There were lots of posts deleted from Rense in the past.

I see no problem posting from the New York Times or Washington post or The Advocate .

Not sure exactly what your trying to say here. ?

I support the democratic parties views on Israel -100% on this Democratic Party supporting website . Can't say that's the case for over half the people posting in this group. What's your point?
