what they've revealed.
B'tselem doesn't incite hatred. Nor do they advocate anything that would harm Israel or Israelis.
For that matter, nothing in the status quo on security is GOOD for Israel and Israelis.
What you are trying to do is obvious, shira:
You want everyone to the left of Kadima(and probably to the left of the right-wing of Kadima at that) to be labeled "anti-Israel".
Never mind that anathemizing everyone you want anathemized would leave Netanyahu completely unaccountable, since no group you approve of disagrees with him on any major issues and Kadima will never be popular as a party again.
Undoubtedly, you want Zionist Union, Meretz, and Peace Now anathemized as well.
