Rice recently compared the plight of Palestinians to American blacks in the 60's. That's strange, I don't recall black people in the 60's sending suicide bombers to slaugher innocent people. In fact, one of the hallmarks of Martin Luther King's civil rights movement was its peaceful civil disobedience.
Needless to say, the fact that American blacks were victims of violence andRice's statements are insulting both to Israelis and to African-Americans. I think the President needs to ask her to resign.
hate, while Palestinians are its proficient practitioners, seems to have escaped
the secretary of state's attention.
Moreover, Rice's comparison between Israeli security measures and America's
Jim Crow laws is both intellectually dishonest and morally obscene.
There is no similarity whatsoever between Israel establishing a checkpoint
aimed at catching Palestinian suicide bombers and the state of Georgia's 1960s
era prohibition against serving blacks and whites in the same restaurant (Jerusalem Post, JihadWatch).
