Honestly, I’ve covered this ground a dozen times.

Hinderaker leaves out context; ignores subtleties… and most of all, feels Israel has never been in the wrong. Ever.

There is no reasoning with anyone who holds that view.

And I don’t care to discuss competing religious-like zealotry… when each zealot’s side… is at war.

With each other.

There is scant point in doing so — until both sides grow completely bone-weary of the dying – and the killing.

So sure John — call for “eradication”. You are a frail old man, safe in your overstuffed leather arm chair, tonight in bucolic ex-urban Minnesota.

You sip your Manhattan and pontificate, fecklessly… because no one you love — let alone are related to, by blood is in harm’s way.

It’s easy to be an insufferable blowhard — — when you’re like old John. A world away from it all.

Out.
