29. No one claims justification for anything. And not all criticism of Israel is antisemitic.

As for Israel's "bad behavior", I'll believe it when there's more credible evidence than Amira Hass' reporting. Her reporting is extremely political and no more credible than the looniest "news" reported by extreme rightwing hacks.

And Israelis wonder why so many Arabs hate them!...........n/t kayecy Jun 2012 #1
as if Israel has ever vowed, and smuggled, to annihilate Syria. nt nofurylike Jun 2012 #2
Yeah, and the Israelies loves them their Iranians and Lebanese, too. jerseyjack Jun 2012 #3
Can you elaborate on that thought? King_David Jun 2012 #4
well why don't you share your thoughts on this with us azurnoir Jun 2012 #5
looks like justification for antisemitic acts of hatred to me. n/t shira Jun 2012 #6
Is any criticism of Israel considered anti-semitic? rbixby Jun 2012 #7
not all criticism of Israel is antisemitic.... shira Jun 2012 #8
looks more like you fail to differentiate between Israel and Jews azurnoir Jun 2012 #9
True that NT rbixby Jun 2012 #10
Which Israelis wonder why Arabs hate them so much? All of them... shira Jun 2012 #11
well it becomes apparent only one group of Israeli's counts in your opinion and that group means azurnoir Jun 2012 #12
So you think there are Arab Israelis wondering why they are hated... shira Jun 2012 #14
Thanks shira you just confirmed my comment azurnoir Jun 2012 #15
So do you have evidence that Palestinians hate Israelis generally, not particularly Jews? shira Jun 2012 #16
oh I do not believe that PMW should be ignored at all and one other thing azurnoir Jun 2012 #17
"Demonize" holdencaufield Jun 2012 #18
lol n/t azurnoir Jun 2012 #19
So you don't trust PMW due to one translation of "I will be killed" vs. "I will kill"? shira Jun 2012 #23
How is it possible? Shaktimaan Jun 2012 #33
So IOW they do not target only Jews thanks n/t azurnoir Jun 2012 #34
No. Shaktimaan Jun 2012 #35
How is this a justification for Israel's bad behavior though? rbixby Jun 2012 #27
No one claims justification for anything. And not all criticism of Israel is antisemitic. shira Jun 2012 #29
That is what I thought nt King_David Jun 2012 #13
I agree with you Shira....Harassment of innocents is very likely to lead to hatred, desperation etc kayecy Jun 2012 #22
You're assuming Amira Hass is a credible, trustworthy news source. I'm not. n/t shira Jun 2012 #24
I suppose you think we should wait for the IDF investigation?...Fat chance!.......n/t kayecy Jun 2012 #26
Just as you wouldn't take extreme settler claims seriously, I don't take Amira Hass... shira Jun 2012 #28
Elaborate....isn't it obvious? kayecy Jun 2012 #20
You'd think Arabs would hate Syrians even more oberliner Jun 2012 #21
That's a rather naive question, isn't it? kayecy Jun 2012 #25
I think it's extremely insightful - and uncomfortable for many oberliner Jun 2012 #30
Mmmm......Perhaps you are being a bit too insightful.... kayecy Jun 2012 #31
Maybe so oberliner Jun 2012 #32
