
Karta's action and Yad L'Acims. Let them understand that we KNOW how
racist ther filthy Talmud is and what it teaches about us. MAKE THEM
PAY!!! and understand that Muslim blood is NOT cheap and while they
sit at there Shabbos tables make them shiver in fear, for paybacks
WILL BE forth coming. Thats a promise from a Muslim a SWEAR.
To Sum Up: Neturei Karta Is Our Eternal Enemy of Islam.
Muslims Must Hold Them Accountable For There Trying To Break A Muslim
Family In Palestine.
The Talmud IS filthy and racist.
here is some more info on Neturei Karta & Other filthy Rabbinical
Jews. http://www.answeringjews.com
Please email me with any questions Yyou may have, like locations of
Satmar Synagogs, Kolels, where you can report the exact locations that
the Orthodox Jews sell Alcohal to minors in there Mikvas and shop for
toys and clothing with food stamps etc etc.

I am much more carefull when using extreme words. Calling Israel's
policies and actions "murderous" means that you not only acused
Israel of murder, but proved and sentenced as well. From your low
moral stature, I believe that you can, at best, accuse Israel, othewise
you'll prove complete ignorance on what Israel does, it's legal system
and practices. Unless you have some solid proofs that Israel commits
murder, you better avoid those words. I wonder what's your oppinion
on a homicide bomber that kills intentionally civilian, women and
children preffered.
Now, declaratively despising someone or something proves the same
thing - it's comming in lieu of something more concrete. For two
millenia, the Christians despised the Jews for what they did to Jesus,
in spite that this was a blatant lie, acknowledged only recently by the
Pope. So, in this field too, be more careful before sentencing one.
You certainly can accuse, but listen to the other side - even if you'll
go midway, it's better than taking one side only.

I'm sure it is, surrounded by those who do nothing but throw abuse at the
slightest criticism of Israel. I suppose at least you don't immediately
throw the anti-Semite tag into the ring and accuse me of being a

Plenty of evidence to back up my stance, of which I could rattle off quite a
few. For starters, bulldozing the family houses of dead suicide bombers is a
crime against humanity.

Legal system and practices ?

Israel as a nation state has no moral ground to stand on whatsoever.
Countless times the actions of Israel have been condemned Internationally.

Sabra and Shatilla.
Terrorist actions like dropping thousand pound bombs on residential blocks
of flats full of innocent civilians, to get one wanted man.
The above bulldozing of innocent people's houses, which contravenes the
Geneva Convention.
Assassination squads.
Car bombs on militant suspects.
These are NOT the actions of a civilised state conforming to International
law.

I've listened to the other side plenty, to abuse from the off from people
like RJ Goldman. He has NEVER attempted to discuss anything with me without
a liberal splashing of obscenities thrown in.

Son ?
I think not, it'll be difficult as we are both around the same age.
You see, I too served in the British Military at the same time as you served
in Israel. The difference is I served my country in a proper war, where we
fought by the Geneva Convention and didn't act like terrorists.
So, let me guess, you were born in the USA and then went to Israel, where
you also obtained yourself an Israeli passport - Correct ?

Demolishing the houses of the homicide murderes, after making sure
no one get's hurt is complies to the International and Israeli Law. Before
the demolition, the families can appeal to the High Court and part of
the demolitions are withheld.
On the other hand, try to think how humane would have those
homicide bombers look if they would have asked the crowd around
him to step back because he wants to blow himself up.

Israel has nothing to do legally with that incident, only in the mind of
narrow thinking people, however the homicide murderers are more
than happily sent to certain death and their families are recompensed
with $25,000 for each bomber.
> Terrorist actions like dropping thousand pound bombs on residential blocks

I guess that aiming at random mortar shells and primitive rockets to
civilian areas is not less terrorist. I'd like to be more precise than you:
only one 500 kg bomb has been dropped to eliminate an archi-terrorist.
Since then, Israel adopted other means in fighting terrorism, quite
succesful lately.

Israel is the home of the Jewish people and any one,
regardless of their inclination is entitled for citizenship,
with all its advantages, mainly for medical insurance.
Israeli hospitals, of the highest medical level, are
constantly enlarging their gynaecologic and pediatric
wards and guess who are their best clients?

