the formation of israel atones for a crime (the crime of the romans of throwing the jews out of their own land and the crime of 1000s of pogroms and finally the holocaust) - where as the formation of the new world on the back of genocides and small pox infected blankets is ITSELF the crime.

Ahnimus wrote:"defensive"?
Ok, when I criticise Judaism or Israel and I am called a racist, that is defensive, then I defend myself against claims that I am racist. Look, I know Jews are really smart, so stop trying to confuse me!
Look, my english is not that good so I may not be clear enough. I meant that too many real cases of Anti-Semitism & Neo-Anti-Semitism can stress the organization till the point they'll start thinking almost every criticism against jews / Israel is wrong.
I think this kind of thinking only brings more damage and even creates more real Anti-Semitism.0 -

Hey Ahnimus, you sound like a real racist, anti-semetic asshole.
There is a huge difference between the adl who uses their freedom of speech to stand up for the rights and beliefs of a people who have be intolerated, abused, and enslaved for thousands of years. They are not a terrorist organization and they, like all jews, do not practice racism against arabs. They fight against terrorists and anti-semites.
The facts are that 6 million jews died in the holocaust and jews are encouraged to marry other jews as part of a moral responsibility to replenish some of that staggering loss. Not in any way because jews are racist.
You are throwing around untrue acusations and you should be embarrassed for yourself.Things change. They wont change unless you make them. The best way to change something you don't like, is to change yourself. So if you feel like you have a piece of duct tape on your mouth and you can't escape, take it off, speak up, speak your mind, shout it out, let 'em hear ya! -EV0 -

Whereas the statement that inspired this thread is indeed insanely ridiculous and foolish, I must also, once again, frown on calling out another poster in an effort to attack them. I just think it is wrong. Again, i'm not defending the statement. Its hideous. But using a statement from one thread, calling the poster out by name, and attempting to make them an object of ridicule, is, well, not so pretty either IMO."When all your friends and sedatives mean well but make it worse... better find yourself a place to level out."0 -
If anyone here is going to brand the ADL as a racist organization, I have to ask:
Would you do the same with the NAACP?0 -

Difference being that before 1947 there was no such thing as a Palestinian
After the Egyptian period, the area split into two parts, the southern part became the Kingdom of Judah and the northern part the Kingdom of Israel.
The term "Palestine" comes from the word Philistine, the name of an ethnic group which lived in the southern coast of the region. The Philistines disappeared as a distinct group by the Assyrian period.
The area was historically inhabited and ruled by Jews, Greeks, Romans, Persians, never Philistinians / Palestinians...Things change. They wont change unless you make them.

I agree. I'm not defending the statement. I've had run ins with this particular poster myself. Deal with the statement within the boundaries of the thread it was made in. Tear him apart. I don't care. But starting a new thread and calling another poster out by name is weak."When all your friends and sedatives mean well but make it worse... better find yourself a place to level out."0 -
Wow, let me just say wow.
Who knew that so many of you were so judgmental and ignorant. Hey, I'm not trying to make enemies here, but clearly criticism of Judaism and Israel is wrong, not!
Don't fear the ADL, they can only have me sentenced for 2 years in jail.
The ADL is not what you think it is, and if you do some research into it and spend some time on their site, you will see their true colours. The same applies to Israel.
Personally I don't care where the term Palestine came from, it's rather irrelevant to the fact that Arabs calling themselves Palestinians occupied the land of Palestine and was promised it by the Brittish empire long before it was given to the Zionists. You know, goths were originally a western germanic group that killed christians, not the black wearing youth of modern day.
Nothing I've said is any more racist than what Jsand or Shiraz has said about non-Jews being racist. That's a pretty broad generalization if someone is just being critical of Judaism and Israel. I hope someday you people can understand this, it's the ultimate hipocracy. The epitome of racism is a negative generalization of a race or nationality.
An example of a racist statement "All Jews are money loving theives"
An example of a critical statement "In judaism it is only ok to commit usury if the victim is not a Jew, this I think is wrong."I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire0 -
can someone clarify a rumour for me? I've been told that at Israeli airports, there are seperate lines for Jews, Arabs and "others". Fact or fiction?0

It is practiced about as widely by hardliners of any religion.Bright eyed kid: "Wow Typo Man, you're the best!"

Milestone wrote:Well, considering they aren't allowed to marry outside their own group because it will contaminate the bloodline.....sounds pretty racist to me.
We are "allowed" to marry whomever we want..........those who prefer marrying in the religion are far from racist.......get the facts straight before you make sweeping generalizations.
making ignorant sweeping statements about a religion makes you a racist.0 -
Ahnimus wrote:Thanks for bringing this issue to the forefront.
If you visit http://www.adl.org and spend some time reading thier view, you can clearly see they are racist towards arabs. The whole organization, called "The Anti-defamation League" was created to "Protect Jews from Anti-Semitism" it claims to protect Homosexuals and Women aswell. However, what it really does is label people anti-semites, it labels people that are critical of judaism or Israel. Which isn't really racism, it's criticism. There is a big difference between holocaust revisionism and the nazis that pulled the switch on the gas chambers. One is a critic and the other is a racist.
So what has happened? The ADL and many Jews like Jsand, declare that any non-Jew that fails to support Judaism or is critical of Jews and Israel is an anti-semite. Thus further drawing the distinction between Jews (God's Chosen) and Goyyim (non-Jews/Beasts). It's perfectly acceptable to these people to criticise Islam and the Arabs.
You are so ignorant....you are citing a radical group's beliefs
I am sure you can find a radical group in every religion or race.
How can anyone take you seriously if all you do is cite extreme sources.0
