He also conveniently ignores Judaism, at least Zionism. NuclearDem Apr 2014 #56

Zionism? What are you trying to say about Maher? nt alp227 Apr 2014 #109

I'm saying he either blatantly ignores or apologizes for Israeli war crimes NuclearDem Apr 2014 #112

OK, is that all? Or because Maher is Jewish, is there something you're hiding re Zionism? nt alp227 Apr 2014 #116
