Reply #65: And again, what I am asking for is the names of posters

[lastliberalintexas]

and/or links to posts where DUers have actually *supported and cheered on Hezbollah* rather than merely criticized Israel. I understand that you are arguing that support for Hezbollah would mean support for Nasrallah's statements, and though that is also a logical leap, it is at least much more credible than the leap from criticism of Israel = support for Hezbollah. I'd be very, very interested to see if ANY posters have actually said anything in support of HEZBOLLAH.

Criticizing the nation of Israel and/or voicing sympathy/support for the civilians caught in the middle is NOT, I repeat, NOT the same damn thing as supporting Hezbollah.

So are there any links to posters who have actually done what you've accused them of? Or was your post merely hyperbolic spin in order to confuse the issues involved in this situation? Throwing in a few horrid statements from one of the "leaders" involved in this conflict and trying to paint any critic of Israel with that brush is idiotic and wrong, and it takes away from the discussions of the REAL issues involved.

And of course it also deflects attention away from the children who are being killed. Can't have people worried about that, can we?