Don't be so sure. They are just too busy now, but the time
will come . . . (pssssss)
. . . are you sure, behema?
So far, you kept a civilized level of debate, without letting your urges
to surface, I hope that this will not change.
About those hundreds of thousands of houses in Eastern Europe, they
have been all confiscated by the various regimes while pointing to
the exit signs. Some emigrated to Israel, some to Western countries,
US and UK included.
Most of the land which is now Israel was malaria infested or arid
desert land where no one lived except for sporadic nomads. It's
the Jewish emigrants that made, with great effort, that land fertile
and today Israel exports its agricultural surpluses.
When the Arabs demand from us to leave, they mean that only we
should leave leaving the stores well stocked, banks with money,
and the nice houses we live in leave intact. Not once I heard
Arabs saying: with your work and our brains we'll get far.
So, before you play and re-play anti-Israeli slogans from the
hatred soaked Arab "information" centers, you'd better listen
to the other side too, it might be revealing and mind refreshing.
A visit here will probably shock you; partly from the difference
between the reality and the image you created in your mind
and partly from the beauty of the land and its people.

I don't hate Jews at all, I have some very good friends who are Jewish.
Please show me evidence where I state that I hate Jews.
There are a very few individuals I hate, Bush, Sharon, Arafat, bin Laden,
Mugabe and the usual crowd. Yes, I hate Zionism and everything it stands
for, but I also hate the Catholic Church.
I judge people as individuals and how they treat me, not by their race or
colour, and certainly not by their religion.

So do I, Giora, but I also respond to rudeness and abuse when it is directed
at me. People like RJ Goldman don't seem to understand that by attacking
what someone says, with personnel abuse as an introduction, is NOT the way
to get off on a very good footing.
What you see is me responding in kind to his continued abuse.

It's against the Geneva Convention, it's an abuse of Human Rights.
Just because it's a Law in Israel, doesn't make it an International Law.
What other Democracy or civilised state practices such acts ?

Imagine how humane the IDF would be if they announced on loud speakers that
they were about to shoot to kill teenagers throwing stones. The Gunships
also before they fire a missile into a civilian area or housing.

Narrow thinking people ?
I see, the internal Israeli enquiry, which found Ariel Sharon personally
responsible for the atrocities, was made up of narrow thinking people was
it?
The incident was performed by Israel's allies.
The operation was overseen by the Israeli's under the command of Ariel
Sharon.
As they went about their murderous search through the camps, the Israeli
Army lighted the sky for them like it was day.
Sharon was advised and warned to withdraw them, he refused and let them
continue.
After the enquiry, Sharon was forced to resign from Office.
Saying Israel had nothing whatsoever to do with Sabra and Shatilla is like
saying the USA had nothing whatsoever to do with Armstrong's first walk on
the Moon - Laughable.

OK, one 500Kg Bomb = 1100lbs, lets be very precise shall we, dropped on a
residential block, murdering several innocent women and children - all to
get one man.
That's a crime against humanity.

That makes it right does it ?
So much for your "balanced and objective" outlook, your true Zionist colours
are showing through now.
The Nazi's policies and actions were also effective, but it doesn't make
what they did right. Israel's actions cause more and more people to line up
with a bomb strapped around them, with the intention of blowing you all to
pieces. Subsequently, we get an endless cycle of violence which neither side
can ever hope to win.

RJ Goldman can't formulate his own posts, so he resorts to congratulating

For your information, the Argies were a bunch of conscripts and ill

their totally incompetent commanders - they taught nobody a lesson, and

They won't be back, unlike the Palestinians.

there's no better reward like cooking michael w KooK..
in contrast to the christian militias in 1982-1984 palistanians had
heavy weapons at the start of the civil war.
artillery : 107 mm (chinese origin), 122 mm, 130 mm, 155 mm, BM-21.
tanks : Charioteer, T34, T54, T55.
APC : M113
AK47, M16, RPG.
hardly `a few home-made efforts or some dodgy Soviet stuff, that
couldn't hit fuck-all from 100 yards'.
that sadly proves all your `military background' is polishing bowls in
the senior officers' head..

