"...rationalizing hate" ?????
Have you read the countless hate filled Hasbara trolls and psycho-Settler type comments demanding the murder of every Palestinian man woman and child and complete destruction of all of Gaza.
Almost half of Israel's Jews support ethnic cleansing (1) and those are just the ones who admit their hatred.
I spent 10 - 11 months walking and hitch hiking throughout the Islamic Middle East.
I slept in city parks, outside mosques and sometimes in the huts, homes and tents of the people who gave me rides.
In spite of the fact that I looked Western with a red beard and blue eyes, I never experienced hatred.
One time in Damascus a Syrian Army officer refused to share a room with me but that was the only snub I remember.
Many times someone who had given me a ride would insist on treating me to a meal with his friends and everybody was curious about life in America.
The two questions I was asked most frequently were:
1. "Why do Americans suddenly hate us?"
2. "Why does America help Israel kill the Palestinians and steal their land?"
I tried to explain the overwhelming influence of Israeli lobbies on Middle East policy making and the pro Israel bias in American MSM but they still couldn't understand why people as advanced as Americans could be so easily manipulated and gullible nor can I.
At the moment, Netanyahu and his genocidal right wing extremists are busily trying to kill as many Palestinians as they can and still trot out the Holocaust without laughing at what suckers his supporters are.
