You know, 14 people have Cyprian on Ignore, and he is banned from 3 threads. I do not know this person at all, and find his rants indefensible morally, but you would think that if feelings were so strong against his posts, more threads would ban him. In clicking on his name, it looks like he posts quite a few places. Why is he not universally banned? I suspect that he is careful not to go over the line into overt hate speech and racial slurs. It is generally within the bounds to discuss Jews and blacks and the Bible generally. He is not the first to suggest that the pro-Israel lobby is very strong in America. Unfortunately there is usually some tiny bit of something generally true in stereotypes that bigots take and run with.
