I hit the third rail. You cannot criticize Israel in this country and survive.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am often critical of Israel's policies when in the country, but then feel defensive of them when overseas.
You have to show Israel that it's not going to be forced to do things it doesn't want to do and can't do.
I am not a supporter of Israel's military policy, let alone any kind of Zionist.
I'm always in favor of Israel responding strongly when it's threatened.
I am a Zionist, an ardent supporter of Israel, its defender when I deem Israel to be right and its critic when I deem it to be wrong.
One can criticize the Israeli government, but it is not fair to judge the people of Israel.
To come and say about me that I'm destroying Israel, that I hate Israel, that's a bit insulting.
I'm very much tied to the state of Israel, but I am against their policy of settlements in Palestine.
I am not against Israel, I am against Zionists.
I have absolute respect for Israel and people in Israel who are critical of their own country.
