If you recognize that the Palestinian leadership is more evil than Israel's, & thus presumably that their acts are more evil, why do you persist in taking their side against the Israelis?

Trade's Saruman/Sauron analogy is flawed. A better analogy might be Denethor/Sauron.

Morgil Blackhope
I don't remeber Denethor sending his troops to murder defenceless civilians and destroy their houses. That sounds more like something Sauron or Saruman might have done.

Right. Which is why Saruman is not a good analog to Israel. ;-)

Actually, Galadriel might be a good analog: she laid bare the pits of Dol Guldur, just as Israel has laid bare the pits of the terrorists in the West Bank
