Or is it only a Jewish graveyard that sets you off? ... we were discussing primitive cultural beliefs, instilled religious make believe that is exemplified by these burial practices. The idea of divine chosenness divides peoples from each other and should be soundly rejected, not reinterpreted to please morons like yourself. That your pea brain cannot comprehend a critique of such obvious human created dogma that has nothing to do with the wishes of any supernatural agent, but only some tribal fantasy nonsense.

Pointing to the folly that someone being buried in a particular special place makes it more likely they should be 1rst in line for some some physical/spiritual reincarnation, is not antisemetic but pointing out the obvious immaturity of the thought process. You were free not agree, then debate but you chose a remark that only reveals how little high ground you have to stand on.

Along the lines of remembrance with gardens , a Palestinian mother remembers a son in garden of Israeli teargas canisters - video
theguardian.com

Does this make me an antisemite, you ignorant sanctimonious useless old goat?

No, not at all, but an open mind yes. It also fits right in with the spirit of remembrance with gardens, as opposed to that wasted selfish "we are the only saved ones", religious indoctrinated nonsense. We look at the suffering on both sides, perhaps just a little more Christian than you?

Every Friday for the last eight years, residents of Bil'in in the West Bank protest against Israeli settlements on the Palestinian villagers' land. In April 2009 one protester, Bassem Ibrahim Abu Rahma, was killed by a teargas grenade. He is remembered in Bil'in by a garden of flowers planted in used teargas canisters thrown at demonstrators by Israeli soldiers.
