    Oh look, the other great Israel-is-always-wrong-and-no-one-but-me-is-enlightened stooge is running his mouth.

    Yeah, and also seemingly the only one on the board with Jewish blood. You might wanna think about that for a second.....

    Besides, I've made it clear many times that I'm not part of the "Israel is always wrong crowd" and when the Palestinian situation is discussed I am always on the fence. Ergo, you're just trolling because you can't divorce yourself from your monochromatic view of the country. If if you and Castle keep telling people what they are enough times then you'll start to believe it. You probably think I'm an Al-Qaeda member as well. :lol:

    RickDeckard, on the other hand, most certainly is in the "Israel is always wrong" camp, which a not insubstantial percentage of people would label anti-semitic.

    Well, I don't. Rick opinions on Israel are his own, and I for that reason I often don't agree and think he goes too far. But, once again, objecting to Israeli politics doesn't immediately mean someone is anti-Semitic. It's no different than saying someone is racist against Americans because they don't agree with the Obama (or any other President's) administration. Simple because there is "a not insubstantial percentage of people" who would view it so doesn't mean that they're correct or not idiots. A not insubstantial amount of people in the UK and US are out and out xenophobes. Doesn't make them right.

    Doesn't make them wrong, either, in the sense of a blanket generalization.

    Blanket generalisations are wrong on any level as they inevitably lead to misrepresentation and stereotyping.
