Sounds similar to what Hitler once said, beeing asked about Jewish kids: They'll grow up. Man. You must be from Texas. skinnay: And you're a perfect example. Please don't ever leave texas. Bigotry on display once again. I see that you two are having trouble keeping up with the topic of the conversation here, so I'll walk you through it real slow. Here we go. The question was: "Can someone explain why this is acceptable?". My response was a theory about how that can be explained. It's an idea that has been used numerous times before in the history of genocide. Now, and here's where you two seem to have gotten lost, just because I put forth that theory here, doesn't mean that I agree with it. I'm just providing the explanation that has sometimes been used in the past, by men responsible for such massacres. The fact that it was within quotes and italicized should have been a clue for you to realize that it was an utterance from someone else, and not me. Okay, have you guys got that now? Please try and keep up better in the future. Thank you. christelsabine & skinnay: You owe me an apology. Oh, and christelsabine, you also owe Texas an apology. But I wouldn't want you to choke on it.

He was explaining that just because he said it's a possible excuse for the statement doesn't mean he agrees.

The question asked was "Can someone explain why this is acceptable". If you choose to answer a different question, say "Can someone give me an argument that might be used by a person who thought this was an acceptable statement" then you need to explain upfront that this is the question you are answering. Otherwise, guess what! People are going to think that you are answering the question that was actually asked, and they are going to respond to your post in that context. In other words, if you don't want to be misunderstood, make sure you're understood.Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cumplidor 0 #20 November 11, 2009 Quote who besides the person who said it is saying its acceptable? The folks learning from the speaker in that West Bank settlement. Youth from that Yeshiva were caught trying to set fire to Palestinian cars, beaten, ultimately leading to the Army getting them out. While the youth behavior is certainly not endorsed by Israeli government, it seems common behavior for some of the settlers. IDF also appears to do little to try to prevent the attacks, just stop them after the damage is done. Settler holds knife to IDF soldier's throat in West Bank riot Many of the settlers seem to feel like they are entitled to the land they are settling/taking? The last sentence of the first article quotes a settler saying "So we decided that for every attempt to evacuate [outpost trailers], we would exact a price throughout the area. The tiniest evacuation will result in incidents all day long, so it will be clear we don't give up easily." Didn't IDF do the same sorts of things during Op Cast Lead and afterward. Killing and wounding a disproportionate number of civilians? 400k without water. Then limiting the amount of aid that can come in? The same question would now apply also "Can someone explain to me why this is acceptable?" I wonder how folks who say they know persecution so well, can behave so much like those they despise so much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelpdiver 2 #21 November 11, 2009 Quote Many of the settlers seem to feel like they are entitled to the land they are settling/taking? They are. Spoils of war, of war started by the other side. This may not be the best way to achieve long lasting peace, if such a way exists, but taking of land has always been a part of war. Those people living in the border lands between Germany and France have changed nationalities a number of times. The settlers represent the most hawkish of Israelis and can often be at odds with their government. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
falxori 0 #22 November 11, 2009 your attemps to taint an entire nation based on the idiotic statement of a random nobody is no better than the other threads claiming all Muslims are terrorists etc, QuoteMany of the settlers seem to feel like they are entitled to the land they are settling/taking? they are entitled and they have a legitimate claim over the land. Still, the majority of Israelis believe it would be better to give some of its homeland up for peace. QuoteDidn't IDF do the same sorts of things during Op Cast Lead and afterward. Killing and wounding a disproportionate number of civilians?] I apologize that not enough Israelis were killed. I'm sure Hamas will try harder next time. Cast lead was a just operation following months of constant rocket attacks from Gaza. Palestinian civilians were also hurt because Hamas' strategy is to use them as shields. so yes, if Hamas shoots from it, its an acceptable target. QuoteI wonder how folks who say they know persecution so well, can behave so much like those they despise so much. you either don't know enough about the holocaust or you don't really know what's going on between Israel and the Palestinians. if you really can't see the difference between an ongoing land dispute (as ugly as it may be sometimes) and a deliberate and systematic, border-crossing attempt to wipe out an entire nation/race/religion that shows ignorance levels that make any discussion irrelevant.
