Kerry keeps dancing around the fact that no "law" can have the status of justice or of international law if it specifies that any ethnic group is above anyone else among the world's 7 billion human beings. None. Not any. Not even if the blasphemous claim is made that God chose it. Not even if the sirs of any nation or nations write documents or pass any resolutions giving it special status. Anywhere. Every time John Kerry or Hilary Clinton or anyone else caves in to special pleaders for international recognition of racist laws he or she will be called out on it. This includes the special pleader who writes racist pleas to OLO. Learn from the Boers, Mr Singer, whose racist state seemed set in stone until the anger of its victims and the scorn of the world brought it down in a heap.

"Maintaining commitments to long standing allies apparently now plays second fiddle to American business enterprises earning international dollars."

Are you really that naive/stupid?
America worships the dollar above all else. Always has.

Does your hatred of the Jewish State extend to an identical hatred for the 56 Islamic States that exist among the world's 7 billion human beings?

Their objectives as expressed in the OIC Charter of which they are members include:

"to be guided by the noble Islamic values of unity and fraternity, and affirming the essentiality of promoting and consolidating the unity and solidarity among the Member States in securing their common interests at the international arena;

to preserve and promote the lofty Islamic values of peace, compassion, tolerance, equality, justice and human dignity;

to endeavour to work for revitalizing Islam’s pioneering role in the world while ensuring sustainable development, progress and prosperity for the peoples of Member States;

to enhance and strengthen the bond of unity and solidarity among the Muslim peoples and Member States; "

Do you have one set of standards for the one Jewish State in the world and a different standard for the 56 Islamic States?

Syria for one has seen the slaughter of 140000 of its citizens over the last three years. the displacement of 3.5 million people from their homes and the creation of 2.5 million refugees.

How many posts have you made condemning Syria in the last three years - or Egypt or Yemen or Afghanistan or Libya or Iraq or Pakistan or Sudan or Iran - and are you urging that their "racist laws" and "their victims and the scorn of the world" should bring them all down in a heap?

How many Jew-hating posts have you published on OLO in that time?

You are beneath contempt.

To Mr David Singer: Islam is not a race and is not passed on genetically. You can't be born a Moslem or born a non-Moslem. Islam is a (vile) cult and can be adopted by a state as its guiding "principle" though it is much better described at http://www.meforum.org/2538/taqiyya-islam-rules-of-war (read it!) than in the smarmy sugar-coating of the OIC Charter. The racial structure of Islamic states does not require “recognition”. What the Zionists overlook is that the issues in Palestine are not between Jews and Arabs but between racially selected land thieves posing as ethnically "special" and the entire rest of the human beings on earth.

The Israel that seeks recognition as a Jewish homeland is seeking recognition that Jews who are equal before the law with everyone else in their own homelands don't really have a homeland and are entitled to grab someone else's and threaten the rest of the world with war to secure it and continually expand it. Crimes committed by Israel against its neighbours are not its main crimes but are downstream crimes flowing from the Nakba and the need to secure its ill-gotten booty at the rest of the world's expense.

I don't know enough about Mr Singer to say whether he is "one of the rest of us" but he sure goes to a lot of trouble to declare he isn't.

Islamic sources contradict your assertion that no one can be born a Moslem

The Prophet Muhammad said, "No babe is born but upon Fitra (as a Muslim). It is his parents who make him a Jew or a Christian or a Polytheist." (Sahih Muslim, Book 033, Number 6426)
Islam is the religion of all Prophets, Adam to Muhammad. Children are not born out of any sin, original, inherited or derived. They are born on the religion of their nature, i.e., Islam.

http://islam101.com/dawah/newBorn.htm

Your claim that Islam is not a religion but a vile cult is contradicted by the article you referred me to - which states:

"Islam must seem a paradoxical religion to non-Muslims. On the one hand, it is constantly being portrayed as the religion of peace; on the other, its adherents are responsible for the majority of terror attacks around the world. Apologists for Islam emphasize that it is a faith built upon high ethical standards; others stress that it is a religion of the law."

I didn't read the word "cult" anywhere in the article. Please direct me to the place where Islam is so discussed.

The Palestinian Arabs claim genetic descent from their fathers:

PLO Charter:

Article 5:

"The Palestinians are those Arab nationals who, until 1947, normally resided in Palestine regardless of whether they were evicted from it or have stayed there. Anyone born, after that date, of a Palestinian father - whether inside Palestine or outside it - is also a Palestinian."

OIC Charter - Chapter II Article 3.2 states:

"Any State, member of the United Nations, having Muslim majority and
abiding by the Charter, which submits an application for membership may join the Organisation if approved by consensus only by the Council of Foreign Ministers on the basis of the agreed criteria adopted by the Council of Foreign Ministers."

Differentiating between 56 Islamic States whose majority populations are Moslem and 1 Jewish State whose majority population is Jewish is a load of codswallop.

Rub them all out - Jewish and Moslem - or let them all exist.

Make your choice.

