Kind of hard to tell when you're speaking as a Jew in the same paragraph but you can transpose my comment to whoever thinks that ought to be part of a...

Brilliant cinematography.

I'm at a total loss what "tirades" I have brought here but OK. I've consistently repeated that what he brings up is irrelevant because there's no excu...

ah so you admit you're a racist then. OK, that's solved then, you're no longer worth my time. Buh-bye!
June 02, 2021 at 16:17
Nothing you said is a justification for how Palestinians are currently treated. Israel does not get to play the victim card in a situation where it is...
June 02, 2021 at 16:16
It's funny how you think this has anything to do with anything. You're the only one that thinks my skin-colour, religion or ethnicity has any relevanc...
June 02, 2021 at 14:59
Maybe get a life? But in any case, nothing, absolutely nothing, that you have mentioned justifies Israel's treatment of the Palestinians. The religiou...
June 02, 2021 at 14:55
God, next to being uncritical you're also poorly informed. You're referring to the Camp David Summit and Israel never offered the 1967 borders at all....

Football is boring as shit anyways and the commercialisation has made twats of most players.
June 02, 2021 at 11:26
Interesting. The "prima facie" is a disclaimer on their evidence though and after the study that said it couldn't have been engineered I'm going to sa...
June 01, 2021 at 17:58
yawn. You can keep trying to move the goal posts but in the end you basically don't have an argument why what Israel is doing is justified. It's not a...
June 01, 2021 at 17:43
It's not about framing. Nothing about framing changes the moral responsibility of Israel, and it chooses to oppress, settle and annex. Nothing about t...
June 01, 2021 at 16:56
No, this is not the issue. The contributory negligence or guilt of other parties does not excuse Israeli war crimes.
June 01, 2021 at 14:14
Yes, you seem to vascillate between reasonableness and defending the indefensible. The only reason you bring up Hamas is as a red herring in this thre...

The only person here entirely outside of the overton window is the only guy you seem to agree with. ... Except Iraq, Afghanistan, Kurds, Libya, Egypt ...
June 01, 2021 at 12:05
I think you should name names here. Who here has argued that "Jews should be in perpetual diaspora" or that "the very idea of a Jewish homeland is rac...
June 01, 2021 at 09:21
So based on the available evidence at this point we have no evidence of either case (lab released or natural spreading) being true but we have a) disc...

As if being gay stops you from having regressive views on Palestinians or your voting pattern has to conform with what you actually believe. Your view...

Ah, another right wing prejudiced poster complaining about quality because not enough people agree with him. Whatever snowflake.
May 30, 2021 at 06:10
Assume away.
May 28, 2021 at 18:35
Yes, I've noticed you have nothing of interest to add in this discussion. Stop mentioning me in your posts.
May 28, 2021 at 18:20
and let's not forget what that AI report said about the IDF: More than 600 Palestinian children have been killed and thousands have been injured by th...
May 28, 2021 at 18:18
Except of course that linking a photo of a baby with a fake bomb vest as an example of these child suicide bombers is a deliberate misrepresentation. ...
May 28, 2021 at 18:13
Yeah, you're not paying attention.
May 28, 2021 at 17:38
Your post is just a blurb with no relationship to anything anyone posted. As far as evidence go, there's plenty available without resorting to propaga...
May 28, 2021 at 17:38
You haven't been paying attention if you bring up the moral equivalence argument again. The thread title is entirely accurate.
May 28, 2021 at 17:05
LOL. An IDF website. You sad pathetic piece of shit. At least@"BitconnectCarlos" makes an honest attempt.
May 28, 2021 at 16:27
Also, pretty terrible in every other way.
May 28, 2021 at 14:38
I'm not an antinatalist, I just like making fun of the theory. But from my point of view they'd be running into a grave I suppose. Or an oven. Depends...

Either you're a girl or your wife/girlfriend/mom is really bossy.

Ooh well played. "There's too many things to respond to so I'll just cherrypick one, decontextualise it from all the other examples of apartheid laws"...
May 28, 2021 at 12:56
There's nothing wrong with your definition but it's not how many people use those words. See for instance Merriam Webster on racism : A belief that ra...
May 28, 2021 at 12:35
Makes sense. I suppose this broadening of the meaning of the term is likely a reaction to affirmative action being argued as being racism as well. In ...

Does that necessarily apply to what she would say behind closed doors?
May 28, 2021 at 07:00
He's been surprising on several fronts. He might be here too. Depends also on his advisors and possibly the VP, I think.

Into what? Hell?

If you know who she is, that's all its meant. As an antinatalist I can only applaud their courage.

Breonna Taylor.

Also, you do realise the right of return is a human right? So you want to deny Palestinians human rights because it would be a logistical nightmare? I...

May 27, 2021 at 12:42
This is getting tiresome. First, I reject Israel has a right to defend itself as long as it occupies, oppresses and annexes land. Currently, the Nethe...
May 27, 2021 at 12:05
No, I don't agree. It's quite clear the 1967 borders are acceptable to a majority of Palestinians, even Hamas hardliners, which already includes plent...
