Re: Miss USA 2010 - Rima Fakih

So, let me get this straight - a country whose president's middle name is Hussein has chosen an Arab-American as the most beautiful lady in country! Hey - I'm sure Tom will approve, but it will be interesting to get the views of our other prominent American poster - the one and only 'event horizon'!...

Re: Hamas' View Of Holocaust

Calm down. You're the one that raised Hamas' views about the Holocaust and presented as 'fact' that they deny the Holocaust. As with my supposed Holocaust denials, it appears facts don't feature too highly in your arguments. I can't see how I'm stalking you - you're the one who accused me of 'intens...

Re: Boycotting The Boycotters

Levy's point was that those opposing boycotts against Israel should also oppose the boycotts Israel imposes.

Otherwise it would be hypocritical.

He makes a good point - and it just adds to the widely held view that bullies don't like the taste of their own medicine.

Re: Hamas' View Of Holocaust

You could try, but I guess you'd just be regurgitating what Fox and Memri put out. However, the article is by Hamas and this thread is about Hamas' view of the Holocaust and is categoric: But it should be made clear that neither Hamas nor the Palestinian government in Gaza denies the Nazi Holocaust....

Re: Boycotting The Boycotters

Who are you arguing with FD? Is Levy wrong to point out that Israel's opposition to boycotts against it is hypocritical? Or are you saying that those who call for the boycotts should be as stringent as Israel is with Gaza? I'm sure some guys here will agree with you if you take this logical line of ...

Re: Hamas' View Of Holocaust

The 2000 quote is the most damning as it clearly shows a denial of the Holocaust: This conference bears a clear Zionist goal, aimed at forging history by hiding the truth about the so-called Holocaust, which is an alleged and invented story with no basis. . . . The invention of these grand illusions...

You missed the fact that the 'author' is a Hamas spokesman. The article, was written by Hamas...

Re: Hamas' View Of Holocaust

I've also read the Guardian post - and I'm not surprised you agree with it and 'obviously' think it applies to Hamas. The quote above stands in contrast with the first article by Hamas' minister and also the article on their website from February this year. As for the Prez of Iran - it's a bit hard ...

Re: Hamas Beats And Expels Residents

Shock news - Government evicts illegal squatters from Government land! I guess had they occupied part of Israel and then evicted villagers from their lands there, that would not be such a big deal as this. The residents do have a point though - imagine Hamas' shame at doing what Israel is criticised...

Re: Hamas' View Of Holocaust

As for his stance on the Holocaust - that's for him to answer. I take him at his word that he's not anti-Semitic He is a known holocaust denier. I know, you donot consider holocaust denial as anti-semitic, I do. Yes, I know you've redefined anti-semitic to include those who only oppose Zionism and ...

Re: Hamas' View Of Holocaust

They are indeed religious Jews and have a strict interpretation of the Bible. They expect the Messiah to come and set up Israel (so pretty much agree with the US Christians who similarly think the Messiah will come and fight in Israel etc). However, my question was quite simple - do you consider the...

Neturei Karta - not Jews any more?

Yes, I consider NK anti-semitic. Notice they are not considered part of the jewish community anymore, mainly because of this.

Ok, that wasn't too painful. The NK participants who went to the Iranian conference on the Holocaust were indeed subject to a Cherem.
