[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reality: Jeff has stated outright he’s sympathetic to the Palestinian cause so I don’t think there needs to be guesswork there. He doesn’t see his words as anti-Semitic. Do I think he has blinders on? Yes but I think that of many leftists - idealism to the point that it ‘breaks’ their brains.  I do think the statement that led up to Jeff being called an anti-Semite were shocking, especially in regards to Shani Louk. He feels he was adding logic to an atrocious situation, but the visual of seeing that poor girl being paraded around in the state she was in, the torturous calls to her parents, etc, left no need for explanation by anyone. Trying to make that less heinous was not possible.[/quote]

Did he defend her murder?[/quote]

No, of course not. I haven't responded to this thread because I don't feel there is anything to be gained from debating the topic. People are free to have whatever opinions they want to have about me. All of my posts are under my name and everyone can read them for themselves and come to whatever conclusion they want. But, with regard to this specific topic of Shani Louk, I think that her murder was horrifying and that there are no circumstances that could justify it. Indeed, the reality of what happened to her is terrible enough that it needs no embellishment. I questioned some of the allegations that posters were repeatedly making with regard to her treatment because the claims were not supported by any evidence of which I was aware. In two out of the three specific claims that I questioned, basically everyone agreed that there was no factual support. The third was really a question of interpretation and I accepted the explanations that posters provided. But, apparently for at least one poster, simply trying to stick to the facts is antisemitic.
