I came here since I always found Chaim and JTF exhilarating, even though I didn't agree with everything he said.
A few years ago, I was on a democratic listserv where all the posters did was bash Israel and Zionism and refer to me as a "violent racist", many of these posters being Jews! I've never come across such disgusting revolting filth in my life. I credit them with pushing me farther to the right on Israel more than anything! Although I'm frequently attacked for being too liberal from many posters on this site, I find it a lot more refreshing to be on a forum like this where I know that everyone on here are at least Israel's allies and damned proud of it!
I used to believe in the peace process. But after the repeated failures, especially the failed Camp David Accords followed by the second intifada in 2000, I changed my mind and realized that there's no point in having a peace process if it's not going to lead to a peace result.
I continue to come here because it's intellectually stimulating, it can be humorous at times, and it's a lot of fun debating and discussing all the different issues on here.
