Palestine - The twice-promised land

When in one of your posts around this attack you posted 
never again
clearly referring to the holocaust 

What you weren’t referring to the holocaust?

Yes, I can understand why so many people are demonstrating against the way Israel are going about destroying Hamas, what I can't understand is the lack of response by the public against the massacre Hamas deliberately imposed upon unarmed Israeli civilians.

Why didn't the Arab world turn against Hamas is the question for me. Is the Arab world anti-Semitic, was it already anti-Semitic before the decision by the Israelis to destroy Hamas?  

I didn’t say it wasn’t reasonable to say never again,my point was to Pacifico (and others) that there is a move prevalent on here to dismiss any alternative and that the deification of Israel is not to be challenged because it’s irrelevant,not on topic or up for discussion and any attempt to counter makes you anti Semitic.

Am I? No not really since it wasn’t me that mentioned it Steve did,however you have picked me up when I’ve referenced other attacks terrorist or otherwise.

What I was doing was pointing out the flaws in your reply to him and myself previously and you do the very same thing and refer to past events when it suits your argument which rather destroys your point.

Well as you cannot remember exactly what I said and the context it was said in, I dont see how you can make any determination at all.

FWIW I'm still waiting for someone (anyone?) to explain what relevance deir Yassin has to the situation today. Perhaps the question is too hard.

I know the Jews needed to defend themselves. I have not criticised them for that. I have criticised a few extremists amongst them for committing massacres of civilians, notably at Deir Yassin. The fact that I fail to see the plight of the Jews as a justification for committing massacres does not make me an anti-semite, and if you think it does go and give your head a wobble and wake up to your own hopeless bias. Anyone seeking to defend one sides massacres of the civilians of another side is clearly biased. And no better than those seeking to justify the massacre committed by Hamas and citing the plight of the Palestinians as justification.

If you were even capable of demonstrating the merest modicum of insight into your own bias you might begin to understand that.

I condemn the actions of Palestinian extremists in massacring Jewish civilians, whilst citing as justification the plight of the Palestinians.

I also condemn the actions of extremist Jews in massacring Arab civilians, whilst citing as justification the plight of the Jews.

Any unbiased person can see that both are equally wrong. You however seem to think such conduct is ok when it is your own chosen side doing it. Your bias is so laughably obvious that your inability to see it is actually rather comical. If you don't even understand your own thinking, you are never going to persuade many others.
