Mr Kohn - Once again, you are jumping to conclusions, and once again I am in a position to explain myself to you. Except that this time I won't. I will guide you in finding out for yourself where your logic has gone wrong. "Don't give fish to a starving man, teach him to fish", and all that....

Now, Rollcast has accused me of applying double standards to the US. I said I don't. I said the standards I apply to, or if you will, the values I expect from, the US are the highest I know because the US is the leader of the free world and the home of democracy and freedom.

if you don't apply the same exact standard to let us say Syria, then you are applying a double standard. If you apply a similar standard to Israel, and another lesser standard for Palestinians, then you are applying a double standard.

Now have I said anywhere anything about applying any other standards to Syria? Nope. To Israel? Nope. Or to another country? Nope.

So what on earth are you talking about, man?
