Subject: The Zionist Double-Standard

Last week I wrote about an act of terrorism by the Haganah in which many jews
were killed. Some time ago, I wrote about several acts of terrorism by the
Haganah and the Irgun and the Stern in which many Arab civilians died.
In both cases, there were no shouts of "liar, liar", no cries of 
anti-semitism, just the good old "Collective Silence Treatment".
  
What does this silence mean? Why can't the zionists and other supporters of 
Israel out there condemn zionist terrorism the same way that they condemn
Palestinian terrorism? Isn't Israel democratic and don't democratic nations
pride themselves in their capacity to accept real criticism?
