What a view you'd like to present of your critics, tsk tsk ... for starters, i don't shed tears, passionate or otherwise ... man's inhumanity to man has been quite extensive and near universal over the ages, shedders of tears would have cried such a river by now that they'd have drowned in it ... no, it's about seeing situations as they are, rather than how partisan propagandists would like us to see them

And especially, it's about you, Nadine ... eight hundreds thousands egyptian troops in the Sinai, pfffft, lol ... though generally you do try to refrain from easily disproven falsehoods, i will give you that, you tend to just gently fudge the numbers while you use fallacious logic, skip inconvenient facts, and cite irrelevant points, in the hope that your readers won't know, or won't care to admit they know, the actual situation

Which is, lest we forget the context, that zionists have crossed the sea to conquer arab land, leaving you with the chore of trying to justify their continuing occupation to those SIers who happen to drift by this corner .... and you do fine at it, really, best that could possibly be done in the circumstances, such single-minded devotion to duty, hammering away time after time at the evil-indigenous theme ... to be admired, really, such dedication .... it's just that once in a while, there is something about it that stimulates in me the puke-or-post reflex

Nothing to do with 'the Jews' ... a group which includes, as you will be well aware, quite a number of individuals who oppose zionism, there have been many jewish Thoreaus and Websters, to balance in part the effects of the Clays and Calhouns ... it wasn't 'the jews' who invented that 'land without a people' fiction, it was a single zionist individual who had never been to Palestine and was making stuff up out of his head .... hey, too bad he's dead, you could have maybe got him to confirm that there were eight millions egyptians in the Sinai, and perhaps also have him assist you in working that into a justification for your Excludostaat

So now you've done your standard accusation of anti-semitism, what's next, hmmm .... ever think of changing the pace? ... or, ahem, the location ... how about you try justifying chinese hegemony over Tibet, and/or over Formosa, and i'll take the locals' side ... granted the natives there are not arab, but they are still indigenous, and therefore scum to be bulldozed aside, right?

"It isn't like you actually care about the Ugandans anymore than you care for the Palestinians. It's only that you don't like the Jews. Whatever they do, they are held to a standard of perfection, with all mitigating circumstances forgotten totally.
The proof is, there isn't one other case where such a standard is applied. Nor do you give a tinker's dam about Arab suffering anywhere else."

Thats why i used the david duke analogy in what will be my one post to him. Sometimes i think he believes his own crapenstadt that he is somehow a fair alternate observer of a difficutlt situation. Sometimes i think he takes it all out on what he considers the last western colonizer, israel. And sometimes I think he is just like david duke hiding his racism behind a more acceptable face(s). In any case, it doesnt matter to me anymore. You cant convince him that there is even a minute chance that he is wrong or not fair and whether he is just another Leon or something far worse becomes at some point not worthy of consideration. mike
