Again, he did not say "The jews will get what they deserved" which is the entire basis of your argument (You stating he did).

My argument is that he suggested as much in his own bigoted way, a way you are now praising as good delivery, in flagrant disregard for the fact that there was no good in those words.

You can be a powerful speaker with a bad message, that is how tyrants are made. You can't be that ignorant. He didn't suggest that at all, he used his speech to tie the Jews to different problems Germany was facing to round up support for what he later had envisioned as a final solution. There is a difference between going "You robbed my house, and because you robbed my house I am going to kill you" and "You are getting what you deserve *bam*". Not even sure why you continue to argue this when we both know you will not be able to actually produce anything besides your own opinion over his speeches. While a valid opinion is one I think is wrong and does not actually do justice to understanding exactly what Hitler did, something that needs to be understood and not ignored (as you wish to do) due to the fact that tyrants and dictators can still appear in the world.

That is a reference to a very specific perceived problem, though you obviously insist on being too ignorant to acknowledge as much.

My "You can't be ignorant" reference was to the statement that it followed. You have to resort to cutting up phrases now?

As I said, he didn't say "they were getting what they deserve" You said you had a ton of never before seen quotes that would prove me wrong, I'm still waiting.

It is sad that there are so many Neocons are in AT.

Israel do no wrong --- its the Hamas started the fight
Israelis do no wrong --- its the Palestinian are the evil doers
Jews do no wrong --- its the fault of the teenagers stone thrower
Zionist do no wrong --- because the world is antisemitic

I like to ask the Neocons in this forum & the "Common Courtesy? mod one question.

What would you do if the next door farmer neighbor throw rocks at you because you built your house on their land illegal? Do you shoot the farmer & their children because you claim that it is them that started the rock throwing?

Anyone with a common sense (or courtesy) would get a mediator to start a dialog, and return the land to the rightful owner if hope & peace is what they seek.

Such amazing foolishness. The entire US is built on someone elses land, and we are not giving it back. We were able to take it because we are stronger than those we took it from, just as the Israelis are stronger than the Palestinians. The Palestinians will never get all of their land back. They should be happy with what they have. The longer they continue their madness, the longer they will continue to be slaughtered.

Castle Doctrine in the United States

A Castle Doctrine (also known as a Castle Law or a Defense of Habitation Law) is an American legal concept derived from English Common Law, which designates one's place of residence (or, in some states, any place legally occupied, such as one's car or place of work) as a place in which one enjoys protection from illegal trespassing and violent attack. It then goes on to give a person the legal right to use deadly force to defend that place (his/her "castle"), and/or any other innocent persons legally inside it, from violent attack or an intrusion which may lead to violent attack. In a legal context, therefore, use of deadly force which actually results in death may be defended as justifiable homicide under the Castle Doctrine.

Ten Commandments

Exodus 20:2?17

13 You shall not kill

15 You shall not steal.

17 You shall not covet your neighbour?s house; you shall not covet your neighbour?s wife, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour.


Deuteronomy 5:6?21

17 You shall not kill

19 Neither shall you steal.

21 Neither shall you covet your neighbour?s wife. Neither shall you desire your neighbour?s house, or field, or male or female slave, or ox, or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbour.

What would you think of the idea of us in the US to putting Mexico under military occupation and denying civil rights to the millions of people there, and colonizing their homeland for ourselves while killing off anyone who gets in our way?

I don't see how that could be argued as anything but foolish, but that is what Israel has been doing in Palestine for decades now.

And yeah, nice addition on the Commandments there NoShangriLa. I wonder how many people understand that the might makes right argument used to justify Israel's conquest over Palestine is effectively satanism.

"Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist. Not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahlal arose in the place of Mahlul; Kibbutz Gvat in the place of Jibta; Kibbutz Sarid in the place of Huneifis; and Kefar Yehushua in the place of Tal al-Shuman. There is not a single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population."
-- David Ben Gurion, quoted in The Jewish Paradox, by Nahum Goldmann, Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1978, p. 99.

"Let us not ignore the truth among ourselves ... politically we are the aggressors and they defend themselves... The country is theirs, because they inhabit it, whereas we want to come here and settle down, and in their view we want to take away from them their country."
-- David Ben Gurion, quoted on pp 91-2 of Chomsky's Fateful Triangle, which appears in Simha Flapan's "Zionism and the Palestinians pp 141-2 citing a 1938 speech.

"This country exists as the fulfillment of a promise made by God Himself. It would be ridiculous to ask it to account for its legitimacy." And people make fun of Muslims...
-- Golda Meir, Le Monde, 15 October 1971

"It is the duty of Israeli leaders to explain to public opinion, clearly and courageously, a certain number of facts that are forgotten with time. The first of these is that there is no Zionism, colonialization, or Jewish State without the eviction of the Arabs and the expropriation of their lands."
-- Ariel Sharon, Israeli Foreign Minister, addressing a meeting of militants from the extreme right-wing Tsomet Party, Agence France Presse, November 15, 1998.

"Everybody has to move, run and grab as many (Palestinian) hilltops as they can to enlarge the (Jewish) settlements because everything we take now will stay ours...Everything we don't grab will go to them."
-- Ariel Sharon, Israeli Foreign Minister, addressing a meeting of the Tsomet Party, Agence France Presse, Nov. 15, 1998.