Yes you do, but masked in anti-Zionism. Zionism is an idea to create
a home for the persecuted and depositioned Jews, mainly from Eastern
Europe where anti-Semitic pogroms begun in the 19th century. At the
creation of the State of Israel, a Law was passed to let anyone of Jewish
origin to Israeli citizenship. The problem was, mainly at the beginning,
the hard life here and the high risks they were taken. Many couldn't
bear the situation and left with the generous help from anti-Zionist
organizations.
From the Western countries many emigrated to Israel when it was
fashionable, in the '50s, after '67 . . . but most of them returned to
the comfortable chairs they left back home.

Then how come you hate Zionism. Again, it's an idea that served as
a cohesion tool BEFORE the creation of the State of Israel. Although
the word is still used, it lost its purpose long ago, except in the bitter
eyes of Israel haters.

It is not illegal, besides, what other choices we have? Succombing
to the brutal, inhumane, terror actions is not considered as a possibility.
Other Democracies? Where on earth you can find such organized
terrorism? You certainly would have talked differently if you would
have been afraid to go to the supermarket or ride a bus.

As a rule, IDF never open fire on women and children. Accidents do
happen, mostly because they are used as humane shields. On the
other hand, the Arab terrorists will always blow up where women
and children are most. You may argue with me vehemently on this,
but that's only from your lack of knowledge. Life is not slogans
and (mis)conceptions - try to imagine living among people where
their pride is far more important that human life, not to mention
work. I am making here another humble attempt to call you to

You won't believe, but not much, it is not profitable in Israel to
fall in combat. And we have many - practicaly you can't find a
family in Israel without a casualty, probably not much in your eyes

It was a fortified heavy concrete building where a bloody terrorist
headquarter conducted their actions, as usual, amid civilians. To
penetrate it a large charge had to be used. The civilian casualties
were, relatively, small in number - you can't imagine what a 500 kg
bomb could have do to a residential are. Enough if I'll say that
4-5 kg of explosive will blow up a four stories house. In this case,
the bomb penetrated the wall of the building killing all inside. From
the enourmous shock, not from the explosion itself, 15 civilians
casualties have been counted.

Not in your eyes - but, believe me, we try to be as civilized as

Well, it was true until a while ago. By now, probably to your fright, most
of the homicides are captured before they reach us but, even more, lately,
the PA begun to ask for talks assuring a year of avoidance of terrorist
conduct, another reason to repeat my appeal for better information than
you get now.

So you say.
Anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism are not the same thing.
If I hate Jews so much, why am I conversing with you. I don't hate you, in
fact, I'd probably quite like to meet you and discuss things with you - You
are obviously far more intelligent and literate than most of the morons on
this group.

As I mentioned earlier, since the formation of Israel, it has done nothing
but bring death and destruction to the area, instability, and both sides are
constantly living in fear of each other. The bitter hatred caused by the
formation of a Zionist State is quite evident here on this group, and that
is only in words. The suffering it has caused to countless thousands of
people over the years, the deaths and destruction, far outweighs any
justification in my eyes.
Don't get me wrong, I don't believe the Palestinian cause is a bed of roses
and shining bright lights of good over evil, they are as responsible as
everyone else involved who has kept this hatred alive.

It's like pouring petrol on an open fire, or rubbing salt into an open
wound, whoever thought such a thing is a justifiable action is either stupid
or down right evil, it's a crime against humanity - for heaven sake, Giora,
the Nazi's used to do such things.
The bottom line is that the practice is used as a collective punishment,
which is outlawed under the Geneva conventions.

No it isn't, you are bound to say such things because that is what you are
fed each day in your media. When Women or Children are killed there is
always some justification sited by the authorities and that is that.
There is no come back from anyone else, for the bereaved families, witnesses
if available are quickly discredited. Just two days ago a doctor and his
assistant were sniped by Israeli troops at while on their way to visit a
patient, killing the assistant.
What happened there ?
Will there be a full investigation, will the culprit be charged with murder?
Of course they won't, at best he'll get a slapped wrist and it'll be
forgotten about before the month's out.
You read the party line, Goria, therefore you are totally biased.
Almost 30 years after the event we are still having enquiries in the UK on a
case where some British Paratroopers opened fire on a civilian population
and killed several people. They were rioting, missiles were being thrown,
petrol bombs etc, shots were also supposed to have been fired at the troops.
It matters not here who is the guilty party in this case, but the point is I
can't EVER see this sort of justice happening in Israel.

