GST certainly has an agenda, but i wouldnt put him in the same category as the other two.

I oppose atrocities. I believe in the rule of law. That does not make me anti-Israeli or racist -- I oppose Israeli use of US taxpayer money to commit war crimes.

So when I see this constant, irrational, if not outright racist, anti-Israel bias, such as we commonly see displayed by folks like Sly, Geode, GST and so many others, I just kinda naturally feel like it's difficult to criticize Israel for anything they've done.. Because when people of their ilk are all given to collectively focus upon, and demonize, a particular entity/idea, it's almost a given that they are trying to cover up for the atrocities of one of their "fellow travelers".

To say that I agree would be an understatement. Most of the time I'm wondering what galaxy these guys are posting from. While I don't doubt that some of the Israel bashers are just naive and inexperienced I can't help but agree with you that some posters here have a clear agenda. I mean, just how serious am I supposed to take these nuts that think (as is apparent by their posts) that Iran and Syria can do no wrong and Israel and the US can do no right.
