Well, there's a balance of this inflammatory rhetoric on both sides.

To me, that merely indicates how entrenched the opposing points of view are, not a unique indictment of either side...

It's great news for no one....in fact, it's not news at all.

Re: Great News For Peace Leftists!

New York 2031




A father and his son are walking the Manhattan streets when the father stops at a vacant lot takes a deep breath and tells his son: “To think that at one time here on this very lot stood the Twin Towers.”





The son looks at his father and asked: “Dad, what are the Twin Towers?”





Father says: “My dear son, the Twin Towers were two tremendously tall buildings with lots of offices that were the heart of the United States, but around 30 years ago, several Arabs destroyed the buildings.”





The boy thinks for a minute and then asks his father: “Daddy, what are Arabs?”

That's a cut-and-paste w/o any of your own content.

Do you agree with the implied notion in the cut-and-pasted joke? Any opinion?

LOL ... what a loony piece of idiocy and lying that pdf is.

I tell you what, Rude Boy, you and skeptic1 try taking your garbage 'history' and 'Fact Sheets' over here ...

Race & History - MootSF

... and see how well it flies. There are quite a few people over there who can rip your very first 'Fact Sheet' to shreds, and enjoy doing it with flair and ease. Not that you will but just to let you know there are sites that cater to exploding nonsense like your's and skeptic's. they are a very liberal bunch running the site as well, so don't even think of claiming they're 'neo-cons' or the usual excuses.

Oh, sure it is. Anything on Arab TV is great news for 'progressives' and neo-Nazis.

All this complaining about intolerance really turns me on.

I have his books, so go ahead and point out what he 'copied wholesale from Joan Peters' ...
I have read The Case for Israel and it was a total sham. You can see this debate (includes video and audio) where Professor Finkelstein cites several places where the passages from both books are identical, including the placement of the elypsees. His information was inaccurate, in fact, so inaccurate that he attributes the phrase "Turnspeak" to George Orwell, something Peters does in her book. How would a Harvard professor like Dershowitz think that "Turnspeak" was written by George Orwell? - well, he wouldn't have a clue if he's copying wholecloth from another book.

By his own standards, he's a plagiarist and a fraud.

Very convenient. Accuse the otherside of not wanting peace and then when they offer it, just say it's PR garbage.

Re: Great News For Peace Leftists!

Socialism and Anarchy are complete opposites. Anarchy is on the far right end of the spectrum.

Ahhh, I see you've found another plagiarist.

In other words, you can't do it.

I have yet to see anyone cheering or even affirming the inflammatory statements.

I would think that if this is good news for anyone, it's extremists who see the ideal solution as the extermination/expulsion of one side or the other......So I'd argue that this is a win for people who don't want peace.... and a loss for people who do.
