Thank you for posting an eye-opening and a very interesting article by Grace Halsell.
Just in case you didn't know already, there are dedicated individuals on this thread and elsewhere that endeavor to discourage the posting of messages that, in their opinion, are pro-Palestinian or anti-U.S or critical of Israel.
In the days immediately following 9/11, I posted a number of messages which, unfortunately for me, were misconstrued by some folks (who thought they always knew things better than others) to be anti-U.S. and/or anti-Israel and pro-Arabs. Of course, these folks could not realize at that time that their hysteria had more than distorted their perception of reality. Suddenly I was considered a very dangerous person, and a certain witch put me on the top of her "list" of nogoodniks. (This, of course, was a self-serving "threat" to please the hearts of all and sundry save those on her list. But, in her hysteria, she didn't realize she was violating an SI rule.)
Shortly after that, some self-styled "shrink" attempted to ridicule me, and he questioned my sanity and declared that I needed help. Apparently he thought I would be so humiliated that I would slink away in silence for good. Well, that shrink's mission to get me off SI failed miserably!!!
If you would continue posting more articles deemed to be pro-Palestinian or anti-U.S. or critical of Israel, I am sure your sanity will be questioned and you will be told you posted such stuff only because you were trying to compensate for your "inferiority complex" (whatever that might mean).
Already I see one "Kohn" (Kohn is a variant of the Jewish name Cohen) takes exception to the message you posted.
May I urge you to keep on posting. Just ignore the efforts of self-serving buzzards to "sanitize" this GPM thread: all they want is for everyone to act like ostriches hiding their heads 'neath the desert sand or to be singing a thousand halleluyahs and hosanas in unison forever and ever. |
