Responding to my submission, Farzin Mokhtarian states

Responding to Bill Tanenbaum he states

> I don't know whether it is Israel's intention that those arms be

However, in an earlier article he said

> Well, leaders of Israel don't seem to be among those "outraged

> trains Arab terrorists.

and

> I think I understand.  Israel can not sympathize with those who
> engage in terrorism.  ** That's why they fuel their terrorism. **
[emphasis mine].

So it appears the Farzin either can't make up his mind about Israel
"fueling" terrorism, or he can't be straight with net.politics readers
on the matter.