David Singer: A cult is a false belief system with multiple adherents. Islam is built on the claim that the Angel Gabriel dictated the Koran to Mohammed. If this claim is not true it is false. I plump for false and Mr Singer seems to opt for true. That the Koran itself is false is demonstrated in extensive detail by Raymond Ibrahim in the Taqiyya article I cited. Thus Islam is a cult whether Ibrahim chose the word or not. That it is vile is demonstrated by its history of suppression of human liberty. If there really is/was an Angel Gabriel who really did dictate the Koran to a desert murderer, then and only then is Islam not as a cult. But to allow Mr Singer his diversionary objection let’s call Islam a wheelbarrow instead.

The PLO definition of a Palestinian is reasonable though I’d quibble at “father” and “Arab”. The continuity though (individually identifiable) ancestors not living in Palestine is reasonable in the special circumstances of the Naqba). Many Palestinians though are not Arabs. A lot are Jews – Palestinan by place of birth and Jewish by ancestry.

“How many Jew-hating posts have you published on OLO in that time?” Easy: None. Can this special pleader identify any?

“How many posts have you made condemning Syria in the last three years (etc)?” None. The mutual slaughter of tribal savages should be suppressed if that was possible but where Zionism in a unique threat to the world is that through its corruption of mainly US and European politics it has potential, connections and will to edge us into World War III to support its racist ambitions.

#Emperor Julian

Guess I will have to add "Islam-hater" to your CV.

You now also state:

"Many Palestinians though are not Arabs. A lot are Jews – Palestinan (sic) by place of birth and Jewish by ancestry."

Your mate Abbas and the PLO do not agree with you - as Article 1 of the PLO Charter makes clear:

"Palestine is the homeland of the Arab Palestinian people; it is an indivisible part of the Arab homeland, and the Palestinian people are an integral part of the Arab nation."

As for your display of Jew-hatred - and Islamic hatred - this effort of yours on 29 May 2013 should more than suffice:

"The snake oil is, at base, the blasphemous claim that God promised Palestine to those who invaded the territory three thousand years ago, butchering resident tribe after resident tribe and stealing their land, and the historically phoney claim that today's Jews are their descendants.

There can be no justification for a Jewish, Arab or any other state based on genetics (that includes the PLO definition) or on religious superstition as demanded by Moslem jihadists."

Live with your hatred. It will ultimately consume you

Mr Singer seems to have collapsed into incoherence.

He quotes two paragraphs I wrote in 2013, paragraphs which I would stand by today as justified in every detail, and without refuting or even rebutting them he seeks to brush them aside as "hatred". There are irrefutable sources to justify each paragraph. For the first, try the Pentateuch or the excellent summary of it at
http://www.apologeticspress.org/APContent.aspx?category=12&article=1630. [1]
For the second, try Ibrahim's article, or try the little matter of the Enlightenment.

[1] The significance of the account described by these religious kooks is that the crimes it describes as committed by an (invented) God via an (invented) "chosen people" and recorded in the Pentateuch, are the model for a present-day political creed of racial entitlement. Small wonder a "nation" crafted by such minds and based on such imaginary monsters is an insult to the decent human beings it casts as the inheritors and a danger to the world. Try reading it in detail. Twice.

#Emperor Julian

1. You referred me to the following article:

http://www.apologeticspress.org/APContent.aspx?category=12&article=1630

2. You claimed it substantiated your making the following comment:

"The significance of the account described by these religious kooks is that the crimes it describes as committed by an (invented) God via an (invented) "chosen people" and recorded in the Pentateuch, are the model for a present-day political creed of racial entitlement. Small wonder a "nation" crafted by such minds and based on such imaginary monsters is an insult to the decent human beings it casts as the inheritors and a danger to the world. Try reading it in detail. Twice."

3. I read it more than twice and would refer you to the author's conclusion:

"Though the enemies of the God of the Bible are frequently heard criticizing Israel’s conquest of Canaan, the fact is, such a conquest was in complete harmony with God’s perfectly loving, holy, and righteous nature. After patiently waiting for hundreds of years, God eventually used the Israelites to bring judgment upon myriads of wicked Canaanites. Simultaneously, He spared their children a fate much worse than physical death—the horror of growing up in a reprehensible culture and becoming like their hedonistic parents—and immediately ushered them into a pain-free, marvelous place called Paradise (Luke 16:19-31; 23:43)."

Either you or I has a screw loose - and I am certain it is not me.

4. I can't stop you being a Jew-hater or Islam hater or an enemy of God.

Just be man enough to acknowledge you are - and there are countless others like you.

Don't pretend to be what you are not.

You don't have to believe what others believe - but why do you so hate those others who choose to think differently to you?

To me you are the pits and a source of utter contempt.

Post no. 5 in response to David Singer (Gish Gallop territory): Thanks for spelling out the freakery behind all your legalistic twaddle.

#Emperor Julian

I take it by your latest inane response that my rebuttal of your posts - which I have substantiated and exposed as being full of half-truths, lies, and straw-man arguments supposedly backed up by references to articles that say completely the opposite to what you allege - has led you to decide to call it a day and submerge yourself anonymously in your Jew-hated and Islamic-hatred.

Wallow in that hatred - which has caused so much suffering in this world and is destined to do so in the future - whilst those of your ilk continue to hate the way you do.