I do listen to your argument and pleas, and you have my full sympathy, but
it very much takes two to tango, and answering extreme violence with even
more extreme violence in return is going to solve nothing.

I have no reason to disbelieve you at all, it's probably the same as British
Troops who have been killed on active service, a pittance.
I'm sure if I also went amongst the Palestinians, I would find equal numbers
of families who have suffered similarly.

I'm no armchair fault finder, I've seen what war can do to people, I've also
seen comrades ripped to pieces by machine gun fire. I know full well what is
going on, and I know what is going on in the minds of the combatants.
You don't have to preach to me on the horrors and filthiness of war.

When ?
At the Camp David talks, one of the main points under discussion was to stop
the building of settlements in the Occupied Territories - the bulldozers and
JCB's continued building unabated while the talks were in progress, that's
how serious Israel were of negotiating a peace.
I saw a map about ten months ago which showed where all these settlements
were, thinking previously that they were scattered here and there, mainly
close to the borders etc. Imagine my horror when I saw a map that looked
like it was covered in a rash, everywhere.
It's an absolute disgrace, they should not be there at all, not one of them.

That's no answer I'm afraid.
Please, Giora, give me a little of the respect I have shown for you in
return, if nothing else.

Exaggeration is the honest man's way of lying. True, we got and still
get military aid; Israel budget's thirs is going to defence, in the last two
years even more. In view of the insatiable crave of our neighbours to
drive us in the sea, we have to keep a military supremacy to keep
good neighbours. Any way, the military aid we get (3 billion yearly)
is limited to purchase US made goods, so, in a way, we keep many
Americans employed. From time to time, Israel asks for loan guaranties
to make the loans cheaper, which, again, make more Americans
emplyed.
About hudreds of thousands of dead - since it's creation, Israel
has lost slightly more than 20,000 lives in combat and terror actions,
about 10 fold injured, that a 6 million nation can bear, not without
pain and grief. The casualties on the Arab side, all together, are
rougly double these figures, but their population is more than 10
fold of htat of Israel - not that it was less painfull for them.

No, but I don't hate them. You have to understand them, they got
many blows here. They left a very confortable way of life and here
they didn't received the gratitute they expected to get.
On top of that, they thought that good knowledge of the Western
way of life supercede the culture many Europeans come with.

Wrong again. Israel is by now green from top to bottom with a forefront
industry and a plentiful agriculture, all this as a summation of
uninterrupted
hard work of all of us and today, is a regional economic giant. A good
part of the hatred of our neighbors come from envy for our standard
of living, they just easily ignore the fact that while the average Israeli
worked in two places, his Arab counterpart lived on UNWRA's welfare
and, in the spare time, procreated at an unheard rate

That's the magic word - not on the same scale. In the last two-three years
only, the Palestinians planned about 20,000 terror actions. Homicide
murderers, sniper fire or just plain explosive charges. True, many have
been prevented, many went wrong (occupational hazards), still, more
than 2,000 succeeded with hundreds of dead and thousands of injured
because, as a rule, their charges were half explosive, half nails to
increase as much as possible the number of casualties. If you would
have seen the cranial X-ray of an infant with two long nails in his brain
you would have talked differently

It's a blatant lie, one of the many the Arabs spread and you, and

Take them with a grain of salt, I don't like it too, but take them in
proportion. They occupy about 3% of the area and they number 100,000
at best. On top of that, 90% of them will evacuate in a civilized manner
at the final agreement, though 10% will make a lot of troubles.

And by you stating such nonsense, divulges how very wrong your thinking is.
I also have a number of friends who are Black, as well as a number of
friends who are gay, one of whom I've just spent the last 2 hours with
walking my dogs.
By merely stating such a thing, according to your logic, it makes me a
racist. In fact, my gay friend is also Jewish, so that makes me a Homophobic
and anti-Semite.
Perhaps I was a little hasty in calling you intelligent and literate and
separating you out from the usual nonsense written here, especially with
wild statements and conclusions drawn like that above.
You disappoint me.

No, on the contrary, it doesn't disturb me at all, in fact I gathered that
