See what you did there? I pointed out that it's not ONLY Muslims doing terrible **** to people in the whole area, and you spun it to try and tacitly accuse me of irrational anti-Semitism. This is a wonderful straw-man smear tactic employed by the American establishment. I'm not blaming "the Jews," as you'll notice I never said that.

I DID, however, say the "Israeli Government," which is completely separate from "the Jews," is not representative of Jews as a whole, and is also composed of politicians, who are the lowest, most deceitful form of the human species. But you, instead, implied I just couldn't help but blame "the Jews."

If I feel any emotion toward an entire collective group in general called "the Jews," it's sorrow that they're the targets of radical religious violence for the actions of the rogue Israeli state over which they never had any control, who claims to represent them all.

I would also like to point out that, by making this statement, you're in the intellectual company of Osama bin-Laden and his followers.

THEY'RE the wackos that conflate the actions of the Israeli government with the intentions of Jews across the whole world, and use it as an excuse to kill them whenever they want.

I, on the other hand, distinguish between the actions of those lower than the dirt on my work boots (aka: politicians) and the people they claim to "represent."

Nice one, bin Laden.

Gee, sounds like most nations if not all fit your description so if you have no particular target (as it seems you DO) then why not include them in your descriptions instead of constantly pointing at just Israel?
See why some might "think" anti-semitism?

Because the Israeli government is the one that perpetrates the most crimes against Arabs and gets away with all of it, aside, of course, from the United States.

Remember al-Shifa in '96? The supposed chemical weapons factory that actually made veterinary pharmaceuticals in an almost entirely pastoral country? Yeah, that was in response to the fact that Mossad attempted to link the Nairobi embassy to bin-Laden led cells in Sudan allegedly producing chemical weapons. Of course the whole thing was a sham.

Or Sabra and Shatila, and how nobody was ever actually held accountable for that?

How about the fact that the U.S. was lied into war into Iraq because Ariel Sharon's political buddies wanted a friendly dictator in power who would end the Israeli boycott?

The list of savageries could go on and on... and it's largely at the behest of the Israeli and American governments, with a whole lot of French intervention over the last decade.

THAT's why I point fingers at the Israeli government. You'll notice, too, that that's why most terrorist attacks against Russia come from Chechnya and Dagestan, and not from Iraq, Syria, North Africa, etc. It's because foreign occupations cause blowback, and 90% of the current blowback (ISIS, Jabhat al-Nusra, the Northern Storm Brigade, Arar al-Sham, etc.) is the fault of the U.S. and Israeli governments and their sock puppets in Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar and the U.A.E. Oh, and the Iranians, who played Douglas Fithe and Richard Perle like the stupid fiddles they were back in '03 and ran off with all the oil in southeast Iraq.

When I say the "Israelis," the "Iranians," etc., I'm referring to the governments of those states. It's not like the Iranian people themselves payed Ahmed Chalabi to con the Office of Special Plans or something. So when I say the Israelis, or the Israeli government, I'm not talking about jews, and that should go without saying.

Kind of like how Americans didn't actually want the invasion of Iraq, they were just duped into thinking they did by the evil political apparatus that has the audacity to consider themselves our overlords.
