Farzin Mokhtarian ------------------------------ The antecedent statement was about Egypt receiving aid from the US, and the US keeping Israeli troops out of Cairo in 1973. Since the peace treaty between them was ratified in 1978, Israel has done nothing to endanger Egypt, except send occasionally obnoxious tourists. The US has not had to defend Egypt against anyone except the Libyans. Farzin, if you have evidence that the Libyans are Israeli agents, show it. This is the honesty one gets from a man who has "trouble with his soul?" I shouldn't wonder.

Can you say "dipshit hypocrisy?" > -- > Oded Feingold MIT AI Lab. 545 Tech Square Cambridge, Mass. 02139 Feingold's technique of ACCUSING anyone who does not agree with his pro-israeli views of being a LIAR is "dipshit hypocrisy". He's already done twice. He accused me of being a liar because I referenced an article written by a military analyst in a french paper, concluding that the US did actively help Israel in its raid on Tunis. Since he seems to appreciate facts as opposed to lies, here are some facts: 1) You can buy that paper for $3.00, translate the article yourself and protest or write to that large circulation french paper Le Monde. The author of the article is a director of a military think tank in France, and is NOT anti-israeli. 2) Neither the US, nor Israel denied the information that the US navy refueled the jewish war jets in their attack on Tunis. This information is accepted as an axiom in Arab countries; it is infered as highly probable in European countries. 3) Since you appraise so much US support to Israel, without which, Israel could not exist MILITARILY nor ECONOMICALLY (this is also a FACT), I do not understand why you are so insensed by the information concerning the refueling of israeli jets. You should applaud it!!!

By the way, what is a "jewish war jet"? I never knew aircraft to profess any religion. I suppose it is any jet whose mother was Jewish. I find this choice of words revealing. It puts quite a damper on the "I only dislike Zionists" canard. > 3) Since you appraise [sic] so much US support to Israel, without which, > Israel could not exist MILITARILY nor ECONOMICALLY (this is also a > FACT), I do not understand why you are so insensed by the > information concerning the refueling of israeli jets.

One reason that certain parties insist this refueling took place is to denigrate the image of Israel as military capable of such an act. Obviously friends of Israel would not applaud this. Would you applaud charges that the Cardinals had bribed the World Series umpires just because you were a Cardinals' fan???!! andy lazarus
