My vision of the God-given "exceptionalism" of Israel's right to ethnically cleanse Palestinians? When did I ever say anything remotely like that? Never, that's when.

But then, nothing else about that statement is any less untrue. Israel has no policy of cleansing Palestinians to build new settlements. God given or otherwise.

In fact, Netanyahu has yet to build even a single new settlement at all. Parts of a settlement Israel's courts deemed to have been built on private Palestinian owned land were demolished. Perhaps you're thinking of that. Or confusing Netanyahu's expansion of existing settlements with building new ones. There's a big difference between the two.

Either way, Palestinians are not being cleansed to make room for them... or are even being cleansed at all in fact. You just posted conspiracy theories entirely lacking any kernel of truth. They're outright fabrications.

So you asked how looney they are? They're outright lies is what they are. My question to you is, are you aware that your posts are completely untrue when you write them? Or are you just willing to believe anything you hear as long as it is anti-Israel?
