26. It is NOT Islamaphobic to criticize Hizb'allah's recent actions.
Well, as sick as you are about these supposed charges of anti-Semitism, I am just as sick at the charges that "pro-Israeli" = "pro-War, pro-slaughter, anti-liberty" and that those of us who are "pro-Israelis" are really just "freepers, agents for (AIPAC, PNAC, KNICK-KNACK POTTYWACK), kool-aid drinkers, or moles/trolls!" Of course, I am also sick of people who are too blind to see that some anti-Israeli comments are based in anti-Semitic rhetoric!

You know what I hate, is when Israelis and their supporters are called Nazis, much like you implied in your post! So, "pro-Israelis" aren't the only ones around here with "jerky knee" syndrome! I have seen MORE people try to shut down conversation by attacking the poster, not the post. Or, the "oh boo-hoo, I'll be called an anti-Semite if I speak against Israel," then proceed with an anti-Israeli screed; therefore any pro-Israel that comes along and challenges them gets branded as a user of the anti-Semite charge.

It plays both ways!
