So you wouldn't have a problem with someone saying that the Rwandan genocide and the lack of intervention by Western powers was justified? Because it's just politics right?

I find that there are some political positions that are very hard to ignore, mostly because those positions bleed over into other beliefs a person holds. I wasn't saying that I think it's a "personal sin" to support Israel, just that it colors my opinion of a person. If someone waxes golden on apartheid South Africa or the Confederacy, it makes me very uncomfortable because they have, at some level, accepted the bad with the good and bad far outweighs the good.

Israel, as you said, is tricky. Hell, I'm American and I try to keep quiet about my opinion on Israel because most people think anti-Israel=anti-Jewish. I just think the government and a number of its citizens have proven to be incredibly shitty.

I wouldn't have a personal problem with someone saying that the lack of Western intervention in the Rwandan genocide was justified. I disagree, but that's a fundamentally political matter.

And particularly in the case of Israel which is such a god-damned complicated issue. To look at an issue that's as complicated as that, and then to say that anyone who believes one thing or another is guilty of a personal fault, just seems so strange to me. It doesn't seem to match up to the reality of how complex the situation is.

Nah. You should probably keep quiet about your opinion of Israel because, when you voice it, it looks like you're a parrot who has no personal stake in the situation at all -- has probably never stepped foot near Israel, Gaza or the West Bank -- but feel like you're an authority on the moral and political complexities of the conflict, anyway.
