Chris Neville-Smith: And which Ednet poster used a story on a Nazi website again?

I explained already, but your cheap jibe means I must explain once more.

I quoted a passage from a communist writer who in turn quoted Israeli Jewish academic George Tamarin's research when I couldn't find a direct quote of that research which I had read about on Baruch Kimmerling's website. (There was only a brief reference to it), and that was the reason why I lazily cut and pasted that.

You should take note that George R. Tamarin is not a neo-nazi, he is a social psychologist, and also you should also take note that Baruch Kimmerling, also not a neo-nazi, but a valued Post-Zionist scholar, refer to that same report.

If you want to read Dr. Tamarin's sociolgical study: The Israeli Dilemma: Essays on a Warfare State (Rotterdam: Rotterdam University Press, 1973) you should go and find it in your library!

And so, to get back to the original point, which no amount of 'Campus Watch' smear tactics can overcome in order to avoid discussing that point about Israeli Education which I was making at the time:

Baruch Kimmerling writes: "In the middle of the 1960's, Dr. George Tamarin[13] pointed to one of the results of Bible studies in the state schools in Israel. Tamarin's findings show the creation of radical Jewish ethnocentrism amongst the youth, due, he felt, to non-critical study of the Bible and to special projects of the educational system to provide "Jewish consciousness. Tamarin, a social psychologist, drew his conclusions from the approach of Piaget, which relates to the development of moral judgement at different stages of maturation. He took a chapter from the Bible, which talks of the conquest of the land by Joshua bin Nun by means of the aforementioned practices. These practices, which were intended for the conquest of the land by the Jewish tribes, received the full approval of most of the students ("that was the accepted behavior at that time"), and barely received any moral condemnation. In contrast, the very same actions, when switched to the context of the building of the ancient Chinese empire, and attributed to a Chinese warrior, were defined by most of the students as genocide, though these actions supposedly occurred at the same historical time."

You and anyone here who is interested in the conflict in Israel-Palestine really should read Kimmerling's work.

I recommend you start with his Debates on Zionism: http://pluto.mscc.huji.ac.il/~mskimmer/zion.htm
