Personally, I don't believe their goal is to simply kill as many Palestinians as possible, but rather that they're perfectly fine with causing deaths as part of a broader strategy to dispossess the Palestinian people of their homeland. Likud is descended from the terrorists who were directly respon... |

Are you in touch with the religious right wingers, or mostly just the gun nuts? These are two very different movements, it seems to me, although there is some overlap. The beauty of having guns be my portal into the US right is that it cuts across all the different flavors, from religious fundament... |

As I said in one of the other threads, I personally support Israel because I see them as a young and imperfect democracy that's worth saving, and I don't think that's a particularly uncommon view amongst supporters. Sure, you've got the Christian weirdos who think that it relates to the end times in... |

49 guns? Those are rookie numbers, though if he's as paranoid as he seems he might have some more buried somewhere. |

This is the consensus that has been spoon-fed to the public by politicians, educators, and pundits. See, that's where so many of you leftist types go wrong, this is like the whole "false consciousness" thing again, where you think everyone else is too stupid to genuinely hold the beliefs ... |

That seems like an awfully high number. Why would you think that? It's an easy way to score tangible advantages, particularly if you're trying to get into an elite school or get hired for a corporate job, and there's enough plausible deniability to deflect if someone actually tries to pin you down.... |

I feel like there's a clear logical fallacy at work here with people who think the Israelis are going out of their way to harm civilians, which is that the Israelis could wipe Gaza off the map in an evening if they really wanted to; that they haven't shows that killing civilians isn't their objectiv... |

Right? Or the opposite, someone you know to be poorly informed being correct by happenstance or coincidence, a sort of reverse schadenfreude where you're annoyed that they're not wrong this time. |

Are you disputing that the label is applicable, or just pointing out that labelling people based on what they support doesn't do anything to change whether or not they support it? I'll admit, I don't know how to make someone who feels ethnic cleansing is both acceptable and justified to reconsider ... |

I really don't see much enthusiasm for this sort of thing on the US right, it's not the 90s anymore. |
