The Left is the new Anti Israel???

Reader comment on item: The Left vs. Israel

Submitted by SabreKai (Canada), Jun 7, 2016 at 10:45

Hate to tell you this but there are lots of people of all political affiliations who are no longer buying the state of Israel as the shiny example it is being portrayed as. Most of us support Israel's right to exist, despise what the Arabs are doing but can no longer stomach the methods used by Israel in its never ending expansion.

Isn't odd that when China lays claim to the South China Sea based on 5000 years of history, people get all upset. But when Israel lays claim to all the land it wants based on more ancient history, that's perfectly OK. Why is that?
