To put all the http://www.youtube.com anti-Isreal posts in one thread?
Please?
I don't see how we need 800 different posts.

    Fuck ... I totally realize that if I don't like the Train, I don't have to come here. But damn, a guy has to try.
    One thread, please!

    I agree... I hate when there's a million threads all relating too or about the same topic! Or even worse when one retarded poster decides to paint ball the MT with a zillion posts in one day!

    Anyhow, we get it, dude ... You hate Isreal. OK, we can all put that one to bed now.
    Ideally, in a bed that consist of exactly one thread. You can even reply to your own thread, something that Pete Yorn apparently does not preach. :)

    Ah, dammit ... I cannot tell anyone what to do. consider it a suggestion, that I maybe could have made more politely. I'll just tune up the ol' selective attention mechanism that we have all been graced with.

  • I like the you tube posts. It gives you a chance to see the stuff you'll never see on tv. As long as they are different in subjects I see no problem with posting them in different threads. As for the anti Israeli comment, I don't boil down the issue to just one angle that can be discussed. I think they were all addressing different aspects...but that's just my 2 cents. Post how you feel like posting, if the threads are unliked they will drop anyways or be deleted one. It seems more like a push to shut someone up to me.

    nope, you still don't get it.

    Well, after so many failed attempts at proving me wrong, maybe I can be excused in my ignorance. I had a open mind about Kabong's posts at one time, and that time has passed. Sorry. Maybe that view will change sometime in the future.
    And yes, I admit that I am finding myself wishing that some of this commentary would stop ("shut up", as you call it). This is because I feel that it isn't constructive at all. Lest this become a pure example of giving El Kabong the ol' kabong, there are at least two people on the rapidly pro-Isreal side doing it as well. Fanning the flames with inflammatory rhetoric that isn't going to change people's minds, it just pisses them off.

    But I suppose you see yourself so much differently? I see you as adamantly pro israel but I feel no need to start indirectly insulting your posting methods. If you don't like his post debate him or ignore him..this personal bullshit has gone too far. People are gonna do what they want here with or with out your permission. I don't see the point of this thread other than to discredit the threads he created. You fan just as many flames, my friend...you just don't see it.

    You see me as rapidly pro-Isreal? Then you don't read my posts very closely.

    And what personal bullshit? I am not insulting anyone's intelligence or even suggesting that said someone is a bad person. At the start, I asked that the board not be flooded with similar posts over and over again. Apparently that is a huge fucking crime in these parts. Excuse me, then. I take it all back, because quite frankly, I don't want to read another damn temper tantrum.

    This is true though...do it within one of those threads he posts that you don't agree with...no need to start a thread to go after a poster.

    Think what you will. I would prefer to debate topics and areas we disagree with not posters themselves but whatever works for you guys.

    OK, weird. Just who wrote that response?

    Anyhow, I apologize. The mature thing to do would have been to ignore posts that I find irritating, rather than start a new thread on the topic. I stand by what I said, but I did not intend anything to be a personal attack on anybody's character, which is why I focused on posts, at least at first.

    Yeah, that was inappropriate.

    Wouldn't most of the MT be empty then? ;-)

    Funny, I thought you were having the tantrum. I surely do wish they would diminish, though. I don't see the threads in question as similiar, if you do then fine but realize that to some these were very differing aspects of the conflict.

    Tantrum is a strong word, irritation is a better phrase for what started this thread.
    Whatever, I am tired of the damn topic. Time to move on ...

    It's actually new MT policy that Pre-emptive defensive posts are legitimate ;-)

    It does seem like a bit too much unproductive drama. but I get damn tired of seeing the same old shit here. Attack the poster nevermind the debate....and I don't see him doing it to you guys.

    The longer you keep talking, the more tempted a person gets to actually make this personal.
