So, to better understand your points here, are you saying that we should choose sides based on the number of nobel prize winners one culture has over the other? Or how they respond to catastrophe? Or how a percentage of the population chooses to act?

Do arabs have a righteous beef as far as blaming other for the plight of some of their citizens? Perhaps you should read your history books before you answer.

Beyond any of that, why should we "choose" if we are going to side with Jew or Arab? I dont side with either. My point is that US policy has been unfair toward Arabs and has been a little too Pro Israel. But that doesnt mean im "anti israel" and it doesnt mean im "pro arab". Why do we have to be labeled for having an opinion?
