Of course AW, the link you provide is funded by Israeli interests. I note use of the block alphabet and the first language other than English is Hebrew. It is a selective cull of quotes and stories designed to put the Arabs in a bad light. Are you sure that the translations are accurate?

There are indeed Arab extremists, but there are likewise Israeli ones. I used to read Ha'aretz and the Jerusalem Post. The Jerusalem Post is the paper which turned me against Israel. It is hard line anti-Arab, pro settler, pro Sharon and his ilk. The letters to the editor frightened me with talk of 'transfer' of Arabs from the West Bank at gunpoint (ethnic cleansing), annexation of over half of Jordan's inhabited area, mass castration of Arabs who didn't leave Israel when ordered etc etc. There was no talk of moderation or compromise, just death and destruction. The editorials were so racist that they would not be published in this country for fear of breaking laws on incitement.
