If this is how it is going to be...
I don't have time for this, and neither do you.

I just went through a lengthy post in response to an earlier post.
I got cut of, by Bellsouth, no less than five times and had to re-up.

When I finally got back and hit "pOst" to general forum, my post was rejected. I used no profanity, and I did not insult any person participating.

I did not insult anyone, actually. If I can't post on Democraticunderground, because I have questions about our support of Israel, then I guess all is lost.

Thank you, and good night.

1. Most Israeli/Palestinian threads go to the foreign affairs forum
I think you can fight it out as much as you want down there.

2. Unconditional support for Israeli govt is policy of Dems and Repubs

So naturally there would be a certain sensitivity, since to criticize, for example, the Policy of Starvation or the Torture Lottery, or question whether it is the best use of the taxpayers' money, or spread articles about the 22% of Israeli children who don't have enough to eat, is not only opposing the official policy of the US government, but of both Republican and Democratic parties.

5. Thank you, as well
Although I do not comprehend the "torture lottery," or the "policy of starvation," as such, thank you for the response. At least I know this post got through.

7. You can read Amnesty Intl and HRW, as well as UN reports etc

to find out more about both the Policy of Starvation and the Torture Lottery, as well as other crimes against humanity paid for by American taxpayers and supported by American business and politicians.

6. Thank you.
And, I do not know what a DSL is, and I guess it doesn't
matter.

I really put heart and soul into that post that was not
allowed to be sent, and when sent, posted.  I will do it at
some later time, I guess.  

But thanks.

All questions regarding DU policy should be posted in the "Ask the Administrators" forum.

Thank you
