Reply #98: The head Rabbis have not endorsed Lior...

The state certainly does not. And if Israel controlled the media as you once asserted, they're doing a terribly piss poor job controlling Haaretz from condemning Lior's disgusting incitement. Israel's amazing freedom of expression tends to make it difficult for Israel to be as nasty as Hamas and the PLO and get away with it.

It's disturbing you don't see a problem with the ISM.

Check out the pics from the last link.

You still support the ISM, the FreeGaza Movement, and BDS - correct? Each demonizes, delegitimizes, supports and incites violence/terror. I'm assuming you still do since you've never once written that you have a problem with them and you've supported them in the past.

That said, where do you get off showing disgust at people like Lior who incite violence and bigotry?

Pot/Kettle, correct?

=========

Where do I demonize Palestinians? Show me please. Comparing a society run by Hamas and the PLO to that of the Nazis is not demonizing Palestinians, but rather the sick and disgusting leadership in charge ruining Palestine. The 24/7 non-stop hate rhetoric pushed in Hamas/PLO run schools, mosques, government institutions, and media is arguably worse than Nazi propaganda. Now that I think of it, I can't remember ever seeing you criticize Hamas and the PLO for their incitement and disgusting bigotry. You evade the issue completely. Can I assume by your silence you don't have a big problem with any of that?

Lastly, you have yet to show how Fatah is to the left of Likud. Signing a piece of paper in 1993, in stark contrast to their words and deeds ever since, doesn't prove they're left of Likud or liberal/progressive in any way. Is that really all you have? Again, I have no problem agreeing with you if you could find some evidence that they are in some way leftwing, liberal, or progressive. You don't get to lecture others about being bigoted vs. Palestinians when you cannot find one thing positive, liberal, or progressive about a Palestine run by Hamas and the PLO. Maybe the reason you can't name anything is the same reason I cannot. Because there's nothing liberal/progressive about it. Now has is THAT demonization? I get the impression if the GOI acted exactly like Hamas/PLO, you wouldn't have anything positive to say about them either.
