'A Well-Intentioned Mistake'
After reading the latest from Richard Cohen, we have to wonder what the Washington Post columnist has been smoking:
The greatest mistake Israel could make at the moment is to forget that Israel itself is a mistake. It is an honest mistake, a well-intentioned mistake, a mistake for which no one is culpable, but the idea of creating a nation of European Jews in an area of Arab Muslims (and some Christians) has produced a century of warfare and terrorism of the sort we are seeing now. Israel fights Hezbollah in the north and Hamas in the south, but its most formidable enemy is history itself.

The irony is that when Jews lived in Europe, they were not thought of as Europeans. In Europe, we were hated for being "orientals," and "swarthy Semites." In oriental, Semitic lands, we are hated for being European colonialists. Proving once again that there is no "reason" for Jew hatred, because Jew hatred is impervious to reason.
