That is exactly why they were given that land. Don't get me wrong, what happened to the Jews was horrible, and I don't blame the Jews for what is happening over there now. But, like what you said, they're (Israeli government) doing things to people that was done to their own people.
As soon as school settles down for me for the summer, I will definately check that book out. My ex was VERY big into Chomsky.
