					<description><![CDATA[&quot;You know, if youâ€<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />re going to accuse Israel of losing its democratic values, you really need to include examples of government oppression, laws restricting rights, and officials cracking down on individual freedoms.&quot;

How about this one -- the Israeli government made it illegal for people of a given ethnicity to build and live on land they had legally purchased, all because people of another ethnicity did not want them living there. The government went so far as to investigate sealing one of these buildings. And the government used armed troops to evacuate thousands of these people, confiscating their properties and businesses, and locking their personal possessions in trailers where the goods were ruined by mold, all the while throwing road block after road block in the way of promised compensation.

Of course, all of that is okay because (can you say Bensky Corrollary?) the government did it to Jews, not to Arabs. I&#039;m waiting for the Monitor, the Masorti movement, Israel&#039;s Reform Movement (sorry, I forget the offical name) and Rabbis for Human Rights to protest. I&#039;m also waiting for the Cubs to win the world series.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Has anyone else wondered about the employee health plan at the Christian Science Monitor?  After all, does not &quot;Christian Science&quot; eschew Western medical advances and push &quot;faith healers&quot; in their place?  Are CSM employees even allowed health care plans?  And, if they are, doesn&#039;t that deligitimatize the very basis for the CSM?

Now, since Israeli JEWISH Medical Doctors are in the forefront of those Western medical advances, is not the &quot;Christian Science&quot; Monitor pushing its&#039; own biased RELIGIOUS viewpoint?

There is a blog I visit regularly that sometimes asks: &quot;What time is it?&quot; and answers &quot;Israeli Double Standard Time!&quot;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[BTW, how can you defend Israel&#039;s commitment to religious freedom when &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.presstv.ir/detail/158351.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the Mossad&lt;/a&gt; was behind the blasts in the Egyptian church? I would assume that an Iranian &quot;news&quot; service would be accurate? Don&#039;t you agree?]]></description>
