The Semitic Puzzle

The Semitic Puzzle 
The anti -Semitic problem is one of the most difficult 
problem I struggle with. There is a duality in my feelings 
 I’m aware of the holocaust and will defend any Jew 
against the onslaught of hate. On the other hand 
I’m painfully aware of the pain of the Palestinian people
who lost their land and what is left is being built on by 
aggressive Jewish settlers and he Israeli state are 
unwilling to interfere to protect Palestine. And for those
who want a Jewish purity this has only one conclusion   
the destruction of the Palestinian people. Should this be 
the only experience drowns from the Shoa----surely not.
But my time is short I wait for the famed Jewish deals.
I know it is there in the offering what is needed is 
A statesman to put the puzzle together.
