We reserve the right to delete comments, but the failure to delete any particular comment should not be interpreted as an endorsement thereof.
In general, we expect comments to be relevant to the story, or to a prior comment that is relevant; and we expect some minimal level of civility. Defining that line is inherently subjective, so try to stay clear of insulting remarks. If you respond to a comment that is later deleted, we may take your response with it. Deleting your comment isn't a personal knock on you, so don't take it as such.
We allow a variety of ways for commenters to identify themselves; those who choose not to do so should take extra care. Absent any prior context in which they may be understood, ironic comments may be misinterpreted. Once you've earned a reputation for contributing to a conversation, we are likely to be more tolerant in those gray areas, as we'll understand where you're coming from.
If you monitor the news agencies and statements of the "international community", the response would be akin to the proposal of a toxic-waste-dump(i.e.,"Not-In-My-Back-Yard").

Of course - given that Vermont is such a Deeply Blue State - I think we can already guess how far THAT bit of Israel-support would go.

For another comparison consider this: Put a matchbox down on the 50-yard line of a football field. That matchbox, compared to the field, is roughly the equivalent of the size of Israel vs. the size of the Arab-ruled world (Europe and Britain not included). Is there no room in all of that space for a few members of a made-up nationality (i.e. "Palestinians")? This crap gives me headaches. Oyster out.
