Most critics have legit concerns.

As for HRW, we've been through this before. You stand with the right-wing think tanks rather than the human rights groups. We get it.


Funny how you write about people who want to "distract" from Israel's alleged "war crimes" b/c that's what you're doing here WRT Amnesty, HRW, and B'tselem.

You're well aware how they ignore/deny Hamas war crimes, as well as Fatah rockets. But this won't stop you from repeating the lie that they're credible and fair organizations. You then deflect by making bullshit claims that all the evidence I produce is rightwing. Most sources I've linked to aren't rightwing at all.

Why the lies?

Umm, yeah, anti-Muslim hatred did flare up after 9-11. DanTex Sep 2014 #2
He was implying that the actions of Jews caused a spike in anti-semitism shira Sep 2014 #6
You are misquoting him. He said that anti-Semitism flared up "in response to Israel's actions". DanTex Sep 2014 #7
Do u believe the actions of Jews cause anti-semitic attacks to spike? n/t shira Sep 2014 #9
I would put it the way he did "resulted in". DanTex Sep 2014 #11
Israel using its right to self-defense does not increase antisemitism. n/t shira Sep 2014 #13
So you think it's just a coincidence that anti-semitism flared up after the Gaza invasion? DanTex Sep 2014 #14
Anti-semites and Islamophobes need no reason for their hate attacks.... shira Sep 2014 #15
I'm asking whether you think that the correlation is coincidental or not. DanTex Sep 2014 #16
It's not coincidental. Studies show that the more hostile people are towards Israel.... shira Sep 2014 #18
OK, so if it's not coincidental, then Ken Roth was right. DanTex Sep 2014 #19
Depends on how to read Roth (causation or correlation) shira Sep 2014 #20