Out of their mouths, not mine. You're deluded if you can rationalize "Israel just wants to be left alone." I'm certain a whole bunch of Israelis might want to be left alone, but definitely not their leadership, not in the past, nor in the present.

LOL. We did take land from Mexico. Are we giving it back? No. If they tried to take it back, by launching rocket attacks against our border towns, we would slaughter them like the Israelis are slaughtering the Palestinians.

If I was born in a home 300 years after Europeans took it, am I as guilty as them? What if I live in parts of Europe that use to belong to Greek, but were taken back by the barbarians. Does Greek have a claim to my land? Should people in Mexico seek out ancestors of the Aztecs and return land to them as well? Would you support all of humanity returning to a little area in Africa (if that theory is correct of course) so that we can reverse every action in history?

You accuse people of being blind for Israel when you are just as blind to Israels plight. It is almost amusing the amount of hypocritical speak that comes from people who sympathize with Hamas, and cheer wildly at there actions. From Dahunan accusing people of being bias (as he goes off on Israels every post), TheSnowman accusing people of being close minded (When he himself fails to see that the actions of Hamas are a perfect example of the the end does not justify the means and never will) and you attempting to label people when labels fit you so perfectly.

If skimming this thread is any indication it's pretty clear there's not going to be any peace there.

Thinking otherwise is a joke. The British controlled Palestine at the time, and were limiting Jewish immigration in respect to the rights of Palestinians, so the Palestinians had obvious reason to be on the side of the British. You've got the name of one guy who had a few followers, and are trying to push that exception as if it were the rule, when the reality was quite the opposite.

What do you think helped spark the late 30's revolt? Jewish immigration into the area. Only after the revolt and realizing the true intent of Nazi Germany did the British limit jewish immigration.

The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem played a huge role in the formation of Arab nationalism. It isnt like he is a nobody.

That is an excellent article to exemplify the racist mentality that attempts to justify denying civil rights to millions of Palestinians while colonizing what little is left of their homeland out from under them.

On the flip side, here is an article on the subject of pulling the settlers out of Gaza from an Israeli who doesn't adhere to any such bigorty:

Dear Settlers --

"Dear" in the most literal sense.

At long last it must be spelled out, without hypocritical pity, without "if" and "but".


We have paid billions of shekels in order to settle you in the Gaza Strip. We have paid billions to keep you there, and most of you have lived there at our expense. We paid billions to defend you, and dozens of soldiers, male and female, lost their lives doing this. Now we are paying billions (Eight? Ten? Twelve?) to get you out of there and pay you generous compensation.

But all this is not enough. Again you are shouting. Again you are being robbed. Again we owe you much, much more. Whole stretches of the country, preferably on the sea-shore, to be especially reserved for you, so that you can resettle "as whole communities". So that you can live separately. So that you can have your own separate schools. So that you can draw government salaries as employees of the local council, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Defense.

I don't know whether the Guinness Book of Records awards a title for champions of impertinence, cheek, impudence - in short, good old Jewish chutzpah. If so, you should win it hands down. In the past we only owed each of you a luxury villa for next to nothing, as well as a source of livelihood, land and water, now it seems we owe you everything. It is your right to help yourselves from the money needed for the sick, the elderly, the handicapped, the children, the unemployed. Because you are the best of the best. Because you are holding on to the beard of the Messiah. Because you were personally chosen by God.

I might have some sympathy for your plight, if you had uttered one word of compassion for the inhabitants of the 1500 Palestinian homes that were destroyed because of you, a greater number than all the homes of the settlers that are being destroyed now. If you had expressed any compassion for the children that were evicted from their homes within half an hour, without compensation, without hotels and psychologists. For the thousands of trees uprooted in order to supply you with "security".

...

At the end of the day dude, it's Hamas who is suicide bombing.

That sets a pretty obvious standard of who the bad guys are.

You are right. They started out with throwing rock then it escalated to bombs.

Again, Jew did no wrong and all of the sudden the crazy Arab terrorists strap bomb to their body and blow themselves up at markets for fun.

PS. Which part of the Jew 10 commandments don't you understand, and which part of American Castle Law don't you understand?

We are not in the process of talking land from Mexico, while Israel is in the process of colonizing Palestine while denying civil rights to the millions of people there, and killing off anyone who gets in the way.

Do you not comprehend the difference between history and ongoing reality?

Israel does just want to be left alone!!
There is no dilusion at all!!

In fact if you were truthful you would fill in the blanks instead of your one sides account of what past Israeli leaders said!!

Israel as a nation has traded land for peace over and over and over they have been willing to do so!!


Yet invariably down the line an Arab group or a recognized Arab group breaks that Peace.....

As I stated and you know it`s the truth....
Dis-arm the arabs and 100years from now the Arabs will still be in the Middle east!
Dis -- arm the Israeli`s and 100 years from now you there will NOT be a nation of Israel anywhere to be found!...hmmm

No, really, you are. YOU'RE, not your. What about his too much?

They are well documented quotes, you can pull those books out of a library if you like. Past Israeli leaders? Ariel Sharon was the 2nd most recent PM of Israel...those don't sound like the quotes of someone who wants to be left alone at all.

Everyone can find quotes and stastics that can be used to buttress up their own arguments.
Quotes can also be selective, taken out of context, outdated or by the opposition that match up with ones perspective.
