And here’s that other vocal advocate of exposing bad behavior, citizen Steele, delivering a stinging attack on the rioters:

“Yet when one looks at the history of the 20th century with Christians delivering the Holocaust and the genocidal mass slaughter in the Yugoslav conflict which was well into the later half of that period, all within 'modern' Europe, then any objective analysis hardly puts Islam at the head of the pack on the violence score.

I consider both Christianity and Islam as the bastard children of Judaism with all the insecurities implicit in that relationship. I think there was a very real fear dictating the movement of European Jewry after WW2 and their ultimate infliction on the Palestinians, you tell me who they feared the most in making that decision.”

(he still had to bring to Jews into somewhere!)

So why are those timid bunch now sooo front and centre on this thread –has some mischievous person substituted their Chamomile tea with a batch of Viagra ?

Wow, SPQR....you've certainly plumbed the depths with that one.

How did it go?

"After much prodding and poking Poirot offered this incisive criticism (of the rioters?)"

I'm afraid dear man that your ilk of poster does himself a disservice when he's attempting to be oh-so-clever. Let's have a look at the real impetus for that comment and perhaps other posters on this thread will glean just how disingenuous you are...

Here's a comment by Jayb relating an email he "received from a mate":

http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=5377&page=0#147456

It relates to a shopping centre which his mate had maintained was owned by a Muslim who refuse to grant permission for ANZAC badges to be sold on the premises. I thought it was typical online incendiary fodder - and when Jayb contacted the centre management he found the the story was a total fiction.

Therefore my response as in:

"I was inclined right from the moment I saw it that it was an instance of hysterical social media hype, designed to inflame feelings toward Muslims."

So pulling a comment out of a thread totally devoid of its context is a low act indeed.

...any respect I had of you, SPQR (and I did have some), just evaporated.

SPQR,

Just for your information, here's Jayb's comment about the Mt Warren Shopping Centre and his reporting that the information in the email from his mate was in Jayb's words, "crap":

http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?discussion=5377&page=0#147498

You'll note that my (notorious:) response is directly underneath Jayb's revelation, and ended with my observation that such mischievous rhetoric was "not helpful to broader dialogue".

'It's got to do with Iran':
Chief Rabbi Lord Sacks'..unguarded comments about Gaza conflict

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newsvideo/9682414/Its-got-to-do-with-Iran-Chief-Rabbi-Lord-Sacks-unguarded-comments-about-Gaza-conflict.html


The Chief Rabbi..had been asked by presenter Evans Davis for his reaction to the situation in Gaza..immediately after delivering the daily"Thought for the Day "...on Radio 4's Today.

He initially responded:\.."I think it's got to do with Iran, actually",..before being told he was live on air.

He quickly responded
by making a plea for peace saying:.."A continued prayer for peace is needed,..not only in Gaza..but the whole region".

thats why its..*allways scripted


http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2012/11/three_israelis_killed_by_hamas_rockets_as_idf_hits_dozens_of_gaza_targets.html

Britain's Chief Rabbi was off on his timing, but absolutely dead right about the meaning of this escalation in Gaza.

Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu has about 60 days before the Israeli elections to start a war against Iran, a war which the US will welcome and ultimately support militarily, because Iran refuses to sell its oil exclusively in US dollars.

He believes that being in a war against Iran at the time of the elections will cement his victory, because historically, voters don't want to switch leadership in times of war.

I would strongly suggest that he be very careful about what he wishes for here, in light of the reality that leadership in nuclear-armed Russia and China have gone on record, stating that should Iran be attacked, they will come to its defense militarily.

Iranian missile lie crumbles...Israeli TV
now saying long range missiles are HAMAS-built M-75 rockets.

prop/up-danger..Report:..
Rockets Fired from Egypt*..Hit Israel

http://www.weeklystandard.com/blogs/report-rockets-fired-egypt-hit-israel_663502.html


Two major..Israeli newspapers ...lol
are reporting..that rockets fired..>>from Egypt have hit Israel.

"Terrorists..in the Sinai Peninsula..launched rockets
into Israel Friday night,"reports the Jerusalem Post..."The rockets fell*..near..an Israeli village..on the southern border,..causing some damage,..but no injuries."

The Israeli/Haaretz reports,.l."Rockets fired..from direction of Egypt..toward Eshkol..Regional Council."FALLinLINE?.

no damage was reported,in connection..with the rocket-fire..from Egypt...SO WHY>>..?..Earlier today,..the Egyptian prime minister visited Gaza..to express solidarity with the Palestinians there..recall.."pillar_of_the_cloud"

Translation:..Israeli agents-provacateurs*..
at the porous..Sinai/Israeli border..lobbed rockets in Israel's direction..as an excuse..*for Israel to invade the Sinai,..and chomp off..some Egyptian hand/land.

the lie..obominations..selling their souls.

Palestinian Figure:..Israeli Attack/on Gaza
Initiated with US..Green Light
http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=9107119978

A prominent..Palestinian*..figure..condemned the Zionist regime's continued raids on the Gaza Strip,..and underlined..that Israel dared to attack the Palestinians..>>..only after it received the US green light.


Israeli military..LOL
confirms..rocket..lol..fired from Gaza..strikes outside Jerusalem

http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/brief-truce-quickly-collapses-as-egypts-pm-visits-gaza/2012/11/16/a10d523a-2fd9-11e2-ac4a-33b8b41fb531_story.html

"Hamas,..the Islamist group that governs Gaza,
launched a Qassam rocket..toward Jerusalem...WE*..The Israeli military..confirmed a missile/strike..outside the ancient Jewish capital;

there was no details..of the precise location
or whether anyone was injured."NOTE:..THIS QUOTE HAS ALREADY BEEN DELETED..FROM THE ONLINE WASHINGTON POST ARTICLE..(although it is being quoted..all over the net)...

And..with good reason.*

The Qassam rocket..only has a range of 7.5 miles...And it is 40 miles from Gaza to Jerusalem...So what I am starting to think is that Israel..is firing most of the long range rockets..>>to bolster the case that Iran..is involved.

Again,..the common*sense rule applies.!*!

Why would anyone in Gaza..fire an unguided rocket*
into Jerusalem..knowing that if they hit a Christian shrine
that the world's Christians..*would instantly be enraged into supporting Israel's war agenda?

Certainly Israel has a strong motive..to rocket attack Christian shrines,..but would Muslims aim at their own Al Aqsa./.Mosque and Dome of the Rock?

IT DONT MAKE SENSE*

UPDATE:..Israel is now saying the rockets
"from Gaza" have..(as usual)..hit empty fields.[iron dome..gets less that half..of the pipebombs..but 6 times the EMBEDDED HARD*press.

UPDATE/2:..Israel reported..lol..the latest missile*..suposedly..from Gaza..fell into the Mediterrainian...

Still no comment on why so many
are getting past..their very expensive Iron/Dome..WAR*system.

So Poirot, some urban myth about Islamic suppression of ANZACs is revealed to be a myth and therefore islam is vindicated and its critics confirmed as rednecks? Is that what you mean?

I think you have been given the benefit of the doubt for long enough; your belief in AGW is akin to a fashion statement and more to do with sanctimonious egotism rather than any intellectual analysis of the facts.

But as insidious as AGW belief is tolerance of islamic activism is beyond the pale; it is especially incomprehensible when it is done by women who are in every islamic country preyed upon and treated as no better than property.

To this extent Israel is a red herring, no more than a lightening rod for a self-indulgent loathing of Western culture.

Tell us Poirot, what are the good points of islam?
