| schestowitz__ | The exposure I've had, particularly with groups like the Network of Spiritual Progressives and Tikkun Magazine, suggests that progressive Jews aren't only progressive for Jews. They take a tack entirely opposite to the Israeli government with regard to the Palestinians. | Apr 20 19:18 |
| schestowitz__ | None of this excuses what's happened in Palestine. But yes, there are some Jews who very clearly recognize the parallel between what Nazis did to Jews and what Jews have done to Palestinians. | Apr 20 19:18 |
| schestowitz__ | In addition, I highly recommend the writings of Avigail Abarbanel: | Apr 20 19:18 |
| schestowitz__ | Avigail Abarbanel, "A change needs to come," Electronic Intifada, May 25, 2008, http://electronicintifada.net/content/change-needs-come/7529 | Apr 20 19:18 |

| schestowitz__ | "I wouldn't suggest for a moment that there aren't general human rights organisations founded by jews, just that, historically, they've tended to look after their own. This isn't unique to the Jewish community: Christian and Muslim communities have done likewise. But at the same time, it doesn't exactly make them socialist." | Apr 20 19:18 |
| schestowitz__ | " | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | I suspect you would find that Rabbi Michael Lerner, of the two organizations I mentioned, incorporates a progressive outlook in every aspect of his work. | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | As to the socialism, first let's remember that socialism isn't the be-all end-all either. But second, I worry about a certain essentialism that suggests that Jews can't both be Jewish and socialist, or that takes any prejudice as a sign that they aren't 'socialist'. | Apr 20 19:19 |

| schestowitz__ | Like I said, I'm sure there's some wonderful jewish human rights groups, but that doesn't say much about the specific population we were discussing: Zionists in Palestine. | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | Who said Jews can't be socialist? All I said was that the specific action of taking advantage of a crop failure to buy up land on the cheap, then evicting the peasant farmers, probably wouldn't be considered an example of socialism. | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | " | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | "Perhaps I was too harsh. I was involved with antisemitism on another thread at the time. The early Zionists were no worse than anyone else. They were escaping from the horrors of 19th and early 20th century European antisemitic brutality, and following the general nationalist trend that was sweeping Europe at the time. They were not "evil people" with an evil racist agenda. They were seeking freedom and national liberation like | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | everybody else; and escaping some really evil racist Europeans." | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | "Jews can't be socialists? Tell that to Karl Marx." | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | "Same argument goes for the aforementioned nationalists." | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | "And, as far as I can tell, noone actually said Jews can't be socialists. I'm not really sure where any of that is coming from." | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | "Yes Thisisafirstname, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. I think that was the point I was also trying to make with regard to Dr. Roy's post." | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | "As long as we are comparing Ukraine and Israel, It is also true that in ww2, when many Ukrainian nationalists supported the Nazi's, many Palestinian nationalists also supported them for similar reasons. "My enemy's enemy"." | Apr 20 19:21 |
| schestowitz__ | Wait, socialism sometimes get connected with jewry (Marx, kibuzes), so the statement above is odd. Also, Stalin support communism (what he thought it would be) in Palestine through jewry. Of course what became of Israel eventually was almost ultra-capitalist, with US as a key ally. | Apr 20 19:22 |

| schestowitz__ | It may indeed do more harm than good. | Apr 21 17:58 |
| schestowitz__ | The analogy has to compare Gaza--much more so than the West Bank--as a so-called 'open air prison' to concentration camps and the killing of many more Palestinians than Israelis in various forms of conflict to the extermination in (often) gas chambers. | Apr 21 17:58 |
| schestowitz__ | Rhetorically, it must be meant to call attention to the crimes against humanity that Israelis are committing against Palestinians. | Apr 21 17:58 |
| schestowitz__ | But I agree, it can only compound the sense of some Israelis that their opposition is anti-Semitic. This combined with the efforts of some politicians to exploit anti-Israeli sentiment and with the Jewish history already alluded to makes for a situation that is hard to see a way out of. | Apr 21 17:58 |

| schestowitz__ | @David: I don't really care if some Israelis get upset because someone compares their genocide and land-grabs to another genocidal and land-grabbing regime. They should be upset. Arguing in favour of handling them with kids gloves while they do so (in case they get worse) is nonsense. | Apr 21 17:59 |
| schestowitz__ | If any other country acted like they're acting they would immediately be the target of sanctions, trade embargoes, certainly arms embargoes, peacekeeping and possibly the destruction of military assets by UN/NATO bombing.

