living language truly is endangered.  Hebrew, of course, is native only to
this one tiny strip of land, and happens to be the only language endangered

I don't believe Mr. Yakimoto does understand the European Union, nor Leftist
Intellectuals like for instance myself. There's a widespread feeling in
Europe that the troubles in the Middle East should come to an end through a
true peace, which of course would mean that Israel would abide with
Resolution 242, and that the Arab world would officially recognize Israel as
a legitimate state. It's as simple as that. So it's utter nonsense saying
there's some 'universal prejudice and intense genocidal hatred' against the
state of Israel, endangering Hebrew.
