Speaking of ignorance...
Regurgitating rancid old Soviet propaganda about Israel isn't going to score points around here. Especially now.
All it does is show you as yet another person who doesn't really care about Palestinians (who did elect Hamas in 2006) or Jews.
Israel has democratic elections, sometimes too many of them.
Neither Palestinian state has had an election since 2006.
The person who spewed that BS hasn't said a word here over the last 72hrs about whole families of Jews being slaughtered in their homes, Holocaust survivors being kidnapped and tortured, and peace activists at a music festival being hunted down and raped to death.
But Israel answers back and all of a sudden it's "oh those poor Palestinians!"
Those poor Palestinians are cheering and handing out sweets in celebration of this latest attack on Jews.
@Render Isn't it amazing?
Reminds me of when I was told how "evil" I was by people that had NEVER been to the Afghan/Iraq region and didn't understand the culture, the history, or the people.
They just read something on Facebook/Twitter and took it as the only "truth" they needed to be an "expert."
Yet when I tell them about the middle-aged Afghani man that threw a land mine at his neighbor's front door because they wouldn't sell their 11-y/o daughter to him, they give me blank looks.
@Synical
The last time that I mentioned Bacha Bazi on the Hell Site somebody accused me of being homophobic.
When I responded with, "...even the Taliban tried to ban it..." they accused me of being Islamophobic and blocked me.
Some people really don't like it when it's their own oxen that's being gored.
