A young maverick Jew named Shapiro was interviewed on the TV
morning news today. No it was not an April Fools joke: the young man
reminds me of the best and the brightest of the 60s anti-war movement.
Without supporting terrorism, he expressed intelligent sympathy for
the CAUSE of the Palestinians. And -of course - Shapiro interview was
abruptly terminated - so it seemed to me.
The smartest, most ethically sensitive Jews of the last
century were all communists, socialist, pacifists, or very passionate
liberals. Hardly any fanatical Zionists !
Is not a state based on religious mythology as anachronistic
as any creepy Islamic state ? Is modern Israel just a pipedream ?
Three cheers for Shapiro - a good HUMAN BEING !
