I'm just saying that when you told the above poster... Shaktimaan Aug 2012 #48

The term ORIGINATES with Europaean racists! LeftishBrit Aug 2012 #9

agreed but am wondering why the expalnation? azurnoir Aug 2012 #10

The explanation was not for the poster's benefit - they're beyond help- LeftishBrit Aug 2012 #11

yes I am sure being ppred for questioning the meaning semite vs antisemite will make azurnoir Aug 2012 #12

There was no question there. King_David Aug 2012 #13

so questioning the meaning of semite vs antisemite automatically makes one an antisemite azurnoir Aug 2012 #14

You're being obtuse ... holdencaufield Aug 2012 #15

No would you like it to be? azurnoir Aug 2012 #17

Where was there a question ? King_David Aug 2012 #16

The only hate site I've 'browsed' calls itself ProSemite something or other azurnoir Aug 2012 #18

Yes neo nazi sites and far left sites too, King_David Aug 2012 #30

any 'enemy' is already a known quantity azurnoir Aug 2012 #32

No Idea about that site, King_David Aug 2012 #39

I'll take your word for it about supremist sites azurnoir Aug 2012 #40

No. But using it to imply that complaints of antisemitism aren't valid usually does LeftishBrit Aug 2012 #28

"it is deeply disturbing to see how anti-Semitism is so casually treated on some of these programs" Behind the Aegis Aug 2012 #27

My favourite bit... holdencaufield Aug 2012 #43

I find the title of OP rather interesting "during Ramadan" azurnoir Aug 2012 #31

What does that mean? oberliner Aug 2012 #33

you really don't know how Easter was often 'celebrated' in old Moscow or Russia? azurnoir Aug 2012 #34

I'm sorry but I still don't understand your point oberliner Aug 2012 #35

The title of your OP would indicate that Muslims celebrate their holidays via antisemitism azurnoir Aug 2012 #36

OK oberliner Aug 2012 #37

If that was not the intent then what was the authors purpose of including "during Ramadan" azurnoir Aug 2012 #38

Ramadam is a special time in the islamic world... pelsar Aug 2012 #47

great link Shaktimaan Aug 2012 #42
