How is any of this relevant to your original post? Was the linked posted before your implicit condoning of the act?

I somehow don't think you are outraged at the senseless murder of Israelis by their neighbors

Seems like their alot of Anti Semites on city data lately So much hatred on display AGAIN by the left
Idiotic logic. Apparently, it's OK for the Israelis to commit war-crimes, so long as their enemy does the same.

You know my father in law just turned 70. He's kind of a gruff guy (a former US Marine, actually), but now he gets a bit confused at times. But I've taught my kids to respect him, no matter how difficult it is to follow his line of reasoning. We just smile and tell him how much we admire, because really logic and reasoning are not requirements to being a good person.

Nice try. The fact is that your claim of fraud has no relevance to your original post. But go on, keep exhausting every possible manner in which to avoid actually addressing the argument.

I like that. I am secular and non practicing, but I would have had someone guard the tent for you. I never stood guard duty. Interesting post. I did not know there were that many Jews in the Corps. We have two things and common. FF and I, only one.

Well now that is a bit of Irony. O.K. Neil you have credibility with me.

I have got to go do some real work. FF and Neil have worn me down and eventhough I don't agree with them. It is hard not to like them.

They can earn Olam Haba just as easily!

We are judged on our deed, not our creed.

i am curious if you would say that about any demonstrator?

can you object to anything your own government does, but not object in other countries?

i would think that people should have a right to peaceful protest anywhere, without having to fear for their lives.

it is a sad day when that freedom disappears.

Demonstrators rarely get killed in the US, just as they rarely get killed in Israel. If you want to know what somebody thinks about their government killing their citizens (or those from other countries), you should ask an Iranian, a Syrian, A Lebanese, an Iraqi, a Yemenite, a Gazan... I could go on.

Of course we have this beautiful dozen plus page thread about this one highly unusual situation that happened in Israel.

again, flipflop, it isn't right it any country.

i think what was unusual was that the court absolved him of any guilt in the death. maybe they don't have the same charges over there, but i would think at the very least involuntary manslaughter comes to mind-but maybe governments think that people have no rights to protest.
