i keep getting baited to say bad things about Jews, Israel, or both.  I have nothing to say.  “Why do Jews in Israel love Trump? Why are they sucking up to them?”  “How could you possibly believe in the bible as a source of the jewish claim on Israel?”  “When are you going to leave that terrible country?”  An old friend assumes that I believe that Israeli has committed genocide, quotes numbers to me, and waits for me to denounce the country.  I say, let’s wait and see what can be repaired.  let’s see how much damage has been done to us.  let’s be kind to ourselves as well as the others and try to make things better.  I don’t believe we should be bashing ourselves on the head when everyone else is doing it for us.  And really think we should be helping each other rather than blaming.  so there.
