Frankly, both sides of this discussion are being unnecessarily divisive. There is a Palestine, there is an Israel, the majority of the people in both countries probably just want to get on with their lives. Get over it. As for the facts you put up in this last comment, Abraham, got some links? I'd be interested to see where you get this stuff.
Moving on to the post...you're taking some men from Ash'har Company, admittedly "a deviant, extreme unit at the human level", and trying to extrapolate to say that all Zionists are that way? Inductive reasoning fails, especially when your sample is skewed. Same goes for your reasoning that "Those who support Israel support zionism and therefore support all these other terrible things." I might as well say "those that support Palestine support the awful terrorist bombings in Israel." Except it'd be more true, because Arafat was loved for what he and his thugs did. You try to make a two-dimensional cardboard foe out of Israel. Why? That's certainly not how they actually are.