| schestowitz__ | As to the socialism, first let's remember that socialism isn't the be-all end-all either. But second, I worry about a certain essentialism that suggests that Jews can't both be Jewish and socialist, or that takes any prejudice as a sign that they aren't 'socialist'. | Apr 20 19:18 |

| schestowitz__ | Who said Jews can't be socialist? All I said was that the specific action of taking advantage of a crop failure to buy up land on the cheap, then evicting the peasant farmers, probably wouldn't be considered an example of socialism. | Apr 20 19:19 |

| schestowitz__ | "Perhaps I was too harsh. I was involved with antisemitism on another thread at the time. The early Zionists were no worse than anyone else. They were escaping from the horrors of 19th and early 20th century European antisemitic brutality, and following the general nationalist trend that was sweeping Europe at the time. They were not "evil people" with an evil racist agenda. They were seeking freedom and national liberation like | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | everybody else; and escaping some really evil racist Europeans." | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | "Jews can't be socialists? Tell that to Karl Marx." | Apr 20 19:19 |
| schestowitz__ | "Same argument goes for the aforementioned nationalists." | Apr 20 19:19 |

| schestowitz__ | "Yes Thisisafirstname, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. I think that was the point I was also trying to make with regard to Dr. Roy's post." | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | "As long as we are comparing Ukraine and Israel, It is also true that in ww2, when many Ukrainian nationalists supported the Nazi's, many Palestinian nationalists also supported them for similar reasons. "My enemy's enemy"." | Apr 20 19:20 |
| schestowitz__ | Wait, socialism sometimes get connected with jewry (Marx, kibuzes), so the statement above is odd. Also, Stalin support communism (what he thought it would be) in Palestine through jewry.

| schestowitz__ | It may indeed do more harm than good. | Apr 21 17:58 |
| schestowitz__ | The analogy has to compare Gaza--much more so than the West Bank--as a so-called 'open air prison' to concentration camps and the killing of many more Palestinians than Israelis in various forms of conflict to the extermination in (often) gas chambers. | Apr 21 17:58 |
| schestowitz__ | Rhetorically, it must be meant to call attention to the crimes against humanity that Israelis are committing against Palestinians. | Apr 21 17:58 |
| schestowitz__ | But I agree, it can only compound the sense of some Israelis that their opposition is anti-Semitic. This combined with the efforts of some politicians to exploit anti-Israeli sentiment and with the Jewish history already alluded to makes for a situation that is hard to see a way out of. | Apr 21 17:58 |

| schestowitz__ | @David: I don't really care if some Israelis get upset because someone compares their genocide and land-grabs to another genocidal and land-grabbing regime. They should be upset. Arguing in favour of handling them with kids gloves while they do so (in case they get worse) is nonsense. | Apr 21 17:58 |
| schestowitz__ | If any other country acted like they're acting they would immediately be the target of sanctions, trade embargoes, certainly arms embargoes, peacekeeping and possibly the destruction of military assets by UN/NATO bombing.

| schestowitz__ | Seems to be like you had done to you what I had witnessed before; label a person something like "wife beater" or "child threat", then you can do to them legally -- based on false allegations -- just about anything you want including freezing of bank accounts/assets and warrantless surveillance. I have never heard of Chromebooks getting backdoored, only of Android devices turned - remotely - into listening devices by the FBI (the WSJ | Apr 21 21:53 |
| schestowitz__ | confirmed this) and we know Windows has back doors. What devices do you suspect are being intruded to begin with? And if you found evidence of intrusion, would you be able to present that as a case of ILLEGAL surveillance (given the overzealous policing at Arizona, with the incriminating label that gets you preconditioned to unfavourable treatment from any witness/jury)? | Apr 21 21:53 |
| schestowitz__ | As a side note, was the label ever proven formally in court (whether correctly or not), or is that merely an allegation recorded in some file with no burden of proof on the accuser? | Apr 21 21:53 |

| schestowitz__ | I know that GCC and all the other GNU software is very important, but even I don't remember when was the last time I used GCC. It's like openSSH, everybody uses it but nobody would care to support OpenBSD because you (supposedly) will keep getting openSSH one way or the other, and supporting the OpenBSD project is almost a waste of money in marketing. Not to mention other software that does not help or is against a company's business, | Apr 25 21:19 |

| schestowitz__ | Well, it's easy to support GNU but that does not answer the question. As you pointed out anyone can sign up for a FSF associate membership and this gives GNU a predictable income. The question though, is why a company like Google and other Linux Foundation members would give money to Linux but not GNU. I think that IBM and other companies have actually given money and hardware support to GNU. This new campaign looks like it was | Apr 26 02:04 |
| schestowitz__ | written by Microsoft, which is run by plutocrats with a violent hatred of software freedom. | Apr 26 02:04 |
