[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Less than a week has passed since this POS pile of protoplasmic garbage arrived on our radar, and we’re already defending the things Stuey said. “He wasn’t ALL wrong!”

Never change, trope and anti-semitism thought police.[/quote]It's unpleasant to think about, but those passages are being used to justify forcing rape victims to marry their rapists, today![/quote]

Great. Rape is a criminal abomination that nobody should ever endure, much less be forced to re-live through some demented interpretation of a book of fairytales. I think everyone should agree on that, and those who don’t shouldn’t be allowed within 100 yards of a political gathering of any kind.

Back to business, what about the effort to chip away at the monument of depravity that Stu erected on 5th Ave. or wherever TF he shot his shot?

what about the effort to chip away what Susan said? 
A crazy old guy with islamaphobic tendencies spewed his hate on a street vendor, then was fired and arrested. What else is there? What are you asking? I live in Rockville, once every few months someone leaves a crazy letter in every mailbox in my neighborhood with a bunch of antisemitic content. There is a truck driving around in Twinbrook with “by now most of my children hate Jews” sign. What do you want here? Acknowledgement that Stu is vile? No one denies it. Lots of coke people in the world. [/quote]

Well, even though I have no connection to your experiences, I’m nevertheless very sorry to read of them. Awful. Nobody should be confronted with that. If speaking out against that or snapping my fingers made those experiences go away, I wouldn’t hesitate to do so.

But that’s the problem, and that’s what I’m asking of you.

What you’re describing happens 100x over in places like the West Bank, where indigenous people are terrorized daily by settlers.

Why can I find and express sympathy for your experiences in Rockville, MD, but you cannot seem to be able to find or express sympathy for what innocent Palestinians (not Hamas, not those unwilling to live in peace) endure over and over and over again in the Middle East, most of it explicitly sanctioned by the State of Israel?

Stu is an embodiment of the hubristic view of the world that too many supporters of the State of Israel suffer under. This isn’t about Jews, or hatred of Jews, or wishing that the State of Israel ceased to exist.

This inability to disentangle one’s “Jewish-ness” from the State of Israel is at the root of, probably, 90% of the disagreements that exist here and elsewhere. Nobody serious is for annihilating any group of people. But what worries me is that too many people who support the actions of the State of Israel have bought into the fiction that one group is intrinsically better than the other.[/quote]

Cool, do the Hamas charter next. [/quote]

I’m not Palestinian, I’m not a Muslim, I don’t support Hamas. I’m not “doing” the Hamas charter (or the Likud foundational platform) next.

What’s your point? Conceding the point that the State of Israel is “evil” because Hamas is also “evil”? Or the State of Israel only resorts to “evil” because Hamas forced its hand by being “evil” first?

I’m not even going to trouble your mind with the inconvenient fact that Bibi will be remembered as the architect of Hamas.

Is that all you’ve got?[/quote]Did you just write that 'Bibi will be remembered as the architect of Hamas'? You've just exposed yourself as a longterm hater.

Palestinians suffer under Hamas, and you have to blame that on someone else? You and the others blaming jews are more interested in passing blame than actually helping the Palestinians. Expand that to include Egypt and the rest of the islamic world. They've never been anything but a pawn, now used to drum up anti-semitism. [/quote]
