Liberals, notice the muslim protestors burning the Israeli flag (radical, extremist, terrorism)

[betamanlet]

which is the symbol of Judaism, the star of david. can you imagine what would happen if people in the west started burning crescent moons?

Is this another case of one way "with freedom of expression comes responsibility to not offend" muslims but of course, it's perfectly fine for muslims to burn the symbols of other religions?

All religions suck, look what they do to mankind.

Israel kills 9 people, all hell is raised.

Muslims kill 92 people in Pakistan in the past several days in mosques and in a hospital attack, yet everyone is silent...

Why are you always posing these meaningless comparisons?

It's almost as if you are arguing, "well they do it, why shouldn't we?"

Yes, radical muslims (like all extremists), are hypocrites.

So what? I'd gladly burn an Israeli flag if I had one and post the video on CD.

Israel's flag is not a symbol of a religion, but that of a country. And who could blame the protesters for burning the Israeli flag these days...

Yes, let's pretend we shouldn't hold Israel to a higher standard than fundamentalist muslim loonies.

Liberals fear, strongly muslims and islamic violence. They want to appease them. They operate out of fear and cowardice.

The funny thing, is if Jews started trying international terrorism and started killing people left and right like muslims do, liberals would start supporting israel more, because they would fear Jews.

And here we go. Anyone that thinks Israel shouldn't be held to the same standards as any other Western democracy must hate the Jews, right?

Anyone that believes in freedom of expression - even that they don't agree with - must hate America, right?

Let me introduce you to the concept of the straw man fallacy. It seems to infect your posts pretty consistently:

Fallacy: Straw Man

The Straw Man fallacy is committed when a person simply ignores a person's actual position and substitutes a distorted, exaggerated or misrepresented version of that position. This sort of "reasoning" has the following pattern:


Person A has position X.
Person B presents position Y (which is a distorted version of X).
Person B attacks position Y.
Therefore X is false/incorrect/flawed.
This sort of "reasoning" is fallacious because attacking a distorted version of a position simply does not constitute an attack on the position itself. One might as well expect an attack on a poor drawing of a person to hurt the person.


Now, can you address the actual points made, or are you going to just keep playing these games all day?
