This board banned me for a week because of my aggressive and insulting tone. I changed my handle and removed the insulting tone.

You are free to post as you wish, but I remember you were the one who objected to my previous tone. You even lectured me about it.

Explain the difference.

I'll repeat what I said above. Adding your distinction makes no difference

----

As a citizen, you bear the responsibility and the consequence of your government's actions, whether a law they pass or a war they start.

And again ....

I also understand your absolute necessity for you to find moral equivalence. You're not going to get it.

I can lead you to water, but I can't make you drink.  Sorry, I don't have time to explain simple logic to someone who isn't interested, or isn't interested in having a reasonable discussion.

Of course, a right-leaning source is going to point out the hypocrisy and inconsistency at that Washington Post;  do you expect this from another progressive anti-Isreal source like the New York Times or the BBC?

Are you not the least concerned about their bias and question them as an independent and neutral news source?

Speaking of the New York Times ... do you also find this delicious icing on the cake for your worldview?

Uh...no kidding to all of this.  But that's not exactly what you said, so once again you're shifting goalposts


You keep saying this, but I don't think you have any idea what it means. No one is trying to find moral equivalence. We're trying to correct your obvious factual errors and leaps in logic.


Again, you show your conceit. Your opinion is the only correct one, and everyone who disagrees with you is committing an obvious factual error.

Are you incapable of seeing this?

You have defined reasonable discussion. as agree with my opinion and accept it as an "obvious fact."

Uh no. Throughout the entirely of this topic you have made factual errors, and when those are pointed out to you, you simply ignore that and go out and made some more.

If you think I'm showing conceit...well you are probably correct. There is nothing worse than someone who insists he is correct, and when he is shown that is definitely NOT the case, just plows ahead with obvious leaps in logic.

So not only are you not very serious, you are either blatantly dishonest and/or kinda dumb.

I can't have a reasonable discussion, so I'm going to label you a clown.  Because you're not a serious person.

He doesn't understand the meaning of words and his "logic" is hilariously, pathetically awful. Honestly not sure what point there is to engaging with his ranting.

Isrealbhas a ceasefire so civilians can leave.  Hamas fires on the civilians attempting to leave.

Harrowing video shows Palestinian civilians being shot at — apparently by Hamas snipers — while trying to flee a pediatric cancer hospital where terrorists have barricaded themselves against the ongoing ground assault by Israeli forces in the Gaza Strip.

Footage posted on X Friday shows families walking onto a side street waving white flags before gunfire is heard, sending the crowd scrambling for shelter while a child can be heard crying.

I saw what Brandeis did. I think it was a mistake. It may feel good now, but when that student org successfully sues them for hundreds of thousands of dollars it's going to feel really sh*tty knowing that a university with rich history of educating and graduating Jewish students is funding a group that espouses hate against the Jewish people. You've recently expressed admiration for FIRE, they are condemning the decision as illegal: https://www.thefire.org/news/free-speech-promises-be-damned-brandeis-bans-students-justice-palestine. Most reactions I've seen from those in the legal world have criticized the decision.

All universities COULD choose to violate the first amendment and punish students for protected free speech.  But doing so is short sighted. Sure you stop the immediate hate speech but eventually a judge will reverse any decision you make and you end up funding a hate group. You temporarily win the battle before eventually losing the battle and the war.

So, are you advocating for the funding of antisemitic hate groups? I'm not.

I'm very happy the hate and violent speech has been silenced, but again, I'm on the fence about how this has been done.

So .. add Columbia to Brandeis that did this action. And since Harvard and Penn also signed a letter with Columbia, I expect they will do the same.

Columbia University announced on Friday that it was banning two anti-Semitic student groups on campus for the remainder of the fall term after they repeatedly violated school rules.

The private New York City school suspended Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) and Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) as official student groups in light of their recent actions on campus.

"This decision was made after the two groups repeatedly violated University policies related to holding campus events, culminating in an unauthorized event Thursday afternoon that proceeded despite warnings and included threatening rhetoric and intimidation," said Gerald Rosberg, Senior Executive Vice President of the University and Chair, Special Committee on Campus Safety.

"Suspension means the two groups will not be eligible to hold events on campus or receive University funding," he added. "Lifting the suspension will be contingent on the two groups demonstrating a commitment to compliance with University policies and engaging in consultations at a group leadership level with University officials."

Jewish Voice for Peace is an anti-Semitic organization that has held numerous anti-Israel rallies after Hamas murdered 1,400 Israelis in an unprecedented terrorist attack last month.

"Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) is a radical anti-Israel and anti-Zionist activist group that advocates for the boycott of Israel and eradication of Zionism," according to the ADL, which adds that they have "expressed support for violence and, occasionally, classic antisemitic tropes."

Students for Justice in Palestine has "explicitly endorsed the actions of Hamas and their armed attacks on Israeli civilians and voiced an increasingly radical call for confronting and 'dismantling' Zionism on U.S. college campuses," the ADL noted.

Dry up the money to these schools. While foreign students pay full boat tuition, pretty sure they're penny pinchers when it come to donations following graduation, aina?
