Israel Information Center -- Where is your moral outrage

by Alyza

I have received a large number of emails from people I know personally who have expressed their moral outrage about the destruction of PA computers by Israel or the passing of a law that would allow a Jewish organization to use Jewish donations from overseas for the express purpose of building housing for Jews in Israel (and, yes, to the exclusion of Arabs since the donations that subsidize the housing were for the express purpose of building housing for Jews).

I ask the following questions at those who are so outraged by these and other similar issues:

On the contrary, those who decry the destruction of computers and houses used to smuggle in arms are morally outraged that any Jew lives in land that they consider the dominion of the "Palestinians", even when it was owned by Jews before 1948 or purchased by Jews after 1967, or owned by the goverment. I have heard your moral outrage... Arabs must be allowed to live in houses build with Jewish donations, but Jews must vacate houses built buy Jews on land owned by Jews, because after all, that land should be owned by the "Palestinians" and is an obstacle for peace. This sort of double standard is a real moral outrage, but will those who hold such opinions every see this? I will not hold my breath
